MARYVILLE, Tenn. (WATE) — A Blount County man has done everything he knows to do in order to get a refund from a contractor. He's called, sent emails, and even sent a demand letter, but no luck. The contractor received $2,000 a year ago, but hasn't done any work.

Aaron Bilbrey, a Navy veteran, saved enough money to have a home built on property that he owns. Bilbrey said the contractor he hired to build the home came with good references. However, after giving him a down payment, nothing happened. The contractor had moved and left no forwarding address.

There were emails, but no action was taken. We did some digging and discovered a different number for the contractor and called him. Bilbrey said the contractor will be returning the down payment.
