Re: September 2009
Hi All
Ok the biggest grip was the cost of the beer’s ect.So…i am making a trip in the next few weeks to have a look at anothe decent hotel chain with conference facilities but within a city centre which has numurous bars and resturants within a five minute walk.
this may well give us the option for a meal out on the thursday night,chinese/indian ect and a drink in pub afterwards.
It will be a central location also.any comments ?

just the other week in fact, Hygena washer dryer no spin, the customer couldnt wait for us as we were fully booked so they called THEM out, they quoted on motor and module or a new machine (the price they quoted was actually very reasonable for the machine) the customer wasnt happy as the engineer had only been in the house 2 minutes, we went out a few days later at her request, it needed a 20uf capacitor £8.65 for parts plus labour…
Re: Samsung SR2229CVW Defrost problem….
Hi
The first thing is to test the components…thermal fuse or heater.

Re: Samsung SR2229CVW Defrost problem….
Hi
It’ll be the defrost heater or thermal fuse….if the evaperator does not reach +17oc then the unit will defrost..by switching off then back on it resets the main board..it wont be the fans or pcb.

25 year old Bosch dishwasher I’ve fixed on and off over a number of years in the past. Last visit was in 1998 but meanwhile my sticker on the m/c had worn away and elderly customer resorted to Yellow Pages to try and find me in there instead? (I’m still in there by the way but haven’t got a half page one like these guys have..)
Unfortunately he called out this south coast firm as it advertised a local phone number (old trick) and thought it was me????:(
The young lad calls by in his blue van, drags the m/c out and sits behind it with a fancy looking ‘test meter’ (apparently?)….never removed any screws, panels or anything and after 10 minutes (most of which time was spent by him using his Bluetooth earpiece talking to ‘head office’.
He eventually declares that the pump is at fault and that it was OBSOLETE!!!!???? However….he could come back in 3 – 5 days time with a new dishwasher for only £189.99 plus his ‘callout fee’ of £59.99.
Customer pays the £59.99 and the guy leaves….
Customer feeling somewhat miffed and realising he’d called in the wrong firm spend a little more time in finding my last invoice from his filing system (1998)…He rings me and asks if a S210 drain pump is obsolete? I replied that pumps are readily available, I carry one on the van and queried why the hell he would want one anyway?..usually they just get blocked with something or other?
Today I removed a piece of glass jamming the impellor…All well and good, everyone’s a winner the customer the loser. The trouble is though that this firm get away with this scam 6 days a week every week. That rarely do I or other companies get wind of their dodgy dealings as more often than not, and certainly in this part of the world, customers readily afford the options offered by this bl**dy company. Virtually forced into into a situation where stumping up the money and getting them to take away the old m/c for a brand new heap of junk (most likely) is an easier option to take leaving little or no time for second thoughts.:(
Robbing, conniving, lying, devious barstewards they are…..:evil:
hope the customer is writing a nice letter of recomendation for the guys in blue vans to : Rebecca Adams
