ok so we havent had a dryer for over a week now. miriam first noticed it last friday, when she took the clothes out, that had been running for 2 hours, and they were still wet. the next day she ran it again for 3 hours clothes still wet.
so i called the office.
no answer.
called 3 more times.
no answer.
drove up to the office and waited until someone came in. told him my problem. he said he would call maytag on monday.
oh i forgot to tell you that i had come to the conclusion that it was the exhaust that was clogged.
anyway he calls me on monday, tell me that GE would be coming on wed. i told him it wasnt a GE but a maytag (same as i told him on sat). he says oops ill call maytag.
maytag calls says that the repair man will be here wed and will call the morning of.
ok wed, day 5 without dryer.
rapair man calls comes looks at it and determines its the EXHAUST (five points!) he tells maintenance to clean it out.
so i call the office and ask later that afternoon if it has been cleaned yet.
no.
she says that it will be cleaned as soon as they can.
thursday not clean yet.
friday i call the office again and the same girl says she doesnt know when it will be cleaned i should call back on saturday to speak to mel. she the lady i usually deal with.
saturday i tried once no answer, too busy to try again.
sunday i call, get through the second call and mel says they will fix it tomorrow, and miriam tells her how much laundry we have and if we can get compensated for it. so she gives us a key to another vacant apartment so we can use that washer and dryer. thats cool.
until i get home and discover our air conditioner is leaking water for the third time. and its gurgling again which means its full of water. i think im going to have to have a chat with someone that knows about air conditioners. i have a suspicion that they arent fixing it because they dont know how, and it might be costing us money. our utility bill has been twice as much for the last 2 months.
