Total rip-off

Utterly disgusted at the con artist of an electrician Arck Services sent by Flash, Freeze & Flush Enterprises that charged us R11589 just to replace an earth leakage switch! He told us R8000. Then R500 call out fee became a R695 and a switch which costs R1500 everywhere else became R8094 plus "inspection fee" and labour of R2800. Three other electricians told us this job should not have been more than R5000 even with after hour changes. So angry to have been taken advantage of to this extent. On top if this he quoted us R18000-R19000 to replace our geyser where we got quotes from other plumbers for R6800-R8500.
