undefinedWhat is the name of your state? Rhode Island
I want to set up a website to expose a business for unfair practices. I purchased a front bay window, ordered 3 basement windows and contracted for some repairs to the vinyl on my house. Verbal contract. Handshake. He had done work for my mother, my sister and a friend who I referred him to.
The cost of the front window was $3050.00. 3 basement windows $1800.00. The rest was for the repairs to the vinyl. I gave the salesperson a deposit of $1290.00 when the front window was installed. Two weeks later a check for $4500.00 in full payment of all goods and services agreed upon. I no longer want the 3 basement windows nor the repairs done to the vinyl. I have cancelled checks proving I paid $5700.00. He admits he did not deliver or install the 3 remaining windows or do the remaining work. He will not refund my money. He is in fact telling the BBB that I owe HIM money. BBB is saying that unless I can produce a contract, they cannot proceed. I sent them the cancelled checks. The deposit check of $1290.00 with front window written in the memo section of the check.
If I stick to the facts, is it illegal for me to advertise what my experience with this company has been to help others avoid the hell of dealing with this business?
Thank you for your help... I am getting desperate because it seems like there is nothing I can do to get my money back!
