Central A/C Service or Repair
Alex Ortega told me that for a $75.00 service fee. He will locate the leak. He even added that it could be a problem small as just turning a simple knob to fix the leak, he promised to be at my house from 11:00 am to 12:00 PM I was surprised when he called me the next morning and said he will be there sooner then 11:00 am. He said that he had a cancelation and that he could come early. He arrived to my house with an associate, a young man that he called Jr, I stood at my A/C with Alex and Jr. Alex used a wireless app to f out if the A/C system had any Freon, he told me... yes you right you do not have any Freon in your A/C! He asked to go inside my house to check the tank connected to the A/C. He found no leek, he asked, did you check the filters? I said yes the filter is clean he said you have 3 options as to how I can check the leak. I said well... within the service please find an option to find the leak. Then I walked back downstairs, leaving Alex and his associate upstairs unattended, Alex and the associate come downstairs and Alex said, Over the phone, I told you, that I will tell you about options within the first hour. I looked up to him then I said... for $440.00 you are going to do what? Alex said I will check for the leek and fill your tank with Freon. I told Alex for $440.00 go ahead and fill my tank with Freon. Alex said ok and he said he will not charge me the service fee. His exact words were I will just eat that! He went back outside with his partner and I believe he was filling my A/C tank with the exact appropriate amount of Freon. Minutes later, less than 5 minutes later, he entered my home for payment. He quoted $380.00. I handed him, cash the amount he asked for. He showed me how to sign the receipt on his phone. He reminded me that I had a slow leek, it could be another 3 years before it goes out again. When I contacted angi to file a complaint, Alex returned my call he promised to refund $380.00 within the next seven days. Alex decided not to refund me. Not once during my phone conversation with Alex on July 14th, 3 days after he serviced my A/C, nor did he attempt to apologize or offer to resolve the problem, instead, during the July 14th conversation he said, I knew she was going to be a problem the moment I met her... On July 14th, an Angi representative heard the entire conversation between myself and Alex. At this point Alex is refusing to refund me.
Response from Alexander F Ortega
"Ms. Thomas, I hope you received my text earlier about options to help, I have attached a copy of my text to the bottom of this reply. As I read your review I am a little shocked you gave me half a star... As you stated I arrived early, I offered options for repair to fit your budget, and I even gave you a discount. I understand the options for repair may be costly for you, however, I feel my pricing is very fair and competitive. Again, you declined all given options for repair and specifically requested that I only fill your unit with refrigerant, which I did. As you mentioned in your reply above, I did inform you of the leak and you acknowledged it."

My unit stopped cooling and Apex got it up and running within the same day. Alex came to our home and was very professional, timely, and detailed in his explanation of our repair options. I will gladly recommend this company to family and friends!
