This is the most unprofessionally run business I have encountered throughout my entire master bathroom renovation. I've worked with countless contractors/subcontractors and had a better/more professional experience with all of them over working with the Mosaic Tile at the Merrifield location.
1. Their ordering process is a mess. We were working on a rather large project (master bathroom), so we ordered our tile in segments: floor tile, then shower tile, then accent wall and trim pieces. Each time we called to place an order the rep who would answer my call for order would start an entirely new purchase order. This got really messy as it would take them 10 minutes with me on the phone to figure out which order was the initial Purchase Order I needed to order off of.
2- Their "in-stock" tile still requires a 24 hour notice. They're closed on Sundays and Orders on Saturdays have to be placed before noon.. This set us back several times with the contractors. The Tile Shop just down the street has their tile actually IN STOCK for immediate pick up.. I recommend them instead (and to work with a gentleman named Shahid who will give you great discounts).
3- I was told if my contractor called in to verify who he was, I would get a 10% Contractor's discount on my project. I got 10% off the first order but by the 2nd order the manager suddenly decided this "wasn't something they typically do"- but then why offer it and apply it to part of my order???
4- The BIG mistake... that happened THREE times. A few days after I had completed all of my tile orders, I got a few alert messages from my Credit Card for suspicious activity. I looked at my account and noticed Mosaic Tile charged an additional $4,200 on my card and then another $58!! I called and left a message to have Jennifer (my sales rep) call me first thing Monday morning. Monday afternoon came and no call so I called again. The woman who answered said Jennifer was "busy" but that she could assist. She looked through all of my orders but said she didn't see any additional charge for the $4,200 or $58 AND she couldn't even tell that I'd picked up my previous orders!! She said she'd have a manager call me back, of course, he never did. Several hours later I called back, the woman said she spoke with the manager and they didn't see any charges so she suggested I dispute with my bank. Of course, I did. The bank immediately issued my refund.I called mosaic back to let them know my bank would be in touch as I've now disputed the charges. Finally, Mosaic admitted they over charged my card but not a single call from Jennifer or a manager and absolutely ZERO apologies for the over $4,200 mistake! And I should say, I was REALLY NICE and understanding about it.. I work in sales, too, so I get it that mistakes happen- but an apology is just customer service 101.
It gets worse. Now I have a block on my card in the midst of a major renovation- a HUGE inconvenience. Still, nothing offered by the Mosaic Tile as consolation for their massive mistake. No discounts offered, no credit back, not even a call to apologize.
I had left over tiles after the job was complete and went in to get my refund. I asked to speak with the manager so, Matt came out. I introduced myself and he immediately said he was out-of-office when my ordeal happened- still, no apologies. I told him I had extra tiles to return. I also had a few extra sheets from a box I had ordered and was hoping to return those too. He said he won't return the sheets but, at best, offered to accept my FULL BOX returns.. (obviously?? ) I reminded him that he caused quite the headache and set-back in the midst of my renovation but he barely gave an apology, still. Instead, he boldly admitted they had put my card on file under a different client and charged her tile on my card. He then had the nerve to ask me to drop the dispute with my bank and allow him to process the refund directly. I declined this for two reasons: 1) I was already refunded by the bank and 2) Given their lack of customer service, I really didn't trust him to not mess up again.
July Fourth day.... I check my account and there's ANOTHER CHARGE for $158. I called Mosaic and their corporate this time. Matt just called me today (Wed morning), to say sorry but apparently the client (who has MY card on THEIR file) ordered some more tile and they ran it on my card again! At this point, I was no longer nice. They've charged over $4,500 of miscellaneous charges on my card.... that's credit card theft. Why Matt even bothered to call is beyond me. He offered NOTHING to make up for this massive mistake.
After dealing with over $4,500 of fraudulent charges and still NO consolation offered, I deem this company exceptionally unprofessional and would never recommend them to anyone. Customer service when you are making a purchase means nothing. True customer service is shown when handling a crisis or problem. In this case, Mosaic has TERRIBLE service. read more
