ok ,consider me unlucky ... evryday i walk out of my door i see locksmith's stickers , then yesterday i REALLY forgot my keys !
No choice call the number and this silly man quoted me $80.00 !
ok fine , i told him just come i have no choice ...promised 30 mins in the end waited for almost 2 hrs ...
When i called him some more he angry said something like he cannot control the traffic ...wtf ? 2 hours to control traffic ? knn when he reached never even say "sorry" ...
then told me cannot unlock my Padlock ... need to bolt cut .
What ? i asked him ? China 3 ring padlock cannot pick? wtf again ?
then he went down took a big bolt cutter cut my lock and then ... say my woooden door also cannot open , need to drill ...
In the end i paid like 80 + another 80 for replacment of my wooden door lock.
And the best thing, after i paid he didnt even ask to check my IC ... makes me wonders if ANYONE call to open other people door, they will do it ???
After that my friend called and i told him my story and this is what he says :
theese so call "sticker locksmiths" have no licence, and no skills , and they anyhow charge too ...
next time either call 100 or yellowpages 1900 777777 or to the police post ask them for a locksmith no. better ...
Is there something i caould do to STOP all these Annoying locksmith's stickers ?
by the way now i realised EVEN the back of my metal gate got their stickers !
I have already reported to the police but they say they can't do anything ask me engage a lawyer! wtf ....
This morning i cpmplain to HDB , even they said they can't do anything !
What next ?

When the price is $80 you should have estimated whether it is worth it.
You panicked and was flustered.
So you did not consider carefully.
Next time remain calm, and decide how you can break the locks yourself and replace them at a cheaper cost.
If I am you and am told 30 mins but he is not here in an hour, I will call him back and ask him to fly kite.
LOL ...who are u gonna call when u get locked out?
