I am rejecting this response because:I am appalled at the lack of any sort of coherent response to what occurred in this instanceNO effort has been made to provide any sort of reasonable explanation for what happened.I believe the "technicians" behavior and actions was, at best, completely inept and more likely, entirely criminal in natureThey offered a MINIMUM $"band-aid" repair and promised it wouldn't last or perform as designed-- Instead, I received a COMPLETE repair (from another company) for $89.95.In response, I received essentially empty emails pretending to want to "make things right" and assurances that they are "passionate" about their company and employees apparently just not about their customers.I deserve a complete written apology from the company's owner (for both the actions of the technicians AND the incompetence of the customer service department) and an additional payment of (at least) $to cover the repair that was made as minimal restitution for the days we spent without air-conditioning.In the absence of both those items, I will do my best to ensure that NO one I know ever uses Genz-Ryan again.Thanks.(I have attached the email thread/exchange I had with G.R"customer service")

To Whom It May Concern, On November 25th we were called out to [redacted] ***’s property for the furnace not workingDuring every service call our technicians do a complete diagnosis, and then present multiple different options for solving the issues in the customer’s homeWe provide these options to the homeowner before we start any work, so the homeowner can decide what option is the best fit for their home and their budgetWe only start the work after we get the approval from the homeownersOur technician Ryan provided six different options, the homeowners decided to go with the economy option, which was the Complete High Efficiency Air Distribution System Renovation with a day warranty associated with the work we didThis option was not the least expensive option our technician provided to them, there was one option lower than the one they selectedWe received a signature approving the option they chose, and the work was completed that same dayOur office received a phone call on December 21st inquiring about the work that we did, and why our invoice was not broken down to see the parts vs laborOur customer service representative explained that Genz-Ryan is a flat rate company, which means that whenever a customer purchases any level of service from us the parts and labor are always included for one priceGenz-Ryan stands behind the service we provide and the prices we quoteThe price for the level of service that was selected by the ***’s is accurateFeel free to reach out to us with any further Natalie [redacted] Customer Service Manager ###-###-####

[redacted] Savage, MN 55378? January 11, 2018***,Thank you for sharing your concerns regarding your scheduling concerns yesterday.? ? I am sorry to learn of your frustration with our scheduling process.? When you originally contacted us, on our after-hours emergency line January 9th, you indicated that your leak was “dripping” but was not causing damage to your home.? As a result our agent scheduled your appointment as an open-ended appointment for the following day.? Our open-ended appointments are designed to get our first available technician to your home as quickly as possible on days when our pre-scheduled time slots are fully booked.? Open-ended appointments do not have a specific time slot and occur at any time throughout the business day.? As you know, a technician did arrive at your home yesterday afternoon to address your concerns.? During his visit it was determined that your leak was not related to any work that Genz-Ryan had previously performed in your home.? As a result, the service call was not covered under warranty? As a gesture of good faith we have waived the $trip charge associated with this visit.Rest assured, should you have warranty concerns in the future we will be happy to address them within hours.? If you emergency services in which your person or property are in danger we are available hours a day.? It is our hope that this brings satisfactory resolution to your concerns.? Regards,Jeff [redacted] Genz-RyanCustomer Service Manager###-###-####?

I am rejecting this response because: !. If you total what I paid for services, there was no plan shown me that equaled that amount. I signed for one thing and was charged an additional $the nest day. No parts replaced in my home equal that amountThe gentleman you referred to that put my door on track is also a friend of your field manager who refers him for workHe was the one that also told me that your company ripped me offYes he put it on track but it does not stay because the bottom on the door anchor was broke which your men did. The field manager did break the valve off the water pipe, I was standing right behind him when he did it and said that he broke it. He had no reason to be messing around with that valve when it was not the main water shut off.3. I do not need your service plan because I am selling my home. Further more I do not appreciate being called a liar. You were not here and your field manager spent more time sitting out in his vehicle, wondering what my accent was and asking me about the pictures on my wall than working. Your technician was a wonderful person and did all the work. I do not mind paying for the plan but the additional check for over $was a rip off. I would like to have that money backIt is truly sad that a company this large has employees that take advantage of elderly single female clients. That is exactly what your field manager did. No apology will make up for that.Thank YouMelissa

Revdex.com: I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID [redacted] , and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me.This has been resolved and I am totally satisfied

I have reviewed the response from Jeff [redacted] I do not wish to pursue the matter any further, but not because we are satisfied with the responseI do not wish to pursue this anymore because I found his apology disingenuousI can see we aren't going to get anywhereHis apology seemed more like an attempt to blame my husband for what happened, when the truth is that my husbands "expectations" were based solely on what Noah said at his first visitIncidentally, I called Jeff [redacted] after our experience to discuss with him and he did not respond to me until I filed a complaint with the Revdex.comWe would like to close our complaint because we don't want to dedicate anymore emotional energy to thisWe are so disappointed with Genz Ryan and would never recommend them to anyone we know

Revdex.com: I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID 12247426, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me, provided they refund my $1,right away Thank you Revdex.com for the help!

Mr [redacted] ***Burnsville, MN 55306February 27, 2018? [redacted] ,Thank you for sharing your concerns regarding the service we performed at your home in November of last year.? ? I’m sorry to learn that no longer agree with the value in the rate we charged for the services provided in your home.? As you know, we did quote this price in advance of beginning work and you agreed to the price, in writing.? We understand that you may have been able to purchase a similar unit through your utility provider at a cheaper price.?
