Sad that the owner says he read the correspondence, but certainly could not have because comments he made in his response would be disproved in an instant!
Mr. Hyer - If you would like the real story about what played out in this month long nightmare of a saga with your "staff" that you "stand behind," feel free to reach out to me. Otherwise, I suppose history is bound to repeat itself. But you losing business due to lack of communication and professionalism on the part of your staff is certainly not my problem, you are right! What I will say is, all Kassie had to do was communicate needs, like the faucet. I had absolutely zero problems with the sinks you provide not coming with faucets. What I had a problem with was:
A. No one ever told us we needed to buy/ provide faucets until Kassie emailed asking for information on what faucets we bought. Ummm.
.. It would have been nice to know this is something you needed before we get a last minute email asking for details on this thing which no one had ever mentioned at any point.
B. But we moved past that... I clearly responded to Kassie with questions about how to move forward with providing our own sinks/ faucets. Her response was to yet again ignore my questions entirely and instead just repeat herself like a broken record. I'm not a child, I don't appreciate the fact that I continually asked simple questions of Kassie that resulted in a passive aggressive email acting like I'm an idiot and ignoring my clear-cut questions. When someone is paying upwards of $10,000 to a company for a service... Responses to simple questions are 100% warranted. Kassie either A) Can't read or more likely B) Read exactly what I asked and decided she didn't feel like she needed to grace them with an answer. Either way, my expectations are not the issue... her lack of common courtesy, professionalism, and appropriate communication is!!
I could go on and on about the numerous issues we encountered with RockTops and the complete lack of disregard to your customers that we have now seen runs rampant in your company, but I've wasted enough time and energy on this abhorrent situation. I will say this to conclude, however. As a previous business owner of over 10 years, employees make mistakes and bad reviews are inevitable, but it is how you respond to customer's grievances that matters! You had the opportunity to do your due diligence, learn from the mistakes made here, train your staff to communicate better, and reach out to the customer to resolve the issue. Yet, you decided to deny the facts here and point a finger at the customer. I suppose I shouldn't be shocked based on how others from RockTops have behaved. But, frankly I am indeed surprised that you chose to "fight" rather than just say, "I'm sorry. We will do better" and rectify the situation. So easy to do, just like answering customers questions, but not the route chosen.
For anyone reading this review, let this interaction on a public forum be all you need to know to chose another company. No one in their right mind wants to be ignored and belittled when hiring a company and spending your hard earned funds. But that is indeed the way RockTops operates from their owner to their support staff. Don't waste your time, like I did! There are too many other companies out there that will listen to your needs, answer your questions, respect your time, and truly appreciate your business! It's sad that RockTops is not among those businesses! read more
