  #1: OnTech charged me for contracted work not satisfactorily completed. This regarded the installation of a **** Hello camera that ultimately would not ring my house chime or my phone. There simply was no audible chime if a visitor pushed the ring button at the front door. This is unacceptable. I asked the technician to reconnect my old working Ring camera (3-5 min process). The technician told me that my refund would be facilitated by signing added paperwork. However, instead of refunding me $114.99 for the unsuccessful **** camera install, OnTech charged me the same amount for reconnecting my old functional Ring doorbell camera. The OnTech technician also struggled to get the **** camera connected until I suggested that he try using the **** app instead of the ****** app. That worked, but the chime still did not work. He gave up. #2: This regards the failed install of a doorbell transformer. Another tech came to my house (after the first) to install the new transformer. It became apparent that he didnt have the skills to do this. The previous doorbell transformer was installed by an electrician and was securely mounted to the electrical box. The OnTech technician wired the new transformer but forgot to first take off the mounting nut. Therefore the new transformers wires were connected but the transformer was left dangling by the wires (a potential fire hazard). During the process, this technician also didnt understand how wire nuts work and had difficulty connecting the wires. Ultimately the new transformer did not work, and I was told to hire an electrician. OnTech said that I would be refunded $29.99 for this failed install, but this never happened. Here's the breakdown of what I would like credited back to my VISA:**** Hello install fee: $114.99 (#******); Transformer install fee: $29.99 (#******); Total requested: $144.98 My request for a bill adjustment was denied; I asked to speak to a manager, but they never contacted me.

  Dear ****************:
  
  On October 10, 2023, we received your complaint, dated October 10, 2023, filed with the Better Business Bureau.
  
  You expressed dissatisfaction with your OnTech installation and you requested a refund.
  
  A review of our records indicate that the work for which you were charged was completed. ************** uninstalled the new doorbell and reinstalled your old doorbell, at your request. As the job for which you were charged was completed, we are unable to provide you with a refund.
  
  ************** indicated issues with the transformer installation. As such, I refunded the $29.99 charge for that work.
  
  Please note that a review of your calls to us did not reinforce your assertion of ongoing issues with your initial installation. Additionally,a supervisor did attempt to reach out to you; however, you had blocked our number.

  On August 31, 2023 I had an installation done by Ontech Smart Devices, Tech *** came out to install a device to my wall, and advise me that my devices would work better if I purchase a ****** mesh from him. I made the purchase, and soon as he installed it and left the device felled. I immediately called the company to let them know, and they scheduled an appointment with me, which they felled to show up. When I rescheduled the appointment I was told that the new appointment would not interfere with my limited warranty. Fast forward now I haven't had my appointment yet and I was told that I no longer have a warranty for the devices. the total installation cost me $600.00 including labor, I would like to be reimbursed, and return the equipment. I called this business multiple times for resolution, and was told the equipment is out of warranty, and this is a security issue because my cameras, and door locks have been off line since the installation, the equipment is not compatible with my internet provider, but was told it was.

  I had my initial appointment scheduled for 8/27/23 between 2-4 pm. I received an email reminder that morning. I waited until about 3:15 pm in case the technician was running late and called the office to find out the **** The customer representative informed me the appointment was rescheduled for that evening around 7:48 pm. I never received an email or phone call with this update. The customer representative apologized and said the technician had been at the same site since 8 am that morning and there were no other certified technicians available that day. I planned my day in advance to make sure I was available during the timeframe and then I had to reschedule the appointment for the following week. They should have communicated this to me directly. I emailed my concerns to ****************************************** on 9/3. I received a response from a customer representative (there was no name in the email signature) who apologized but also put the onus on me. The representative asked if I set the password on my account so I can track the technician. In addition, the representative closed the email by asking me to let them know if I was able to track the technician and set my password. I called on 9/5 to speak to a manager about this experience because the email response exacerbated the issue. The customer representative said that someone would call me in ***** hours. I never received a call, so I called back on 9/7. I spoke to a representative named ****** who stated the timeframe for a call back from a manager is 72 hours because one of the managers is on vacation. I was notified that the ticket/incident number is *******. As of 4:30 pm EST on 9/8, no one from OnTech Smart Services has contacted me. OnTech Smart Services lacks accountability and even basic courtesy to notify a customer directly when a technician is running late or needs to reschedule. Furthermore, management did not follow back up with me. This is unacceptable customer service.

