uhh
i previously engaged one through facebook, which definitely i felt was scammy.
advertisement was $80 chemical wash with 1 free normal servicing for another unit.
so i engaged them to come last weekend.
When they came, they say that my compressor was too hot to do the unit chemical wash, and asked me to do the chemical wash for the compressor first, and said the unit didnt need chemical wash, just normal servicing will do.
Then they quoted me $120 for the compressor chemical wash,
and $80 to service the other 2 units.
I felt that they were ********ting me and didnt like the way that they did business.
So i told them that i didnt want their service anymore because over the phone i have upfront told them what i wanted, and asked if there is any other "tnc" involved in this promo which they said there is none, and no transport fee or anything else.
Then they wanted me to pay $30 for their labour of checking my unit and compressor. which i also rejected, coz that was not within the phone conversation.
Which led me to wonder how did this shop get good testimony from their customers on their services.
So anyway, since i was looking for the service of aircon cleaning,
i got a recommendation for this company that i end up going along with them.
What they quoted me was
$60 for mitsubishi system 2 compressor chemical clean
$80 for panasonic system 3 compressor chemical clean
$80 for 2 units of aircon unit chemical clean (only did 2 units as the other 3 units are mostly white elephants, not being much used at all)
I felt these prices were reasonable.
Just at the end they show me the gas pressure gauge for my mitsubishi compressor which 98psi was shown, and to top it up to 158psi, it costed me $80.
total damage $300
So... from you guys feedback, i guess what was paid for the gas isnt a norm.
mmmm, seems like tough to find a reliable aircon service now adays..
What are you guys go to aircon servicing company? and their quotes?
