Do not give Newtown Electronics your credit card # if you request them to come out to do any work for you. Please deal with them in checks.

I called David to do some work on my bell. I had requested that he call me before doing the work as I was out of town and there was a tenant in  the house.  I had approved $120 of initial visit on my credit card to estimate the work but they started the  work without talking to me first then did all this extra work without my approval then charged me for the work!! I never agreed on the amount  charged! David Funk is a sneaky guy, please be careful if you are going to use him.

I had estimated the charge would be around $150 to fix my doorbell, instead he charged $467.99 on my credit card without my approval. I made the mistake of giving him my credit card number - which I said he was to use only for the initial charge and had requested that he call me for an estimate and send me a bill so that I could mail him a check for tax records. I have the charge currently in dispute with my credit card  company as well as I am filing a report with the Bureau of Consumer  Affairs of Pennsylvania.

Here is a summary again of what David Funk did of the work request:

I had only approved the amount of $120 for a bell fixed on my house. I  had requested that they charge me $120 for the initial visit on my credit card and then cost of the bell and I had requested that they talk to me on the phone before  installing the bell with the total estimation.

They never gave me the estimate and they fixed two other things in the house that I had NEVER requested for and they charged me $467.99 without my approval.
