Complaint: [redacted] I am rejecting this response because:I did not look at any contract before I wrote my complaintIF my contract was indeed signed and in place for January 3rd, then I know we called January 5thI may not have good memory with dates, but I know for a fact I called two days into my contract to have them take it backI did utulize the option, and they told me to call the next dayBut when I did on the 6th they said I was locked in, which makes no sense because even then it was still the 3rd dayAnd yes I did sign all the papers the guy presented me but once I declined the offerHe kept pushing and pushingI declined at least four times and the guy kept creating new offersAnd I told him I never even had a downpayment to put down in the first place to initially keep the vacuumHe decided to go around that and post date a withdrawal from my boyfriends bankThis representative was relentlessI refuse to be held responsible for an item I never had the money to take in the first placeThey should have just took their item back Sincerely, [redacted]

[redacted] purchased the [redacted] on June 5th and let us know within the business days that she wanted to cancel The sales rep who sold it to her knew her person***, and did try to set up multiple appointments to meet with her and pick up the *** There were several times that the time they had set up did not work for her At one point, because the rep had driven out several times and was no longer working with our company, he asked if we could have someone else go and pick the machine up One of our senior reps went to see Ms [redacted] and spoke with her about why she wanted to cancel her purchase Ms [redacted] said they had found it cheaper online Our rep offered to match the price and Ms [redacted] stated that she would like to discuss things with her wife, and asked us to leave the machine so she could do so We did this The next few times we set up appointments, Ms [redacted] was not able to make them The time it took for us to pick up the machine from Ms [redacted] , was not due to lack of trying on our part, but due to schedule conflicts She wanted to cancel the sale We cancelled She returned the merchandise She doesn’t owe anything It seems like Ms [redacted] wants to get the product for free now, after insisting on cancelling the purchase, which we did

Revdex.com: I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID [redacted] , and find that this resolution is satisfactory to meHowever, I would like to state for the record we were given a very difficult time by GP Industries, treated rudely by the manager, was told we would have to wait for the letter as she was too busy, and and she also said "telling [redacted] that we had paid the balance was not her job." [redacted] Financial Services told us that it WAS her job to report that we had paid the settlement and should have done so at the time, not two years later, and that they could only accept a validation of debt paid from her, not from usAgain we were told we would have to wait for her to call ***, because she was very busy Instead [redacted] asked for her name and number and had to make the call themselves to ascertain that the letter was indeed valid and the debt had been settled The employees at [redacted] then made sure to fix the status on the credit reports [redacted] was very understanding and expedited the process for us Sincerely, [redacted]

[redacted] did come to the office and asked for the letter they mentioned in their complaintWhen they stopped by, the manager who handles that department was out for the weekend The following Monday when this manager was back in the office, [redacted] *** [redacted] were provided a letter written by her on our company letterhead stating that they had paid a settlement directly to our company and were considered to have a zero balance The company has also informed [redacted] that they paid a settlement directly to us In regards to the credit report being updated, that is something [redacted] will do [redacted] complaint has already been resolved

[redacted] did not purchase the equipment on February 4th as she stated in her complaint She actually purchased it on January 3, We are enclosing a copy of her contract which clearly states that she has three business days, by law, to cancel the transaction Obviously she was confused that she had days and not three As she states in her complaint, her boyfriend called on February 5th which is not two days after the sale, but At that moment the sale was finalized and the bank owns the contract, not us As you know, it is a federal law that any item purchased within the consumer’s home we have to give the customer three business days to cancel It clearly states on the contract that [redacted] signed that “To cancel this transaction, mail or deliver a signed and dated copy of this cancellation notice or any other written notice, or send a telegram, to [redacted] of Norwich at address [redacted] NOT LATER THAN MIDNIGHT OF 1/6/2016.” All those options to cancel the transaction were open to [redacted] , but she never exercised any of them If she can prove that she exercised any of those options to cancel within three business days, then we will cancel the contract It is true that [redacted] was contacted by telephone to schedule an appointment which she did However, upon arrival at the home, Connecticut State law for [redacted] Distributorships requires the representative to obtain a Demonstration Pledge signed by the consumer, that they are allowing us not just to do a cleaning, but to demonstrate the [redacted] vacuum [redacted] signed the pledge which clearly states “That you may terminate the demonstration at ANY TIME without penalty or obligation of any kind, even if the demonstration is not finished That you may ask me to leave the premises at ANY TIME, and I shall respectfully do so.” We are enclosing a copy of the Demonstration Pledge [redacted] knew she could ask the representative to leave her home at any time, but she fell in love with the product and chose to purchase it When someone purchases the machine and finances it the bank will never approve the loan and pay us unless they verify personally with the customer that they agree to all of the terms on the contract, including the cancellation date The bank, [redacted] , has it on record exactly at what time [redacted] spoke to a [redacted] representative and accepted the terms of the sale If the customer wants their payments to be taken out electronically from their account, they have to fill out the Electronic Payment Authorization at the bottom of the credit application As you can see, we are enclosing a redacted copy of the Electronic Payment Authorization, which [redacted] and her boyfriend both signed and requested for the payments of $to be electronically debited from their account beginning on 02/10/ We cannot force anyone to agree for payments to be taken out electronically, the only way the bank will is if the customer themselves filled out that information, which [redacted] and her boyfriend did We are not the one calling [redacted] four times a day, that is the bank calling her to collect the payments on which she is late The bank owns the contract now, since she financed it through them Just like if [redacted] purchased a car from a dealership and signed a contract to make monthly payments, if the payments are not made on time, the collection agency will be calling to collect the payments We cannot cancel the sale As you can see from all the enclosed paperwork, the sale was executed completely properly and by law [redacted] owes the payments to the bank, not to us It seems like [redacted] cannot make the payments which she signed up for and is looking to get out of the contract

Great vacuum No pressure to buy good deal

Love my new Kirby vacuumGreat salespeople who demo'd at my condoI just wish they had shampooed all my carpets/like they said they would before they leftWith shoulder problems now and being over it would have been nice if they had done so as I was told early in the visit they would do those carpets/rugsI finally got my coupon book yesterday but see the price promised has morphed $I guess I have to take my time now and check to see what that happenedIt would be nice to have one give you notice if the price has changed!

