Posted on: July 19, 2021[ARCHIVED] Buyer Beware

BUYER BEWARE !!!
With the horrendous storm that hit St. John on July 9th, it’s more than likely non-reputable companies will be out there trying to make a quick buck. Beware of companies going door-to-door or telephone solicitors offering their services.
If you are approached by a company, keep the following in mind:
Get a call back number and/or email address;
Ask to see their credentials from the company;
Get the sales person’s name, the name of their company and the address and phone number of the company;
By phone, write down the caller ID info. Does it check out with the company they said they are with?;
Don’t give them "too" much personal info;
Have them give you a quote in writing;
Don’t pay them in advance;
Contact the Better Business Bureau (BBB) at
211 N Broadway, Ste 2060, Saint Louis, MO 63102,
(314) 645-3300 and inquire about the company;
And last, but not least, don’t sign anything until you are comfortable with everything !
