I have a company that services my rental properties.
Their standard service call is $ 130.00
On top of that I pay from the time their service tech. is dispatched from their location till they are finished with my job. Also $ 130.00 per hour.
An example: Service tech was dispatched to my location at 8am Friday. Arrived at my location at 8.30am. Tech. was at my location 2 hours performing work.
I was billed for:
$ 130.00 Service call
$ 325.00 2.5 hours labor
$ 455.00 Total bill
I thought the idea of a service call charge was for the cost to get the tech. and equipment etc. to the job site.
It just seems like I am paying double, paying for a service call and also paying dispatch time.
