Staples Canada Reviews 

I ordered 8 boxes of SOS steel wool soap pads on line. Delivery was scheduled for Jan 6, 2025 which was fine.

They (Staples) deliver only 2 boxes of the SOS PADS! And what is even more baffling is that the online order trackers says DELIVERY COMPLETE! Really? You deliver only 25% of my order and you tell me the delivery is complete?

So I have to call Customer Service and I speak to someone in their Warehouse in Laval, Quebec. The gentleman I spoke to was very apologetic and assured me that he would make sure that I received the 6 missing boxes of SOS pads.

Next day I received the rest of the missing boxes. I was told that all 8 SOS boxes should have been delivered together on January 6th.

I don't know what caused this screw up but
I don't really trust their internal delivery system, thus the rating of 1/5 for their delivery service!

What went wrong pathetic customer service, this is the second time the same staples employee had given the worse customer service, i would like to add other employees are pleasent and helpful this broad was neither. whats worse i went to speak to the store manager and he tells me ya i dont want my employess helping in the copy area because they make no money from that, so i was surprised and said well then why does staples have a copy center. Then on 2nd visit in matter of a week the same woman was helping someone in the copy center and completely ignoring me yet again at the counter to ship a parcel, then she finally comes over and says i cant scan it its not scanning so i cant take to which i reply well the other young man entered it manually to which she replys im not doing that because the driver may not accept the parcel. Tells me to go make a new copy of the label, as if my time is not as valuable as hers. Actually it is more valuable shes at her place of employment. I have better things to do than go reprint a label at my office then return to staples.

Very disappointed with todays service at the Maple Ridge Printing department 2:00 pm I drove out to this staples which I have been doing for 3 years to get my event posters printed out.. Stood in line up which consisted of 1 person ME!! I place email photo of my poster waited for code only to be told the they do not do same day service? I have done this very same thing, Oh maybe 15 times as it only takes less than 15 min. to process. The guy and the girl both said they do not do same day service?? As I said I have been going here for 3 years and its always been same day service busy or not it never took longer than 20 min. The crew today where very lazy!! and didn't feel like doing it. It takes me longer to drive there than it took to make order.. In total waisted 1.5 hours for this and will have to waist another 1.5 hours to go again and pick up order. Cost of order less than $25 Time and fuel waisted $100. I am now taking my business elsewhere!! Its as simple as copy paste print DONE just like every other time

Hi !
So far I never had to complain about any staples store as a long time business owner and dedicated customer , however
just had to send 7 pages by FAX from Ontario to a Quebec phone number because my machine was broken - was charged Ca.$ 19.70 which seems to me absolutely obscene - on top of that it was self service at 266 Victoria Park /95 Ellesmere Road

I would like to thank Ty and his associate for fixing the problem with my new iPad on Jan. 3/25 . I was in a dilemma and they straightened it out for me free if charge. 👍

Zero stars, probably one of the worse when it comes to services and shipping. I placed an order for 2 tablets for my kids and I got the confirmation. Over a week passed and I still didn't have shipping confirmation or nothing of an update. They're already terrible when it comes to shipping so I usually order for pickup. So, I decided to call their csr line re the tablets and on hold for almost an hour. Finally, an agent came on and they've canceled the order because of low stock and I understand. But there was no update whatsoever about this. Yeah, I'm about done ordering anything from staples. We're going in to a new year and one garbage of a company to no longer get deal with.

Shipping fee gouge!
I tried to order Norton Security from Staples Canada. Upon checkout, Staples wanted a shipping fee of $6 on a $35 software download! The software download was via email only and no mail nor shipping required. I ended buying from Best Buy.

Beyond awful I ordered a Chromebook because mine had died and after looking at a few sites the one I chose really appealed to me. Instead of getting shipping information the next day I got a message my order had been cancelled. It claimed I had not been charged but I was and that it would take up to seven days to get the "hold" off my account. I was refunded nine days later! That is not okay. I will not buy anything from Staples again and will warn everyone else I know not to either.

I ordered prints on line for Christmas that were supposed to be ready yesterday. Today when I called to check if they were ready I was told they would take 3-5 business days. Terrible customer service followed. Bottom line, do not order prints from Staples.

