      In October 2024, I contacted A & E Factory Services to work on my ******* refrigerator, smart refrigerator that was not cooling. They ordered a compressor for my refrigerator and once it was installed, I had a refrigerator for about a week and all the Freon ran out off the refrigerator because the person did not solder it properly. another representative that had come out and told me that the compressor was shot ordered a new one. This would fall under the 180 day warranty.. They ordered another compressor and another part that never comes in, The new compressor come in about a week the refrigerator started doing the thing. The technician come out multiple times because I was told in order for the protection plan to kick in that they would have to take pictures and videos. 180 day warranty were still under the part .technician has come out to my house more than 13 times at this point almost each time . please note that most every time that they come out, they were charging me $100 bill.. The technician told me that he thought that it was an internal leak and that he would fill out the paperwork for the refrigerator to be replaced at this point that it was not repairable.. company is saying they will not cover my refrigerator due to it was existing damage ,but then they want to take $100 out of my account each time that they have a technician come out here because they dont know how to fill out paperwork properly. this should not take six months for a company to decide that the refrigerator is no longer a functional refrigerator and keep taking money out of my account, knowing that they cant fix it.. there was even times that the technician would come out twice in one week because their company didnt like the way the paperwork was filled out and guess whos dime that was that was mine. The last technician that come out, a different person told me the bottom of my refrigerator is rusted I could show proof that thats a lie . I am asking for a full refund.

      Dear BBB Customer Relations,

      We have completed the investigation of Ms. ******** complaint and her dissatisfaction that the refrigerator has not been repaired

      Our record shows a service order was created on May 28th but it was canceled. We sent an email to Ms. ******* to see if they still needs a service recall but no response. A refund is not possible without a ***** technician confirmed that the compressor did failed again. If she does not want a ***** technician to come back we need a detailed diagnosis from another company showing that the part did not fixed the refrigerator. She can send us the detailed invoice diagnostic and what parts failed/or replaced.Once we received that information we will review and get back to her with the resolutions. She can send the information to me directly at ********************************************************************.

      We apologize for any problems or frustrations Ms. ******* may have experienced with ***** Home Services. We do value our customers and strive for their complete satisfaction, including a reasonable resolution of any complaints or problems whenever possible.

      I am rejecting this response because:

      The company has only replied they have forwarded to the appropriate area and are investigating, and monies have NOT been refunded. I am concerned how long their research will take or if it will result in a credit. I attempted to resolve myself before filing this complaint to no avail for over a month. I have been without the monies owed to me since later February, two (2) months. The refund must be provided before I consider this case closed/resolved.

      We have completed the investigation of Ms. ****** rebuttal to the response we previously sent.

      After reviewing Ms. ****** response, we contacted our service department and were informed that since ******** files a dispute with her financial institution, a letter of release of resolution is needed in to order to ensure that Ms. ***** is not issued a double credit.

      I am rejecting this response because: I will need to contact my financial institution/credit card company to obtain the letter of release of resolution.

      If the letter is obtained and provided, will the issue be resolved from the financial institution perspective/side? I understand the issue of potential double credit but want to ensure that providing a release for the BBB complaint, which I assume the purpose letter of release, doesn't closed the BBB complaint and the transaction dispute on the financial institution side is responded to and resolved.

      We have completed the investigation of Ms. ****** rebuttal to the response we previously sent.

      After reviewing Ms. ****** response, we would like to clarify that we cannot keep a complaint open at any customers request. As stated previously, once Ms. ***** provides the requested information, the credit will be released. We would also like to add that assuming no follow up cases are received, we can process the refund 35 days from the bank dispute. If follow up cases are received for the incorrect amount we will request reversal and it will push that date back further. If we receive follow up case for the correct refund amount due to the customer then we will accept on our end so that the bank can refund through the charge back process.

      We purchased an ** washer from ****** on 8/14/24. On 2/18/25 we noticed a bunch of broken plastic pieces in the tub after a wash. We called ** on 2/19/25 to report the issue. ** sent a tech out to our house using AE Factory Service to diagnose the washer on 2/27/25. The tech was very unprofessional and stated that the broken pieces are from something in the tub. He looked for parts and noted that no parts were available and stated that the washer should be replaced. The tech did not communicate this with **. Myself along with ** have been trying to contact AE Factory Services to get a statement from the tech or company for this issue and have failed to get a response from AE Factory Services.

