The Brick Returns and refunds

Order placed September for delivery on October 4th. It was explicitly stated that we would be out of the country until the third and expected the delivery on the 4th at any time. On the third, we received a phone call saying they could not deliver the product because we didn't call to confirm two days beforehand. The earliest they could deliver would be the 6th. On the 6the they delivered a broke product and when we called to return or exchange it they told us to wait 3 more days for them to pick it up and further for them to replace it. When we told them that was unacceptable, they hung up on us. Twice. Finally we requested a full refund for the still sealed bed and bed frame(with one box opened but nothing removed) for the horrible service we received, the broken product we received, and the rude words from the store manager.

They then refused to refund us in full.

Desired outcome: A full refund, and for them to pick up their products from our residence. An apology would be nice as well, as we have been sleeping on the floor for a week now.

I purchased a refrigerator on September 19th, it was the display model on the sales floor. I had to leave it unplugged for 24 hours due to it being on its side on the way home. Once we plugged it in it continued to make a chiming noise. I was unsure of why this was happening so I contacted the manufacturer. I was told it was the sensor going off due to the...

The Brick Warranty Issues

I moved into my newly built condo furnished with brand new appliances supplied by the Brick on August 16, 2022 and was given an opportunity to purchase a 4 year extended warranty for approximately $1000.00 covering all my major household appliances which I paid.

Fast forward to Sept 13, 2023 (day before my birthday) my Samsung Model#NY63T87S fan is continuously cutting in and out as well as running constantly on high at times for extended periods.

September 13, 2023 at 1536 hrs PST I contacted The Brick warranty line at [protected] mins) where I was advised it was past the 1 year mark and I would have to call [protected].

September 23, 2023 at 1541 hours PST I spoke with someone for 9 minutes where they advised they had no record of anything and were unable to help me.

September 13, 2023 at 1553 hours PST I called the Brick in Langley, looking for Sylvia Dewitt who I had purchased my extended warranty through however was not currently in office and was given another number to contact.

September 13, 2023 at 1555 hours PST, I contacted Sylvia Dewitt at [protected] where I spoke with her as she apologized for the inconvenience and sent an email cc’ing me to [protected]@thebrick.com.

September 18, 2023 at 0951 hours PST I contacted The Brick National Customer Care at [protected] only to be advised that they could not assist me and provided me with a phone number of [protected] that did not work.

September 18, 2023 at 0955 hours PST I contacted Sylvia Dewitt who again apologized and provided me with a number for Sandra Williams (Commercial Project Coordinator)

September 18, 2023 at 0956 hours PST I contacted Sandra Williams at [protected] who also apologized and cc’ing me in an email once again to [protected]@thebrick.com once again with my original invoice number 060912Z0181B along with my extended warranty invoice 071122ZWSOQ requesting them to contact me with my full name, phone number to arrange for a technician to visit.

September 20, 2023 at 1415 hours PST I still have not heard anything via phone calls or emails regarding my oven and attempted to follow up with Sylvia who was unable to answer. I then made an attempt to contact Sandra at 1416 hours who also did not answer.

September 20, 2023 at 1417 hours PST I contacted The Brick at [protected] minute call) requesting to speak with a supervisor or manager however was advised they were all in a meeting and unable. The employee was also once again unable to help me and advised he would be leaving soon and I requested him to have someone call me back after their meeting.

September 20, 2023 at 1431 hours PST I contacted The Brick Customer Care at [protected] where I spoke with a male named “Christian” however was unwilling to provide an employee number or last initial after being unable to help me as he stated the file was locked and there was someone by the name of “Franck Tako” already dealing with my file and I am to call them at [protected].

September 20, 2023 at 1439 hours PST I contacted [protected] and spoke with a female Christina who initially advised I had the wrong number when looking for help with my warranty. Upon voicing my frustration, she advised she was in claims but would try and assist me as best she could. When I advised Christina that I was referred to this number looking for a guy named Franck Tako” she advised he did not exist. Christina advised she would try and have someone contact me by 3pm PST the following day.

September 20, 2023 at 1531 hours PST I received a call back from “Hafeez” from [protected] who advised he was looking into my file as we speak and stated the next available technician he could get to me would be hopefully on Friday September 22, 2023 (unknown time) but states the technician will phone me in the morning to arrange a time.

I have googled the issue which seems to stem from a faulty thermostat containing two screws. The fact that this oven is on the higher end of appliances and being only 13 months old and already having issues speaks to the quality of appliances being sold by The Brick not to mention the Customer Service and wasted time and run around to try and get me appliance still under warranty fixed. There is a select few people such as Sylvia, Sandra and Christina that I commend for at least trying to help however I feel like the majority don’t give a f*ck and seem to pass you around person to person. I would rate The Brick’s Customer Service / Warranty a solid solid 1/10 at best.

I have since had to discard food as it has gone bad and I do not have room in my freezer, not to mention the ordering food/ eating out.

Conclusion: The Brick is quick to sell you things, however if something happens even under Warranty you’re on your own. After the time I’ve wasted being passed around person to person having to fight for something to be done for something I paid for is ridiculous in itself. My hope is that the time I have wasted writing this will save you the trouble in future. Think twice before purchasing from the Brick, they sure like to give you the run around.

I have a large folder of emails also phone calls to The Brick’s Head Office, Trans Global and King @State Insurance, to no avail. All three companies just keep passing the buck.

The Brick Item code brezbbqn queen platform base

The mattress base for the Black Hotel 2 mattress is larger than the mattress. It looks terrible and I want to return it. I have been informed by the sales person that since I opened the box, I cannot return it.

How would I know that the mattress doesn’t fit properly?

I was not informed of any return policy.

There is not anything describing the return policy on the invoice.

I did not see any return policy displayed in the store.

Sales order #08313AQCIFG

Purchased Aug 31 /2023

[protected]@shaw.ca

Desired outcome: I would like to return the base.

The Brick Elijah swivel counter-height stool

We bought our 4 Elijah Swivel Counter-Height Stool in Taupe color at Mississauga North Branch, ON, Canada on August 9, 2023. Sabrina, the salesperson fooled us as she said the Taupe stool is in faux-leather. The two stools were delivered on August 18th and we were surprised that the stools are in Linen-fabric. We called that day that we want to exchange it to black. They called the following day, August 19th and said that they will be able to deliver two stools the following week. They scheduled the delivery on August 30th and when I followed up they told me they don't have available delivery slots. I called on Sept 1st and the customer representative said that they will call me the following day to confirm the delivery on Sept 7th. Today, Sept 2nd, I received an email that there's only 1 stool available and they can delivery the four stools all together in October 2023. We have guests coming over to stay and we really need these counter-height stools. We want them to get the two stools and provide a refund for the four stools as we cannot wait any longer.

Desired outcome: I would like to return the two stools and get a full refund on the four stools that we bought from The Brick.
