Vermiark service is about as good as their products...

So my wife bought a vacuum cleaner from Verimark about 9months ago. In January the thing stopped working, as instructed every time we used the vacuum I personally cleaned out the filter and everything else. Because it was still under its warranty I told my wife to take it back. Well...not only did the Verimark salesman give her excuse after excuse and it took 3months to get answer from them as I had enough and went to the salesman at our local game. After finally getting him to do his job the other guy on the verimark side said in an email that we will have to pay R450 to get the vacuum fixed (REMEMBER its still under warranty) his reason for this is because apparently with no proof ( the owners neglected to follow care instructions) and now apparently it cant be repaired...However, the salesman at the game did not mention that there are these T's&C's with the warranty, which in my opinion you have to mention! I was completely blown away by all of this, I have never come across a company so USELESS not only their sales team but their after service. They are incredibly rude towards their customers!
