AC Installation & Follow Up Repair
It is this type of review that disappoints me...
All of our actions in dealing with this customer were taken with the best of intentions. The only thing we were focused on doing was to resolve the issue. It was only when she found out she actually had to pay for the repair that she became very unreasonable. It's unfortunate....
We made the assumption that there was an issue with the air conditioning system and were going to resolve it under warranty to ensure the customer was satisfied. When we arrived we found a faulty circuit board on the furnace and we replaced it. The furnace was installed by another company a few years ago so the circuit board was under manufacturers' warranty, however, the labour was not under warranty.
When the service technician was dispatched he was told the call was under full warranty. Following the repair he called the office to follow up and we realized that it was not a warranty call as the issue was with the furnace. It was at this point that we contacted the customer to explain the situation.
The customer was very unreasonable. This is a repair that she would have had to pay for whether it was done by our company or any other company. It quickly became obvious that she was trying to take advantage of the situation in order to get a free repair. She was not even willing to accept our offer of 50% off the repair in order to help her out.
The following day I spoke to her husband and explained the situation. Without question he agreed that our offer of 50% off was more than fair. He asked that we send him an invoice and told me he would pay for it.
