Fridge, Freezer or Ice Maker Repair or Service
He said the part was not available, and should get a replacement. I called Samsung directly and it is still a current refrigerator and part is available. Left messages for 3 days with no response. Very unprofessional at the least. Billing from them was from a caliber appliance service and essential. I feel like we were being scammed. I believe Angi should be responsible for recommending an unqualified service person. Would like to recoup my money.
Response from Essential Appliance Repair
"I gave the recommendation after service was rendered. If there is another appliance I would glady offer to fix it for a discounted price."

If I would have know upfront how much it would cost I would not have hired this guy. I though Angi was a reputable company but it was not my experience.

This repair man was definitively not personable, he answered minimal questions and he was unable to provide a solution to my problem. He also refused to provided me with a diagnosis. I would never use this service again.

They do not complete the job and do not answer their phone when you have issues, if they do they make appointments and do not show up or call. I would not recommend them
Response from Essential Appliance Repair
"The appliance was serviced successfully, and the technician arrived at the appointment at the allotted time frame. The customer said there was an issue after the fact the technician went out to resolve the matter after the customer changed the dates that they wanted serviced several times when the technician was arriving at location the customer chose to decline service. There is a warranty for the appliance, and we can gladly come out and fix any problem if there is an issue free of charge to the customer. A lot of customers we are so proud to serve recommend us to their family and even extended family for all their residential appliance services needs."

$85
My overall experience with Ken was not good, I basically received no valur for the fee I paid him and I would like him to give me my $85 back. He did not provide me with the formal estimate after I asked for it for a week, he overstated the repair costs, asked for 3 parts to be replaced and would only share estimates he changed three times verbally. I warned him that I was not happy with his actions and will warn others about his unethical actions, but he elected to pocket the fee. Advisor asked him to work out the issue but he elected to just lie and cheat. Beware and I would think long and hard before using him for repairs....apparently the $85 fee ge pocketed is more important than an ethical profession
Response from Essential Appliance Repair
"The customer was told the cost of the repair several times in person on the phone four times and through text and did not confirm to start completion of the repair. A service charge is for the diagnosis of the appliance often appliances must be fully disassembled or partially disassembled and multiple electrical components must be tested which is hundreds of dollars in value truly. There is no charge to come out and you do not have to pay upfront before arriving. We do everything possible within reason to satisfy our customers with same-day service, warranty, flexible scheduling."

Do not use this company he is rip off artist, does not know what he is doing he did not even have a tag to show his name.
Response from Essential Appliance Repair
"The statement above is false. The customer appliance was serviced in a timely manner. The customer received a $20 Discount on service for the job. The customer claimed there was another issue with their appliance the next day. The appliance was promptly attempted to be serviced the next day free of charge the customer chose not to get it looked at when the technician was at the property. Not sure what to make of the absurd name tag claim the customer knew the name of the technician was in a company vehicle, had a company logo hat on, and a company logo shirt. We do everything we can to deliver quality service to our valued customers within reason."
