River City Door Company of Columbus Georgia Lied to my face

These guys showed up to my house and forced me to call the cops on them. I can't believe they would actively advertise as another company, show up at my house pretending to be them, and then have the audacity to claim here that they don't use this practice. Scott Ammerman knows damned well that he does this, and his guy got a police report written on him for showing up at my house under false pretenses. River City Door Company totally misrepresents themselves as their competitors and then has the nerve to lie to the customer's face as though we won't care. Absolutely the worst business practice in Columbus, Georgia

River City Door - Garage Door Company In Columbus Georgia, Uses False Advertisement

Thought I was calling the highly rated Overhead Door Co. of Columbus Ga because of their Google Ad, but by mistake dialed River City Door Company. Matt showed up promptly for a very rainy day. I needed a new opener which he quoted over $400 which was high compared to a quote I had gotten a number of years ago, but I let it slide because they were suppose to be the reputable company. Twenty minutes later he tells me I need a new spring and that is another $250. When he is done, I start to make out the check and he stops me and tells me that the check should be made out to River City Door. I told him I didn't call them and he said due to a large number of calls, they picked up the overflow. I have found this to be completely and totally false. He uses the brand names of other companies in his advertisement, and it is absolutely dishonest. I will make a complaint to all agencies that I need to. I ultimately accept the blame for calling the wrong company due to the misleading ad, but I am concerned that the company is placing ads with other company names to begin with. This is absolutely a dishonest marketing practice. The only thing positive is the door is working and is quite quiet, and the repairman left his wire strippers. Apparently I am not the first to have this issue with them https://www.pissedconsumer.com/company/river-city-door/river-city-door-of-columbus-georgia-pretended-to-be-aanother-company-201405****8292.html http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/river-city-door/midland-georgia-31820/river-city-door-harvey-lumber-river-city-door-both-spoofing-and-pretending-to-be-over-114****
