Beyond unhappy consumer

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

DO NOT USE SERVICE EXPERTS.

If I could give 0 stars I would!! Ill make this short and sweet!

Less than 2 year old $10,000 unit, has now been out of commission twice in less than 6 months.

The first time we had service experts come out to diagnose the issue with the unit THEY installed. The tech told us that the machine was built to break. When asked why they would sell it, he replied they can only sell you what they have. Before leaving he quoted us $2000 to fix the unit because it was no longer under warranty.

When looking on manufacturers website, we found out our unit was in fact still covered under warranty.

Now our unit is down again.

A 2 year old $10,000 carrier unit sold by SERVICE EXPERTS has been down twice in central Florida during the summer and THEY DO NOT CARE!

Im sure they will try to respond to this with a bot generated response, but just know its all a lie. They do not care about the consumer once you spend the money to install a unit.

This company is a JOKE

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

We have the advantage program, and it's been a total waste of our money, as we can't get anyone to ever come out to do maintenance and change filters. Instead, They asked if we can just go to Walmart and get the stuff ourselves) that's not part of the advantage program agreement), and just do it, or they book a day only to NEVER call or show up.

You call and ask what happened, and they said they called and left a voicemail saying they have to reschedule, which they had no record of. They never have on hand, what we need for the maintenance or changing of filters. One appointment, the guy was supposed to call 30 mins ahead of time and just showed up, then sat in the driveway for 20 mins, saying he'd be here in 15 mins cause he was waiting on someone else...in our driveway. Was he waiting for someone else in our house to do service, cause everyone was home.

JOKE JOKE JOKE company. Do not recommend ever, we just keep them cause we'd have to start over in finding someone else and get all new equipment, as they take all theirs.

And the advantage program...you NEVER pay off the system, you just pay on it forever and ever, even though the service is horrible. Ugh

Scammers take advantage

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

My HVAC went out on July 4, 2021. I called Midway Services, who sent out a repair person. A salesman also came with him to sell me an HVAC unit as well as a water heater. I was not advised that the 'service contract' would only be for service and not to pay off the purchase, even though I am also paying sales tax!

I cannot get a straight answer from Service Experts, who also said if I have questions about the 'service contract', I should speak with Midway Services. Midway services passed the buck and said I should get all my questions answered by Advantage.

I told Midway that Advantage told me to talk to MIDWAY about the service contract. It is a complete runaround.

Midway assured me they would contact Advantage and get this escalated and have someone contact me for further information.

I will be escalating this myself with Pinellas County Consumer Affairs.

Beware... Scammers.

Preferred solution: Full credit for paying $233.25 every month since July 2021 inlcuding the "sales tax" of $15.26 each month, put towards the payoff figure to satisfy the purchase of HVAC and Water Heater.

User's recommendation: Ask more questions before purchasing this scam.

I am giving an excellent service review on your employee (DAX). He is was very understanding and patient explaining had to do. He will go very far with his kindness and knowledge.

He was very polite when he arrived. Checked out the issue to see what was going on and what was needed.

He also explained what he was going to do. I would give him a 5 star rating.

Company fixed the issue and I have been provided with apology. They elevated my appointment and got me seen asap, however they still forgot to provide me with filters as stated in my contract.

Original review Feb 10, 2024

Think twice gave this company 5 stars for my last interaction with them. However, I've been waiting for a 12-4 appointment and it's now 5:12pm.

I called and asked if there was an issue but was told the technician was on his way. I asked for filters last time and the technician didn't bring them.

I asked for them this time and I guess I won't receive them again. It's funny that they will delay appointments, or forget to bring supplies that are indicated in our contract, but WILL NEVER BE LATE to withdraw funds from my account.

What "pissed me off" about this company was their predatory actions. This "mistake of judgement" only cost $135. Numerous bad reviews on various venues is really all I want to do.

Original review Sep 26, 2023
Their national website is a fraud. One so called five star review read, "Arrived 2 hours early.

Did not perform maintenance. Unprepared."
We called in the Boca Raton, Fla company to look at a frozen AC unit. Within minutes of arriving at my daughter's condo, they were trying to sell her a new unit "for only" $200 per month for the next 119 months.

