Kirby Vacuum Scam
by Sue
(North Granville, NY USA)
A lady got dropped off at my door offering a free gift basket for them to come in and do a 30 minute demonstration.
I figured okay that isn't that long.
She wanted to know what kind of electronics where in my home. She wanted to use my bathroom and go through out my home. I told her no many times and she just about forced her way through. She was there for 2 hours and would not leave until her supervisor showed up.
He talked to my husband and came inside complaining. He said I need to make my husband quit smoking and get a job so we can afford a Kirby. My husband and I are both disabled and he rolls his own cigerates to cut costs down. We never let the children go without.
They demanded our checking account information and I refused to give it to them. She asked how much we made and again I would not tell her. Finally they left and were very rude to us. Telling us it is our fault for having a dirty home, because we would not buy the correct cleaner according to them.
Keep your $3,000 cleaner.
