Fake Online Locksmiths with high prices...

​When you need locksmith services, you think to yourself that you can trust the local locksmith company. Some companies will tell you a price of $19.00 and up for their lock and key services. When arriving at your location, the price all the sudden goes through the roof with services costing as much as $350.00 for a simple lockout. Most of these companies are not licensed, insured, or even bonded in Texas. Make sure when calling a locksmith in White Settlement that you get the total price and tell the dispatch office you won't be paying a dollar more for their services. You will hear them tell you they need to observe the problem, service call, Gas charges, etc…Most legal run locksmith companies know what they're doing and won't have to charge for observing the lock.

They are call centers and are often out of state, sometimes in other countries that use a high-tech online employees to manipulate Google into posting that they are a local based locksmith company in White Settlement, TX. They show them as physical locations in your area. These locksmiths, known as crooks, keep a group of poorly trained so called locksmiths on call 24 hours for any lock and key emergency you may have.After your information is forwarded to the tech, usually via text, one of low life scum bag subcontractors jumps in his car and heads to your location with just a toolbox with a limited supply of tools and locks. That is when the trouble starts. They immediately begin to drill NOT PICK your home or car lock and screw ir up. If they were properly trained locksmiths they would know how to gain access without destroying the lock. These foreign locksmith companies will then charge you and make you go to an ATM for cash only. Then you sit there with a bill for $350 and a $7.99 cheap home depot lock on your front door which doesn't even match the existing hardware on your door. Imagine screwing 10 people that day for a total of $3500…You are not the only individual that got scammed! Some people have been charged over $900 for a simple lockout. Just take precaution when calling any service provider as they are in other service industries as well. The funny part is KARMA…Karma will always catch up to these companies whether it's sickness, jail, or  an accident…I strictly believe in treating people right and not taking advantage of someone in need of help. Real locksmiths laugh and giggle at these companies because they just chase their tail and the money does them no good. They can't even unlock a door…Imagine how that feels to not even be a locksmith in the industry. Low self esteem I guess..The get rich quick scam is coming to an end fellas:)…I guess there is always barber college……...
