I had 2 representatives for HRI knock on my door this afternoon. They seemed really nice, gave me their speel. I made it clear I was happy to give a once off donation. No they said, we only accept ongoing monthly donations, minimum 37 per month. I said no, I won’t do ongoing monthly donations. WHY? They say....Well, just don’t want to and really none of your business why. Long story short, they went on and on. So many cringey compliments, so much fluff. Then they ask for my ID and my credit card details. Why do you want that I ask? “Oh, so we can bill you for the monthly donation” WHAT? I don’t want that?! Yet they still went on. Trying to make me feel bad. So uncomfortable, and such a waste of my time, and of course theirs!

Does great work and the people are lovely!
Had some issues but have since been worked out extremely quickly. Thanks
Working together to make things better. Many thanks to the heart institute for all you do. Any help is great help in finding ways to prevent and stop heart problems of all types. It is extremely important that the *Heart Institute* is seen and heard in as many places as possible, so that people who can contribute in any way, can do so to help this wonderful cause. The *Heart Institute* saves lives. Thank you.
Used to donate monthly to HRI, did it every month for 7 years then I started getting phone call after phone call asking me to increase my monthly donation. I refused believing that I was already doing enough, and a lot more than most. So I warned them that if I got one more phone call asking for more money, I would cancel my donation completely. Then BAM ! another phone call looking for more money. So I cancelled the donation completely, now I keep getting calls from rude little grubs at my office wanting me to reinstate the donation. Take a hike HRI, I'm done with you, and tell your telemarketers to pull their grubby little heads in.
I made donation for 5 or 6 months, then call them in April 2017 to stop donation due to income changes. I promised that I would donate again when my condition gets better. But my money got deducted from account today on 13/05/17 on Saturday. Can you believe this? They got my money on Saturday when bank even doesn't work. I do not believe HRI, I won't donate to this institute again.
My husband got rang from this number to his UNLISTED mobile telephone number. 02 80311341 was the number that called. When my husband asked the caller how he got his number, he was told it was randomly selected. "But how did you know my name if it's random"? my husband inquired. "Oh, I can't tell you that" the caller said. VERY dubious business practices. Smells of a scam. BEWARE!!!
I'm proud to be supporting heart research with HRI. I've been impressed with the information they've sent me since i've been making a monthly donation and feel like I'm really having an impact.
