As for this business response, everything in it is accusations. I have a cancelled check #*** made out to National Floors dated 2/16/and the funds were removed from my personal checking account. I have not received any flooring of any kind and certainly nothing was installed in my home. Sine the company stated that I did receive such items and work was done I would like to know when this work was done and documentation to prove said work was done. This company has falsified information to you the Revdex.com. They fraudulently accused me of of a criminal action by stating I forged my own check. ( by the way I didn't even sign, my husband did) I have attached proof of the check. I made a complaint to your prestigious company on the recommendation of National Floors direct after they told me that I was going to get a refund and they never sent it. After looking into this company I have noticed they do this to numerous customers within the North East. I feel that investigations should be done on this company. Again all I am asking for is my deposit back that they stated they were sending me.Regards,

The accusations that you are making towards me as a customer is appalling My family does not wear shoes in the house, the carpet is vacuumed on a weekly basis if not more when needed There has been no damage or neglect made to the carpet My dissatisfaction with the carpet was made well aware of on day one of installation but the fact that customer service does not want to acknowledge that is a huge problemThis being the reason to file a complaint via Revdex.com months later since customer service, the installation department and management did not want to discuss this with me prior. I would like instructions/details on the next steps to submit a claim and what is covered under the warranties both with National Floors and ***

I'm not sure what can be done at this pointI was railroaded into a purchase that I did not ask forThe salesperson wrote down the incorrect dimension of wood for my floorsThe company is saying it was wrote down and that I saw this (which is not the case), so they charged a restock fee of almost $800.00, followed up by the salesman saying we have your money and there is nothing you can do about itI compromised on the cost which still cost me $which I feel is very unfairInstead of just admitting to a mistake by the sales person I am out another $I had no choice but to pay this otherwise they would not have dropped off the correct wood for my floorsBasically I have no say in the matter and was forced to pay thisThey were rude, poor quality of service, and was the most terrible experience I have ever had, and would discourage anyone from using them in the future, including myselfI am considering small claims court to get my money back - which is only $I don't think this is something that would have hurt the company just to satisfy a customers needs for something that was not their fault.

as is stated by NFD, the sales person did in fact inform me that all appliances that had water or gas lines would need to be disconnected before installationHowever nothing was said about removal of toilet, when I asked about bathroom being done I was told everything was fine in the bathroom.....nothing was said that toilet needed to be removedAs I said my concern for cost was discussed...had he told me that needed to be done I would not have gone ahead with bathroom floorHe knew my max budget, which the flooring came to almost to the dollarThe additional plumbing charge of $has put a burden on my finances, one I would not have taken on had I been given this very important omitted factAs for the initials page....salesman went line by line with me and there was nothing about toilet removal

National Floors Direct did not damage the alarm wire in Mr*** homeIt is Mr*** obligation to point out any issues like this while the installers are on-site, not one week laterFurther, Mr*** initial complaint regarding the wire indicated that it was outside of the home and not in the installation space. The installation is no longer under warrantyMr*** indicated to National Floors Direct in writing that the floor was not being cared for properlyCare instructions were provided to Mr*** at the completion of his installation and are available online from the manufacturer's websiteNeither National Floors Direct or the manufacturer of the product can warranty a product or installation that is not properly maintained

This company liesAs I stated, on this call the representative was trying to still tying schedule the installation, even though I had called earlier that day, and "successfully" cancelled my order. This representative was was belligerent, telling me it as too late to cancel my order, and when it was obvious I knew my rights and was not going to have them do the installation, hey abruptly hung up on me. Also, due the way the representative tried to deceive me, I sent a cancellation notice by certified mail later that day, not trusting that they would honor the verbal cancellation of my order they acknowledged earlier in the day The certified letter was accepted on 10/2/17. Note, their seeming rational, but grossly misstated response came days AFTER receiving my certified mail cancellation notice. Additionally, as of today, 10/13/17, I still have not received my refundBased on their response, they stated they understood I was cancelling my order on 9/29/17. They appear to be in violation of law which states that all deposits must be refund within days of cancellation. Note, also, they company stated they recorded my callat no time did they company inform me they were recording our conversation, and nor request my consent. I would like to a copy of THEIR recording forwarded to me as soon as possible, so I my review it my self and see if any laws were broken in THEIR un-consented recording of the conversation. Regards,

Procedures for final payment are clearly outlined on the front of Ms*** flooring purchase order and were confirmed by phone days prior to the scheduled installation and again the morning of installation

National Floors Direct cannot offer Mr*** any refund for his carpet installationThe work was completed in a manner consistent with industry standardsMr*** signed and initialed a pre-installation checklist when scheduling the work that is designed to manage expectations with respect
to the visibility of carpet seams"Seams cannot be invisibleFloor-covering requires seams in areas that are wider or longer than widths in which it is manufacturedSeam visibility will vary with carpet style, padding thickness, room lighting, and other external conditionsVisible seams are common with berber carpet." National Floors Direct has gone above and beyond to address Mr***'s concern with his carpet, including sending an installation team to the homeA visible seam with a carpet type that where visible seams are common does not justify a reason to request a refund

