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.

I had a similar situation with a woman who called from (604) 520-3565.  She told me I had been randomly picked and had won either a car-washing kit, a 2 night hotel stay, or a Slap Chop.  She was so convincing and I ended up picking the car-washing kit (BAD IDEA) as I just bought a new car and was looking for a brush to buy to wash it.  She called the next day and said she was early and asked if they could come 2 hours early.  I was in a bad mood and wanted to tell them where to go, but agreed politely they could come early.  She gave me my car-washing kit.  It looked like dollar store material.  So dissapointed.  As if the 2 night hotel stay would have been legit....OMG, the poor lady had a HUGE suitcase and 2 big black bags with her so-called air purifier in one and a big lamp in the other to try to show me my dust mites.  There was no labeling on the bags which I thought was suspicious.  I told her straight up I wasnt buying the product but she still wanted to demonstrate it.  My boyfriend came downstairs after about 20 minutes of her demonstrating it to me and was laughing at me.  Finally, I told her she needed to leave because I was annoyed and was not into this big black plastic eyesore that apparently will "clean" the air.  She had a black binder she kept flipping through reading word for word about the product to me.  At one point I asked her how much it was just to know, but she wouldnt tell me.  When I told her to leave, she said she had to call her boss first.  So dug out her phone and called him.  5 minutes later after sitting in my living room silently, he finally answered and wanted to talk TO ME!!!!!  OMG.  I nearly crapped my pants.  What kind of company does this??  I took the phone from her and he tried to make me feel guilty that the demonstrater was not going to get paid at all if I didnt watch the second product.  I told her to get out and stop wasting my time.  What a joke.  If I could rewind this 30 minutes of my life, I would have thrown the car-washing kit back at her when she knocked on my front door.  I am really suspicious about these freaks.  Do not let them in your house!  I am in Maple Ridge, BTW.

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 [***] 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

What a joke. Healthtek is totally dishonest!!  When I need a vacuum I el go to a store. Shame on you people.

go [***] yourself bud! get a life and better [***] job!

I got a call on my telephone asking to speak to my daughter.  I asked who it was and the girl said Healthteck.  I asked what and who the represented, and she said Healthteck.  I asked what this company did and she kept saying that she needed my name and number before she could answer any questions.  I therefore warned her that this seemed like a scam and if any further calls came to this number that I would consider harassment charges.  She stated that they are with the Better Business Bureau, if so, after reading this blog how come?   This is nothing but a scam as they do not want to give you any information and how they get the phone numbers leaves alot to be desired?  I would think that this is what should be looked into as my daughter's name is not even on this phone number as it is in my name, her mother, and her last name is not even the same as mine was she is a widow.

Take care - stay far away from this and notify all your friends to stay away.
