Ryan was very knowledgeable and gave me a lot of practical options to implement my project. I would definitely recommend him - he demonstrates a great deal of proficiency and a customer first approach in what he does.

I had an installer, Michael, come to my place recently, and he was quite helpful and friendly. However, we were not prepared with the necessary parts for the installation. Despite this, Michael spent a considerable amount of time explaining various technical aspects to us, almost like a tech class. My knowledge in installing such equipment is limited, so I appreciated the information. In the past, we had a technician named David who was exceptional. He assessed our needs, didn't charge for the initial visit, and provided clear guidance on what was required. He later returned to complete the job. However, in the recent visit, we were charged $160.00. This fee was attributed to the technician's extended visit, during which he extensively discussed our requirements and attempted to configure the equipment. While we value his efforts, it does not seem justified to pay this amount for a job that ultimately remained incomplete. I believe a fairer charge would have been in the range of $60-$80, covering the technician's visit. Furthermore, despite the technician's explanations, our limited understanding of electrical work makes it challenging to benefit fully from his insights. Additionally, when he left, we encountered issues with our game system that had been previously working. This experience has left me questioning whether I would use their services again. I've noticed similar feedback from other customers who expressed dissatisfaction with paying $160.00 for services that were ultimately not rendered. While I understand the concept of a service call fee, the pricing seems excessive, akin to the cost of a domestic round-trip flight. I hope to see more reasonable pricing in the future, as it would make me reconsider using their services in the future.

Amerisat's reply
Mona. I am sorry that you feel we didn't deliver the service you were expecting. We were extremely clear about what our rates were prior to scheduling the service call via messages through thumbtack. You requested two speakers to be mounted. We called multiple times to discuss your options and what equipment you had. You booked the appointment without speaking to us. When we arrived we investigated that the equipment you had would not accomplish what you ultimately wanted (surround sound). We could have just gone ahead and mounted the speaker which is what you originally wanted but we took the time to find out what you wanted. Instead of charging $320 which was originally discussed we only charge $160. The cost of providing quality is high with gas, insurance, tools, training, and vehicles. That's why we are very clear about our rates. I am not sure who "David" is but it isn't fair to expect all companies to have the same pricing. Furthermore, electrical work was never discussed. If you had spoken to us about electrical work then we would have suggested a different company. I am sorry that we weren’t able to deliver on your expectations. If you call around you will find that our service and pricing are better than our competitors. Please let us know if you need anything from us.

AmeriSat provided a competent installer and moved quickly to solve my security camera issues. The value seemed very fair and the work was done ahead of time.
