so i just recieved a panflit in the mail today called the scratch and win treasure hunt and on the back side it gives you 6, 5 carded hands that can be dealt for the "winning hands" surprisingly i won! the 6 prizes were a bose home entertaiment system, a bbq set, a kitchen serving set, a digital camera, a his and her watch set or a grand prize of $10,000.. a week previously i did a servey over the phone and the lady told me i won the daily draw, sure enough the repersentative, came to my house to deliver my prize, i got to choose my prize before the demonstraion and he also gave me a few extras, i ended up purchasing the majestic vaccume, it was out of this world expensive but with life time warrenty it will last longer the any of the ones you would pay 900 for at a retail store. point being the product was very good quality and works remarkably, now that i got this panflit i called to claim my prize and they have to do yet another demo even though i have already purchased the product.. stupid but at least i get one if the 6 prizes and you dont have to purchase anything.. the sales reps are pushy but thats what makes them sales reps... i would recomend the vaccume (majestic), but with the defenders it does get pretty pricey! in case anyone from healthtek is reading these i would recomend that if your going to advertise more prizes to people you have already done the demonstration to i think its pointless and it will piss people off even more to have to watch the long a** demo all over again... anyways im in it for the free stuff and when the rep comes over again it will be erratating to watch it all over again. im already advertising your product for you, the least you can do is give me my prize and save your breath since i already own the product.... i wonder what i won! lol

As a demo rep for Health-Tek California, I can tell you that we go to (70%) warm calls where people have shown an interest.Once there, we demo the unit, hand out some collateral, try to get contact information for sales to follow up on, and try to get an intro to a (female) friend, in return for an extra $50 gift card.After we leave for our next appointment, they will receive a call from Sales; my job ends after I turn the info to Sales, and don't have personal knowledge of what happens from there.

The problem I had with this company is that they called DOZENS of times, at very inappropriate hours (like between 9-11PM). They always asked to speak to my spouse after he answered their survey, and would not say a word to me about why they were calling. If I asked if I could take a message, I was hung up on, and not just once. It came to a point where I became rude and obnoxious right back. No matter how many times I asked them to stop calling, they kept calling back until I yelled "f*ck off!" into the phone and hung up on them. Enough really is enough.As for those of you who work there, I'm sure you're not all bad. But, a lot of the comments made by "Healthtek" employees on this site are just as obnoxious as the calls themselves. IF YOU ARE PROFESSIONAL, it does not serve you well to call your criticisers "idiots" or any variation thereof. That's no way to win any customers or a good score with the BBB. It also doesn't shed a good light on you when you call down other/previous employees or b*tch about how hard your job is. Most people work at jobs they don't love, and work just as hard as you do. Have some respect for the people you're talking to, and they won't feel harassed, or like they're being pressured into a "scam". I'm sure your products really are great, but they're out of most peoples' budget. Remember that people are sensitive to pressure and will become very defensive (or offensive) when pushed, and they will NOT forget how you made them feel. If you're a salesperson and you make someone feel anything but great, they WILL complain about you to all of their friends, and not because they're b*tchy a**holes, but because they're both venting and protecting their loved ones.  This goes for everyone. Take responsibility for what you do and say, and have respect for others. It's simple.

A few weeks ago a lady came to my door and asked me to do a short survey, and after doing the survey I'll be entered into a draw for a cash prize. I didn't see the harm in it so I did it and off she went. Just recently they called and told me my name was drawn to win a prize, and i had 3 choices. I picked the
vacation for 2. After getting off the phone with her I felt really uncomfortable and realized i made a
mistake.. I read all these reviews and certainly don't like what Iv seen. There's much more negative responses than positive, which can only mean one thing. I set the appointment for tomorrow but really don't want to go through with it. I'm 19 years old going to college and currently don't have a job. There's no way I could afford to buy the products their selling. Not only will they be wasting my time, but I'll be wasting theirs as well.. So its really not worth it. The number they called from was (604) 520-1796, Im going to call in the morning and see if i can cancel this appointment and get removed off their calling list so I won't have to deal with them again. If for whatever reason I can't cancel, I won't be letting them into my house. I should of looked this up before hand, i feel bad about having to waste someones time, I know it's their job.. but their company SHOULD have more details and info about what their doing so they can avoid this type of thing. I really hope the call goes through and I won't have to deal with them in person.

I originally called this number last week in response to the job ad they had in the Province newspaper for $21.35 base agreement with $500 signing bonus, then they told me to call back on Monday because they weren't running anymore interviews. I gotta admit it sounded too good to be true so I ran the number through google and found this site. Thanks for everybody's input, I'll just avoid them all together and not bother calling them back for the "job".

Was there a Derek Smith who worked there, Nicolas?
