      On 02/07/2022 at about 1pm I called A-Star Locksmith in North Salt Lake UT as I had locked my keys in my car. When the service picked up, I asked how much it would cost for the locksmith's help. The operator informed me that the locksmith would call me and tell me the cost. The locksmith called me, when I asked him how much the service would cost he told me that he was almost to my location and would tell me upon arrival. Upon arrival, two men got out of a car, (no logos or ways I could tell they were from a-star locksmiths) they started walking towards my car and again I asked him how much this would cost. One man then told me $185. After retrieving my keys I asked him how to pay, he told me to Venmo him directly. He then said that he was adding a $75 service fee on to the original charge. I tried to explain that I had asked multiple times what the cost would be and he withheld that information until he had already started the job. I also mentioned that he had not disclosed there would be an extra service fee. He brushed off any complaints that I had. Seeing as I am a young female, talking to two men, I felt like I had no choice but to Venmo him directly even though he was jacking the price up. Later when attempting to contact the business, the only number listed on the website is for a call center. The call center refused to give me the number of the actual business. Overall, I felt taken advantage of and frankly a bit scared.The locksmith seemed to be manipulating the predicament to his gain.

      Called this locksmith since they were close and I thought they would be fast. Also the reviews seemed high. Called at 12:37. They guy kept getting lost over and over and I had to keep texting him the address of the location. This was at about 1:15. Even sent locations of near by places and buildings. Do you not understand how ****** maps work? They showed up at finally at 1:31.He told me it would be $49 for the service fee. If he had to do something additional it would be $200 and if he had to do something even more and he warned me it could bend or break the door it would be and additional $250. The guy used 2 air wedge bags and a long stick to unlock the door. Took him ***** minutes and he charged me the full amount!! $499!!!I couldn't quite understand what I was getting into or what he was saying because of his bad English. Which isn't the problem, but it was hard to understand him and I think he took advantage of it and the situation and overcharged me. Then he didn't have card swipe, which I think they should of said something ahead of time. I told him I could do venmo. He didn't seem to want to do that at first. Wanted to do Zelle, which I don't have. Also wanted the name of my bank. Finally he was able to do venmo, which really didn't take him that long to get up.I'm severely disappointed in myself for not asking more information. He kind of would give up when I asked questions as well and I didn't understand.Don't be like me and get swindled and pay too much. Get a quote from them first and or shop around. It *****, I know. But I really do thing they take advantage.