Today, me as biz account client went get a printer cartridge and asked to price match it.
Park Royal North Van BC staples branch.
As client I asked for price match is their policy. Then I got lectured by a new employee ( seem I never saw before there) that the price on internet is a prize higher then I quoted. I then called competitor on the phone and they said it was like my prize quoted. The manager got involved and told me doesn't want to time and neglected prizematch. Although he could hear competitor on the quoting my prize correctly.
I was feeling like harassed by manager and employee alike. I cannot recommend how bully they treat people. Yes I m aware we employ new immigrants but ethnically I felt reverse discrimination by them. So yes lesson learned better go online or to competitor directly. I cannot trust Staples as business account holder. Sorry so Staples does misrepresentation in their practice.
An apology from them with kind understanding helpful service would be great.

I purchased a laptop online during the black Friday sale. Great deal but the order was cancelled because of a computer glitch. Angela from Bracebridge Staples helped me to re instate my purchase at the sale price after it had expired and made it easy for me to pick up my laptop. She made a bad experience into a good one. Excellent office manager.

Ordered 17 puzzles for a hockey team. Boxes came with pictures affixed to them all crooked. Unsatisfactory product, despite the expense of each. Now I will have to purchase 17 new boxes as they are unwilling to send me new ones as they say “they are not part of the product”.

Theres stupid.. and theres idiotic and then theres ... complete morons. We don't match prices on black Friday with our competitors. Why are you in business.
BANKRUPTCY AWAITS.

I bought the Jlab GO Air POP earbuds at the Unity Square location in Edmonton. After getting them I realized they can't be turned on without the case. Huge disadvantage. When I tried to return them, the Staples sales guy - a shift manager by the name of Rob, I believe - was very rude, saying I just didn't know how to work the earbuds. But after he tried it himself and realized I was right, all he was willing to do - without apologizing, of course - was to replace the defective earbuds with another set of the same model, which were defective in the exact same way. As much as I like being gaslighted by Staples employees, I don't think I'll be returning to that store.

I do not recommend Staples, they cancel the order without any explanation. The worst communication experience

Purchased an original HP 30A black laserJet Tone cartridge at 110.00$. The cartridge was dry and useless and since I installed it after 30 days of purchase, they can't do anything.
Never purchasing anything from them again!

Christopher,main st. moncton,nb,is the worst manager I ever had to deal with. I’ve been going to staples x 10 years for my business and will no longer go. The worst worst experience ever!!! It was only for a $6.90 printing error, but it was the way he dealt with the situation that was disgusting. Staples lost a good customer and I will for sure not recommend this store to any of my clients and friends.

Staples 168, on 152 Street 3037 Surrey BC/White Rock
The manager of this store is RUDE beyond measure, obnoxious, shouting at me. Her treatment of me when answering my question was impatient with the attitude of "you stupid women can't you read". She does not deserve to be a Manager, let alone have any contact with the customers. The rude unexpected treatment that was flung at me by the manager on 19 November at 9:06am was sickening. Uncalled for.

I am very frustrated with the lack of responsibility shown by Staples regarding my phone issue. It has been over four months since I first raised this problem, and despite their protection plan, I have not received a resolution.

On October 22, 2024, I received an email from their customer support (Youssef T.) advising me to visit the store for a refund or resolution. However, over a month has passed since that communication, and no progress has been made. This situation has wasted a significant amount of my time, and Staples has failed to take ownership of the issue.

The customer support team has been unresponsive and unhelpful throughout this process. I expected a reliable solution, but instead, I have been left waiting with no clarity or accountability.

Staples needs to address this immediately by replacing my phone and compensating me for the unnecessary delays and inconvenience caused. I am deeply disappointed in their service and would caution others about relying on their protection plans.

Staples at 16 Seacliff Dr E, Leamington, ON N8H 2L2
I'm from Vancouver, BC and was traveling in Leamington last month and had to shop for a router since my travel router had died. The manager Mike was absolutely horrible and if he was my first impression on a tourist from BC, then I would go back home telling about rude people in Ontario. Will never go back there again and told everyone in Vancouver. I went to Best Buy and had a completely different experience.
