“Ordered online from Rona 2 months ago. Shipped through Day and Ross. Still haven’t received the package. Nobody from Rona can assist and D&R cannot locate the package. Do not ever ever buy online from Rona as they will take your money and never refund it. They will blame the shipping company and ask you to contact them even though you are buying from Rona. Basically they will just wash their hands off.”

“Placed order on line. Got the email..can't track the order without an account Opened an on line account just to track my order No record of the oder on line..payment had been processed Tried customer service number..no direction on how to talk to a person Figured it out...'experiencing longer than normal delays' Called the pick up store..initially no record of the order...patient staff tracked it down..said it was ready Drove 30 minutes to pick.it up. Delayed due to computer system..not sure the 2 staff involved were able to key in thst the order had been.pucked up. Two stars because the staff were patient and helpful.

“What went wrong is still going wrong,their warehouse or keeping of inventory is a mess, waiting for dishwasher delivery cancelled last minute 3 times, fridge we received handle of bottom drawer broken..just absolute chaos with them..one redeeming factor has been the sales personnel who have taken care of us, they have been exceptional and are beyond frustrated as well. Incredibly poor management of their inventory”

“Horrible experience! Avoid Rona installation services at all costs. Purchased a vanity and it took over 40 phone calls to get Rona to deliver the item, schedule a pre-installation measurements and we are still awaiting the installation. Extremely poor integration and communication processes between the company and its installation contractors. This leaves the customer to coordinate very time-consuming tasks including chasing the contractors to schedule the installation.”

“Do not buy online from Rona. If you have to return something, it is a nightmare, with wrong or no information on the website and no way of printing a label that Purolator will accept. Instead of making a third and probably fruitless trip to Purolator, I returned the item at my own expense by Canada Post. The lesson learned – I can get everything I need for my new apartment from Canadian Tire or Home Depot.”

“WARNING do not purchase anything from rona online. I bought a chop saw stand for 380$ They took my money immediately. Told me the item would arrive with the week. Tracking number never updated. Over a month passed. Still no item. Finally it came and I sent it away. Because i had already purchased the same exact item at princess auto for less than half the price. I have now been waiting over 30 days for my money to be returned. After my 3rd hour long conversation with rona online. They finally were able to tell me that I will need to wait another 7 business days. Will be almost 50 days since I made the mistake of shopping at their store. I will never purchase anything from them again and will always warn my customer's away from them. They are only in it to make interest off your money while you wait for an item that will likely never arrive. All rona online purchases are a scam”

“I'm not familiar with all of the Rona locations. I had the worst customer service experience of my life at The Rona North London Ontario. There is no way I will return, and I would not advise anyone else to go there.”

“I had the worst customer service experience of my entire life. I called twice and each time both the representatives had no idea how their website functions. Instead blamed me for not knowing what I’m doing. The second person named John was sounding so condescending when I told her that I have a 32 sq ft island and he was like are you sure about that and the way he was speaking was extremely rude and putting off. He asked me do I even know what a waterfall is. Very disturbing!!! I have been buying and selling houses for years and these people are going to sit their and teach me. I don’t mind learning but watch your tone. He hung up on when I asked him for a ID to make a complaint. It is ridiculous. No one should have been made to feel you are not valued as a customer. Even if I don’t have the money to do business with you. I can only imagine what they do to those people.”

“Your most of the time more expensive then elsewhere. I only go to your store for little thing if I am in a rush. Canac and Patrick Morin beat your price even when your in special.”

“I received this garbage can and it was obviously a return because it had been resealed with Rona tape, when I opened it the lid was missing, I sent an email to Rona telling them about the missing lid and never had a response, so in a nutshell the can is great but will NEVER but from Rona.ca again.”

“Waited 4 weeks for shoes to arrive to Australia. The most uncomfortable steel cap shoes I've ever worn. Complete waste of money, I've had to go and buy other shoes because these hurt your toes.”

