Jim's Antennas 🏆 2024

QLD, BrisbaneTerrible customer service & Racist commentsWe called Jim’s antennas and they gave us a person for the area. The Asian man names Steven came buy checked and then yesterday he came to do the job.
He was required to mount our TV and get the TV antenna working. He did no... Read more
t get the tv antenna working but did the tv mount on the wall but broke the TV - the side that he was lifting. There were many red flags he was doing- he tried to put the tv to balance between the couch and the coffee table (?) then face down on the kitchen island to which we said it would damage it so then he put it down, but of course you think he’s a professional who knows how to do the job (?) He was handling it so rough and his side was cracked. Then he proceeded to tell us it was cracked before he got it which is absolutely untrue as we bought the tv the day before and there was no cracks before he came in our door. Then he tells us just tell the people the tv came cracked - again untrue. Then he starts saying pay for half of the job and we said no, because the antenna is not working and our tv is broken. Then he looks at his colleague or son and he goes, this is why you don’t work with Indians. Umm not every brown person is Indian. The colleague says sorry but this guy was just horrible and then he’s like take him to court. So the aftermath is that we have a mount but no antenna and a broken Sony TV. So to fix the problem he cause it’s going to cost more than 2.5k. We need a new TV and to check what he did to the antenna. Then we called customer service which was just not helpful and said they will come back to us in 48 hours. Anyway, logging everything here because you expect a bigger company to sort things out promptly but this was not the case. So far we have called 3 times to the customer service and emailed 2 times and no reply from anyone. I will update on here.Jim's Tree and Stump Removal 🏆 2024

One of the standout aspects of their service was th... Read moree affordability they offered compared to market rates, coupled with a robust warranty package that instilled confidence in the investment.
The installation process was a breeze, thanks to their diligent team. Notably, there were no unsightly wires flowing outside, ensuring a clean and aesthetically pleasing setup.
A special mention is owed to Manoj, the electrician who spearheaded the installation process. His expertise was evident throughout, and he even shared invaluable tips on optimizing electricity usage and maximizing the benefits of solar energy. His professionalism and dedication were truly commendable.
Additionally, I extend my gratitude to Cole and his team for their meticulous work in bringing the solar installation to fruition. Their efficiency and proficiency were evident at every stage, making the entire process hassle-free and efficient.
Solarmaxx has exceeded my expectations with their top-notch service, affordability, and commitment to customer satisfaction. I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone considering a solar installation for their home or business.

Thanks to the whole team from a very happy customer.

Nathan bent over backwards to recommend a 9kw system for my property, with a high quality inverter. The price was significantly... Read more lower than other quotes i had received for comparable systems.
There was minimal paperwork and a date for install was locked in. The install boys were pleasant and efficient and helped me download the app and how to use it. I have been pumping out the kWh with continuous days of 50+ kWh going back to the grid! Very impressive!
I would recommend Sync Energy to my friends, family, and even enemies - nobody should miss out on this sort of value!

MelbourneHigh prices - awful to deal withAdam from PlumbFirst / Home FirstServices contacted my 85 year old mother some 2 years after a previous job, came to her house and advised her that plumbing work needed to be done in her backyard and said he could do it the f... Read moreollowing morning at a cost of up to $17K. He asked her to provide an on the spot deposit for $2.5K. he also advised that her toilet needed to be fixed.
-with such little time it was by pure chance that my sister found out about it that same night. The cost seemed excessive, the urgency suspicious and some of their sales tactics seemed unethical to us. My mother agreed.
-it then took about 6 phone calls to cancel the job
-a second plumber we engaged subsequently said that the work didn’t need to be done for the foreseeable future, that he would charge roughly half of what they charged for the work if it was needed and also that the toilet didn’t need to be fixed
-Adam and co. stayed so long at my mother’s house in preparing the quote that she felt ill and had to ask him to leave so she could lie down. (It didn’t appear as though he was working on the quote for at least some of that time and I think its likely that the long time spent was a sales tactic designed to make my mother feel more obligated to allow him to do the work)
-Adam promised my mother he would refund the deposit, but it took a large number of calls and promises that were not kept from 3 more people and a whole month before she received a refund. (I believe all of this was habitual and deliberate, hoping that we would simply give up.)
PlumbFirst is owned by HomeFirstServices and I will be staying away from both!