They also told her that her water heater would fail one day, and they could also replace it for "only" 50 per month for the next 119 months.
She called in another reputable company, Engineered Air, and immediately the tech asked, "Who removed the inside and outside disconnect switches?" Was this sabotage or forgetfulness?
They claim to offer a 100% satisfaction guarantee, but neither the local office or corporate would tell me how. (The corporate office is just an answering service, who will NOT forward your call to anyone other than the local dealer.) The guarantee is shown below in the media files.

Compliments for service received today

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

Earlier today I received maintenance service on my HVAC system by two of your experts (Tulasi and Lester). The two were very nice and polite, and obviously knew what they were doing.

I now know that my system is in very good shape, but needs a duct cleaning as could be seen from the main filter condition. That will be taken care of immediately.

We have used Service experts for a few years now and they are always available, very helpful, explain things well. Hones, truthful and make sure things are right before they leave. Hayes and Pat were at our house and worked very hard and efficiently to get things corrected!

I would recommend them to anyone needing this type of service.

Refusal to honor Advantage Agreement UV Light Annual replacement

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I signed an Advantage plan agreement on 9/4/2021. Owen George was the salesperson who wrote the contract.

Mr. George went over all the savings of the Advantage program to justify the additional cost of the program. A very key element of the cost was the promise to replace the UV bulbs annually and how much money that would save me not having to buy the bulbs myself.

On the Service Experts website they state, "The UV bulbs will also require replacement in the long run. Yearly work on these systems includes replacing the bulbs, which is typically $130.

My unit has two bulbs, my first call to have them serviced a year ago was like pulling teeth, it was obvious they didn't want to replace them.

After constant calls and complaining they finally replaced them.

Another year has gone by and once again they show up without bulbs. As soon as I mentioned replacing the UV bulbs I could feel there was going to be a problem. The tech said the reason they didn't send bulbs with him was on account they didn't know which bulb. I found that hard to believe.

The tech opened up the unit and soon told me that I have two-year bulbs, so they didn't require changing.

Now I feel as though I've been lied to twice. Service Experts need to live up to what they advertise and promise in their contracts.

I'd like the company to replace my two bulbs annually as promised in the contract and on their website.

It's been painful dealing with this company.

Lack of service.

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I have requested furnace filters from Service Experts since June, 2022 I have called once a month since that time. Last Tuesday, September 20, I called once again.

I called the Ravenna Ohio office and spoke with Latoya. She apologized for all the problems that I had been experiencing. She further stated that the filters would be delivered tomorrow morning. I guess I should have asked which tomorrow morning are you talking about?

The filters still have not been delivered! Todays date is September 25,2022.

I have been trying to get filters since the middle of June, 2022. I have called once a month since. I have not called this month. The filter that is currently being used is extremely dirty. It is now

black. I tried to take it out the other day and it bent on one side.

Like I said , I called the Ravenna Oh office every month since this past June when I scheduled my yearly inspection. When the tech came, I inquired about the filters. He said that he didn't have any and that I would have to call the office. Although just one week earlier I had spoken to someone in the office about needing filters So that day in June I did call the office and I was told that they would have fed x deliver them.

By the middle of July still no filters! I called the office again, this time I was told that the store would deliver them. Still no filters! August came and I had to call Billing about my Bank account and changing some information.

At the end of that conversation, I asked if she knew how I could get furnace filters? She called the Ravenna office And transferred me to that office. I was once again told I would be receiving the filters in the next couple of days.

To date, September 15, 2022, no filters! I am hoping that this might have some kind of affect that I will have enough filters to get me through the year.

I finally received a box of 12 filters the end of September 2022. Since the filters are to be changed with the seasons, these should last for approximately 3 years. Thank you for any help that you may have given.

Poor Service and unreachable management

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

HVAC leak. Finally able to get a technician out to see (original tech refused to go in attic as he saw a snake shed - I immediately called exterminator and he removed it - it was old ).

I get it but there should have been someone else. When I finally got someone to come on Monday he was able to tweak a bit but didnt want me to run air lower than 75 until they came back. 5 days later, cant get them to come back. The manager I spoke with changed story multiple times.

I called at 4pm and was told that all managers had left for the day and that they would send an email. Received a call today and was told that they should have called me but didnt. Then told me that I need to get with my insurance and they can fight it out. I asked for the GM and was told that hed email the group and someone would contact me in a few days.

No ownership or follow up.

Meanwhile their commercials and hold music go on and on about their service. Ummm what ?
