RIPPED OFF BY "LOCKSMITH"

Dear All, I would like to report on how a so called "locksmith" ripped me off when I was highly stressed/shocked after a burglary & needed my house secure asap. Normally I would replace the locks myself but was too busy with SAPS & CMS at the time. Eddie who works under name of E&J Services from Benoni came out &, charged me R2190 for the two locks that he replaced. (NO quote was given) Note that was EXCLUDING the R850 labour & R295 call out fee. Man at Jacks Hardware could not believe it when I showed him. These locks normally sell for less then R180 each !! I did query the high price of R1295 for the sec lock. His answer was it is special pin lock? (Not even working properly) As per the store most that it can cost ever is R400? Ps. Insurance will pay me R1000 total. Sorry, just hate it when people take advantage of you like this.