  Complaint: 20576548
  
  I am rejecting this response because I believe you may have overlooked the chain of events that took place because of the egregious poor customer service. The appointment time for 8/27/23 was moved (without any direct customer notification). I had to call to find out the estimated time of arrival was now four later than the expected timeframe. I already planned to be available at the initially agreed upon timeframe. As a result, I had to reschedule the appointment for the following week on 9/3/23. When I sent an email to customer service to address these concerns, they basically put the responsibility on me to track the technician. I called on 9/5/23 and 9/7/23 to speak to a manager and on both occasions was assured that someone would get back to me. To make matters even worse no one from OnTech Smart Services management contacted me so I had to reach out to Better Business Bureau.

  Hi. I responded to OnTech Smart Services on 9/14 to let them know that I rejected their response with a detailed explanation. I received an email notification from my credit card company on 9/15 stating that OnTech Smart Services credited me $25 with a 9/13 date. I requested a $50 refund. This means that they moved ahead with their own resolution before they even responded to my complaint. They did not take the time and consideration to share their resolution plan with me first. This is unfair customer service treatment.

  I purchased the OnTech+ Membership on December 28, 2022 vide order # ****** and paid $108.24 Today 9/5/2023 - I called OnTech to check on my membership inclusions and to schedule the free installation for my smart tv - assuming that I had the one free installation as part of the membership.I spoke with OnTech agent ******* and below is the excerpt of my email to OnTech:Hello,I called Ontech to check on my Ontech+ membership as I planned to use my first free install with the Ontech+ membership that I purchased last year.I spoke with your agent ******* and was told three different things based on what she saw in your system - I have nothing against ******* (let me state on record) - but your system which she was referring to has totally incorrect facts:1. I was told that my membership is not a Ontech+ so I would not get a free install - THIS IS A LIE - I have an Ontech+ membership please refer the attached screenshot 2. I was told that this is a month on month membership: THIS IS A LIE - I have not purchased a month-on-month membership. I asked if her system shows any credit card being charged month-on-month if it is indeed a month-on-month to which she did not have an answer 3. I was told that the plan that I purchased has been discontinued - If this is so, why is there no communication to me to this effect? Why does your system still show me as a Ontech+ member? Why does your system show that I have one free install pending?I asked for a supervisor and was told that calls cannot be transferred to a supervisor and only a ticket can be raised - hence I have raised a ticket referred above.Please refer to the attachments, and if you should choose to do so listen to my call recording. This is a breach of contract by OnTech.Either you refund me the money I have paid or provide me the services.I need this addressed ASAP.

  Dear Mr. ********************* September 6, 2023, we received your complaint, dated September 5, 2023, filed with the Better Business Bureau.
  
  You said you were due a free TV mount, but when you contacted OnTech, you were advised that your account is not eligible.
  
  Please note that you initiated the OnTech+ membership after paying for an installation. As such, you received the membership at a deeply discounted rate, $99.99 rather than $199.99. As such, your account is not eligible for a free installation.
  
  Additionally, a TV mount installation is considered an advanced installation, and so it is not covered by the free installation offered under a normal OnTech+ membership.
  
  Your OnTech+ membership includes the normal discounts, such as a 10% off purchases, a 10% off normal installations, and 20% off advanced installations. Please note that installation does not include the mount and hardware. A 56" or larger TV would be $223.99 with the 20%discount (normally $289.99, currently discounted to $279.99) before tax and a 55" or smaller TV would be $151.99 with the 20% discount (normally $199.99, currently discounted to $189.99).
  
  We sincerely regret any confusion this issue may have caused.

  Complaint: 20560410
  
  I am rejecting this response because:

  Your explanation is not valid and is untrue.

  
  To give the deeply discounted rate as you mention was your (OnTech) decision, I did not ask for it.
  I was not informed that it would not include the free installation.
  If you have any proof of the same - please furnish and I will rest my case.
  
  Please refer the attached screenshot taken from My Accounts page on the OnTech+ login. 
  It clearly states I am owed one free installation.
  
  Coming to the second part - if the ** installation is not included - I am fine. 
  I agree to your decision as it must be based on your policy. I would chose to use it for anything else ut at this stage I do not want to do so and want a total / full refund.
  
