It is true that I purchased a programable thermostat from Home Depot and it is true it probably did take about 2 months to make a followup call because I had more pressing issues in my life. However I am taking time now to make sure I change their rating to an and quot;Fand quot; in all areas. The 'Dosand quot; - do use another AC business and the and quot;Don'tsand quot; - Don't bother to use Von Aire.
When I had an opportunity to contact them I did ask if they would install the programable thermostat I purchased, the tech on the original service call had no problem using my tools and materials before, so that way I knew I would get a programable thermostat installed instead of replacing the current non programable one with the same thing I had for a second time!
What I call unreasonable is the need to even purchase a thermostat from Home Depot at all or make a followup call at all.
VON AIRE should have installed a programable thermostat that I had requested on the original service call.
The provider still misses that point even in their response. Yes they offered to install another thermostat but I would have to pay for it again.
Wow no mention of the shoddy repair? Oh right they blamed that on the technician who and quot; no longer works' there. I should not be surprised that they are now blaming the customer too. That is always a tried and true way to win back customers, good business practice! There are plenty of other AC businesses available and I will continue to use them.
"Sorry that the Member felt she was treated unfairly. I checked our records on this address, and found that we did service her system and install a new thermostat for her on July 20, 2009. She accepted the thermostat that was installed and paid for it. On October 8, 2009, a full 2 1/2 months later, the customer called and stated they did not want that thermostat, but had bought one at Home Depot and wanted us to install it at no cost. And we did tell the customer we would not do that. If the customer was unhappy with the thermostat installed, and had contacted us, we would have exchanged the thermostat with a different one, but to ask us to install a thermostat purchased at Home Depot, 2 1/2 months after the fact for free is unreasonable. I am sorry that Ms Irizarry felt this was unfair to her."