      A & E factory services is the service that was sent to our house to diagnose the washer. The tech that A & E services sent out, failed to communicate with ** of his visit and repair needs/recommendations. It does not make sense for A & E services to send another tech out to our house, if they cannot communicate with ** properly as needed. I have contacted ** and they will not help me because A & E failed us on properly communicating with ** about the service visit. A & E services needs to resolve this failed visit for us by contacting and communicating with ** about the original visit. I would like to request the techs name and phone number or contact information they sent out to our house for this service call or request A & E resolves their failed service visit by contacting ** and communicating with them about the visit.

      We have a warranty repair contract through ***** Home Warranty/Cinch. A & E is the designated repair service of our service area. We contacted ***** in Mid December to request repair of our (covered) Microwave. ***** subcontracted the repair out to A& E, whom sent a technician to evaluate. The technician stated that the appliance could not be repaired, and that ***** would likely follow up shortly with a buy out figure. We waited three weeks, before reaching back out to ****** We discovered that the technician had logged our appliance as repaired. We had to start the process over again, and another technician came and ordered the parts deemed necessary for fixing our unit. We then reached back out to continue the process once the parts were shipped to us more than a month ago. A & E assigned the repair to the same technician (******) whom made the initial mistake. He then missed his morning appointment and then rescheduled for the following week. The following week, the same technician was assigned and subsequently missed his appointment again. This has now happened repeatedly, with today being the FIFTH cancellation in four weeks. I have stayed home FIVE different days awaiting the repairman! I have been a loyal service contract holder for more than 20 years, I do not understand how there is no accountability on behalf of *****, nor A&E to honor the agreement.

      I have had multiple service calls scheduled with A & E, they keep changing dates and cancelling appointments. I have been waiting on service for appr six weeks and have already paid for the service call. This is for a second home so we have to travel to be there. I currently have purchased a plane ticket to be there for a scheduled time and was advised today the appointment will be changing.

I sought for the bill to be cancelled as the part did not arrive and was verbally told November 18 2024 that the bill would be cancelled. ***** sent the amount of ***** to debt collection via a debt collection notice send on January 29 2025. ***** has verbally reassured the bill has been cancelled via phone calls placed February 7, 9, 10, 11, 12, 14, and 18 2025 but has been unable to provide a receipt showing the bill has been cancelled. ****'s changing of the billed amount and continued harassment for payment for a part that was never received is disruptive and illegal, violating both the Fair Credit Billing Act and Fair Debt Collection Practices Act.

      I am rejecting this response because it is the same response that had been provided over multiple inquiries and does not directly resolve the issue at hand

      Getting my washing machine fixed has been a terrible ordeal. Person who keeps coming out is great but I cannot get a hold of the company and every time he reschedules for things like needing to order parts or needing to track down the parts because they haven't gotten here.. each time he does that and I watch him on the phone and I know he does that and then there is no appointment scheduled and then I have to try to schedule an appointment again but they want to consider it to be a new appointment rather than just a call back. They want to charge me so much more money every time they come back even though it's their fault that the parts aren't here after the first time. I still can't talk to a person and I still have been kicked out several times while trying to schedule a new appointment without being charged the extra money for every new appointment. This is a crock. I have never had trouble with A & E before and I would go somewhere else if it weren't for the fact that they're holding one of my parts hostage. And the fact that I really like the guy who is coming back all these different times. I am putting my billing as around $600 or actually just $600 because you just want numbers. I know that my house might paid over $500 and I paid another $54 or so. So I'm just guessing it's near $600.

      Ive the ***** Protect plan. Ive had Maintenance plans with ***** for the last 20 years. Our dryer has been inoperative for the last 3 weeks. Weve had 3 visits and they have not repaired it. The second tech said that the timer needed to be replaced and left. The third tech did not bring the part with him and confirmed the timer needed to be replaced, this was last Thursday 1/30/25. He rescheduled the appointment to the following day. On Friday, 1/31/25, I received a notification that for unforeseen reasons my appointment was canceled and I rescheduled for Today, 2/3/25. The appointment windows are from 8-5. I cant continue to stay home all day. I just called ***** Repair to find out the status of my appointment and I was told that it has not been assigned. Ive asked several times to speak to a supervisor and they dont give me access. It appears no one wants to take responsibility
