Do you have to pay…?

Question by Samantha: Do you have to pay…?
Okay so here’s the situation, we hired a DJ for my moms wedding reception. He is a part-time DJ I don’t even think he has a “business”, I know he just DJ’s on the weekends. He did a horrible horrible job. He did not do anything we asked him to do. 95% of the time he was outside smoking, talking to guests or horseplaying with the teenagers. He had the music blasting. It was so loud many of the guests asked him to turn it down, which he refused to do, so in turn- they left. He played a bunch of music we specifically told him not to do, and even didn’t play any music at all in some parts. Overall it was a horrible experience and it pretty much ruined my mothers reception. Are we obligated to pay him for such a horrible job? There was no contract signed, just facebook messages when we contacted him in the first place to DJ for us. He wants 150$ plus 33.5% interest fees for each week we don’t pay. (Which by the way they said nothing of this whole interest thing until now, so can they even say we have to pay them interest if it was brought up after the fact?) He turned what was supposed to be a formal event into something you see on “My redneck wedding”. In turn his wife said she was going to sue us for the amount, and if we left a bad review or told anyone what a bad job he did she would also have a lawsuit on us for slander??

You owe him the $ 150. Any court in the country would agree with that. The 33.5% interest on the other hand would be considered illegal in pretty much every state and not hold up.

Tell everyone you know ho bad he is.
