I wanted to save money on service services plus replacement fees, so I contacted a company that I found online. I asked the owner of the company if he was certified, licensed, plus bonded. He responded with an affirmative yes, however I did not double-check. I made a lot of mistakes when I hired the person to complete the work. The guy wanted half of the money up front. I did not find that to be unusual, so I paid the man $850. He was supposed to begin that job on Thursday day. I called plus called when the guy did not show up. At first I got a voicSMS message plus then the mailbox was full. A few days later, the PC number was turned off completely. I trusted someone to install a mini split plus ductless Heating plus Air Conditioning device plus the guy took our money plus ran. I contacted a lawyer, however this is a civil case plus 1 that cannot be prosecuted because I do not even suppose the real name of the person that was handling the services. The ad online advertising services for the worker was gone by the time our lawyer started snooping around the internet. I do not have a lot of proof that this guy was supposed to do what he said plus it seems care about I am going to be out $850 for our absurd stupidity. I still need to find someone to install the machinery plus now I’m out half of our money I had for the project.
