“Plugged Toilet”

Georgie F.
9/9/24

Joshua gave me excellent advice and information on how to fix our plugged up toilet. He was patient and explained the different techniques and possible reasons we had a problem. And this 83 year old female did it! Thanks!

“Wrong schematics”

Michael S.
9/2/24

Trying to find a wiring diagram for my 2021 Ford Ranger. Was sent nice colored schematics, which turned out to be incorrect. In all fairness, the Ford dealership didn't have the right schematics either. Nothing seem to match the vehicle. We identified the proper wire by using the pin that it was attached to rather than the color of the wires, which were not correct by either person.

Our 12-year old beloved doggie, Buddy, had been under the weather for more than a week - lethargic, not drinking or eating much - but every few days he seemed to brighten up a bit, only to sink back. He had so few symptoms that we didn't take him to the vet (and the charges to see the vet are so high!) - we thought he'd "get over it," like a cold or the flu. I wrote Dr. Andy one evening as Buddy lay asleep with his head on my foot as usual, and asked him about Buddy's symptoms. Dr. Andy said Buddy's symptoms for a 12-year doggie for over a week definitely must be checked by a local vet. We took him in to a ER Vet that night; he couldn't determine the cause of his problem(s) after doing all the tests we had determined we could afford. We brought Buddy home with us, and after snuggles, put him in his bed in our bedroom. He passed away in the early morning hours. We will miss him so.

We are so thankful that Dr. Andy apprised us of the seriousness of Buddy's condition, and the importance of taking him in to see a vet. I believe we would have had some guilt if we hadn't consulted a vet.

I felt the answers were read off a sheet. No empathy or understanding. What answers I got, I got the same answers googling for 2 minutes. Save your money. Go to a real lawyer.

As far as luxury appliances go JustAnswer saved my life. I had just purchased a Thermador ProGrand for my beachfront home in Mexico and only been using it for 2 months. So when it broke without any Thermador service or warranty imagine my disappointment. I'm not one to just lay down and I've searched the internet for solutions without barely any information. I guess I'm one of the only people that voided the warranty on their luxury appliances :) One thing I did find was a JustAnswer response to a different thermador problem that spanned a period of about 6 months and ended in a fixed appliance for a person in Guam (also without service). I was impressed by both the intelligence of the response and the stick-with-it ness of the service.

My experience was even better. Rusty, the appliance tech, pointed the problem out specifically with diagrams out of the service manual and provided me with information that will help me with any future problems with this appliance.

Thank you JustAnswer.

I have only used justanswer once. I had a problem with my dishwasher. It was not heating the water. I had replaced the heating element which was a huge pain and it did not change the behavior. I came across justanswer and thought it was a scam but tried it anyway. The next step was a plumber and $$$.

I described the model, the problem and what I had done to try and fix it. I was fully expecting a answer telling me to replace the heating element again. Instead, I was told that on this model there was a common problem with a burned power relay on the control board.

I took out the control board and there was a big black spot under one relay. I tested the relay, put it back in and repaired the connection on the PCB. I put the control board back and now it works!

The answer was spot on and I did not have to hire a plumber. I gave the tech a stellar review and gladly paid the $38 which I thought was really high at the time but the plumber would have been 10x that + $200 for the new part.

I would use the service again but I do not see any reason to subscribe.

I wanted the advice of a Real Estate Attorney. On the JustAnswer webpage where they ask for your Credit Card data it clearly stated in the header "Real Estate Law." The next line said, "Get your answer from a lawyer in minutes"!... So, I contracted to talk to a RE Attorney. I was told I would be connected to a Real Estate Attorney...However, they then connected me with a CPA. I texted that I asked for a Real Estate Lawyer. I texted that I did not sign up for a CPA. I texted I wanted my money back! The CPA texted asking me to give him a few minutes to review my offered information on the details of my inquiry. Their CPA then texted back with information readily available to anyone who can use Internet search. I texted that I wanted all credit charges reversed and any association with them canceled. I texted they had lost my trust. Their CPA then said he would OPT out...They then connected me with a Tax consultant...I was caught in a hassle with no end. I did document most of my chat with Screenprints. So I'm contesting.

Tip for consumers:
Sincerely, save yourself the stress.
