AAAA Teva

My friend brought his television in to fix a part. Got charged $ 400 to repair it, with AAAA Teva’s assurance that «they fixed it». When the TV was brought back to the house, it had the same issues. So my friend had a different, certified repair company come to the house and check it out… only to find that the part AAAA Teva had «fixed» didn’t even exist on the television to begin with.

Rerun: TV repairman again accused of customer fraud
«Murib is currently prohibited from repairing consumer items per a Nov. 6 court order, and AAAA TEVA’s assets have been frozen until the case is closed, according to court documents.»

Horrible. Bait and switch experts. Called them on the phone and they told me «Bring your TV’s down and we’ll look at them and tell you how much it will cost to repair them. I drove all the way down there from Aurora, brought the TV’s inside. This skinny, kinda cocky salesman says „It will be $ 100 to diagnose the 40“ tv and $ 125 to diagnose the 46» tv, plus parts and labor. I said «That’s not what you said on the phone?» and he said «You don’t expect us to diagnose it for free, do you?» So I said, yeah, that’s what you told me on the phone. Then I told him «Why would I pay $ 100 to diagnose it, another $ 150 for a power board plus labor when I can buy a brand new tv for around $ 350. That shut him up immediately. Then I insisted he help me carry the 46» tv back to my car. He did in fact, but as soon as I got it in the car, he just ran back into the store and never said another word to me. Then I read all the reviews on Unilocal.OMG, stay away from these people. They are nothing but sheisters and will jack up your repair costs and keep your equipment way longer than they promise. These guys are bad news!!!

Brought my vintage turntable in for diagnostic servicing and repair they sat on the unit for six weeks did a few Internet searches didn’t know how to repair or service, didn’t know how to do a diagnostic. I had given them instructions to grease the bearings and to test the speed of the unit and to call me directly with suggestions on replacement tonearm and platt. After many weeks, I call and ask what’s going on with the unit, they say they’ll find out and call me back in two days. They never called me back. I call and ask what they’ve done. They say they serviced it. I tell them I want a refund and I’ll be in to pick up my unit. Going to pick up and be as for the supervisor he comes out and angrily says oh I know we’re gonna take care of you right now. Then he tells me I have to sign a piece of paper releasing from them from liability stating that they will perform no service to the unit in order for me to get it back or even inspect it, I have to sign the piece of paper. At this point I ask to inspect the unit and he refuses until I sign the paper and says I might run out with the unit and points to a surveillance camera. I’ve never been so insulted. This was the worst customer service made terrible after he treated me like a criminal and said I would be escorted out. Word to the wise, do NOT shop here. 175 $ spent for someone to do 10 minutes of Internet search and no follow-​through. They seemed well rehearsed to deal with unhappy customers and bilk them of 175 $ efficiently.

Like a used car lot only worse! They tell you what you want to hear to get you to come in and try to sell you a 1970s TV for $ 1,000 probably because it’s been sitting there collecting dust since the 70s because no one is stupid enough to buy anything there. Best Buy recycles tvs for free. They wanted over $ 100 to recycle my flat screen that was one year old. I’m shocked they didn’t say it was free and fix it so they could TRY to sell it for ten times its value.

Asked them for help with an speaker. Did not get any support. They were short, would not answer simple questions. Wanted money fist before really answering any questions. could not even prove they could fix what I was asking them too. Also told me on the phone they would give a free diagnostics and when I went in they charged me. I asked over the phone what the fee was and they would not give it to me. I would not use them.

This place is great. My husband and I purchased multiple tv’s and sound bar from here. They even price match and give you immediate one-​on-​one attention because it’s a local business! Definitely recommend it.

This company was terrible to an elderly friend of ours with advanced Parkinson’s disease. They completed quite a few unauthorized repairs, charged him a lot of money and returned his family heirloom radio broken (including missing the original glass that had the marking for tuning. I can’t believe that they can do business like this! I am looking for any place on the Internet to write a review of these people– hopefully at least others can be warned!

