So after discovering i was driving around with a brake light out i decided to "Google" an electrician close by, and after reading the one single good review left on another site about this business, i decided to give them a try. As i pulled up they (approx) 6 men were sitting out the front in the driveway, i felt awkward as i had to get out with all eyes watching my every move......anyhow, i explained my brake light wasn't working and with just a nod the Owner walked into his workshop. I waited a minute then he walked back out, said pop the boot and within 2 minutes it was fixed. He said 5 bucks thanks luv! I handed over the $5 and was on my way without a goodbye. I drove off thinking to myself, worse customer service ever! Later that night i discovered that he had put the wrong light in because when i turned my lights on to drive there was no tail light, just a brake light. I didn't want to return to Seaton Electrical because i felt very intimidated and felt i was an interruption. However, people that i spoke to said i had every right to go back because he installed the incorrect globe. So the next day i went back, pretty much the same deal except they were all gathered inside talking this time, he came out and i explained that my brake light was working but there's no tail light. (Brake lights require a certain globe to work with both tail and braking light, any electrician would know this) I didn't want to tell him he installed the wrong globe so i waited patiently. Again, he didn't say anything and returned inside his work shop. By the time he returned he looked pretty peeved off and i felt very uncomfortable. As soon as he finished he said, 5 bucks!! I was shocked, he put the wrong globe in then wanted to charge me an extra $5 for a different globe all while he took back the first one he installed to use again, i'm assuming. I wanted to say something but the way he was holding out his hand i knew he was expecting payment and fast! Reluctantly I handed over the $5 and again, left without a goodbye or thanks see you again.....
I felt extremely used and felt like crap all day.

Approximate cost: $10.00
