The power of Blog
Many of the hits to my blog are from people searching Yahoo! for Home Depot hot water heaters. I hope people reading about our horrible experience hurts their business. M finally had to get his credit card company to get his money back.
After several unanswered phone calls and e-mails he finally took his last option. You can complain about the interest the credit card companies charge but damn, when you say "I didn't get the product associated with this credit" they go after the bastards.
I think M was also tired of calling the Home Depot help line and getting someone in Bangalore, India. Home Depot is an Atlanta company and we are located just 50 miles north of Atlanta but the service desk is 3000 miles away.
I would flame them even more but I still shop there. We don't have a Lowes in town yet, though one is coming soon, and they have some very cute checkout girls (and some cornfed hillbilly rednecks too -- but that is beside the point).
