Before hiring someone to repair it, it is best to ask about the relevant charges in advance to avoid consumer disputes! A netizen complained that he recently asked a plumber to come to his home to repair an inverter. Unexpectedly, he was charged a “rush repair salary” of 5,000 yuan. He thought that he might have been cheated, and he was so angry that he shouted, “He stepped on a big landmine!”
“Landmines, landmines, big landmines, I emphasize them three times because they are very important, and I don’t want you to step on big landmines!” The netizen posted on the Facebook group “Breaking News Commune 2” that due to the failure of the TECO inverter at home, On November 8, we hired a plumber to repair the problem. I didn’t expect that replacing an inverter would cost 16,000 yuan. So I asked for a detailed receipt. I almost fainted when I saw it. “About one hour of work actually cost 5,000 yuan. It’s really scary.” .The funniest detail actually says the emergency repair wages (the customer’s call will arrive in 30 minutes).”
The original PO believed that he did not ask the plumber to arrive in 30 minutes, and only called to ask “when he would be free” to repair it. The other party also replied that he would go over after lunch, but he was charged as an “urgent repair”. “I I’m sure I’m not the first person to be knocked, it’s just that the people who were knocked dare not speak out.” I hope everyone can share this PO article to prevent more people from being deceived and victimized.
After the post was exposed, many netizens expressed their dissatisfaction on behalf of the original PO, “I dare not write about the salary for emergency repairs…”, “I respect professionalism, but the fees must be reasonable. The 5,000 salary for replacing an inverter is too expensive”, ” The price quoted by TECO for the inverter is a knock-on price. Basically, it means that it does not plan to do your second business. Moreover, according to industry rules, the repair fee needs to be informed to the customer in advance to avoid disputes.”
However, some people think that the price is very reasonable. “I’ve seen people waiting for a week and still not being able to get repaired. It’s very kind to handle the urgent fee immediately.” “Is it as simple as changing a switch or a lamp?” Can you repair it? What he sells is technology, not man-hours.”
