Advertising Your BBB Rating
Most
of you should be aware that as of January 1, 2009, the BBB system began giving
letter grades to companies (A – F) doing away with the terminology of
satisfactory and unsatisfactory. A BBB
Accredited Business must have a rating of no lower than a B. For our BBB Accredited Businesses that have
a lower rating, you will have one year to bring your rating up to meet our
standards. You now have the ability to
advertise your BBB rating but only under certain circumstances.
