    I contacted this company repair the washer at my daughter's place. They quoted me $354.70. They came out and then he told me in order to fix it they would have to charge an additional $133 to fix it. I had to pay $157 for a service call. I sat there all day just for him to tell me he couldn't fix it. I got an email from them stating I cancelled. I only cancelled after he said it would costs $133 more. I have documents with this information.

    The estimate provided for this repair included replacing a worn Hub.  Once the technician attempted to replace the worn Hub, he discovered advanced stages of rust below the machine Wash Plate which could not be detected prior to reaching this far into the disassembly process.   The technician offered to replace the Wash Plate and finish the repair only charging the additional cost of the part no additional labor was being requested.   I'm sorry *** ********* washer needed more repair then initially determined however we did over to assist with the additional repair by only charging the cost of the part and absorbing all the additional labor cost.   Estimates are provided to be within a reasonable amount of the final completed repair cost:  on rare occasions, hidden or on foreseen condition exist which exceed the estimate provided.  At that time, a customer is made aware of the additional repair needs and provided a new estimate, the customer then determines if they wish to continue or stop the repair.   Our technician with my approval offered a discount on the work needed to complete this repair, *** ******* elected to stop repair.  If ** ******* has reconsidered we will honor the revised estimate price provided by our technician

    Complaint: ********



    I am rejecting this response because:



    Why would I agree to the $354.70 but not the $319.95? They are now saying I cancelled because of the new invoice, which is cheaper. This makes no sense. I want them to clarify why they won't honor the original work and invoice. Can you please clarify what discount they offered? I was never offered anything. I signed a phone, but it wasn't for this invoice.



    Sincerely,
