to be honest, i think the condensed air is not the only cause of the puddle. is the problem even fixed? if not, it's like paying $38 for him just to drive over but not fix it. i personally think his attitude wasn't friendly, but i'm not familiar with repair costs...

Most big places will charge upwards of $60 to just have a look. Stop your bitching.

i guess he was right in saying ppl like you are cheap/get tricked easilly... lulz..
and really $30 for being ignorant to the fact of water is condensing on a bag and dripping is fairly good, like others have said you could have been had for wayyy more money

The fact that your mom had to call a repairman likely means she couldn't fix it herself.
Ignorance cost your mom $30. Could be worse.

This sounds like a start of a porno. Did your mom refuse to pay the $30 and instead offer some special service as payment?

and FUCK YOU u could've jus not read my post shit face | I'm gonna take the neutral ground and think there's two sides to this one.
An ordinary person, let alone repairman, wouldn't go out of their way to spite anyone like this - especially a customer.
The information being presented is only from one side of the conflict, and therefore it is illogical for any of us to label that company as rude/bad service based only on the OP's comments.
As a side note however, the grammar and language was both horrible and filthy. Instead of simply treating it as an eyesore, I found it refreshing and self-assuring that I was likely far more educated and refined than the OP! Ha!

The problem wasn't fixed. He just basically explained what is going on for $30.

What are you bitching about?
I could have given you 30 bucks and you still wouldn't know what to fix. Takes knowledge to know what went wrong and that's what that 30 bucks was for.

Someone's never taken law.
They're allowed to charge you industry standard for coming out and checking it for you.
You think they're just going to come for free?

On the other hand, your mom didn't have to pay him the $30 if she didn't want him to tell her what's wrong.

That is exceptionally rude and he was being a bigot. What would a normal person do?
"I have a minimum half hour charge on all issues"
No need to call her cheap and be rude about it. Whether I vacuum the condenser or replace it, I'm charging you half an hour to start.

i don't know why is it so hard to understand is not about the money its about how he is fishing for it and then he claimed that he could've tricked my mother in order to get payment
