      Status:
      Answered
      After I paid the $85.00 fee, Furnace Doctors (**) was dispatched by First American Home Warranty (FA) to verify a home furnace problem on Nov. 2, 2022, (Ref: FA dispatch # *********, Furnace Doctor ******* 36554).** confirmed the issue and recommended replacement that same day. FA requires reports to be filed within 48 hours, but after 10 days, the ** office had still not filed.I talked to First American and they confirmed they never received the report; they tried to contact ** from 11-11-22 through 11-15-22. Then I tried:Message to Furnace Doctors on 11-16-22; no response.Message to Furnace Doctors on 11-17-22; no response.Message to Furnace Doctors on 11-18-22; no response.11-18-22 Furnace Doctors finally answered and once **** realized they hadnt filed the report she couldnt get me off the phone fast enough to do it.FA ordered the new furnace 11-19-22 which arrived in **** ********** on 11-23-22.11-24-22 through 11-28-22 I tried to get ** to schedule an appointment and was ignored.11-28-22; 11:30 AM; I called Furnace Doctors and **** answered, when I said the furnace was in the warehouse and that Id like to schedule, and she kept telling me thats not the way it works, I asked her to put in the notes that I was following up because F.D. had forgotten about me before, she said she would put that in the notes.11-29-22 to 11-30-22; still no response from Furnace Doctors, no scheduling call.All those weeks we were experiencing sub-freezing temperatures and people were sick in the house. At that point due to Furnace Doctors poor performance and negligent customer service, it was in our best interest to contract the job ourselves and have F.A. re-reimburse us.I called another company and they had a new furnace installed within two days.I would like Furnace Doctors to refund our $85.00 fee and it would also be a good gesture to re-reimburse us for the $167.20 we had to spend on space heaters (not to mention electricity). Thank you.

      This is a bad business. Our warranty company assigned this "company" to us, we wasted our time dealing with this place. They do not answer their phones, they do not return their messages, they pretty much don't want you to contact them. They sent a repair person and I use that term lightly because the person had no idea what he was doing. He said that two parts on our furnace were bad and he would put a rush order on it to the warranty company. We let a week go by and still had not heard anything back from the company. We called our home warranty company and they said they were still waiting for the service report. A week of waiting and this company had not sent in the report. After a couple calls from us, the customers and from the warranty company, they finally sent in a report. They must have put something in the report that said what was wrong with the furnace was our fault and so the warranty denied our claim. This company didn't even call us to let us know the claim was denied. After a phone call with the the warranty company, we fixed this company's "mistake" and got the claim covered. Talking with the negative owner of this company will get you no where. He is like talking to a condescending brick wall. The person I mentioned earlier, who came out to our house, should leave this terrible place and get some proper training and go to a new company. What he said was wrong with our furnace was not correct and we had a second company come out, they inspected the furnace and found the cause as to why our furnace was not working. All I can say is that no one should use this company because they will not get anywhere. A poor company ran by a poor owner.
