All up - $200 to squirt some hot water through my aircon which took a total of 10 mins. Money well spent.... NOT!!!! Maybe it's me, but I would have just charged the call-out fee at a minimum and waive the service charge because I would have it in the back of my mind that it could lead to repeat business. We won't be calling this company again.
Wow, that sucks man! Its one thing to charge a call out fee (which is understandable) but to hit you for $200 bucks cor squirting some water? That's just flat out robbery!
