Ben Franklin Plumbing OVERCHARGED Tampa, Florida
I called Ben Franklin Plumbing because I used them 2 years before. After having the bathtub and toilet overflow into the home, I called Ben Franklin again. They responded very quickly, within 3 hours. The tech made an assessment and quoted $412.00 for a clean out service. The job was performed in 3 hours with success. HOWEVER, thinking that the job price was excessive, I called two other plumbing services in Tampa the next day with the following quotes. Alvarez Plumbing said that they would charge between minimum $89.00 to a maximum of $189.00 depending on the time at the job. Gonzalez Plumbling quoted $95.00 for the 1st hour and $85.00 for the second hour and a $35.00 mechanical rotor fee, maximum. Ben Franklin took advantage of me and my situation.

no one ripped you off.you are only interested in the lowest possible price and you should have called around.no one to blame but yourself.they didnt hold a gun to your head...if you go to a restaurant and eat a steak for $25 and the next day you go to golden corral and get a steak for the $10 price of a buffet meal do you complain to the $25 steak place?maybe you would because you are an uninformed whiner.NOTHING is ever your fault is it?do your due diligence if price is all that matters or better yet get someone off of craigslist! you have to take responsibility for you,unless you are retarded,extremely stupid or under age and i assume you are none of those,grow up!!!
