When I called to make the appointment I was told there was an $89 service fee for coming out, regardless of whether I chose to have them do the actual repair. If we did have them do the repair, I was told the $89 would be included in the final cost. I took this to mean that if I had a $500 parts and labor bill, the $89 would not be in addition to that. This was not the case.
When the technician came over, he did find that the motor needed to be replaced. I asked if it was covered under warranty and he told me I needed to check for myself. I immediatly went online and spoke to an LG Service Rep who told me it was still under warranty, and that the Accent Appliance technician would have to open a service order to get the part delivered, at no cost to me.
I relayed this information to the service tech and he called LG from my house while he was there to place the order. I paid the $89 service fee and he left telling me that I would get a call to schedule service when the part came in. I did indeed get a call to have the washing machine repaired the following week. It took the technician about 20 minutes to replace the motor, and I was charged $120 in labor. When my wife asked if that included the $89 service fee, she was told it did not. That the service fee was in addition to the labor cost. This is the first time I've had a company do this. I have used plenty of providers that have a service fee. I understand it's intent, but it has always been a "down payment" on the services provided.
I do not know this for certain, but I got the impression that the service fee was kept on because I was able to get the motor under warranty.
Additionally, the technician was an hour later than the scheduled window for service. I had to call to get a status update. I would have appreciated getting called to let me know he was running late.
To conclude, the actual repair service was fantastic. He did a great job diagnosing, repairing the machine, and doing it quickly. I was very unhappy with the Customer Service of not getting called when he was late, and what I feel was a misleading statement about the service fee.
I did change my mind and called them today to schedule the repair and was told that I would indeed have to pay another service charge and that my original SC could not be applied to the total because it had been over 30 days. I do not doubt that the repairman told me that at the first appointment BUT I do not remember it.
I am a little put off because they were so late, I do not feel like it it his place to tell me that my range is so old and not worth fixing, he offered me no consolation to his extreme tardiness and I just think it is way too much money for a repair such as this. Not mention the fact that no one I spoke with over the phone could be described as friendly. The overall attitude was that they could care less about my business.
I did ask for SOME kind of discount because of how late he was and he took off the tax of the service fee.
They showed up early and I was not at the house so they went to the next call. I waited and they missed their
appointment. I called the office and was told the tech was 45 min out. I could not wait that long so I left the door unlocked. It is a rent house and is empty. I explained what I needed done and gave them my credit card info. I told them I unplugged the burner on the stove that is not working so the tech would know what burner was not working. They said the stove was an electrical issue and it was. I was told that the burner was not making connection and they fixed it and charged me for it. I know it wasn't making connection, I unplugged it. Burner still doesn't work.Licensing
