[quote=Anonymous]My mom offered to pay for a service that we can't afford and would have done without for our upcoming move. We would have just done the work ourselves and budgeted our time accordingly. She gave no guidelines for which service, just said to let her know how much to reimburse us. We did and she didn't complain about the price. However, today,s he found out that we found the business online and she's objecting because it doesn't sound like a real company to her. I tried to show her the company's website, BBB info, Yelp Reviews, Angie's List, etc. She doesn't want to look at any of it and says she's disappointed in us for involving her in something that might be a scam. I'm tempted to tell her that this is 2017 and no one has time to flip through the Yellow Pages to find an ad for a mom and pop business, but DH wants to tell her to forget about repaying us. We would take a nasty hit to this month's finances though or incur interest on a credit card. I'm just returning to work so we have no reserves to draw against. I find moving so stressful and this was her way of reducing my stress until it turned into her Luddite-martyr drama fest. [/quote]
