Smart Savings Center - scam billing
I ordered a $5 book and received an email thanking me for enrolling in Smart Savings, which I did not. The email said I would be billed 29.95 a month. No where on the Hotbooksale.com site did it mention any smart savings . This is a scam site.

Ordered item from them, received incorrect item and had to send it back. Was charged a 30% restocking fee plus lost my money to send item back, not to mention my original shipping fees. If I simply didn't want the item, I'd be okay with this but Stairwarehouse made the error and basically stole money from me. I'd like to know how many other customers they have done this to.

We paid $38, 000 in cash up front for a sunroom and additon to our house, only to have it leak for weeks in our house and then Ron never paid our subcontractors CMK. They are now putting a $4000 lien on our house. Ron told CMK to go ahead and place lien on our house, he doesn't care.Ron refuses to answer phone and makes promises to pay CMK but writes hot checks instead.

He says he is a Contractor & Handyman. He also goes by the name of Hoby Handyman. He does not carry any kind of insuance, and works - as you might say - under the table. He has no tools, but tries to borrow them from customers - then will misplace them. He even does lawn work, but doesn't even own a lawn mower. He is a complete phony, he screw...

We ordered a new front door last fall (not cheap over $1000) from this company on l'Acadie Blvd in Montreal. They messed up the order; and gave us a white door instead of a black one.
