They send workman to apartment. Worker looks at stove and pretends to know how to fix with a single part. Asks for $50 fee in cash for assessment and $200.00 for advance payment for ordering part. Says he will return when part is obtained. We gave cash and asked for receipt and did not hear back. Worker gave us a phone number he said was his own. We were unable to reach him using that phone number.

The name of the company on the receipt is All Appliance Repair Pro. They change phone number on website daily and will not tell you the name of the company if you call the website number.

Thhe company is a scam

I was scheduled for a dryer vent cleaning and prepaid $225.00. The technician notified me he was on the way to the house at a time outside the initial appointment window and has, since then, not returned any phone calls when we have attempted to reach him.

I called Fix My Appliance Repair found on google to come repair my oven. A man, "Tony" came in the same day to look at the oven and said the plate needed to be replaced. He said the part would come in a few days and came back with a "faulty part." He was rude to me and my family then said he would order the new part. I've emailed him and he does respond with rudeness giving excuses for the part not here yet and hasn't heard from the company. Others have reviewed that they don't respond to them and have said they took their deposits and not responded. He is still rude and refuses to finish the job.

Searching for GE certified repair, came across Appliance Repair Now with the following phone number (571)586-5466. It was high pressure sale to book a diagnostic visit. Following the booking, searched for Appliance Repair Now reviews only to find out it does not exist. When called back to cancel the appointment, the representative stated that it was going to send a bill for $79. Asked if this was a legal and the representative stated this is how it works. Thank you for your assistance in this matter.

I found All Appliance Repair after doing a Google search for the repair of my stove. I called their number for a problem I was having with the stove ranges. They said their tech would be out that same day between the hours of 1:00pm-5:00pm. The person I talked to said there would be a $89.00 service call charge. He arrived late around 5:45pm. I told the tech about my concerns with the stove. He didn't speak very good English and was hard to understand. I finally was able to decipher from him that I needed new igniters for my stove top ranges. This all occurred on December 12, 2024. He said he needed a $150 deposit (not the $89 I was told) and that an additional $139 would be due when he would come back to repair my stove on December 20, 2024 between 1-5pm. He never showed up or called to tell me why he wouldn't be able to make it. I finally called them on December 31, 2024, and got an answering service. They told me the business was closed that day and New Year's Day and took my name, address, and phone number. I still have not heard from them. My $150 check has cleared my account and I feel like this was no more than a scam. DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS COMPANY. Furthermore, I am skeptical that I needed the repairs the tech was recommending. Don't get scammed like I did.

Scammer arrived and “diagnosed” the problem in 5 minutes. Ordered a part and scheduled a repair for Saturday between 5-9pm. Hours were odd but since I’ve dealt with many repairmen in my time, didn’t seem too unusual. When he didn’t arrive two hours into the appointment time, I attempted to call and he didn’t answer. It’s been a few hours after my appointment and he has still not arrived.

The company I found in google is "All Appliance Repair" number on the website 878-216-7890 (PA) and then it's routed to local appliance Technician, which is 703-349-6566 (VA)/301-841-7504 (MD). they sent a technician same day, said a part is needed for the refrigerator, so far, they have made 5 trips and can't find a resolution. The technician says he says he replaced this board few times and not working and he doesn't understand why it's not working. I have called the main office, a guy name Paul (very heavy Indian accent) picks up the call and very unfriendly, hangs up before listening to everything. I asked for full refund but he kept pushing me. in the morning he told call me after 9:30 am. which I did.Called again around noon today asking for refund, the Paul dude says call after 5 pm I have another calls on hold.

he came by to fix our dishwasher. He ordered parts, came by and took parts off, never put them back on and never came back. Charged us I think $200 and $195 and will not answer or return calls. I paid him via Zelle to Kevon Sampson - the number on his Zelle is 347-320-2265 but his cell is 347-707-5423. He's a piece of garbage.

