MATCO TOOLS Franchise Complaints

View Comments

• Sure enough, Matco deleted Todd's Facebook post and comments at Jason Neal's insistence.

  Funny how the Old Boy's Club was such a bunch of whining crybabies if they were moderated here, but they're for all out censorship when it comes to the Matco propaganda machine. What tools.

• Geez, Matco has also removed Tim Gilmore's video
  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ztaxdoa3P4Q

  I HAVE A COPY IF ANYONE WANTS :)

  Sorry guys, once you HAVE SAID SOMETHING...............
  YOU CAN NOT "UN" SAY IT.

  Maybe you should acknowledge the FACT - I was RIGHT, you were lying!!

  Maybe create a new video and APOLOGIZE -

  • Debbie
    They actually reposted the video with the success statistics rather crudely edited out. I'll post the link shortly.

• im not sure that i understand the careerbuilder site. it shows 3 routes in savannah. the only route open is my old route unless they put someone else ouy and divided his route. there is not much territory left to divide.

• The career builder site is just another fraudulent and illegal
  act by Matco. The FTC regulations prohibit using Internet job
  sites for advertising by posting positions that don't exist.

  They quote studies that dont exist
  They post jobs that don't exist

• Did you know Matco REMOVED Tim Gilmore's You Tube video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ztaxdoa3P4Q ****I still have a copy***In the original video, Gilmore referenced a US Dept of Commerce study stating franchises have a 91% success rate, That study did not exist!

  THIS is the same video with the NON EXISTENT video edited out.

• In addition - COMMENTS cannot be added without user approval,

  (to the new Gilmore video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3XCQz4BkAi0)
  so there will not be any negative comments

• Matco – instead of telling ALL THESE DISTRIBUTORS they are wrong…………
  STEP UP MATCO AND FIX YOUR ISSUES!!!!!!!!

  DON'T THINK YOU CAN JUST *BURY* THE PROOF, JUST BECAUSE YOU EDITED OUT THE NON EXISTENT STUDY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  plenty of people, including myself, have a copy of the original video

  DON'T JUST THINK IT WILL ALL GO AWAY BECAUSE OF YOUR ATTEMPT TO FIX YOUR LYING VIDEO

  STEP UP MATCO AND FIX YOUR ISSUES!!!!!!!!

  No longer can you get away with mis treating distributors and thinking they won’t stand up for their rights ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ THEY WILL,,,,, THEY ARE
  No longer can you LIE, no longer can you quote STUDIES THAT DON’T EXIST

  STEP UP MATCO AND FIX YOUR ISSUES!!!!!!!!

  come on,,,,,,,,,,, impress me - i dare you

• Debbie,

  New career I see, telemarketer are you sure you can handel it ? and when are you moving to India ?

• Good morning everyone, I watched the gilmore video over the weekend and Debbie is correct, it is full of lies.

  I am glad to see people are also posting on matco tools facebook page.

  Matco has shut the obc club and they have disappeared, they must have been costing matco money, by not working and spending all day on here, Jason must be at the flamingo, with his boyfriend, Cary or Porkchop.

  REMEMBER TO POST ANYWHERE, EVERYWHERE AND BE LOUD, CAUSE WE ARE BEING HEARD.

  M- MATCO

  D-DISTRIBUTORS

  A- AGAINST

  C-CORPORATE

  If you are not an employee of matco, why is matco posting franchisess on a job board?

  Sect 5 of the FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION states, franchises are not job opportunities, but businesses for sale, and can not be posted as job opprtunities.

  Could it be that all distributors really are employed by matco?

  Distributors, you should check that site out, you may find your route on there, because you are only a number and will be replaced.