Took my Panasonic plasma to these guys after it overheated and caused an internal crack. They not only provided me with a really fair estimate for the work, they put a ton of labor hours into making sure that everything was back to factory specs. Not only that, they went way out of their way to perform a comprehensive write up to ensure that the warranty holder got an accurate diagnosis. Really recommend this shop.

Recently got a new TV and vacuum from here for my new home and I must applaud the team on how knowledgable they are on their products. The best part is they deliver! Their delivery team is very professional and considerate. Highly recommend.

On October 4^th, a sunny late-​summer Saturday in Colorado, I decided to take my sewing machine into AAAA to have a basic annual service done. I was under the impression that they were affiliated with the AAA service in downtown Denver; I was mistaken.
The place is a seedy looking store, but many repair shops are. The salepeople were helpful, and as I had called the manager earlier, they had been expecting me. Unfortunately, when I came to drop off my machine, I was told that I would have to pay $ 150 up front to have my machine «diagnosed,» though I had made it abundantly clear that I only needed a basic tune up. Despite this, I wanted to have the service done and over with so I can start my holiday crafting. The manager negotiated down to $ 75 up front, and I agreed.
I was told by the salesman to expect my machine in 3 – 4 days, as it was a simple procedure and he was putting a ‘Rush’ on it. I waited for the call. It never came.
I called on October 13, and was told that it would be done if I checked back Wednesday. The only information they had is that it was in diagnostics, or being worked on. Supposedly.
I called October 15, as I was told, and once again was pushed off to ‘a few more days’. The salesman took a very condescending tone with me, and said that they would need 10 – 15 days to repair it, and that was BUSINESS days– They don’t do repairs Thursdays or Sundays, apparently. No updates on the status, just that it’s stil being worked on.
I called October 17, that Friday, as I was told. Still no machine updates. Salesman put a rush on it. Told me to call back Monday. I asked if I could get a refund and pick it up, and was told they could not do refunds and that the machine was in their ‘warehouse’ and thus inaccessible.
I called October 20, Monday. Once again blown off. Told Wednesday would be the day to expect it to be finished.
I called Wednesday, October 22. The machine is still not done, there are no updates in their system. The salesperson supposedly put the receipt in front of their manager to follow up on it. I was told it will be done Friday.
If it is not done Friday, I will be demanding my machine back and a full refund. Never, ever, ever patronizing this place again. A basic service on a machine takes a week, at the absolute maximum. I have been without a machine to operate my business and personal crafts for 18 days, and the establishment has been useless in helping me get my property back, or telling me what the status of the machine is in exact detail.
Update: ¹⁰⁄₂₃
My mother has been helping me get on their case. She called 20 times between 2 – 6 pm yesterday. They told her it would be back in the store this morning. She called back this morning and Omar hung up on her.
I called them after this, and the manager was listening to the call when the salesman picked up. He told me they needed another 10 days to order a replacement part for a broke piece on my machine. (My machine had no broken pieces when going in.) I demanded that they reassemble it and have it ready for pickup by 5 pm. I will post an update after we attempt to retrieve the machine.
UPDATE: Sorry for the delayed update, but final results: We did pick up the machine, and I brought my father with me. There was no issue with the machine upon pickup, and it had been barely cleaned. There was no ‘broken part’ to be found.

Charged a $ 150 diagnostic fee on my plasma TV, which would be applied to any repair fees. Great, I said.
Paid up front? Uhh… ok, fine.
$ 450 extra (on top of the original $ 150) to repair the TV. Have to order parts from Panasonic, and charge more labor. AGAIN, required to pay up front. No way was I going to pay for parts/​repairs before I saw a working machine. Period. I decline repairs, they try to lower or «take a loss» of $ 50 on the labor. I still decline, and respectfully request that my TV be reassembled to the state it was in when I dropped it off (one of the HDMI ports and the antenna port still worked). Repair rep told me that it’s in their agreement that declined repair units aren’t guaranteed to work the same as when dropped off.
YOU’VE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME. I paid you $ 150 to potentially break my TV further?!
I pick up my TV, and ask if my $ 150 diagnostic fee can be used against buying something else in the store, like a Harmony remote. The sales guy said sure, the Harmony 700 (a discontinued product) is «on sale for $ 249, I’ll give it to you for $ 200 out the door.»
That discontinued remote is on Amazon/​Best Buy/​etc for less than $ 100.
I will never be returning here, and hope others figure this out before making the same mistake I did.