Christopher Ballantine shot a meter in the freezer. He found it wasn't working. He took the back plate off the refrigerator and said the compressor was shot. He was at my house for about half an hour. He charged $69.99 for his technical service. He was given a credit card. He said he would call within a half hour if he could find the part. I got no response. I called the business phone number and was told he would call back in a few minutes. He never called. I looked online to see if this company is a bunch of scammers. There were many very negative reviews!

Come to your home to give diagnosis, order a part. Ask for payment for that. They do not actually fix anything. They do not answer the phone after that, only an automated voicemail which they don't return the call. Someone named "Paul" answers initial call and dispatches "Jay" and his trainee to your house. Jay doesn't really fix anything.

Very rude over the phone and impatient with me - did not show up at appointment time, and when I contacted, they promised, and held me up for two full days - then finally arrived, very disgruntled, repaired the appliance (microwave) and left - extremely rude, slammed my door.

I tried first to speak with them about what happened and receive partial refund for keeping me waiting for 1.5 days - but the “manager” was not available and the one who answered the phone was rude and hung up on me. I sent a ScamPulse.com complaint first - but the All Appliance Repair business called me back to indicate that it was the wrong business and that those posing as such were not legitimate. I attempted to track down the cats who left me with the invoice for payment, but they deny having serviced my address. When I called them and described the incident, the man denied everything and told me to ‘call the number on the invoice’ but when I did there was no answer.

Came to repair my LG Fridge which is not cooling and just looked at it and said the Compressor Fan is not working. I put a deposit of $150 and he was to come 4 days later. He comes changes something and I pay him a further $200 but the fridge is still not working. I call him the next day and Lucky becomes very rude and says he can come by and remove the part he put it. He becomes very nasty. So basically am out $350 and my fridge is still not working. This guy has been scamming people from Maryland to DC to VA for a long time not sure why no one has caught on.

I called a company that I found on the Internet to fix my Thermador Double Oven. A young man came to my house on April 19, and told me he could fix only one oven. He removed the motherboard and said he was sending it off and it would be fixed and would take about 3 weeks, but it might be back in two weeks. I gave him a $400 check as a deposit. (I had my oven fixed about two years ago by another company and they took our the motherboard and I sent it off. t took about two weeks.and then he repaired it and it was $1000.)

I called in three weeks and for three days in a row, I was told to call back the next day. My husband called and they told him they would put a rush on the part and would have it by this past Thursday. I called on May 19th and said it had been one month, so wanted a refund. They said they would check on the part and call me back and of course they did not call back. My husband called this morning and they told him that it must be another company with the same We are now out $400 and the motherboard that is probably worth some money.

I needed to get my oven repaired and signed up with Thumbtack to find someone to repair my oven. Shortly after I was contacted by text from Bernard of Gadson Home Services. Bernard said that for $110 dollars that he schedule the repair that same day. He requested that the payment be sent in advance through Zelle and once it was sent to text an image of the completed transaction. After the transaction was complete I was sent an image of a receipt with the Thumbtack letterhead. The receipt also included a refundable safety fee for an additional $185. Bernard then requested that I send the additional money, which would be immediately returned on completion of the repair. After the money was sent, no repairman ever showed up and I could not contact Bernard afterwards. Also when I checked on Thumbtack the next day, that company was no longer listed on Thumbtack.

I called the business number for appliances repair on Saturday, November 12, 2022, because my fridge was leaking. I found the service online. The number is 1 (877) 439-5079. I got an appointment the same day. Two African American guys came. Very friendly. I had to pay $400 for a new part (a "diffuser") by check. They came back on 11/14/22 to make the "repair" and charged another $318.36. Obviously, the fridge continued to leak. On top the scammer faked my check, created a "clone" check for $500, deposited BOTH checks and made $900. I never received an invoice for the new fake part. The name of the scammers are Rondel Anderson and Anthony. They provided a fake invoice with an email of my [email protected]. I am not sure if this is email address is real. According to Yelp (which I read too late) these people are at this scam for a while.
