Hej @IKEACanada, can you clarify whether this offer listed on your website is actually for in-store appointments? It mentions "in-store" several times but the one "in-home" mention is confusing. Thinking the "in-home" in first line of the body text is a typo.

Even tho @WalmartCanada has always sucked, at least their return policy & cust satisfaction guarantee were a silver lining. But under the guise of covid, they quietly changed their ret policy. Had a terrible experience and suffice to say my little faith in the brand has shattered

In July 2020, @Google pushed an update to @Googlenest Learning Thermostats that broke the onboard wifi on thousands of units. Waited a year for the same colour to be available on their warranty site, yet they shipped me the wrong one. Losing faith in the brand @Googlenesthelp

.@BrevilleUSA @BrevilleCanada Got a #Breville long slice toaster and will be returning it asap. Burns half the slice, gap in the heating coils make long slice feature pointless, inner coils dont turn on right away. Total garbage, lost faith in the brand.

Had 148 stars expire in September, no email reminder this time from @StarbucksCanada about expiring stars as they've sent in the past. That's basically any free drink =/ Stars shouldn't even expire anymore since they got rid of reward levels. Lost faith in the brand (yet again)

It took a global pandemic for @McDonaldsCanada drive thru to invent the pinpad-on-a-stick and I just hope they keep it long after all this is over

BetterSnapTool is probably the best #macOS app I've ever bought, only $4. Never understood why window management in macOS is so awful compared to Windows, but this tool really helps

.@Rogers You need to fix your network. My IgniteTV has been freezing constantly and internet is slow with major packet loss at the first node after my modem. Definitely losing faith in the brand

.@StarbucksCanada @Starbucks How about delaying the expiration of star rewards for a while (or entirely, since they were meant to get people to maintain their membership level (green, gold) which doesn't seem to exist anymore)?

.@BestBuyCanada Tough choice, do I go for the $8k 82" Samsung TV or opt for the 98" for the low price of $100k? Tell me this is a typo 😅

The @Spotify app with android auto is garbage, wont play a single song anymore yet @SpotifyCanada refuses to credit me for a month of premium. Tried all the troubleshooting, the app is just broken. Smh, lost faith in the brand

.@TimHortons Why can't I buy hockey cards using the mobile app or touch screens in store? Guess I'm waiting in line again =/

The @TimHortons mobile app forces users to reload their Tim's cards even when making a purchase with a credit card. This is just #assholedesign

It's unacceptable that in 2019 we are being discouraged from recycling. If China isn't taking black plastic anymore, then it's time to build that recycling infrastructure here.

.@rbcinsurance has increased its rates by ~50% for absolutely no reason other than corporate greed. Every year that I continue as a safe and more experienced driver & the value of my car depreciates, I should be paying a lower premium. My family and I will be leaving RBC asap
