I like Canadian Tire and I go here a lot now ever since wholesale closed.
Unfortunately, the last 2 times I've come here, I have been harassed by the Canadian Tire credit card reps. I have troubles saying "no" because I don't like being rude, so I ended up signing up the first time. Today I come back in and the same guy comes up to me, trying to upsell the credit card again. I politely said, "I already signed up for this card and I specifically remember that it was you who talked to me last time." He says "no it wasn't me I just started here. "
But I know for a fact it was him because I don't forget someone who harasses me.
After trying to be polite and say "no thank you I already have a few visas" and "I'm actually in a hurry" he keeps insisting and pretty much saying "no, you have to sign up, it's a 'great deal' and everyone says yes to it"
It seriously felt like a telephone scam with how persistent he was, especially when I would try to start walking away he would lurch at me and yell "NO MA'AM it's a great deal."
Seriously annoyed, and to get this guy off my back, I just agreed for a second time.
I get that they are doing their job but it's extremely annoying and harassment. You need to tell your card sale guys to lay off a bit because it has made me not want to go into Canadian Tire anymore.
And not only do you get harassed inside, now they have these guys outside trying to sell you expensive light cleaner.
