| - Heads Up.........Business practices are very questionable, or at least my experience with the front office (Larea) was horrible.
I was very clear that I would leave my truck for two weeks and pick up on Friday 9am. This was more than enough time to get the work done as I was traveling on business. I call Thursday afternoon, and am told that Stephan was just wrapping up a few things and would need to do a "Cold Start" on it in the morning. Larea would call after the cold start and I could come get it. 2:44PM Friday afternoon I get a message that another problem had been found. Obviously my truck was not done as stated 24 hours earlier and that it just needed a "Cold Start"........... Ready at 2:44PM Friday afternoon?
I show a week later as the other problems were fixed. I come with a "CASHIERS CHECK" from Chase Bank to pay for the work. Larea states they don't take "CASHIERS CHECKS", they only take Credit Cards, Debit Cards and Business Checks in $2,500 dollar increments. If I paid in the check manner I would then only get my truck back once all the checks cleared. Note they charge $25 per day for storage on your vehicle during this waiting period. Also Note that it would take THREE CHECKS to pay my Bill.
I go back to Chase Bank and tell them the situation, and after we all got done laughing at their business practices.......I asked to get $100 bills so that I could drop them on their counter, then realized that Green Cash wasn't a method of payment they stated. My bank offered to raise my Debit Card limit and pre-approve the amount for Dynamite Diesel to collect payment from my Debit Card. Again we laugh as there is a 4% (+) transaction fee associated with Debit Cards, AND NOTHING for Cashier's Checks.
I go back to Dynamite Diesel and hand my card to Larea, she immediately runs the Debit Card and I do everything possible not to laugh. I sign the receipt, hand it to her and congratulate her on throwing away $300.00 in the transaction fees. Smart Business Practices.......
She states that her Accountant tells them what they can and cannot accept. I state you need to get a new accountant...... I would love to hear their Accountants justification to why they don't accept "Cashier's Checks".....Maybe the Accountant is getting kickbacks from the Credit Card processing company that they conveniently arranged your services. Every other small business owner would love to get Cashier's Checks over Credit Cards, Debit Cards, Personal Checks and Business Checks as they are the simplest and most guaranteed form of payment. And the customer pays the fees to get the Cashier's Check issued.
Cashier's Check is like "CASH" as it's a transaction between the business and my bank. Not me personally........The Debit Card still allows me to call the bank and claim fraud, holding up the payment for 3-60-90 days......
