I have tried to edit ( blank ) some of the incorrect information. In general very little is actually correct.

1)I am financial controller for the company and know for a fact that all financial information is not accurate.I do not know how did you post it at the first place MDG is a privet company and does not have financial information in public. All of the newspaper articles on the subject are journalist speculations and not company provided information. Revenue of 1.3 billion and net income of 800 million make no sense for a computer company to anyone who has any knowledge of the industry.

2)Since 2010 consumer financing is main company retail focus and it operates in Canada www.mdg.ca and USA www.mdg.com.

3)Section about some items being overpriced is unfair if compared to companies competitors in high risk finance like www.easyhome.ca,  rent a center , Aarons and similar in USA or Canada. To the contrary pricing is very competitive. Being compared to on line discounters is wrong methodology in my view.

4)“ Bait and switch comments” are also not fair considering that most of public forum complaints have to do with franchise stores operations and not with web site orders that is companies only way of doing business since 2010. Using word “constantly” in that context is also unfair even before 2009, complaints have to be looked in relation of number of units sold. There is no computer manufacturer in the world that is shipping units in hundreds of thousands annually that will not get same number if not far more complaints. Please look at any major competitor complains and you will see far more pages of complaints than MDG. I understand your need to be balanced and have some criticism but “ consistent” and without saying it is related to franchised stores operations and  before 2009 is not balanced in my view. 5)Section about number of franchised stores is also not factual – MDG divested all stores in 2009. All retail division operations are conducted on line.

Sorry if the format of the editing is not correct, I did not spend enough time going through your site. Sincerely : MDG

======================================== Hello MDG,

Items 1) 2) and 5) I am unfamiliar with as they contain information I did not add. These should be altered as you say.

Items 3) and 4) reflect an old personal grudge with the chain, in particular the stores that used to operate in Quebec. The individuals that ran these stores were deplorable, but it is unfair to paint the company with the same brush. I will make changes reflecting that the pricing is competitive in terms of high-risk finance and will remove the biased and out-dated criticism. I apologize for the misunderstanding.

EDIT:

I have made the changes, hopefully I have undone the erroneous information. I emailed the financial department of MDG in order to contact you better, but I invite you to use a wikipedia account to update the page to your liking and provide the appropriate references. The erroneous financial information was added by another user named K6ka. MichaelGasse (talk) 23:43, 13 December 2013 (UTC)

Thank you Michael – We do not like editing page, It would come out to be a self-promotion. What e-mail address did you send your e-mail to ? I would like to have it on file in case of major inaccuracies on the page. MDG — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.14.173.226 (talk) 18:45, 27 December 2013 (UTC)
