    April 2024, swiped card on washer three times, washer would not start. Had put clothes in washer, bleach in dispenser and laundry detergent in dispenser. Upon removing clothes beach had dispensed and damaged sheets and then spilled onto cargo pants I was wearing. Showed damage to worker. Contacted Associated Services Corporation via certified mail. They called and said they would refund money lost in machine but not clothing damaged as was fault of bleach left by previous customer. Informed them I had been using laundromats over 30 years and it was obviously damaged machine and incorrect dispensing of my bleach. They said someone would call me but they never did. Need $105 in lost money and damage to clothing/sheets.

    When a washer does not start a cycle the customer's credit card is not charged, however, there may be a bank "hold" that will clear in a few days from the customer's account.  We would gladly process a refund to the customer's credit card account if he would provide proof it was charged and his card number so we could verify. We offered this in the letter we sent to him on 5/3/24.Also in this letter is the explanation for not replacing his items.  Our stores are unattended during the day and listed as self service and we have signs stating that we are not responsible for damaged items.  There is no way for us to monitor what each customer washes and what they wash with (i.e. Bleach, Detergent etc.).  I am attaching customer's original letter and our response.  We would be glad to refund the credit card charges if information is provided I stated, but we do not feel responsible for damaged clothes.Thank you

    I visit this this business frequently and I went in one day to do laundry and put in a 5 dollar bill for quarters. The machine ripped my 5 dollar bill in half and only gave me half of the bill back. I emailed the company 3 times with no response and no response when calling the phone number. I want to be refunded the money and I would like you to make the company comply with this.

    I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and find that this resolution would be satisfactory to me.  I will wait for the business to perform this action and, if it does, will consider this complaint resolved.
