I have a terrible story about the last HVAC technician that we used.
I won’t say anything bad about the company, because as soon as we told them what this guy had been doing, they fired him.
However, this HVAC technician was a fraud. He was actually inventing problems with our heating and cooling system so that he could charge us more and skim off the top. He knew that he wasn’t gonna have to use any parts that he would have to get from his company because there really wasn’t anything wrong with our heating and cooling system at all! He told us that we would get a big discount if we paid him in cash, and so that’s what we did. Little did we know that he was taking that cash and keeping it for himself instead of paying it to the company. That’s because there wasn’t really anything to pay the HVAC company for because he was actually inventing all of the problems that we were supposedly having with our heating and cooling system. I couldn’t believe that this actually happened to me. Usually I feel like I am pretty smart about things like this, but I guess in this case, I was really hoping that I would be able to get a good deal on the HVAC service that I needed to get. I can’t believe that we ended up losing money to these guys because we were too lazy to check out his background first. I guess we should have made sure that he had been background checked before we used him at all. I won’t make that mistake again, that’s for sure.