  At least it is established via your email that I have a OnTech+ Membership - this itself was denied by your agent on the phone as indicated in my note earlier. 
  It is unfortunate that even you misrepresent the fact of my OnTech+ Membership. 
  It is evident for all to see that it includes a free installation.
  
  I want a full and total refund of the money paid. 
  I do not want to deal with a company that misleads customers and lies to them (refer my earlier note and listen to the recording with your agent *******)

  Dear Mr. ********************* September 20, 2023, we received your rebuttal, dated September 19, 2023, filed with the Better Business Bureau.
  
  You maintain that you are owed a free installation.
  
  Please refer to my previous response, wherein I explained that you initiated the OnTech+ membership after you had paid for an installation. As such, you initiated the OnTech+ membership under a limited-time promotion and you received membership for a discount in lieu of the free installation. This is referred to as the $99.99 redeemed service applied membership, meaning that the discounted membership you received offset the price of the installation that was already completed. While we regret that you disagree, this is the type of OnTech+ membership you initiated. An OnTech+membership initiated through regular channels, and not through the promotion you received, do receive a free future installation; however, we are unable to provide you with the discounted membership and a free installation.
  
  In the interest of coming to a resolution, I requested that your initial membership payment be refunded to you and I have canceled your membership. We attempted to refund the credit/debit card used, but it was rejected and a check refund will be issued instead. Please allow up to 20 business days for processing and mailing.

  On 8/7/23, I found a product on OnTech's website I was interested in purchasing. On the product page (attached) under the "Add to Cart" button, there is an addition on the page stating "Free Shipping".When going through my order and entering my shipping address, it calculated the Shipping cost of $6.99 for *** Ground (attached), which was my cheapest option of the three selections. No free shipping option like was mentioned on the product page.I then contacted OnTech Smart Services via phone and spoke with a customer service representative that mentioned they do not have an option to waive the shipping charge and when they attempted to place the order through their system, it was also charging the same shipping cost. I requested a supervisor to review this request as this company is false advertising a free shipping option and would not honor a removal of the fee.I expect a resolution in my favor for this request as the company does not have any exclusions or conditions (attached) in order to get the free shipping that was shown to me on the product page.

  I am rejecting this response because under the shipping heading for the Shipping & Delivery terms, there is no where that states that shipping the product without having it installed by one of your techs forfeits the "free shipping" of the product ordered. Likewise, on the product page, there is no where stating this information either, but rather an icon that states "Free Shipping". Shipping and delivery are two very different methods of receiving the product, therefore, your website is false advertising free shipping as an option to its customers, when in reality it is "free delivery with install".

  We reached out to Ontech to help with our ****** doorbell. The doorbell was working as designed for the camera, voice, push notifications etc. The only thing that would not work is the inside chime when the button was pressed. Ontech said they could fix that. They came onsite, took off the outside doorbell, took off the inside chime and said it was a burnt transformer on the inside chime. They then put the outside doorbell back on (After he tried to leave) and still left the wiring sticking out of the wall from the chime and all parts strewn across the floor. The doorbell outside now does not work at all and they made the situation worse than before they got there. See pictures attached. They charged me $129.99 to now have my doorbell not work at all and left me with a mess. I called to ask for a refund to fix the issue and was told they do not do refunds. So I was left disputing this with the BBB. I am asking Ontech for a full refund of $129.99 that was charged to my Chase card.

  OnTechSmart Services charged me for 2 Links-system boosters to assist in reaching our Ring Security Doorbells and told me that the company guaranteed these units for 1 year. They now say the guarantee was 60 days and gave me the phone number to Links. I called Links System and they say their guarantee is only 90 days. OnTech lied directly to us. The cost was about $ ****** for each unit. They need to be held accountable for lying to their customers. I will follow up with a call to ******* Co. To advise them. Thank you *********************** ************

  Dear ****************:
  
  On July 20, 2023, we received your complaint, dated July 19,2023, filed with the Better Business Bureau.
  
  You said that you were told OnTech offers a one-year warranty on the Linksys Velop ***** System and Linksys offers a 90-day guarantee.
  
  Please note that OnTech does not manufacture Linksys products and therefore, we do not provide a manufacturers warranty for them: we offer a 60-day workmanship warranty for the installation.  This information was provided to you when you initiated your order online.
  
