My Mother hired a licensed electrician to install 1 ethernet drop in her home office. She already had a preexisting tp-link setup in the basement. She showed me the invoice today which totaled $958.00! I’m shocked and disgusted. Feels like they took advantage of my Mother.

I told my Mother to call them first thing tomorrow morning to see if they possibly made a mistake. If not, I advised her to never do business with that company again. This seems like highway robbery. Is there anything else she can do?

    I think was all the posts here are missing is that she hired a licensed electrician. If it would have been one plug that would have been a similar cost without anyone batting an eye. The money is not for the knock, it’s knowing where to knock. I wish I could say I’m defending them because I’m an electrician but I’m not. We lose work to those guys all the time, and they never have the right low voltage trainings.
