Complaint Review: Killer Bee Technologies

FIRST LET ME SAY BUYER BEWARE! ! ! DO NOT IGNORE THE RED FLAGS LIKE I DID !! DO NOT BE LURED IN BY LOW COST!

I saw warnings but figured there are always unhappy customers.  I was suckered in by his promise to check out my ECU and repair it for $115 if it could be repaired. Turns out both of the ECU's I sent were not repairable. I sent the first one, a Duramax ECU in and after being told of the options, I went with a new programmed one (by him ). Upon receipt it did not look new and it would not work at all. He blamed his supplier. Everybody has a problem now and again so I gave him the benifit of the doubt and waited for the second one. It looked better , but still had wierd scratches all over it. It worked , but the vehicle still has a code that I can not seem to get rid of. May or may noy be a problem with the ECU.

   Then I had a Dodge Cummins that had a questionable ECU. I sent it in and it too was unrepairable. I opted for a tested ECU this time. I took the truck to the dealer to be programmed. After being programmed by the dealer , the truck had codes because the ECU was for an automatic trans vehicle. He had my old ECU so there shouldnt have been a problem. Michael would not hear of covering the cost of programming. He sent another ECU which the dealer attempted to program. They could not even connect to it. I then told Michael that I wanted to source an ECU elsewhere. I asked if I should use one of his ECU's for a core , but he insisted I send both his back and he would send me mine. Like a dumb a*s I did send his back. I was credited for the faulty ECU. However I did not receive my old one back. Upon phoning and emailing he stated that he had shipped it and would get the tracking number.  After repeatedly asking and phoning , he never did give the tracking number  to me , nor did I receive the ECU. That ment I got wacked a $250 core charge. So to boil down my expenses relating to MR Michael Patton , they are;

Programming 2 times   $193

Initial fee                     $115

extra freight                  $34

core charge                  $250

TOTAL CASH OUT          $592         THIS HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH ALL THE EXTRA TIME AND CUSTOMER AGGRAVATION!

   ALSO BE AWARE THAT IT IS A SHADY OPERATION. AFTER INITIAL PAYMENT TO MICHAEL PATTON , THE REST OF THE PAYMENTS WENT TO ANOTHER INDIVIDUAL--TONI MENNUTI. YOU FIGURE THAT ONE OUT.

TO RECOUP-- FAULTY PARTS , NOT NEW, NOT ACCOUNTABLE FOR BAD PARTS, AND TOTALLY UNRESPONSIVE .

DO NOT BE LURED IN BY LOW PRICE . YOU WILL PAY DEARLY IN THE END !! IGNORE AT YOUR PERIL
