Buying a home with rental water heater from Enercare, Reliance or other company means that consumers will either have to pay $30-$60/month rental rate forever or pay $1000-$6000 cancellation fee in order to terminate rent if water heater was installed after Sep 15, 2010. The reason of such outrageous cancellation fee is rental agreement specifying the only option to terminate it is to buy rental water heater. Here is a way to go around it (at least to reduce consumer’s loss)
Trueler has received several complaints on companies providing rental water heaters from consumers who want to terminate rent and face over thousand dollars in cancellation fees. We’ve tried to figure out what’s happening, why this kind of unfair business is still working well in Canada, and what can be done in order to terminate it. I’m providing information here for you to decide if you wish to continue subsidizing huge corporations with unreasonably high rates or if you wish to do something about it and stop being a “silent consumer”.
Beware of this rip-off practice from Rogers with overage charges! Check your Internet usage regularly and if you ever think that it does not seem right, contact Rogers to figure out what is going on with their usage counters!

Bell is an ongoing nightmare with me, even though I have cancelled them since July. Here’s the entire story. I cancelled them on June the 30th for my home phone and internet. They told me that after a month, all the services would be cut off. WRONG!
Trueler has received complaint on World Wide Connect Calling Cards (http://www.world-wide-calling.com) purchased on one of the daily deal websites – DealTicker.com
Initial investigation showed that it is a fresh website created for featuring on daily deal websites, and itself is very suspicious. As a potential customer I would never buy any services from them and as a daily deal site (if I were one of them) I would definitely NOT advertise World Wide Connect Calling Cards.
Here is a complaint on KTTC – Key to the City Roadside Assistance (keytothecity.ca) program. So far, the customer lost this membership cost, a lot of time, and ~$300 on alternative help because this company refused to help when they were needed the most.
If you are going to deal with Marlons Butchery, Marlin’s Fish Shop, Marlon’s Meat or Marlon’s Fish please note that these names are new brands of The Butchers store in Toronto owned by Marlon Pather. The Butchers got very bad reputation in 2011 during their campaign on various daily deal sites like Buytopia, Webpiggy, DealTicker, DealGetters, DealFind and Teamsave. They are known for significantly reduced quality of the products and services. They have also unilaterally changed their terms and conditions several times making impossible to redeem coupons
Groupon featured FTD Flowers Deal prior to Valentine’s Day. This deal happened to be very unfair! Groupon admitted FTD to be featured across entire United Stated and Canada knowing that it will be a rip-off!
