Because my shower valve is broken. They sent someone out and they said "oh I can't fix this I'm not a plumber, we'll have to have someone else come out thats a plumber. Unfortunately since i had to come out, it's 250 dollars. We'll call you later for the actual plumber to schedule"

And my dumb ass pays. Fuck I'm so stupid.

You shouldn't have paid. Unless it's a shitty company they would have covered his cost or something

No, although a few months ago I called them for a free estimate and they wanted 500 bucks for a part change on a toilet. Told them to fuck off.

... You ever heard the saying "fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me"..? You should have learned that first time and never done business with them again.

If you dont fix it I dont pay

But it's easier just DIYing things and honestly even though you're inexperienced you'll give so much more of a fuck that the quality will be higher

the BBB doesn't mean much, or do much

all that happens is you pay them the membership fee and then they say "oh yeah, you have a good business"

it's a fucking scam
Ah. I honestly wouldn't know. I have a buddy that has filed a complaint about a shit company before. Don't know if it did much. Made him feel better at least
