I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ***, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to meAlthough, they are still trying to justify an additional service feeIf they had sent a reputable contractor in the first place they would not have had to send a second out as I did pay a service fee to the first, thus there would be no disputeHowever due to the lack of service from the first contractor whom they chose it is their responsibility to pay that second contractor not meAt least that's how the paperwork readsWhy should I pay a second service fee when the error was on their part not mine? Still seems like they're saying the customers wrong when they are the ones that messed up by sending a shady contractorSo long as I get my money back instead of this justifying keeping more of my money business

claimThank you for the opportunity to review and respond
We do apologize for any frustration or inconvenience that Ms*** may have experienced during the claim handling processOur records indicate that on August 17, HBRWC dispatched the independent contractor Fixing It Air Conditioning & Handyman to provide a second opinionOn August 20th the contractor reported that the breaker, transformer, and capacitor had shorted out and required replacement
Upon replacing these items the system began running againIn turn, this caused the drain line to back upFixing It Air Conditioning & Handyman recommended rerouting the drain line to correct the repeated backups occurring with the drain lineWe would note that B-of our Agreement does state that, "We solely determine whether covered systems or appliances and their components will be repaired or replaced." Additionally per section of the Agreement, "We provide service for covered systems and/or appliances that: do not operate correctly due to wear and tear." Since there is no failure to the outdoor equipment or the evaporator coil, replacing them would not be eligible at this time
We regret that the water damage to the property is not eligible for coverage pursuant to section B-of the Agreement: "We are not liable for incidental, indirect, special, punitive or consequential damages or for bodily/personal injury or property damage." With this stated, all contractors utilized by HBRWC are required to be licensed & insuredThe first contractor, Austin Air Heat & Appliance is insured through Hooper & Hines Insurance, telephone number 214.327.6377, under policy number ** *** *** If Ms*** does with to pursue the property damage further she may reach out to Hooper & Hines for further assistance

Complaint: ***
I am rejecting this response because: This company caused a lot of heart ache and frustration for me and my family during the holiday seasonInstead of going above and beyond to fix the situation I continued to just get apologized too in a snarky mannerWhen I would call customer service which I did numerous times per day until the problem was resolved I was made to feel like I was a nuisance and I was annoying the companies employeesI asked to speak to a supervisor numerous times and either was told there was not one available or was sent to a voicemail where I never received a call back This was the worst experience by far that I have ever experienced with a companyIt is the middle of the winter during the holiday season and my family was without heatIt was not like I was inconvenienced by a broken dishwasherThis company did not take the issue serious in my opinion and I was continually pushed offI just couldn't believe the inconsideration by this company and I believe I deserve some sort of rebate or retribution for this horrible experience

We cannot begin to apologize enough for Ms***'s experience.After review of the claim, the refrigerator has been fixed.The behavior of the service contractor is unacceptable and is being addressed by our Contractor Relations Department. The contractors we use to perform repairs are
independent contractors. However we expect them to behave in a professional manner and since they did not, it will be addressed. Based on that conversation, the continued relationship with the contractor will be determined at that time. Due to the service issues and delay, we have waived Ms. ***'s service fee. Should the contractor attempt to collect from Ms***, she can reach out to us at our Customer Experience Department at ***.In regards to the lack of follow up by a supervisor, we have addressed this with the department manager as this is not acceptable. We will monitor their performance in the upcoming months through Quality Assurance to ensure this issue is just a one time occurrence and not an overall behavior of the staff