  Linksys offers a 90-day warranty for refurbished products and a three-year warranty for new products. Their warranty information can be found at ***************************************, under the Velop and Atlas products page.
  
  I reviewed your calls to us and found that you contacted us on July 19, 2023, and indicated you wanted both ***** systems to be replaced and installed free of charge.  When the agent you spoke with advised you of our 60-day workmanship guarantee and that you needed to contact Linksys for replacement, you disputed that information.  You were offered a diagnostic appointment,but you declined.  Instead, you said you would send a letter to Ring telling them that OnTech had no interest in helping you, which is incorrect.  You were provided correct information consistent with that which you were provided during the initiation of your original order, and is available on our website, ********************************************.
  
  While we regret that you disagree with our policies, we are unable to alter them or set them aside for this issue.
  
  Sincerely,

  Please reference the attached file for the original complaint ID ********. ********************** had sent me the 14 requested *** labels as they promised. I have received credit for 360 units of the 825 Wemo Mini Smart plug 3-packs that have been returned. According to *** tracking information OnTech received these items on or about April 10. The following *** tracking for the credit of 360 units are:1Z3A14T09096959550 1Z3A14T09099467291 1Z3A14T09097705527 1Z3A14T09095571916 1Z3A14T09099565336 1Z3A14T09099088281 At the time of this email (July 18, 2023) I STILL have not received a credit for the remaining 465 Wemo Mini Smart Plug 3-packs that were, according to the below *** tracking information, delivered on or about April 24:1Z3A14T09097355343 1Z3A14T09090243280 1Z3A14T09098040501 1Z3A14T09099541969 1Z3A14T09099146575 1Z3A14T09099333603 1Z3A14T09097297380 1Z3A14T09099598391 7 of the 8 packages contained 60 of the Wemo Mini Smart Plug 3-packs. *** tracking number 1Z3A14T09099598391 contained 45. This comes to a total of 465 (7*60=420; 420+45=465). I had made several calls starting in the middle of May concerning the credit. On June 28, I spoke to **** for almost 45 minutes. She created a ticket number *******. Nothing happened. On July 17, I again called and was told that the supervisor would contact me. No one ever called; AGAIN!I am seeking credit for the remaining 465 units.

  I was scheduled Friday, June 23 from 12 PM to 2 PM for a technician to arrive to install a Ring Video Doorbell and camera. They continuously postponed my scheduling time for a technician to arrive. I never received my installation or a technician on June 23. I received a phone call at 5 PM telling me that they would not be able to install my equipment due to a delay with the technician and then post poned me again, I got ran around in circles with customer support and transfer through three to four representatives, I asked for a supervisor several times there was not any available or even to return my call. The technician that did install my equipment mistakenly took my screwdriver that was provided to me with my ring doorbell camera I called in and talk to a customer service rep. I still have not heard back or received my tool back. I was rescheduled for Saturday, June 24 from 10 AM to noon and I was post poned all day Saturday June 24 till the technician arrived at 3:30 PM. I had to be to work and was late after they already wasted my whole day and my time on Friday and then it continued on Saturday when I was explaining to them that I was having issues with my neighbors and that I already had the authorities here twice last week due to harassment with the neighbors that it was urgent I get these up that I didnt appreciate being post pone multiple times or my time wasted. I still have not received a phone call from supervisor or the technician in reference to my tool that came with my ring doorbell.

  Dear **********************:
  
  On June 29, 2023, we received your complaint, dated June 29, 2023, filed with the Better Business Bureau.
  
  You said your OnTech appointment was rescheduled and a technician took your Ring torx screwdriver.
  
  We sincerely regret any inconvenience the rescheduling of your appointment may have caused. Unfortunately, in some cases, a technician may be detained at a prior job, causing their remaining jobs to be delayed.
  
  We were unable to verify if a technician accidentally took your screwdriver, so I applied a $5.00 refund to your credit card ending in ****. Ring offers a replacement screwdriver and kit for $1.99 through their website, Ring.com.

  I payed for security cameras and installation. And no one showed up to my appointment schedule. And I was charged for the products and installation. I attempted to call them several times for the installation date and the sales associates would put me on hold for a few seconds a d then hang up on me.
