"ACE WATER HEATERS ONLY INC."

My parents have decided to purchase a new hot water tank. It's been desperately needed to be replaced for a while. They finally do and this is what happens (as told by my brother):

Ben-Jamin says:
so the douche bag shows up at 830 this morning, not 930
Ben-Jamin says:
after he brings in the tank and takes out the old one, dad notices that the tank is dented, AND is not the one they ordered
megan. says:
nice
Ben-Jamin says:
so the tank gets installed because dad didn't notice it
Ben-Jamin says:
so dad was like WTF
Ben-Jamin says:
this isn't the tank we ordered and it's damaged
megan. says:
dented and it's the wrong one?
Ben-Jamin says:
the dude was like, a tank is a tank, it doesn't matter
Ben-Jamin says:
yeah
Ben-Jamin says:
so mom calls the company, and gets hung up on
megan. says:
holy shit
Ben-Jamin says:
and calls again, gets told that the woman doesn't have to put up with mom, and hangs up again
megan. says:
what
Ben-Jamin says:
and mom calls again to talk to the manager, so mom gets put through, hands the phone to dad, and then gets hung up on again
megan. says:
Ben-Jamin says:
meanwhile, the guy is uninstalling the tank, and was apparently furious that mom and dad didn't want the tank
Ben-Jamin says:
and said 'i only work for the company...;
Ben-Jamin says:
so then dad called back, and said 'don't you hang up on me again' and the girl was like 'too bad' and did it again
megan. says:
OH MY GOD
Ben-Jamin says:
so dad called back, and said that he was going to be calling cfcn and the bbb on monday
Ben-Jamin says:
so then he notices the dipshit outside putting the old tank back into his van, and our old tank was standing up on the sidewalk
Ben-Jamin says:
before dad could say anything to the guy, he takes off, and leaves our old tank on the ground
megan. says:
Holy fuck
Ben-Jamin says:
so then dad called the company again, and said that now that they pulled that stunt, he is definately calling cfcn and the bbb on monday and will be spreading the word around the 'big oil company' that he works at
megan. says:
what company was it?
Ben-Jamin says:
water heaters only
megan. says:
that was the name of the company?
Ben-Jamin says:
yep
megan. says:
its not on google
Ben-Jamin says:
it's not in the yellow pages either!
megan. says:
how the fuck..
Ben-Jamin says:
i have no idea how mom got their contact info
megan. says:
that is absolutely the best story i have heard all day
Ben-Jamin says:
yeah
Ben-Jamin says:
it's awesome
