Geez. I really hate to leave a negative response and it really wasn't necessary but the so-called Manager??? Insisted on being rude and yelling at me in front of other customers.
I was an employer for 28 years, a managers job is to manage, hence the term , manager. If the title was, rude-crude-and socially unacceptable, then I could understand Diana's job title better but manager she is not. It certainly is not a title that was earned for professional behavior to customers.
On 01/10/2016 I called Staples for a quote to transfer data from 3 pcs. DVD to a USB. I was quoted .25 cents. I asked, are you sure? I am Looking at the data on 1 DVD right now and it reads 4.13gb. I was assured that the most the service would cost would be $1.00 but they were closing in 30 minutes so I should bring the dvds in the morning on 01/11/2016, which I did.
Upon doing so I was told by Christine, a different salesperson that the quoted price was wrong and the cost would be a little more than $2.00. That was fine, it was actually twice the initial quote but still a good deal. I was told to leave the dvds as it would take several hours. Ok, I continued to shop at staples for other electronic devices while I waited then after about an hour, she had not yet had an opportunity to start my project so I just left.
About an hour later I received a call stating there were a lot of files on the dvds I said , I know I told you they were over 4gb each when I left them with you. She said the price may be more than what I as quoted but she had to ask her manager.
This would then be the 3rd change to a quote that each time I asked I was assured would not change. Later in the day I had received a voicemail with a quote of $100.00 dollars, yes! now it was $100.00!!!
I returned to the store with yet another employee who had no idea what was going on. I merely asked, "how could this be?, how could we go from $1.00 to $100.00?"
She asked the manager to handle the issue where I merely asked, how can this be? how can a price increase so much? That was a big deal, instead of MANAGING Diana Terry became very irate and started yelling at me in front of the other customers. I was very embarrassed, not just for myself but for them as well. We all had to go through this and it was unwarranted, it is not proper management. I am writing a letter to corporate, the BBB and probably small claims court
Because this is just NOT how business should be conducted and definitely not how a manager should manage a situation.
I always enjoyed shopping at staples, it is close to my home and I have given them thousands of dollars. In fact, I was supposed to take my phone to them for repair today but there is no way i am going back, there is no telling what this manager may do, she obviously has anger management issues. read more
