It looks like I found the right thread. I have a possible idea for my own small business, and I'm not sure if it's the best idea.

If you have a problem with a company and it's product or service, odds are pretty good your gonna run into a brick wall. Phone calls aren't returned, appointments are missed and transactions remain un-refunded. Sure, you could spend hours and hours on the phone trying to get your problem resolved, but if you are like everybody else, you arent't gonna have the time. This is where I come in.

For a one-time flat fee, I will work on your behalf to get you what you want. Samsung is refusing warranty service for your fridge? I can get it fixed. Best Buy is bungling your appliance installation? I can get it straightened out. Macy's says you can't bring back that dress? I can get you a refund.

What do you guys think? Is this a service you would be interested in paying for? Or am I brain dead schmuck with a bad idea?

It's a weird space to be in, and you'll be rubbing elbows with tons of shady operators but it might be doable. The problem is that there's a lot of wannabe Rip Off Report style sites working this angle, and they're basically extortion rackets dressed up as consumer protection operations. You might want to check out these guys too, they seem to be doing something similar:

:sigh: Well, poo poo. I guess it's true, every idea HAS been thought of.
