Initial Complaint
04/07/2022
- Complaint Type:
- Service or Repair Issues
- Status:
- Unanswered
I was matched with this plumbing company via ***** **** for a plumbing job i needed done for my business. This man showed up to provide an estimate for services representing himself as the owner of Ali Mechanical Company LLC. That company doesnt exist in the state of PA. He also represented himself by a false name/identity. He provided me with fraudulent and misleading information in order to convince me to enter into an agreement with him by stating he was fully licensed for HVAC and Mechanical Plumbing. Upon commencement of contract, he wouldnt send me the proper forms and continued to pressure me for down payment in order to pay laborers that he brought with him to my business that day to start job. He raised the price of the agreed job after I paid him, as well as damaged toilet and 2 sinks that were already installed at the business. He said he was going to ****** to get vanities and toilet to replace fixtures after i repeatedly asked him not to. He proceeded to dump my business fixtures outside behind salon in pieces. The next morning i was contacted from neighboring jewelry store owner about a major water leak and structural damage to their business. I contacted ********************* (owner) at 9:30 AM immediately and he refused to come and investigate or send anyone to rectify situation. 5 hours later after repeated calls and text messages, I left and contacted 3rd party to help investigate ********************* and Ali Mechanical Company Llc. I was told that company does not exist, nor is that the real name of the person representing fraudulent business. His real name is ***************************** and he is publishing false and deceptive advertisements to be fully licensed plumber and HVAC contractors. He doesn't have any licenses whatsoever. Nor is he permitted to contract services in state of PA as a plumber because he doesnt have credentials for Home Improvement License. He refused to refund my payment, and refuses to compensate for the damages he caused.