The repairs took too long (more than a week for a simple tune-​up), cost too much (even with a Groupon), and the sales pressure once you’re in the shop is just awful (let me show you this, oh you must have that, and we can tune it up but you should really buy one of these…). We will never return.

Drove 35 min out of my way on a Sunday to find out they closed early. They will not be getting any business from me. Disappointing.

Well my father in law took our hoover in for repair estimate. They used older tactics to get the repairs up to $ 185.00 for a $ 89.00 Hoover. They use the «we will call you for an estimate» tactic. When they call they say it is finished and here is your price. Not will you approve this estimate. Done all over the world. Stay away!

The guy at this place posted this review I had nothing to do with it. This place is terrible. Do not shop here

Would leave 0 stars if possible.
Required $ 125 to just look at vacuum. We wanted a cleaning and a diagnosis for an intermittent problem. We refused to pay that much so they lowered it to $ 75. They called more than 2 weeks later to say repairs would be an additional $ 295. We refused repairs and it took them another week to get vacuum back to us. The entire cleaning/​diagnosis took them 24 days.
I then took this same vacuum to the Dyson shop by Park Meadows. Got it back THE SAME DAY for $ 0 since it was under warranty.
Do your research (since we didn’t). If these reviews aren’t enough then check the BBB.

If you need small appliance repair and old school customer service, I’ve got Coloardo’s best-​kept secret: AAAA TEVA on Holly & County Line. These guys idle at «above and beyond.» Go!

This place appears to have different names, but the part of their name that appears to be consistent is the «AAAA» upfront.
Save yourself time, money, and emotional energy and don’t bother with this place. Honestly, I should have checked the reviews before «trying them out». The experience i had with them seemed to match other’s listed on here *and* other review sites. Awful!
Don’t get fooled by their nonsense about being in business for so long. My experience was a 2+ month nightmare with no indication that they truly did anything. Don’t get reeled in with any coupon specials, cause you likely may find that you will be paying infinitely more than you will get in return.

The lamp in my TV was about to burn out so I again went on the web to look for a replacement. Found many options for an after market lamp. Prices ranging from $ 52 for a «made in China» to a $ 139 Phillips. Also looked at Mitsubishi service dealers in the area. Found and called AAAAteval, they had the part, could not quote a price over that phone, said to bring it in. I asked if they could just change the bulb, they said certainly. I asked if it would be under a $ 100 and the response was… most likely. So I drove the 27 miles down to Centennial. Nice, large place, greeted as I entered by a salesman. Nice, friendly guy. Showed him the lamp, he said he would check on the part and get it replaced. I went off to order a pizza at Big Bills. Upon returning, he had the part, genuine Mitsubishi part, not a knock off, will last longer all good stuff… only bad part… it cost $ 249 but was guaranteed for a year. And if I bought three cans of dust spray and used it once a year I could get a 2 year guarantee. So, bulb, spray, guarantee, installed…$ 309. I stood there wondering if I was a fool. But, I payed and left.
Got home and went to the Mitsubishi site looking for parts. Found the lamp. The lamp, complete with the housing and a new bulb, direct from the manufacturer…$ 179.
So, I guess I was a bit of a fool and did get taken to the cleaners, kind of like a used car lot. Should have spent more time looking at options and not been in such a hurry to get it replaced. They made a few bucks off of me, that is for sure
Moral: slow down, look for options and if something appears to be overpriced, walk out.
