Our bad experience with Pentacle Services
Pentacle Services is a service provider for providing plumbing, electrician, computer repair, air-conditioning and other services at a low cost. Although they are Delhi based, but they also have Gurgaon operations.
Somehow, they managed to get hold of our phone number and called us with their offer. Their sales pitch was good, and so we were interested. Here is what they offered:
They would take Rs. 500 and provide 15 free service calls where they will send an electrician or a plumber (based on what you need) throughout the year. There is no labor charge for these services, and you will only have to pay the charges for actual material used.
In addition they will also do 2 free services for the air conditioners.
And they promised a visit in the next 24 hours.
Well, this was the pitch. And we liked it. So, what went wrong? Everything.
