Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?
Avoid this "computer expert" and supplier like the plague!

McNeese, the "expert" spent a lot of time backing up my files to a flash drive, which turned out to be totally blank. He sold my brand new computer in his possession without consent, lied to get me to accept a cheap Acer Aspire as a suitable replacement, then disappeared.

McNeese took advantage of our prior working relationship to rip me off.
 


He asked asked me repeatedly to let him sell a spare computer and printer, both brand-new, saying he had immediate buyers. He sold the printer, produced no documentation and demanded half the money.

I asked for the computer back immediately.  McNeese ignored me for days, then said he could not return it as it was "sold,"  making numerous excuses as to why he had not paid me. Again, no documentation.

I insisted on a replacement. McNeese said "I will not let you go to Best Buy, they will rip you off, I'll go myself." I asked him very specific questions and he lied to me to get me to accept a cheap Acer Aspire as a suitable replacement, saying it was comparable to an expensive HP.

He spent a lot of time here, struggling and cursing, to load Linux on the Acer. I wondered why--since it was supposedly already loaded with XP--and told him to go but he kept struggling and cursing, muttering, "Linux is better than Windows."

This is a disaster. I've lost tons of work and my investment in a professional certification class.  After the professor opened files that made both her home and work computers crash, I was dis-invited to take the final class unless I had a better computer.

McNeese has cost me dearly. Don't trust him!

McNeese Computer Consulting Busted by BNI

McNeese Computer Consulting no sooner gets action taken against it by BNI (Business Networking International) than we immediately hear from a third party (or a sock puppet). This party was:



  1. Not present

  2. Resorting to name-calling and innuendo instead of sticking to the facts

  3. Irrelevant





But I appreciate the missive as it gives me still more reason to highlight McNeese's nefarious business practices. As he has proven by his inaccuracies, this person is no exception to being hoodwinked by McNeese.



The facts remain:



1. There is no misunderstanding. There IS conscious misdirection and unethical behavior on McNeese's part.



2. The computer expert failed to copy a single file to flash drive. Not ONE.



3. McNeese lied to me.



4. He was paid in cash, in full. He thinks his refusal to give receipts gives him an 'out' for ineptitude and shoddy business practices. However, I have additional proof.



5. The computer was not McNeese's to sell. It was my property and it should have been returned immediately when requested. Instead, McNeese went underground and ignored calls and emails.



6. Selling it anyway constitutes THEFT.



7. McNeese manipulates his public profile and has negative reviews removed almost as soon as they are put up, as I know.

Lee McNeese shafted a client to make a quick buck.

I stand behind this report.

Our company has had nothing but success by using McNeese Computer Consulting. Lee has always gone the extra mile, just to achieve the highest customer satisfaction. He has produced the desired professional results in a timely manner.

As far as the negative report, it sounds like the college kid did not handle the situation correctly. From the beginning I hear trading, and believe little or No Money was involved - thus leading a lengthy situation and a possible series of misunderstandings. Just because this person has internet access and can't see past there iphone world, does not mean they have the right to open slander.

McNeese Computer Consulting has a positive reputation in the local community and, from my professional standpoint, is a trust worthy business resource. I encourage anyone reading this to see for yourself.
