The last time I called a locksmith they told me it would be 100 dollars over the phone. When he came out he told me it would be 400. It wasn't even a deadbolt just a regular front door.

I'm still mad about that.



was it one of these companies?

Wow good find. It sure sounds like it was.


Did you tell him to fuck off and that you'd call someone else?


I wish I had. It was a rental property and I had driven an hour to meet him there :-(


Oh ouch :( Then I guess your only recourse would be to tell him you'd only pay him the $100 you agreed upon, although I'm sure that wouldn't work if he told you about the increased cost before he unlocked the door.
