    Mr. **** ******, or **** *******, as his legal record shows - is operating a second line of work under the *** ********** **** ** **** *** ********* **** *******. This second line of work is A-1 Stump Grinding or A-1 Tree Services - neither are filed with the state of Mississippi. On 2/14/23, I met with Mr. **** to discuss a stump grinding job of approximately 1,200 stumps to be completed for a total of $12,500.00 & an agreement was signed (photo attached). **** was insistent that he receive a 20% deposit for the work, as he would need new teeth for his equipment, etc. I explained 20% was outrageous before work started, so I paid him 10%. **** came and ground 8 of the 1,200 stumps and left claiming the ground was too wet and he wanted it to dry out. As of 3/14/23, **** has ignored all communications and is yet to return to complete any of the work. I am out of pocket $1,250.00 and cannot contact this man. I am going to be filing charges if BBB cannot assist in refunding my money for work that was to be performed. Upon looking at the A-1 Stump Grinding Facebook company page, I see another complaint from a previous "customer" claiming that Mr. **** has stolen from them as well (photo attached). It appears that I am not the first one. This man needs to be stopped.
