i unfortunately was totally taken by this scam..and its embarrasing to admit!2 and a half yrs ago i allowed a women into my house after a phone call re. testing of my well water.Our water is horrible where i am jst south of binbrook ont.I had been trying to figure out what i was going to do as we had recently jst moved there and wasnt too sure how to go about treating well water.So naturally when they called(world wide industries hamilton)i was very receptive and them being new to the area hadnt raised any flags..atleast to me..it was close to christmas ,this hagered women shows up with a cheap knife set and takes up about an hour of my time showing me these wierd water tests with electric probes and turning sediment into solids in the water etc etc...which of course two yrs ago on market place these scams and tricks were revealed on how the tests are [***] and made tomake you believe your water is full of all this  horrible toxins..etc etc..long story short i went for it..not at first but then she went on about how close to christmas it was and that she wouldnt get paid unless she sold  some systems ..i felt bad ...so i signed..sold me a water softener and reverse osmosis..stuff was installed a few days later..At no point did anyone test the hardness in the water to dictate what size softener was required.they simply installed (as she said) theyre only unit ..which could handle any hardness..lol.. b fn [***]!!almost three yrs ltr i have an r/o unit which doesnt wrk and a sofener thats not big enough to handle the hardness...iam now starting the process to get my money back!! and if not ..mabey run a truck through there warehouse...jst kidding..

I worked for this company and underwent training with the "famous" Tyson. It is all a scam. They tell you to specifically target elders because they are more "financially secure and comfortable" when really they just use high pressure sales tactics to sell to these seniors. They duped my parents into buying a $2,500 Reverse Osmosis System off of them, luckily they are quite well off and it is more a lesson learned then a major burden for them. Although the product itself is good it is grossly overpriced and the shady sales tactics start from the first phone call. You never filled out a survey, nobody that shows up at your house can answer any real questions about water quality, the prizes they bring you are dollar store items. The $18+ an hour they offer you is only for presentations, it doesn't include the 4-5 hours a day you drive. You also do not receive payment if you are thrown out of a home during a presentation, or are declined entry to the home and they try and force you into completing three presentations a day, so you end up driving to dozens of homes until 3 let you in. Training is unpaid, and uninformative. They simply ask you to rehearse their "script" over and over again until you can regurgitate their thoughts back like a mindless drone in each home. This is the ultimate in awful job choices. Like a previous poster also stated, they do advertise they finance with TD, but only people with superb financial records are approved. Most defer to LendCare or another high interest loan company and the bill ends up far higher than previously told. But they specifically tell you in training not to mention that. I also read the few posts defending Eagle Water. Matt sounds like an ignorant child who was either totally enamoured by these ridiculous tests that he bought the BS they were selling, or was dumb enough to finance a system while he worked there so he defends his stupid decision to the death. Either way, Matt Eagle is a terrible company. I'd also bet you made nowhere near $13,000 in 3 months or you'd have been on the Eagle Sales Superstar Team, which basically means if you have the ability to coax a certain amount of people into buying this ridiculously overpriced system then you get a ring with a little Eagle on it...oooooh. The others are all eerily similar in speech as the exact script by Eagle ;) Eagle you aren't fooling anyone by copy/pasting your fabricated letters of approval onto the internet. I may also add that when looking over the letters from "satisfied Eagle customers", it seemed nearly every family wrote in the same handwriting, how odd ;) The soap package the offer as well is very very skimpy, and not nearly as large as advertised. It also often is missing pieces or is conveniently forgotten about (you'll only get it if you hound them and threaten legal action). One last comment on all those Eagle "supporters" who brag about the lifetime warranty and 37 years in the business...a few things they do not tell you are that in those 37 years they have operated under over 10 different names, and they offered this same warranty to customers under all those different names, some as recent as 4 years ago under the name "Simple H2O"...ask any of those customers how they fair when they attempt to call for service with their "lifetime warranty"...they are told the company closed and the warranty is void. The company never closed, they simply continuously change the name and reapply for a business license to avoid the bad press they receive. CBC Marketplace did a special on this company, their scare tactics and their shady business practices. The Eagle warranty offered is also only labour, parts not included. Labour to replace water filters? A three year old literally has the ability to change these filters...but you must use their proper filters or your warranty is void...did I mention their filters are $200 more expensive than a standard set of filters?With all that being said, stay away from Eagle, as someone now with knowledge in the field I can assure you that a good quality water conditioner, reverse osmosis system and home dechlorinator (the three pieces Eagle attempts to sell you) from Home Depot will save you about $10,000 all together and will work just as well as an Eagle System. It will also save you on time and headaches. Filters will be cheaper, and changing them yourself will make it far less of a hassle when they need changing.

I just got a call or a job, is this a scam??

i receiived a call from eagle water systems and they had one of  3 gifts. they wanted to test my water in told them they are con artitists their number is (905) 560-1025. in very highly encourage every one to ingore these people they are trouble with a CAPITAL T thanks

Unless you like lying to and pressuring people, especially elderly people..then go ahead, work there. Working in their call room will just stress you out, especially if your not booking any calls. Which is hard to do with a s****y gift or completely unbelievable gift (trips) for "doing" a survey..and trying to convince them to let a stranger come into their house to test their water.

Had one of the reps in my home (to sell me a hot water tank - "Ecosmart" brand).........came on Friday at 6:00 pm???  Very insistent when he came to the door, and asked me a lot of questions that really didn't relate to what they were trying to sell. The rep ended up being here for over an hour, and I was very uncomfortable about the situation at first. However, I did get a call from his manager, and ended up confirming an appointment for installation (I am realizing now that the number came up as "eagle" on my phone). The appointment was to be tonight, but they didn't show, and they didn't call to say they weren't coming...........??? I didn't give them any info. other than my phone #, but I definitely believe it's a SCAM of some kind..........
