A 24-Hour Locksmith

What rip off.
So last night I somehow managed to lock myself out of my bedroom. This morning I called this locksmith. When I googled locksmith and salem, ma, numerous numbers came up — well — they (all of them that begin with «978 – 590) are the same company. The real name is Dependable Locks Inc… look them up online and you will see all the complaints.
When I called they told me that it would cost $ 39 for the service call and $ 15 to pick the lock. When the kid got there, he was chatted and friendly and asked me to sign a piece of paper that didn’t have any information on it. I did, foolishly. 5 minutes later he was working on the lock and said it needed to be drilled because of it being «high security»…it was a bedroom lock in a hollow door… but ok. So long story short, when the service was done, it came out oto $ 149 because «he had to drill’ I flipped and said that was not the amount that I was quoted. He said «you signed it didn’t you?» I said «I signed a blank piece of paper» he said he would go get the recipe, then proceeds to bring his things downstairs and comes back up with now charges listed on the blank paper that I signed! I now know to never sign anything that I don’t know what was stated, very dumb of me, but STAY AWAY from this company. It’s the same place that is listed in Lynn and Peabody.
