The company quoted me for installation of ice maker for a new fridge, $60, and claiming a maximum of $70 for running the water from sink area to the fridge. I cleared it 3 times with them and each time they said the maximum will be $130 CAD. A guy with a bad attitude from the start shows up. He starts right away putting a bill of $60 $70 $45, $45 to install a water valve, claiming the condo supposed to have it. And making me sign it. I protest a bit, but at the end say fine, if its just a $45, maybe won't worth arguing. After installing these, he claims that I would need a stainless steel water hose, which will cost me an extra $88. Claiming %90 of fridges supposed to have it, shouting when I protest that it is not his fault and so on. After lots of argue, I pay him for running the water there ($70 $45) and make him leave.
After some research, I concluded that based on the manufacturer manual, as well as all other references, there is no need for such an expensive part. Then I look at the invoice that I got from the guy and notice that he has charged me a %13 HST, while there invoice contains no GST/HST number, no phone number, no address, nothing...
I searched industry canada for the stated company's GST reference, there is none.
The worse part is that they got recommended from a "The Brick" sales agent.
It is FRAUD. Do not trust them.
