This is my ONE AND ONLY online review I have EVER left with a company. I am that ticked at how our situation was handled. Regal Plastics is by far one of the worst companies we have ever dealt with. We understand proper business standards and Regal Plastics set a new low.
We purchased polygal from Regal Plastics in August 2017 from Jayson Navarro. Jayson LIED to us prior to purchasing the material and said it could be installed flat on top of our pergola. The polygal was delivered the next day with an installation manual. Upon arrival, it had dents from screws all over the sheets. I did not sign the proof of delivery paper that stated the order was complete and undamaged because they did not deliver our entire order, and because the sheets had a plastic film on them so we couldn't see any damages until that film was peeled off. When we called Jayson to inform him that the order was incomplete, Jayson accused our installer of not giving him the proper dimensions even though both our installer and myself had given Jayson the dimensions. Regal Plastics delivered the rest of our order that same morning. A couple hours later, I went out to help the installers peel off the film and noticed the damages. These were on sheets that had not been touched by anyone on our property other than the delivery person Ruben. I asked the installers if they noticed dents in any other sheets, and they said all of them. I looked at the other sheets and they all had similar damages.
I notified Jayson right away. He accused the installers of causing the damages. The situation got elevated to the branch manager Jacob Meidel. We explained there was no way the installers caused the damages because the size dents were smaller than the screw heads on our pergola. We sent them pictures of the damages showing that and invited them to our property to look at it. Jacob agreed he would come look at it but then backed out the next day. However, he agreed they would replace the polygal with undamaged sheets.
My wife had posted a review online the day of delivery. The corporate office in Irving, TX saw the review and said they would look into the situation. Shortly after the corporate office response, we got a call from Jacob threatening us that he will not replace the material if we don't remove the review online. My wife refused to remove the review until the issue was resolved but wrote an update that the company was working with us.
The installation manual stated the polygal requires at least a 10 percent pitch even though Jayson, the salesman, said it could be installed flat. I didn't know how to get a 10 percent pitch on our pergola so I asked Jacob for a list of installers that have experience with polygal. Jayson sent me a list of installers and none of them said they could install the polygal on our pergola with a 10 percent pitch because we have a window directly above the pergola.
Towards the end of September, I called Jacob and Jayson and said none of the installers said they can do it. Jayson had lied about being able to install it flat, and now it was clear we cannot use the polygal, so I asked for a refund. For the months of September, October, and November, Jayson and Jacob would not answer my phone calls and would not call me back.
Upon numerous requests, Regal Plastics will not pick up their damaged material. The only place we can store it is in our garage since they are 16 ft long by 6 ft wide, which means we have to park our vehicle outside the garage. I have not been able to park in the garage for 5 months. WHEN HURRICANE HARVEY CAME, SINCE REGAL PLASTICS WILL NOT COME AND PICK UP THEIR DAMAGED PRODUCT AND OUR GARAGE IS THE ONLY PLACE WE HAVE ROOM TO STORE IT, OUR VEHICLE WAS IN THE DRIVEWAY AND WAS FLOODED AND TOTALED!!!
Both my installer and I called the corporate office. We each spoke to a VP, though different people. I spoke to VP Ed Roland, and he forwarded my message to the VP of sales, Jayce Kalmbach. He said Jayce would call me within the hour. I waited all day and didn't receive a call. I called Ed back. Ed said he talked with Jayce and Jacob, and Jacob told them the issue is resolved. I called again and requested to speak with Jayce. To date, I still have not received a call from Jayce, the VP of sales.
I was left with no other choice. I disputed the charge through my credit card. In Regal Plastics response to my credit card dispute, they claim that we caused the damages and as proof, they included a proof of delivery listing the materials delivered. Guess what? THEY FORGED A SIGNATURE ON IT STATING IT WAS DELIVERED UNDAMAGED!!! I have no clue who signed it, nor the persons name. I DID NOT AUTHORIZE ANYONE TO SIGN ON MY BEHALF!!!! This company is full of LIARS and CROOKS, and Jayson Navarro and Jacob Meidel are the worst! If they worked for me, I would definitely fire them!!!
We will continue to fight this and elevate it, whatever it takes, until we rightfully have our money back. read more
