I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ***, and find that this resolution would be satisfactory to me. I will wait until for the business to perform this action and, if it does, will consider this complaint resolved.I would find it much more respectable of the business if they would have taken responsibility and provided an apology instead of "blaming" the manufacturer. At no time were we told it was a delay from the manufacturer, we were just told for months that this person, or that person is handling or will call. I suspect they failed to file the rebate accordingly based on how they have "dropped the ball" on a number of issues. Again, fix the problem, apology - not delay the problem and delay

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ***, and have determined that this proposed action would not resolve my complaint. For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.Orangutan did send out a crew to repair the drywall that was removed at my cost due to the water damage. The drywall and floor board repair was done to my satisfaction but I am still $out of pocket due to Orangutan initially refusing to remove and repair the drywall. The removal of the drywall was completed by Preferred Choice Restoration, whom Orangutan sent to my home to check the damage. Orangutan then refused to pay for the removal and repair of the damage. Due to the growth of mold I had PCR remove and treat the affected areas. I was charged $150 for that work

the necessary equipment to make sure that it would not happen again so we made another appointment to come back and make sure that the line was still attached and applied the necessary product to make sure that it would not come apart againWhen we sell any package unit a crane lift is added to the cost of the jobThis job the crane was not needed so we will refund the customer back the $he was charged in the contractThere are many things that can go wrong in a retrofit install of this kind and when there are problems we do our best to correct them in a timely mannerWe do not believe that 10% off the contract price is really fair in this case but we do think that there should be some compensationWe will refund the customer the $for the crane that was not used and also agree to pay this customers electric bill for the month of May which is when the supply was detached from the unitWe will contact the customer to get a copy of the bill and settle this dispute

Very Suspicious BehaviorToday I had my annual Heating check Preventive Maintenance Inspection for my homeWe have two Central HVAC units with two condensers mounted at the side of the houseThe tech was suppose to do the "heating" system check as the AC system check was done in the springAnyway, we is outside at the AC Condenser units and comes back inside the home and says that he says the AC inoperableI found that hard to believe since it was operating just fine before he arrivedHe said he could troubleshoot the problem for me with diagnostics, but that it would cost $I said no, button it up and I'll call the Home Warranty company for repairsHe then leftHe didn't bother to check the second unit and I'm still scratching my head why he is wanting to run AC checks when he is suppose to be doing a heating checkBased upon immediately jumping to the diagnostic fee of $is suspiciousI believe the technician may have broke or disconnected something just to get the $fee out of us but was disheartened when he found out I had a home warranty company that would take care of itI will be extremely aware and observant the next time a tech comes to my home to workUnfortunately I have another years left on my Preventive Maintenance Service contract with this companyI wish now that I could get my money backI think they are just trying to get more money out of customers
My experience with Orangutan has been horrible , frustrating and infuriating I have had good neutral and 6-bad experiencesThey have set appointments and don't keep them, they order parts and don't call to let you know the part is in when can we come out , and they lie ( oh the part just came in - I work at the post office it doesn't take weeks for it to come in the mail I guarantee that ) the company that I started with later merged with Orangutan , the only people who I would recommend them to is someone who I hate , and I don't have enemies that bad I would never recommend them to family or friends Again it's not been or bad experiences it's been many I'm not the dramatic type just the opposite but I would rather shoot myself in the foot than to deal with them unfortunately they have my warranty but it's been so bad that on occasion I paid another company to fix the problem , and every time they come I think of doing it every time If your thinking of calling them for service just think of how pleasurable it would be to shoot yourself in the foot , that'll be your experience
I was very pleased with Dave B*** of this companyWe thought we had a water heater leakHe arranged to come out the same dayAfter looking at the situation he determined it wasn't the water heater, but the AC condenserWe were happy that he could repair/replace this and helped us with other problems we had been havingIt was nice having a pleasant and experienced worker to handle an unexpected problem

Had them put in a new air unit Shortly after had a problem They come out to fix itthen shortly after that they told me I needed a txv I told them I would not pay for it because they did damage with a blowtorch to the unit They agree to fix OK fine 2yrs late I was told by LUIS a tech all they did was replace the txv powerhead Now I have to pay $to fix itthey lied to me I had someone else fix it for $
I left a message fro *** *** on 10/31/at am apologizing for one of my employees being rude. I advise her we will be send her in the mail today an apology letterand a copy of the records she requested
The manufacturer did reimburse us for the part that is what the warranty is for. The cost of labor, Freon, administration, fuel, insurance, and all other relative cost are built into our pricing not to mention profitThe fact that we did not itemize the invoice does not discount the cost to replace the part. Mr*** has every right to shop the cost of a repair before the work is done. His warranty can be honored by any
authorized Rheem dealer. I will offer a $customer good will credit from the repairs made but this is a one time offer and after today there will be no offers made
I left a message for *** *** to discuss but no return call yet. She seems to be asking about a service call we did in November of 2012. If that is the service call she is asking about then we did charge her a $diagnostic fee. I am willing to refund the $she paid
even though the *** *** Warranty does have a diagnostic fee charge. The allegation that Orangutan techs would "destroy" her unit is far fetched. The *** *** does specify that the unit must be maintained yearly in order to keep the warranty in effect. Any company can perform the maintenance as long as there is written proof from a licensed contractor. As far as I know Orangutan is the only company left in Arizona that still honors the *** *** Warranty. In order to put a claim through *** ***, we are the only contractor that can take care of thatIf she chooses to have another company repair her unit they will not be able to utilize the *** *** benefits
