Never returns phone calls or emails. Doesn't show up when he says he will, nor does he call to tell you he's not coming. Wants paid before project is started and contract signed, yet won't show up to get paid. Poor experience.
I was scheduled to have someone give me a quote and no one showed up....waiting for a no show is not how I wanted to spend my day off. Even tried to call and verify that I had the correct time and no one answered or called me back!
