My Mother hired a licensed electrician to install 1 ethernet drop in her home office. She already had a preexisting tp-link setup in the basement. She showed me the invoice today which totaled $958.00! I’m shocked and disgusted. Feels like they took advantage of my Mother.

I told my Mother to call them first thing tomorrow morning to see if they possibly made a mistake. If not, I advised her to never do business with that company again. This seems like highway robbery. Is there anything else she can do?

      the pay was pretty good for most work back then. But the residential stuff almost always worked out less /hr (more effort) so we almost never did it. So infrequently I can remember every job. Or maybe just all the swearing etc burned them into my memory ? 🤣
