On first Sundays, The Augusta Chronicle publishes a list of area companies that have unanswered or unresolved complaints through the Better Business Bureau of Central Georgia and the CSRA Inc.

The BBB is an affiliate of the national dispute-resolution organization and operates in a 41-county area between Augusta and Macon.

The information is available from the BBB at centralgeorgia.bbb.org by clicking on "For Consumers."

The organization focuses on consumer-to-business and business-to-business transactions that involve the advertisement or sale of products and services.

The BBB uses complaints to create "Reliability Reports" on companies that consumers can check before deciding to do business with a particular company.

Listed are unanswered and unresolved complaints for area companies over the last 30 days.

"Unanswered" means the company did not respond to the BBB in an attempt to resolve the issue.

"Unresolved" means the company failed to resolve the issue through the BBB's dispute-resolution services.
