    Status:
    Answered
    August,2023 I called Barth Electric because the electric outlet serving my washer was not working. A serviceman was sent out to inspect the problem. From the time he arrived, he kept saying that he didn't know what could be the cause of the problem .What we found was that he was taking the extention cords that he could find in my basement and plugging them into my refrigerator and washer so they would work! He didn't ask us anything and left the other appliances unhooked! When he got ready to leave, he simply stated that he would need someone else to determine our problem, and we would hear from them. That was 7 months ago! There has been no follow-up or communication since then. I recently, (March 5,2024)received a bill from this company for $250 with no indication of any services. I immediatly contacted them to complain that there was no service extended and I refuse to pay this fee.
