Mobile Mechanic Protection
How we helped a mobile field mechanic recover from unfair reviews caused by customer billing misunderstandings
The Challenge
Customer billing misunderstandings led to unjust negative reviews
The Billing Dispute Problem
Mobile field mechanics face unique challenges that customers often don't understand. Emergency calls, after-hours service, holiday rates, and field conditions all affect pricing, but customers expected standard shop rates. This led to 9 unjust reviews claiming "overcharging" and "hidden fees" when the pricing was actually transparent and fair.
Customer Misunderstandings
- Expected shop rates for emergency calls
- Didn't understand after-hours surcharges
- Confused by holiday and weekend rates
- Misunderstood field condition adjustments
Business Impact
- Rating dropped from 4.7 to 3.2 stars
- 60% decrease in emergency call bookings
- Customers questioning all pricing
- Word-of-mouth reputation damaged

Client Testimonial
"The biggest challenge as a mobile mechanic is customers not understanding our pricing structure. They expect shop rates but don't realize we're bringing a whole shop to them. When customers left bad reviews claiming we 'overcharged,' it was devastating. Crux Experts helped us create clear pricing explanations and got those unjust reviews removed. Now customers understand our rates upfront, and we've seen a 65% improvement in customer satisfaction."
