Someone came to our door doing an air quality survey, which took a few seconds so we did it and thought that was it. A week or so later "Healthtek Ent" started calling our land line (we don't answer numbers we don't recognize and the person for the survey never mentioned this company name). They called 16 time!! Finally I picked up and when asked why they had called so many times and never left a message she said "oh we figured nobody was home so we kept trying" and I said we didn't answer numbers we don't recognize. She then says "well I always answer the phone when it rings" in a snarky tone (good for you smarty pants). She tells me we have won a daily prize draw and give me 2 options. I ask her if we have to do anything to claim the prize and she says "oh no it's free". After deciding on a time she tells me that when the person comes they will have a product to show me and they hope that I will tell my friends about it. I said forget the gift I'm not interested if I have to listen to a product demonstration and then SHE HUNG UP ON ME!SO frustrating that they called 16 times and then this crap!

I have a complaint about the conduct of this company in N.W.B.C.  They are very high pressure sales, I was told at first that demo would only take 1 1/2 hours, the Rep came here at 11:30 a.m.  I kept telling her I had a Doctor's appointment at 2:00 p.m.  She kept saying I am just about finished and kept going  on and on, was very friendly, impressionable but kept ignoring that fact I had a Doctor's appointment.  I had to call the Doctor's office to have them delay my appointment by one hour!  They took my old Filter Queen Vacume for a discount(which shows only that it is a discount, no record at all that I even gave it to them!)  The Rep lied and told me I had 30 days to pay for the machines(vacume and air purifier) and that I had 30 days to return them if I wasn't satisfied with them!  My boyfriend was present the whole demo time so he is my witness!  I did tell Rep that it would be paid for in 10 days, then a family crisis came up which was a matter of life and death!  Another Rep told me when I called about payment that I had 30 days to pay!  I told him it would be definately be paid within the 30 days!  In total I have had to communicate with 5 or 6 different reps ...

Same Story

I got a phone call to take a survey and did so.  Then was called a few days later saying I had won a prize and they would like to deliver it and give a short demo.  I was alright with this and when the sales agent arrived I met him in the lobby of my apartment building and said go ahead and give the demo.  I explained that for security reasons I do not let strangers into my home but would listen to his pitch in the lobby.  He wanted them to come up to my apartment to phone his manager using my phone.  I had him write down the number and when I spoke to his "manager" and explained the situation the comments from the manager I got were very high pressured and along the lines of "what do you think is going to happen to you, he is harmless and of course the classic - what is your problem."  I reiterated that I was happy to see the demo in the lobby.  Then he wanted to have his salesperson come up to my apartment to use the phone.  I said I am sure he has a cell phone.  After that the "manager" swore at me and hung up.

When I went back downstairs to speak with the sales person he was gone.  This was such a waste of their time and mine.  This is not how someone runs a reputable business.

Stay away from Healthtek....I just worked there for a very short time...They expect you todo 48 appointments a month and then you get paid after the month is completed.  If youhappen to sell their overpriced machines..you have to wait 10 days, as the consumerhas 10 days to cancel..You get no gas money and basically you are being used.They make it sound so good.  Now I know why they are always hiring, it's a horribleplace to work.

ps the prize I was "selected" for was such a piece of junk I immediately placed it on the curb once the officer/salesman left. It's still there.
