My brand new condo in Miami, FL had a washer/dryer unit in the closet. Within 3 years of closing, the Maytag 4.0 cu. Ft. Neptune Electric Dryer stopped working. I had my tenant provide me with the service number on the serial tag and called for repairs. Here's the timeline as it played out:

12/06/10 - called to have a technician come to fix the unit, scheduled for 12/14 between 8-12

12/14/10 - no show at 12, tenant called and found out that parts had not been ordered for repair yet - rescheduled to 12/28

12/15/10 - parts ordered by A&E for delivery to service center in Hialeah

12/17/10 - first part delivered to Hialeah, FL and signed by Irizarry: 1ZE1W8501247908427

12/20/10 - second part delivered to Hialeah, FL and signed by Andrew: 1ZAE71031227619174

12/28/10 - no show, technician called and asked if my tenant had the parts and refused service after learning he didn't - rescheduled to 1/6

01/06/11 - no show, technician called and asked if my tenant had the parts and refused service after learning he didn't - rescheduled to 1/18

01/18/11 - no show, technician called and asked if my tenant had the parts and refused service after learning he didn't

Total number of days my tenant stayed home from work waiting on a technician: 4
Total hours spent by me and my tenant trying to sort issues out: 10-15

End result: I ordered a new dryer as I didn't believe the insincere apologies given to me by A&E, I couldn't rely on another promise of waiting for a repairman only to have him call up and cancel because they couldn't figure out that they've had the parts in their warehouse since 12/20. Being a service center - I don't understand how they provide no service and make no repairs, but continue to stay in business.

    Wow! if I didn't live in another state, I would think you were talking about me. Bought a Whirlpool washer Feb 2010 stoppped working in 7/2010. Several no shows from service tech. Again stopped working 12/10 A&E came to look @ machine 12/27/2010 tech tore machine apart stated several parts (5) needed to be ordered including outer basket again. Three months almost to the day the machince was finally fixed after many phone calls to Home Depot, Extended warranty company and A&E, because the outer basket needed to be made (@ a cheaper price)parts were not arriving(back ordered) It was stated by all companies involved that was the hold up. A different tech came out to repair washer after parts finally arrived. After looking at the washer for several minutes he stated that the only problem with the washer was a simple hose that was torn. So he ordered the hose which came in 3 days after he ordered it- and tech fixed the washer in fifteen minutes. I am 62 years old and still work, I had to drag my husbands and my laundry to the laundrymat every week for three months. It was physically hard on me plus it cost between 20-30 dollars a week. Nice going A&E I am sure I will recommend you to other people. I am sure I will not purchase any products you service.
