    On 4-12-22 I had a service check done on my heat pump. The serviceman did not repair, replace or fix anything, just gave me a list of future repairs. Before he left he talked me into buying the Silver Maintenance Package for $165. which would cover all future maintenance calls for 1 year, starting on 4-12-22 and ending on 4-12-23 - He gave me a bill for $799. which included the $165 - He was charging me $634. for this call. and didn't fix anything. I called the office and complained that he overcharged me, and they agreed and reimbursed me $150. I called the Hauck office the last week of March 2023 to have a service check done before my maintenance agreement expired on April 12, 23 and they told me I had already used it - no one was ever out here again for any reason. They are refusing to honor my service agreement. I want my $165. refunded They are trying to take my $165. to make for the $150. overcharge refund. I have called the office 2 times and been told you used it. They are just trying to cheat me out of the money.

    We apologize that there was a misunderstanding at the time of the service call on 4-12-22.  As the technician was going through the system to determine what the issues were, he determined repairs that should be done in addition to some of the adjustments/cleaning that he did during the visit.  The technician recommended the Silver Maintenance package, because part of the process he was going through included all the tasks that are performed during a season check.  It should have been explained more clearly at the time that he was actually performing the season check that day.  Having a service agreement includes the season check as well as a discount on labor and material for repairs.  Therefore, the technician was able to discount the labor charge for the visit and also reduce the amount on the recommended repairs.  

    Again, we apologize for the miscommunication and we will be mailing out a refund check of $165 to you this week.  

    Sincerely,
