“Plugged Toilet”

Georgie F.
9/9/24

Joshua gave me excellent advice and information on how to fix our plugged up toilet. He was patient and explained the different techniques and possible reasons we had a problem. And this 83 year old female did it! Thanks!

“Wrong schematics”

Michael S.
9/2/24

Trying to find a wiring diagram for my 2021 Ford Ranger. Was sent nice colored schematics, which turned out to be incorrect. In all fairness, the Ford dealership didn't have the right schematics either. Nothing seem to match the vehicle. We identified the proper wire by using the pin that it was attached to rather than the color of the wires, which were not correct by either person.

If I hadn't spoken to the attorney that night, I wouldn't have had any sleep worrying and wondering about my next step. Keep up the good work.

These people will promise to only take $5 but will take a lot more with permission or warning. Scam artists.

I cancelled immediately and they acknowledged cancellation and charged 66 dollars the next month. I hate these kinds of scammers.

Tip for consumers:
They get you to pay 1 dollar than charge 66 dollars

It's a scam. They chat w/you and then send you to a webpage for a $5 consult fee. Shows up as $69. Pathetic

Beware of of this company, they are a scam. While I was on vacation overseas, I ran into a problem with a new Android device. I couldn't seem to correct it so I decided to use just answer for some support. I started by answering basic questions asked by their bot which led to an offer for more detailed support by paying a small entry fee of €1. Beware. The €1 charge was the primary focus on screen but hidden in small print was a much more exorbitant monthly membership fee. After paying the small fee, the bot responded to say that they were going to connect me with an expert to help with " my smart TV issue". When I tried to correct to the Android issue, the bot responded to say that they were going to connect me with an expert to help with " my e-reader issue". At this point I realized it was a scam and I backed out. During this chat they sent me the attached email detailing the "TWO" fees (and ongoing) they charged. I immediately went to their website to cancel my membership, although it was well hidden having to drill down several layers to find the cancel button. In fairness they did provide me with an email confirmation of the cancellation. I then placed a call to their North American customer service department. After explaining the issue, their CS rep advised that the membership fee was merely an authorization that was placed on my credit card and since I canceled my membership within 7 days (in my case within 30 minutes) the membership fee would not be processed. It was! When I texted customer service to put in writing the confirmation for not processing the membership fee, I received emails from just answer acknowledging the mix-up in the service support issues on my account, and that no support service was ever provided to me but stated they would charge me the membership fee anyway. Beware. This company is nothing but a scam. The small fee is there only to hide the larger immediate membership fee!

Tip for consumers:
Don't use it. They only offer the small fee to distract you so you won't read the small print declaring the higher fee. A honest company that is prepared to offer quality support would be up front about the details of their fees and not hide behind a 'trick' fee.
