    I had a leak in my home. A contractor suggested I call a leak detection company to locate exact location of leak. I called American Leak Detection and explained the problem, they assured me that they could locate the leak for $400. I was not informed of any service fees or additional plumbing additions would be needed. The person on the phone expressed and guaranteed me that their person would locate the leak at no additional cost. When they came to my home, they advised to have a hose bib installed by a plumber (additional cost for me) in order for them to locate the leak. When I talked to American Leak, I informed them that they did not locate the leak. Why should I pay $400. She said for a service fee. I stated I should have been informed of the service fee in the beginning and why is the service fee the same price as the job. She then said well we have to be paid something for coming out. I stated to her this should have been discussed before they came out. She then said the cost would be for $150. She sent me an invoice for $150. I expressed $150 is too much and the invoice states cause/origin not service fee.

    I engaged ADL on June 17 to carry out a leak detection at the above address (my house) I was told by the lady answering the phones, explained that if the house had non sleeved pipes, they would be able to pinpoint the leaks but if I had sleeved pipes, they can only identify Point A and Point B. I have sleeved pipes but they only identified point B and not Point A. I could have done that myself as I had already had some tiles taken out to have a better look at the pipes. I feel they have not delivered the Service that I paid for. I called Diane, the lady answering the phones and on the last call, she advised that she would pass this matter to her Manager, who would call me back. He has not. Any subsequent calls to the company are not being answered. I have tried at least four times. In the end, I have disputed the charge with my Credit Card company