“i ordered 5 greenhouse trays with peatmoss pellets and today my order arrived and i recieved a 50foot drain auger???? i called customer service and the lady told me that i had to return item, wait for refund then reorder (hoping i get what i ordered). i was not happy and wanted the store that sent me the wrong item phone number, the agent hung up on me!! (i dont think it was on purpose, but im unsure). i called back and got another agent, she told me i had to speak with 1st agent i spoke to but shes on a call now. I asked her why she would be on another call and not call me back when we got disconnected, she said she was unsure but she should have, she then said she would have her call me when she was free. i said ok but can i also speak with a manager? she replied yes but we are all working from home and none available right now so i will have one call you. I havent recieved a call from anyone from rona customer service yet, i am so frustrated”

“This is second time I have tried to order clearance items on line. It shows items in stock, confirmation of order recieved by email then o follow up eamail arrives saying Rona cancelled the order and in 5 to 7 dats my card will be refunded. Is this a strategy where you put great prices to lure shoppers in then cancel hoping they added other items to their cart? No more on line shopping at Rona for me”

“I was happy because I recovered my wallet I dropped over my coat this afternoon at Rona parking lot. The person who call my attention and telling me that you dropped your wallet and he returned the wallet to me and I asked him what is your name? Instead of answering me ,he gave his survey stab with his name on it and telling me to give him 10/10 score which I’m doing now,I give 10/10 to David S. Quetta. The head office should know what David did and should receive a recognition. Now a days are few people like David. He is very honest ,formal,decent and hard working. Even in a extreme cold weather,he is still working so hard. David S.Quetta,I Salute You.”

“Last week I was in Rona Scarborough to buy a Christmas light and I was looking for an associate to help me find the location. Unfortunately nobody comes even though I already requested the customer service for help,it didn’t happened. One gentleman approached me and introduced himself,he’s name is David S.Guerra and ask me if I need help and I answered him yes,David,I need your help. I am looking for a Christmas light. David asked me what type of Christmas light you’re looking?I give him the flyers and immediately brought me to aile # 2 were the Christmas light is located. He gave me a lot of ideas regarding the type of Christmas light and including the specification. In other words,I got everything what I needed. David,is very knowledgeable,professional,intelligent and accommodating person. In that,I am giving him a score of 10/10. David S. Guerra deserved to be promoted and Rona is fortunate to have “HIM”!”

“Rona , well where do I start , my wife has been trying now for three attempts to purchase products online , as Rona pushes for , so we sit down get our list together for a line purchases , after about one hour we hit send and find out some of the products aren’t available , ok , so next we call , spend a little over a hour to get a replacement product , but it’s never just one hour , language barriers , ugh ! Most annoying, I’m all in favour of equal opportunity for each and every human , but come on I speak fluent English I would like to speak to a person to which speaks to a 10 yr level at least , never the case , moving forward with our order after now 2.5 hrs as we are and try to be patient , we agree to a few replacement items to find out at check out still a couple aren’t available , ok so now we edit our order and say we will try and aguirre the items at a different store , maybe the competitors , instead we discuss a further discount up to $200.00 off max on non sale items , now we are at 3 hours , they request we use a reference code to which we copy down all the pertinent information, time of call , person we spoke with , and the confirmation number to get our 20% off , we thank them and hang up the phone and carry on with our day , 1 week later we attempt to place a different order using all the info given to us , we have a $1246.35 order to which only two items are sale items taking us down to the $1000.00 max $200.00 off order and guess what , they can’t find the notes regarding the deal we spoke of not a week ago , so we are just totally frustrated with Rona Canada , this isn’t the first time or second time , this is the two times most recently , and because of this I wanted to do a review to turn others away from Rona , these big box stores have pushed all the little guys out and now can’t look after there repeat / first time customers ………Rona Ugh ! We spend on average for Reno’s and repairs , $30-$60k every 6-12 months ……..wtf Rona , well I can honestly say I won’t shadow your doors ever again .”