National Floors Direct will not replace Mr***'s floor using the same material without a written waiver from Mr*** acknowledging that National Floors Direct has advised Mr*** that this course of action will result in the same look he does not like. Replacing the floor with the same floor will not mitigate the waviness of the substrateNational Floors Direct has offered a good faith solution to the waviness of the flooring. Given that Mr*** acknowledged in writing prior to the initial installation or any sub-floor customization that, National Floors Direct, "only does cosmetic work, we can strengthen or patch your sub-floor and/or underlayment, but we cannot rebuild your floorThat must be done by a carpenterUpon removal of the existing floor-covering, hidden defects in the sub-floor and/or underlayment may be exposedAdditional charges may apply to bring the sub-floor and/or underlayment up to industry standards needed for installationIt is impossible to determine the condition of an existing sub-floor and/or underlayment until all the existing flooring is removed," we are unable to offer any other solution than what has been presented.National Floors Direct can replace the flooring with the same product after the waiver has been completed, or we can share - 85% of the cost increase will be paid by National Floors Direct - the cost of the product upgrade

At the request of National Floors Direct I solicited an estimate for removal of railing, reinstallation, and any necessary repair work to walls and hardwood floor where railing is anchoredI was quoted a price of $labor not including materials which may be necessary to repair damage to walls and hardwood floors and have decided that I will NOT move forward on removal of railings. I have provided copies of the agreement with national floors direct where there is no indication of railings needing to be removed prior to installation. I would request that if national floors direct does not feel they can complete installation via signed agreement that all monies be refunded. Sincerely,*** ***

Ms***'s story is anything but common...On 11/13/2014, Ms*** ordered colors of a special order commercial carpet to be installed in areas of a commercial space in ***, RIIn anticipation of the pending installation and consistent with National Floors Direct's promise of
timely & efficient service to each of its clients, the carpet was ordered from the manufacturer the following dayOver the course of the following year, National Floors Direct's customer service team communicated with Ms*** to try to schedule the installationIn August of 2015, after different scheduled appointments (canceled and rescheduled by Ms*** for numerous different reasons mostly regarding her inability to pay the balance) unable to reach Ms*** for more than months, National Floors Direct was forced to liquidate the inventory at a significant loss to make space for new inventory and attempt to mitigate its loss. On 12/15/2015, Ms*** called National Floors Direct to reinstate her orderUltimately, as a measure of good faith, National Floors Direct agreed to reinstate the order and waive any fees associated with the delay in installation and the losses incurred as a result of Ms***'s inability to communicate with National Floors Direct regarding accepting the installationNo additional monies were assessed though the agreement entered into by both parties on 11/13/2014, specifically calls for a 15% of the order total restocking fee for a situation like this. In an effort to mitigate further losses on this account, National Floors Direct required that Ms*** pay the outstanding balance on the account prior to ordering the material for her installation a second timeMs*** agreed and sent a check to National Floors Direct for the balanceNo terms of the original agreement were to be altered by either partyA check was received for the outstanding balance and an installation date was scheduled for 01/29/Based on the history of Ms***'s account, National Floors Direct took extra care in confirming the installation appointment for Ms***Our customer service team was able to connect with Ms*** multiple times by phone prior to 01/29/2016, to make sure that Ms*** was completely familiar with all arrival procedures and that the space would be sufficiently prepped for the carpet installation teamWhen our installers arrived at the jobsite to begin the work, it was immediately evident that Ms*** had completely disregarded all arrival proceduresThe original agreement calls for National Floors Direct to move "light furniture," within the spaceThe supplements further explain that our installers will not move electronics, small items, breakables, or any other debris within the spaceNational Floors Direct's installation team sent photos to the local installation manager of rooms full with thousands of documents piled chest-high, stacks of chairs, expensive dental equipment, and electronicsThe scope of the debris was overwhelming by any standardsOur installers are installers; they are not contracted to move these sort of items and Ms*** was made aware of this on multiple occasions prior to delivering the carpet on 01/29/When National Floors Direct attempted to explain to Ms***, yet again, that we would be unable to install carpeting in the conditions under which she had made the space available to us, she became irate and verbally abusiveNational Floors Direct has now ordered this material twiceNational Floors Direct has paid its installers for their attempt to install on 01/29/National Floors Direct has incurred significant losses in all of its good faith efforts to complete this installationAll that said, National Floors Direct remains ready, willing, and able to complete this project under the guidelines of the original purchase order signed on 11/13/2014, by Ms*** and our company representativeWe have the special order material at our local distribution center and will lose less money by installing the order than we would if we attempt to liquidate the merchandise yet againA refund is not possible in this caseAll we need is for Ms*** to follow the preparation guidelines that she previously agreed to so National Floors Direct can install the job

At no point prior to this response did Mr*** forward any substantiation of forwarding his cancellation paperwork in a timely manner, even when this information was requested by our customer service teamIn light of this information, National Floors Direct will issue Mr*** a refund of his depositWe apologize for any inconvenience
