5. I'm not surprised

I've dealt with them in the past, and they're scammers.

They brought us a crappy reverse osmosis system that made the water taste like chlorine. I called to complain, but they never came out to fix the issue.

Finally, I told them to come and uninstall the thing, that we weren't going to pay for it anymore. They wouldn't show up for the appointments I made, to have it uninstalled.

So I took it out myself, and called their office one last time. I said that I had removed the offending system, and I would be leaving it out on the porch the next day. I also said that I would call the bank to make sure that Culligan couldn't charge my Visa card anymore. I told them that they should come out and pick the equipment up the next day, or else risk it being stolen by a porch pirate.

They finally got off their duffs, took the junk off my porch, and stopped charging me. But it took a hell of a fight.

So I'm not surprised at all by this horrific story. Culligan scams people.
