Horrible customer service
We purchased a new LG washer and dryer from Gerhard Appliances in Glenside on November 17, 2021, delivered on November 30. Due to the location of the dryer in the home, a side-vented dryer was needed. The LG dryer we purchased could be side-vented. We were assured multiple times that the dryer would be side-vented and ready to install prior to delivery - that was not the case. Calling customer service was frustrating to say the least. I received a number to call to set up an installation date for December 9th. That, however, was just to have the dryer side-vented, not actually installed. More phone calls - this time we were told it would all be taken care of on the 9th. We received a phone call on Tues, Dec 7 asking if I wanted to go to the warehouse and pick up the side vent installation kit - unbelievable. Silly us, we were under the impression that the authorized LG repair person would bring the kit with him/her. Another call to the store to customer service, asking for help - left a message asking for a return call. That call was ignored. We decided it was truly not worth the frustration and aggravation dealing with a company who, after purchasing products from them, offer no real solutions/help - you are left on your own to solve the problems they created. We will be dealing directly with the LG company to get the dryer properly installed . Another call to Rosa in customer service requesting a refund for the side vent kit ($70) and the installation of said kit ($139.99). She stated she couldn’t help, transferred my call. Surprisingly, (not really), that person couldn’t help, asking me why I was transferred to him, who then transferred me to another person. Liam, the final person I spoke with, was the only person who was helpful and stated he would begin the refund process. We decided to purchase the washer and dryer from an actual appliance store since we needed a dryer that could be side-vented - mistakenly thinking that would be the best. There is absolutely no way that we would ever purchase another appliance from Gerhards.
