My wife has a little handheld Orek vacuum she really likes to use around the house. The kids like to walk on (or jump up and down on?) the flexible hose and it broke. It now sucks in at the broken spot when the vac is switched on. This happened on Friday.
So I call the only local shop that carries Orek parts. Leave a message Saturday. Monday comes and goes w/no returned call so I call again. Another message is left. I get to work this morning and there is a message from the place; "So sorry, don't know what happened, etc. Need to know the style vac etc. They left the message at 6:30 pm. So I call back to give them the info they need and leave ANOTHER MESSAGE. Then I call their branch 30 miles away. The lady is there, picks up and finally says "you need to bring the vac in so we can match up the hose".
Um, Okay. And WHY DIDN'T YOU JUST TELL ME THAT in a message on MONDAY???
I just cannot understand or relate to companies that so wantonly display poor service and a 'could care less' attitude!
