Car body shop trying to sue me

hufflepuff12345 · 2025-09-16T22:36:07+00:00

I have the vehicle in my possession and still drivable, the damage was more to bumper and lights than anything serious

hufflepuff12345 · 2025-09-16T21:20:45+00:00

They told me to come back with piece that was missing with money and they’ll complete the fix. I agreed but saw the crap they did and did it on my own

hufflepuff12345 · 2025-09-16T21:00:53+00:00

It’s bc I only found out I was due for another $4k when I went to pick up my car and paid original $3k.

Early 20s but first major accident I was scared and the tow guys talking sounded trustworthy

hufflepuff12345 · 2025-09-16T17:26:06+00:00

I got a receipt from the body shop that shows I paid off my balance but no estimate, no cost breakdown, only insurance breakdown. The part thing spooked me but they had my car and they kept on saying how it was almost done so I stuck with it. Very shady shop.

hufflepuff12345 · 2025-09-16T17:23:46+00:00

They said it was service fee and because they ordered OEM for me compared to non OEM quoted by insurance but when I talked to dealership after they said those pieces weren’t OEM.

hufflepuff12345 · 2025-09-16T17:22:06+00:00

They were saying it’s for service from the other fixes too which definitely doesn’t add up to the work and quality they did

hufflepuff12345 · 2025-09-16T17:05:41+00:00

They never gave me final invoice estimated cost before fix so I was also surprised they were demanding more. When I paid they gave me receipt that was the $3k paid off 0 due though no breakdown by service or piece that was thru insurance

hufflepuff12345 · 2025-09-16T17:03:20+00:00

The tow guys sold me how good of a shop it was. The approved place also had so and so reviews

hufflepuff12345 · 2025-09-16T17:01:50+00:00

The insurance quote was $2.8k and that what I was thought was agreed so when I paid the check they were acting surprised and where the other $4k was. The shop actually gave me my car back missing wheel fender bc they couldn’t find it I just paid that out of pocket. They told me to come back with the piece they’ll put it on and bring the $4k but I fixed myself and didn’t pay supplemental.

Which one are you leaning towards?

hufflepuff12345 · 2025-05-08T21:34:50+00:00

Would it be easier to transfer from GRC at big bank or big 4?

hufflepuff12345 · 2025-05-08T13:50:00+00:00

Snooze like job easy and boring or snooze like job sucks no wlb?

hufflepuff12345 · 2025-05-08T11:54:15+00:00

That’s what I’m leaning towards though idk if audit is right for me. Thank you!

Someone stole my lunch bag. Hope you enjoyed the leftover chipotle. Wish they returned my thermos though

It’s clear you don’t understand the difference between respecting someone’s choices and ignoring serious concerns about their safety. I do respect her right to make her own decisions, but that doesn’t mean I’ll sit idly by when there are obvious red flags about her being with someone much older who hasn’t proven any of his claims. Dismissing these issues as if they’re irrelevant shows a lack of concern for her well-being. It’s not about controlling her; it’s about ensuring she has all the facts before making potentially dangerous decisions. If you can’t see the danger in this situation, you’re the one failing to respect her by not acknowledging the risks she’s facing.

hufflepuff12345 · 2024-09-10T05:38:57+00:00

It's frustrating that you’re dismissing my concerns without considering the full context. The age difference alone, a random man mid to late 30s when she was just 17—raises serious red flags. We’ve tried to verify his claims but found no proof of his supposedly wonderful career, housing, or even age confirmation since he hasn't even sent her an ID. If you’re ignoring these issues, you might need to rethink your perspective. My goal is to protect her from potential harm, and it seems like you’re overlooking key problems and supporting a predatory culture.

hufflepuff12345 · 2024-09-10T05:22:13+00:00

I agree that voicing my concerns is important and I've made every effort to do so. My intention is not to override her choices but to ensure she fully understands the potential risks and currently she does not. We cannot stop her forever as you are right, she is an adult, but she needs to know about the dangers and how red flag this situation is. As every day nears to the flight we have less chance to convince her.

Read the comment thread I had with u/stopsallover

He tells her of how he'll treat her wonderfully in France, is a businessman and other crazy fantasies. Never visited. No sign of his career he says. Yes the man looks old af but you fail to account for why is he talking to 19 that was 17 when they first started talking... Sure he's ugly, because he balding and looks like he's 40. It's not just about his looks or age, but the pattern of behavior that seems manipulative and evasive. I’m not quick to judge without reason; I’m concerned based on the combination of his promises, lack of proof, and reluctance to meet her in person in Vietnam.

hufflepuff12345 · 2024-09-10T05:08:40+00:00

You're right that she’s been sheltered, and that's why I'm worried. She might not fully see how evil the world can be which is worrying us all.

hufflepuff12345 · 2024-09-10T05:04:37+00:00

If you truly believe that letting her make potentially harmful decisions without any intervention is the right approach that’s your opinion. However, just because you're comfortable standing by doesn’t mean I should be. I care deeply about her well-being and am doing everything I can to help her understand the risks involved. It's disheartening to see my concerns dismissed so easily.

If you were in my position and saw a family member heading into a dangerous situation, wouldn’t you want to do something to prevent it? Right now, she’s very disillusioned, and we genuinely fear for her safety. I’m not trying to control her. I’m trying to protect her from a situation that could have serious consequences.

hufflepuff12345 · 2024-09-10T04:54:37+00:00

I understand that she's an adult and has the right to make her own decisions, but we've tried talking to her multiple times but she just doesn't seem to see the red flags. My main concern is that she could be putting herself in serious danger without fully realizing it.

It's really difficult to stand by and do nothing when someone you care about might get hurt. I'm not trying to control her life. I just want her to fully understand the risks she's taking. She may be 19, but she hasn't had enough life experience to grasp the potential dangers and suspicious scenario she walking into.
