Then the Trip Fee is waivedIf you decide not to have our company do the workThat will be fine as wellThe Trip Fee will still be due.As you can see we are up front with our customers to make sure there is no question with how we workI attached a sound file of the actual phone call with the customer before we came out to her home, copies of the work that was offered to the customer, and what work that was approved and what work was rejectedYou can see that the customer:Approved the work.Accepted the work was working properly when we left.We also indicated that the thermostat needed to be replace due to it working intermittently and may cause them to not have heat if they did not do the work and they decided not to do the work.We also informed the customer that their system is in poor shape and needs to have maintenance performed to the systemsWe offered a maintenance program to preform service to their system, they declined on that as well.The customer asked about the using the $coupon that they saw online, we explained we needed a copy of the coupon in order to use itThe customer did not have it, but we had her send it to the office via email, we honored it even though she did not print it out and give it to usI know that I can’t use a coupon somewhere unless we have the coupon at the time of purchase[redacted] called days after we made the repair to her boiler stating the air was not blowing, we explain to [redacted] that there would be a trip charge for us to come out to see what was wrong and if it would be under warrantyWe clearly explained to [redacted] that if our repair was the cause of her heating issue we would repair it under warranty and the trip charge would not be charged to herBut she did not want to understand about how we go about doing businessThere were recommended repairs we told [redacted] to make and she decided not to make all of the repairs we suggested, there is a very high chance the thermostat that had intermitting problems was the cause of her no heat condition[redacted] changed her mind after we made the repair she approved and her heat was fixedAt this time, she looked up the price of a similar part cost onlineThat part did not include the all of the items it takes to make the repair We had to come to the house We had to figure out why the heat was not working Then we had to safely depressurize the heating system We had to disconnect the electricity to the Circulator pump that had failed We had to remove the failed circulator pump We made sure the flanges where in good condition We installed a new Circulator pump with Internal Flow Check (IFC) this is a upgraded Circulator pump then what the [redacted] had before We Replaced the gaskets to the Circulator pump to insure water was not to leak We refilled the boiler with water and pressurized as needed We purged air from both the first floor heating loop as well as the second floor system We observed the system operation and ensured the it was working properly.I strongly believe the repair we made was done correctly and is still working fine, because if our part had failed I would have heard it from [redacted] ***.EddieEdward B [redacted] Jr[redacted] ***###-###-####v###-###-####f [redacted] [redacted]
Revdex.com: I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID# [redacted] , and have determined that my complaint has NOT been resolved because: I'd like to find out the guideline of pricing for a project like this I have contacted several other companies to get a quote for a job replacing the parts, none of them exceed $ When a company overcharges you under such emergency situation, it is a rip off When I contacted him later on in the afternoon on the same day, he asked me how much discount I am looking for and asked me to promise that if he did offer the discount I asked for (which was only down to $150), I shall not go to the media, I shall not report to anyone and the warranty will only be days So he knew he overcharge customer, otherwise he would not even consider the option of reducing $ We had no choice but to agree on the job because I have a year old man in the house who is freezing and even nothing is done, I need to pay a trip fee, but I never imagined that someone can overcharge this much I am here to figure out what a reasonable repair fee is and let other people know this company and learn the lesson In order for the Revdex.com to appropriately process your response, you MUST answer the question above Sincerely, [redacted] ***
