This office is a joke. They are glorified to take calls. Mandy sat on the phone and spoke to me as if I'm not understanding what she's asking. The WHOLE OFFICE needs to get removed. They are not helpful. I'll start and finish my dispute in court. THIS OFFICE IS A JOKE AND A WASTE OF TIME!

I recently filed a complaint against a company. I had proof of everything that was putting me and my son’s health and safety at risk. After the company submitted there response the case was closed and the response was considered accurate. There was nothing else done. The consumer complaint analyst did not ask me any questions, for any proof, and that was it. My advice is take it to magistrate court or seek a lawyer!

I got fleeced out of $253 for a deposit and wanted to move might camping site at Hilton Head Harbor RV Resort & Marina. I had Covid, and because of that the client changed their mind about our appointments. We changed our schedule with two other camping resorts, but HHHRV Resort & Marina kept all but $3 of our deposit. South Carolina Dept of Consumer Affairs was absolutely worthless. The wrote a letter to the campground, the campground's well educated lawyer wrote a response. Both entities are USELESS!

Give the department of consumer affairs a call. The services division will take your information. If this issue is a scam contact the identity theft unit.

Can a store determine that their tax-free weekend start on the Saturday instead of the state mandated Friday 12a.m. till Sunday midnight? I went to a store in Lexington SC for school supplies and was told their tax-free days were Saturday and Sunday.

If any of your lenders are going to charge over 17.99% interest, you will need to get a South Carolina Max Rate Schedule. You will state what your highest interest rate will be on this document. I would set it a bit above what your think your highest lender will charge to give yourself some wiggle room.

How long does it take for consumer affairs to answer a HOA/management company complaint? What fines warnings are given to the Management company and board? Are the complaints taken seriously by the HOA and Management Company?

On average, our complaints are resolved in 30 days or under, but some complaints may take longer to close than others. SCDCA cannot give any fines or warnings to HOAs because we do not regulate or license HOAs in the state of SC. If you're interested in learning more about HOAs and the laws that apply in SC, we do have an HOA education page that may be helpful: https://consumer.sc.gov/HOA-Ed

I don't bother with cable I just have Netflix. Cable gets you hooked and keep on raising the prices.
