Was caught at the door for an air quality survey thingey and a draw.  Was given a ticket stub (which I tossed away) and didn't give it any more thought.Was called this past week saying that I'd won either a car detailing kit or a hotel stay.  Stupidly, I chose the detailing kit and the woman on the phone made arrangements to come by 2 days later at a pre-determined time.  She asked me to confirm a) my name b) address, then hung up.The appointed day and time came and went and not a peep from them, which is totally fine with me, because as soon as I hung up the phone, I knew that I'd made a HUGE mistake, and planned on NOT being home when they arrived.They've called a few times since then, but thanks to Call Display, I've not picked up.  I am hoping that they just forget my number.

Tonight I had my first healthtek visit. They stopped by doing a door to door survey. I was pretty annoyed as he rang the door bell with my little guy sleeping. I was a bit suspicious and now that I have read all the comments I am glad we have call display because we will be using it.

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.

How completely unproffessional.  You work and represent the company in question and this is your form of response?  You're no diferent than the guy who offered me a $100.00 coupon for gas. shame on you

I made the error of actually going to the interview. I thought I was applying for the position of Office Manager. The place on Faucett in Coquitlam looked completly Fly By Night. They stuckme I a small waiting room where I had to listen to someone from upstairs storm down and scream at the top of her lungs at the receptionist asking why she didnt answer her intercom.  Then I am quickly ushered upstairs and not asked any typical interview questions, just told the base pay of $3200.00 per month  they top you up to that oevel, you have to attend all these home appointments at crazy times like 8 at night. Then told me I would have to come in for training for three days then off I go. The whole thing just felt Hinky, so I passes on the position. Then I started doinv some research. Glad I passed. These people called me on several occasions and I was disgusted by the telemarketers behaviour. There is no way I could support a company like this. Ick...

i'm sure you doubt they sell anything,and also i am sure you are a miserable and poor person,who doubts everything including your capabilities to form an opinion of your own,and yes they do make it clear on the phone that they are going to show you their product,you don't have to buy it,you were probably too busy dreaming about the free gift,not a prize that i highly doubt you could afford on your own
get a life
