    **** , the owner, picked up my 8 x 10 area rug on Saturday ,July 6th, 2024. He charged me $580.00 to clean my area rug that was stained with pet urine. He guaranteed that he would run this area rug through a $100,000 machine and that every trace of urine would be removed and it would smell like new. GUARANTEED!! He said he only took cash or check so i paid him in cash. **** brought the area rug back to my home on or around Wednesday, July 10th, 2024. He walked this stinky and wet area rug up to my door. The rug was still soaking wet and smelled even worse than it originally did. I questioned him on this and he said he "just sprayed more deodorizer on it" and the smell would fade. I had to leave it in the garage to dry as the smell was so bad and overbearing it would make you gag. After he delivered the area rug , I have called an texted **** from my cell phone *************) almost daily at multiple numbers. **** did not pick up or return my texts that were made to these multiple numbers from my cell phone *************)The two times we have spoken I had called **** from my work phone *************) and a friend's cell phone *************). The first time we spoke was on July 24, 2024 when I called him from my work phone *************) . **** agreed to a refund of $400.00. **** stated he would contact me the following week and arrange payment that week. **** stated he wanted to refund me and that he didn't want any problems. **** , however, failed to contact me to do so and continued to ignore subsequent texts and calls from my cell phone *************). The second time we spoke was on August 7th, 2024. **** said he would Zelle me the $400.00 to my checking account. He asked that I text him my Zelle account to ************ which I did. He stated I could text him at that number and he would be prompt in returning my texts. **** failed to Zelleme the $400.00 and has ignored all texts and calls from my cell phone *************) Bad faith *************
