NEVER BUY CARRIER A/Cs!!

By irrysa

I am experiencing some real A/C problems lately and just wanted to share with you guys and advise you NEVER to buy Carrier A/Cs because you will surely face the same problems as me!

I have a window A/C in my bedroom which is still not even a year old, under warranty.
Within last 2 months this is 2nd time it broke down and it is simply not cooling at all.
The first time it took them over 10 days for someone to come and check it out...
First time they have sent me wrong people...in a way that some guys came and said "Oh, this is Carrier, we don't do Carrier"
So I had to go through the same thing AGAIN!
Then it was fixed...for two months it was ok.
But so, what when it broke down again!!

Now I am calling them since TWO WEEKS and till now nobody came to fix that bloody A/C!
After I have called the shop where I bought it from, they give me some other number...that guy gave me another number...and so on and so on.
Finally yesterday they said "Ok, we are coming tomorrow for sure!" ...Riiiight!
When I called them today they gave me the same number as 1st time and said "You can complain to him"
I said I don't want to complain anymore, I want my A/C to be fixed! "No no, you call him on the mobile"

I don't want you guys to tell me to buy different A/C and so on...i already know that this brand SUCKS BIG TIME, not to mention the service!!

Just wanted to warn you if you will ever even think about buying it, just DON'T!!

Oh my God someone had a bad experience with one of the many companies in one of the many countries of the world! :o! I'm so shocked!

But seriously, looks like your a/c needs to be cleaned out.

Yes I understand the predicament, but just that may be the cause, because under warranty they will hardly move an inch - this is my opinion. underthe motto no money no honey.

CB, i would have done it long time ago, but this A/C is still under warranty...

TCOM-from all the ones i have used, i say General is quite good quality, long lasting, good cooling and really worth the money.

I've had LG as well-not bad, too.

It might be better to find a company that repair A/C's that go for customer service as they ae normally utterly useless.

My 2 A/C's broke down in the middle of the summer last year together so I had no A/C at all I saw a shop on the street and went in and asked them - they cam immediately and took one after the other for service and did a very good job on them. I live near Al Azizya street so they did not have to come far either, but in any case better than the hassle of the warranty. Check near your home if there is such a shop they will do it and bring it back very quickly.

it may be having a factory defect.... not all A/C's are 100% in good condition...

The Man...didn't u read that i use it the way u said it?

and it is not even a year old...i said it is still under warranty.

Hummer H3-i have to disagree that filipinos are complaining without knowing the cause.

even though i am not asian.

I am a maintenance technician,

Carrier AC is better than other brands, Good performance in summer seasons. Carrier is a heavy duty [wight] AC, if the technicians are not attending maintenance. In our company contract above 150 Carrier ACs . all are in good perfomence.

*Clean your AC filter once in a month.

*Service your AC once in a year.

*Keep your thermostat 40-80%

*Run medium speed.

Contact me for your AC maintenance/service.
