Have you ever had any experiences with the BBB? I've had a couple and just recently filed a complaint with them.

Had a trailer hitch installed at a body shop in Asheville on my SUV to pull a U-Haul down to Texas because I was moving. The receipt stated "Hitch & Harness" which when I read the initial quote I thought meant wiring harness, for the lights and stuff. So pick the thing up after it's installed, go to pick up the trailer and the lights don't work on the trailer, none of them. Take it back to the shop, they fiddle with it and say it works, go back to rent the trailer and now the lights and turn signals work, but the brake lights won't, so I still can't rent it. Now I've wasted about half a day because of this nonsense.

Take it back the next morning and they fiddle with it again. The tech says the wiring harness is bad but he got it to work. Try to rent the trailer again and everything seems to work. Miles down the road in Tennessee it's getting dark so I flip on my lights. Fog lamps don't work but turn on when the brakes are hit. Learn after stopping the rear lights don't work, on my car or the trailer. Took it to the Toyota dealer to get fixed, they determine the wiring job blew fuses. Repair was over $100, installing a proper wiring harness is $300.

So I filed with the BBB to get refunded for the repairs and to be reimbursed for the repairs needed to have a functioning hitch and wiring harness. I think I've got a pretty good case here. They botched a job, are blaming the parts, and are going up against their own service and repair guarantee that claims they guarantee parts and service for up to a year (and this happened a day later).

oh yeah, if it was a debit card you used to pay for the original service...

go to your bank and explain the situation... You will likely have to spell out the details in a letter form, but they should credit your account back and then the credit agency that issues the card (Visa or MC, usually) will pursue it for you... You won't have to go to court on it if that is the case...

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
