Dishwasher repair

Tech came and "fixed" the dishwasher, in less than an hour, the dishwasher was having the same error. Called the Customer Service people immediately only to be told that the tech could not come back until 3 days later. I said this was unacceptable and asked to get another tech to come only to be told that they would charge me for another visit. When I asked to speak to a manager, I was told there was no one there and to call back the next day. I waited and called the next day only to be told that the manager was off and that the only thing they could do was book me for the same time slot 3 days later. When I asked if they could expedite my repair and send another tech, they told me that they would charge me again for the visit. They were completely inflexible and very rude and condescending on the phone. Their lack of willingness to try and rectify the situation was infuriating. I would Strongly not recommend this company to anyone.

UNACCEPTABLE WAY TO TREAT YOUR CLIENTS. At appliance repair experts our clients satisafction is always top priority to us. We have searched for your file and we have never accepted homestars request from you and have never serviced you before simply because other companies accepted your service request first. We are sorry about your terrible experience, but unfortunately this review is meant for another company. Homestars review team is already informed and this review will be removed shortly. Next time please contact us instead! :)

Microwave repair service

Appliance Repair Team
Worst repair company I have ever dealt with. The telephone customer staff are rude, not willing to be helpful, had trouble finding my information with each call and they do not announce who they are. I had to ask with each call "Who am I speaking to" then the attitude started. I spoke to 6 different people over the course 2.5 weeks regarding, part delays and repair technician no shows after an appointment was book. The staff would not divulge who the Manager was stating; they can not give out their last name; I have still not hear from the owner or manager. Warning would not recommend this company, very unprofessional and they overcharge for their service.
Also on their website they say they accept major credit cards and they do not and they over charge for their parts and repair. Now the repair was done and they call daily to tell me the part is in and to book my repair appointment!

Non-Transparent pricing strategy

They did the standard $80 dispatch fee, waived if you accept the labour estimate (in this case $280). I asked how much it would cost to replace the washing machines tub and bearings as i was fairly certain this was the issue. He deflected, by saying it was repairable and that it would cost $1400 to buy a replacement to fit in it's place. Against my better judgement I accepted the labour cost and then after 50 minutes of work he came and told me the repair i had originally asked the repair price of would be $908. It's a 15 year old washer and he still tried to pressure me into doing the repair. The total costs would have been $1,350 if i had done them. He even tried to tell me that mine was better as it was a european model and that he could tell because the top was flat... I should have checked with BBB before calling.

The Technician could not fix my dishwasher

A technician from Appliance Repair Team came twice to fix my dishwasher. The first time he tried one part. The second time he tried another every expensive one that I had to pre-pay for. Finally, he could not fix it. He left with the part and the company promised a refund but have not given one.

Horrible horrible horrible

I called this company to fix my stove. They booked a window with me from 4-8. They didn’t show up, didn’t call, nothing. I reschedule for the next day, had to take time off work. The window was 1-4. My child’s daycare called and I had to leave to pick them up. I left at 3:50. Ten minutes before the end of the window. They came and left me a $90.00 bill. When I called back the “manager” was extremely rude and said you have to pay it or we will take you to collects. Stay away from these people.

Stay Away - Dishwasher service

I called this company and spoke to the phone rep who said they cost to repair the dishwasher would be $80,00 for the tech to visit and check the dishwasher and provide a provide a quote. Well the tech shows up walks into the kitchen and says it will be $280.00 plus to repair the dishwasher. He did not eve look at the machine to determine what might be wrong. So I asked what the $280.00 was for and he said to hopefully repair the dishwasher but that there would be extra expenses for parts and anything else that might be wrong. I asked what about checking to see what is wrong and the tech said the $80.00 is just to get him to the door nothing else.

STAY AWAY....this is an unethical group to use and will take your hard earned $$$$ run away!

Total waste of money

Asked 2 people on phone before booking appointment for labor cost to fix my microwave. Both said we don't know, but their advertisement says, we will always tell you cost of labor. The tech arrived next day and said 280. flat charge for a micro. Who's going to pay that plus parts to fix a 500 microwave!! FALSE ADVERTISING AND TOTAL WASTE OF MONEY!!!!!

still waiting

repair tech showed up to my house to repair a stove, that I had informed has a known problem with the upper door switch/locking latch, he informed me it would cost $280 for the repair plus parts, I informed great get it working.

20 minutes after he was done googling the stove and model he informed this part was discontinued, and presented me with a $316.41 bill for a repair ...?

I have to say, I'm a bit confused and a little ticked off, he didn't fix anything as the part is discontinued, but felt it just to charge me $316.41 for a repair...? the tech that showed up spent more time searching the model of the stove on google then anytime actually working on it. more offensive is when he left, I found all the information regarding serial # and model # on the metal plate that is attached to the top left corner of the stove he so called repaired.

I have called customer service 4 different times all of which informed they would be getting back to me, "Sonia" who I spoke with this morning informed she would look into this matter and get back to me today. it's now 5:54pm and guess what , I'm still waiting.

I have also left 2 messages on the customer services form on their web site and received an email informing someone would be getting back to me. guess what.... I'm Still Waiting

Refrigerator Repair

My husband called Appliance Repair Team without checking 'on-line reviews' - "Sammy" the technician came to our house and indicated that he needed to do some diagnostics - the charge was originally $80 but he required $300 for diagnostics indicating that he could fix the fridge if he evaluated the cooling system, the main board - the fridge is not fixed - he claimed to put a part in that he did not put in - and he smashed glass all over our kitchen impacting a newly painted wall, leaving broken glass and damaging the floor
DO NOT... Do NOT phone this company - they are 'known' to operate this way - I phoned their office and the customer service person who claimed to be "management" indicated - there is no way to fix your fridge of course it needed a compressor which is more expensive than buying a new fridge - I said this is unacceptable - there are endless reviews saying everyone has had the same experience - her response was 'and yet we are still in business' - this is the worst company - do not call them.

Fridge repair needed. Called and service man arrived. Said needed new control board changed it out and then advised me it would be $706.00. Fridge is worse then before they arrived. Fridge heating up rapidly. Called customer service and waiting a response. I have kept the old board that was working some what.

Have had a second service rep come and repair fridge this evening. Appliance Repair team installed the wrong control board. Have sent request for them to come and pick up and expect a full refund. Will be blocking the purchase on my C.C.
