Some are more competent than others.
In this case, neither is worth anything.
The CA says at most "They verified ownership of a domain at a very low
standard of proof." The BBB says "They pay us and they responded to
all complaints and said they did the right thing."
Neither of them is on the hook for having bad customers, nor will
either be likely to say bad things about its customers (which are
those who pay it).