Complaint: ***
I am rejecting this response because:
Sincerely,
*** ***
The response from *** was untrue I have multiple text messages from the person that sold me the vacuum I made myself available every night for the entire days the machine was in my possession The sales rep did not show each time he said he would come to pick p the machine he either cancelled or did not show After several weeks another rep did come unannounced and did not offer to match the price I found online She offered a price of $financed for years at 18% I found online the *** *** the identical item for $ She offer to come back when my wife was home to demonstrate other uses of the vacuum I told the sales rep, ***, to take the machine and when she comes back on Monday she could show us the demonstration She refused to take the machine and said to keep it until Monday when she was going to demonstrate the vacuum On Monday *** did not show for the demonstration I have a voicemail the next day, Tuesday stating she apologizes for nobody showing up She then unannounced stopped at my house that Tuesday we agreed to try one more time to meet on Thursday for the demonstration I had an emergency and was minutes late, nobody showed up at my house or had left less then minutes after we scheduled to meet I am not looking to get anything free but in the contract it does state if they did not pick up the item within days then the is now free and clear of any cost I made myself available everyday for not only the days but for days and the reps did not come get the machine When I mentioned to the company it was past the days, then they decided to notify the local police to retrieve the machine at which I did return all the items The sales rep *** was the one to pick up the machine and was very rude and unprofessional I'm just looking to prove a point that if the contract that *** company wrote and signed but they still broke the contract

Complaint: [redacted]
I am rejecting this response because:I did not look at any contract before I wrote my complaint. IF my contract was indeed signed and in place for January 3rd, then I know we called January 5th. I may not have good memory with dates, but I know for a fact I called two days into my contract to have them take it back. I did utulize the option, and they told me to call the next day. But when I did on the 6th they said I was locked in, which makes no sense because even then it was still the 3rd day. And yes I did sign all the papers the guy presented me but once I declined the offer. He kept pushing and pushing. I declined at least four times and the guy kept creating new offers. And I told him I never even had a downpayment to put down in the first place to initially keep the vacuum. He decided to go around that and post date a withdrawal from my boyfriends bank. This representative was relentless. I refuse to be held responsible for an item I never had the money to take in the first place. They should have just took their item back.
Sincerely,
[redacted]

We don't know what point Ms. [redacted] is trying to prove.  She bought a [redacted], then cancelled the sale and we honored her cancellation.  She says that she is not trying to get a free [redacted], so if she's not, then what difference does it make if we picked of up merchandise on the 19th or 21st day after the sale?  It wasn't picked up by the 20th day because of scheduling issues on both ends.  Even she says in her original complaint that one of the times we were there, but she ran late; that was within the 20 days and wasn't on us.  Another time, our rep was there but Ms. [redacted] had locked herself out of the house and couldn't let us in; that was also within 20 days of the sale.  And ultimately, like Ms. [redacted] says, she's not looking to get away with a free product.

[redacted] purchased the [redacted] on June 5th and let us know within the
business days that she wanted to cancel.
The sales rep who sold it to her knew her person[redacted], and did try to set
up multiple appointments to meet with her and pick up the [redacted]. There were
several times that the time they
had set up did not work for her. At one
point, because the rep had driven out several times and was no longer working
with our company, he asked if we could have someone else go and pick the
machine up. One of our senior reps went
to see Ms[redacted] and spoke with her about why she wanted to cancel her
purchase. Ms[redacted] said they had found
it cheaper online. Our rep offered to
match the price and Ms[redacted] stated that she would like to discuss things
with her wife, and asked us to leave the machine so she could do so. We did this.
The next few times we set up appointments, Ms[redacted] was not able to
make them. The time it took for us to
pick up the machine from Ms[redacted], was not due to lack of trying on our part,
but due to schedule conflicts. She wanted
to cancel the sale. We cancelled. She returned the merchandise. She doesn't owe anything. It seems like Ms[redacted] wants to get the
product for free now, after insisting on cancelling the purchase, which we did

When [redacted] cancelled his purchase of the [redacted], because we had never been told otherwise, we assumed that he had stopped payment on his down payment check in the amount of $49.00.  He did call our office last week, and left a message that he was waiting for his refund check.  His...

call was returned, but we were unable to reach him and also left a message.  His check is being mailed out, the only reason it didn't get put in the mail last week was because we never heard back from [redacted], NOT because we were trying to avoid refunding it to him.  He cancelled his purchase and as soon as he let us know he did not stop payment on his check it has been refunded.

We apologize for contacting Ms. [redacted].  She was referred by one of her friends, and we were not aware that she does not live in CT as the number is an 860 area code.  We have pulled that referral list from our phone room and have put Ms. [redacted] on our office do not call list. ...

Again, we do apologize for contacting her.

On the retail installment contract that she signed on that date, the
entire bottom portion is dedicated to

the purchase. Ms[redacted] called our

the cancellation period, there is nothing we can do to cancel the
