My father in the 1960s bought and built a Lindal Cedar Home in the far north of Canada. It is an awesome home. Since you put it together, I can't imagine where there is a problem. It doesn't get any better than a Lindal Cedar home. |
Well Walter Lindal probably had a good idea but after 40+ years and
his pride and joy being driven into the ground by his greedy family your comment doesn't hold much water... sort of like Lindals windows and sunrooms! Apparently the FTC doesn't share your enthusiasm with Lindal either! Or some of their dealers not to mention quite a few customers..... check out http://www.sundesign123.com/ for a little peek inside Lindal! NEXT ! |
You are quite correct!... Although funny how the same complaints exist
today! Well... Then there are those that rant about the Lindal success stories from the 60's... I can't satisfy everybody! And it's funny that Lindal was trying to reverse that ruling so they could go back to scamming their customers the old fashoned way!.. I guess they gave up on reversing the FTC ruling when arbitration became the easiest way to hide your shenanigans. |

Well.. I can certainly understand your point of view, however I would
expect you would change you mind if you were one of Lindals unfortunate customers. What appears as a vendetta is a call to customers (or dealers) who may not realize there are more of them than they think and by banding together they not only have a voice but quite a bit of leverage over what first appeared to be a hopeless situation! When a big name company sets out to scam it's customers it is nice to see that there is someone willing to try to help you without demanding money! When you have been swindled by a company that relies on arbitration you'll soon see how the State and Federal Governments and many agencies or lawyers who would normally come to your assistance, have little jurisdiction over your problem. Like yourself, most unhappy Lindal customers are not aware of the growing problem, so I'm here to change that. Ed |

Well, it seems if it were a very big problem, there would be something discernible to see... In the grand scheme of home builder problems it's quite small. Lindal only serves a very small sector of the marketplace. When you look at the number of contracts negotiated vs. the number of contracts completed you'll likely see very disturbing numbers. Lindal keeps the deposits on materials and will not return those funds even when no materials have been ordered! The complaints are out there for those not snared by arbitration. The disturbing thing is the basic nature of all the complaints. Lindal & the dealer take your money then disappear! Your initial quoted fees are quite low, then the rest of your money disappears for all sorts of undocumented services. The reason Lindal has gotten away with it for so long is it is not a very big problem compared to ENRON Etc.. |

Lindal keeps the deposits on materials and will not return those funds even when no materials have been ordered! Well, I know nothing about buying/building a Lindal or any prefab home. But I can tell you from life's experience that 99.999999999 percent of the people don't read any contracts they sign, be it visa, a signature card at a bank or perhaps even a Lindal contract. What does the Lindal contact say that anybody signed? Why would anyone turn over money to any company or sign any contract until product was delivered. Why would the customer not put the money in trust with a lawyer to protect them from bankruptcy of Lindal or any other company and also to proctect them against any faulty workmanship or missing materials? The complaints are out there for those not snared by arbitration. The disturbing thing is the basic nature of all the complaints. Lindal & the dealer take your money then disappear! Do customers walk into Lindal and ask the people to give a written signed quote? Your initial quoted fees are quite low, then the rest of your money disappears for all sorts of undocumented services. Well, you haven't made it clear at this point whether one has signed a contact yet or not and whether the contract spells out these terms or not. When you say the rest of your money dissapears, what do you mean? Do you not sign a contract that says for 100 dollars you get the following list of materials to be able to complete your Lindal home? What you need to tell us is the Lindal experience so we know what happened. A salesman can tell you anything they want, but what did you as a customer, insist they put in writing and sign on Lindal letterhead? The reason Lindal has gotten away with it for so long is it is not a very big problem compared to ENRON Etc.. You need to tell the world what is the first thing that went wrong when buying a Lindal Home. |
