I remember when I was 10 years old my mom got locked out of her bedroom, and called a locksmith after trying to figure it out herself. It took them an hour or two to come, and in that time my 10 year old self managed to pick the lock with a hairpin and a match stick. Even after doing the whole thing myself, my mom called them to cancel the call but they showed up at our house and she had to pay him 80$ for just coming there and not having to do anything. It was ridiculous. We found him in the yellow pages, if only online reviews were as popular back then hopefully we could have avoided such scammers.

There are crooks like this in every industry, taking advantage of people know dont know better or who are desperate. Most of these companies get away with it because there's no agency to enforce standards and business practice. Atleast where i live. From a moral perspective I wouldnt ever be able to do this to someone and can't believe these people actually sleep at night.

I had a blocked toilet once and called a plumber. They said it would be £45 call out. Nice man, he tried with a plunger, failed, and then started to tell me the different machines they had. This one is £250, this one is £350. These prices were nearly 20 years ago. I made it quite clear I didn't have that kind of cash and had expected to pay just the £45 call out, which I had ready for him. I think he felt genuinely sorry for me and questioned his life choices. He said "Well... Sometimes you can get it unblocked just by standing on a chair with a bucket of water and throwing it into the toilet in one go." It worked. I thanked him profusely, and he knew and I knew and we both knew that we both knew that this was a scam that he was not wanting to do that night. I was genuinely grateful to that man for showing me he did have a heart. It's tough when you're trying to earn a living and your company expects you to be more ruthless than you really are.

I know nothing about locks but as soon as a I saw that toolbox for setting the lock I knew it was more art than science and it's clear how much time and work goes into becoming a locksmith. Holy moly that's an impressive array of tools/pieces.

At end of the day due the amount of false reviews compared to real reviews he can go after the company claiming they are creating and or paying someone to create a large amount of false reviews and stealing people’s identities as they did with his picture and address. And because of the sheer amount of stolen identities such as his that the company paid for in one way or another to attract more business he is suing in part for knowingly stealing his identity and using it for financial gain. And the only question really then is after he contacts law enforcement for identity theft, should he file a large lawsuit for every stolen identity and also what amount of money is he filing suit for.

man this episode was good!! loved it!

its the norm if they see you in a small low rent building they'll try and get you for less, but nine times out of ten you're going to have to pay for a new lock. Its crazy the amount of locksmiths who don't pick locks. In montreal they've had this reputation for a long time.

Naw some people eyes just get watery when it's cold. My cousin literally looks like he's crying every time it gets cold in chicago.

It’s a VERY common practice in the locksmith, tow truck, handyman, lawncare, delivery restaurant, and many other industries, to act as a middleman or have several DBAs. I also find it misleading and a little deceptive, but it’s completely legal, widespread, and growing. By the way, I live in Texas so it’s not a local phenomenon. Many of these companies fail because they don’t effectively “vet” their subcontractors. Others are successful and do good work.

Marketplace is a Canadian gem, love their work!
