BEDFORD, TX:TopTech Electric’s contractors join other essential workers who continue to offer services throughout the coronavirus pandemic. The Dallas and Fort Worth electrician is doing its part to keep customers safe and is asking customers to do the same.

Dallas County remains under a stay-at-home order that directs residents to only leave their homes for essential activities. While many businesses have been ordered to cease all activities, electricians are among businesses considered essential.

For businesses that do stay open, that means they carry the responsibility of taking precautions to keep both workers and customers safe.
“We understand that the pandemic doesn’t stop things from breaking down. Rest assured that we remain ready to handle your electrical issues,” said owner Mike White. “We continue to monitor the COVID-19 situation closely and take safety precautions suggested by the CDC and local officials.”

TopTech Electric technicians wash their hands before and after entering customers’ homes. Technicians wear masks, gloves and booties upon entering homes.
“We ask people to understand that we will no longer be shaking their hands during the pandemic,” said White, who said technicians limit in-person interaction as much as possible. “A simple wave will have to do.”

TopTech monitors the health of its technicians. Any technicians who show symptoms of being ill are told to remain at home.
These steps help TopTech’s technicians avoid spreading the virus as they enter customers’ homes. In return, White asks customers to also take steps.
He requests that customers let the electrician know if anyone in the house is feeling ill or has symptoms related to COVID-19. Management reserves the decision to deny service to a customer to ensure both workers and customers remain safe. If a household member is sick, the contractor may first suggest rescheduling the job for a later date depending on what service is required.

“We do not want to put customers or our workers at risk,” White said. “That includes other customers that our technicians may visit after completing repairs at your home.”

Technicians have the right to alert management and refuse service at the door if they have concerns.
TopTech Electric’s highly trained electricians offer a wide array of quality electrical services. The company offers a 100 percent satisfaction guarantee so that customers know repairs and electrical equipment installations will be completed correctly.

How do we address the growing anxiety among people about the supply of essential food items? How do we stop people from panic buying? Given that India is under a 21-day lockdown to combat the COVID-19 pandemic, we have seen people hoarding and panic buying with the fear of products going off the shelf. 

To address this issue while also ensuring that people stay home,  iD Fresh Food has launched a unique ‘Store Finder’ feature on its website today to empower customers with updated information on iD products available at the open stores near them and the exact quantity of fresh iD products supplied today. In fact, the Store Finder also has ‘Notify Me’ feature that will provide daily SMS alerts when fresh stocks get refilled at your neighbourhood open stores.

India’s largest fresh food brand is working hard  – ensuring that ready-to-cook fresh Indian food is easily available across key markets. And that the customers are well-informed about what to find where and when. 

Commenting on the initiative, PC Musthafa, CEO and co-founder of iD Fresh Food, said, “Over the last week, customers have been complaining about grocery stores being shut and unavailability of products on e-grocery platforms. We have witnessed cases of panic buying. There’s so much uncertainty and worry…We want our customers to know that the team at iD is working hard and our products are available at stores, thanks to our well-knit distribution network. There’s no reason to panic and hoard food. Our technology will use data to empower customers who wish to know the details of iD products available at the open stores near them. We have a notification feature that will send you SMS alerts daily. Our effort is to ensure that people don’t need to get out of their homes unnecessarily, hunting for healthy food options anymore. Please stay home, stay safe, and eat healthy, fresh food.” 

Musthafa, further added, “Our customers are a valued part of the iD family. Our products have been a staple in several households over the years. So, when our customers worry about what to feed their families, it’s our duty to step in with nourishing solutions. These are tough times, but we are committed to serving you healthy, fresh food. With over 30k retailers across 45 cities as part of our network, we are looking to extend the fresh stocks alert feature for fruits and vegetables supplied by other vendors too.”

“Each one of us needs to prioritise personal health and wellbeing to ensure that as a society we are well-equipped to win the fight against this pandemic. Let’s not ignore the importance of a healthy diet. For, there’s nothing more potent than fresh home-cooked food to energise the body, mind and soul. We’ll brave this challenge together,” Musthafa added. 

Here’s how the new ‘Store Finder’ feature works:

April is Financial Literacy Month. CreditGUARD of America will be holding two free webinars online on 15th of April, 2020 and 30th of April, 2020 called The Simplest Ways to Make the Best of a Financial Crisis in response to COVID-19 Pandemic. The economic fallout from the coronavirus pandemic could be profound. Many people are already losing jobs, with unemployment jumping at a record pace. Even those who stay employed may face reduced hours or uncertainty about how long their paychecks will continue. If you’re in a situation where you can’t pay all your bills, or likely to be there soon, you may have some options to limit the damage to your finances.

This webinar will reveal important information about ways of managing debts during times of financial hardships and what are all the options available to consumers facing financial hardships and illustrate a step by step process for getting out of debt 3 to 5 times faster or finding relief.

When it comes to being financially literate, Americans think they are making the grade.  In a recent survey conducted by CreditGUARD of America, 59 percent of those polled gave themselves an A or a B on their money know-how.  However, Andrea Lavin of CreditGUARD of America says when she actually starts to quiz people, those grades falter.

Andrea Lavin, a certified financial counselor of over 15 years, will be leading the presentation and will share some practical tips and tricks on budgeting and finding the credit counselling they need now! Asked about this highly educational one hour webinar, Andrea Lavin said that this webinar is a chance for people to have a breath of fresh air as they will be receiving lots of useful information and are able to manage their debts with all the tools and services available to them from financial institutions and creditors. They can ask questions live and get information not easily available through creditors or other for-profit financial organizations.

Since 1991 CreditGUARD of America, an A+ BBB rated non-profit credit counseling agency, has been providing reliable credit counseling and debt management services to American consumers across the country. Their highly trained counselors advise consumers on personal budgeting, debt consolidation without home equity loans or credit card promos or even without filing bankruptcy. Understanding these credit solutions and what other better alternatives are out there can help consumers get through financial difficulties. Credit and money management is key to creating a stable, financial future. For consumers in debt collection, it is important for them to know their consumer rights and how to spot collection harassment so debt collectors don’t take advantage and even how to stop the collection calls entirely. CreditGUARD of America encourages consumers to enhance their personal financial literacy through their educational resources.
