Beware- fake cheap call out fee

CMK Electrical & Data advertised as a local electrician on google with a 44$ call out! The operator I called knew nothing of electrical work. The electrician arrived and even before looking at anything charged me $308 to any work that they would need to do. I asked if this cost covered repair costs. He said yes. So I paid. Then he looked at the exhaust fan and said it’s dead. He said it would cost over $750 to fix. I had to say no because I would never call them if they warned me about their high costs. I refused to work with him and took the $300 hit! BEWARE!

Approximate cost: $308

CMK was unable to complete the requested job - no ideas about how to dim LEDs and personally had to google how to do it. Then asked my wife if we wanted 2 gang plates replacing as they looked a little old but charged more than $750 for this. When I complained was told it was reasonable.

Approximate cost: $550

Do not use [removed name] . Required large cash deposit (32% of the price of the job) before starting, charged for an upgrade which was unsolicited and was not legally needed for compliance of my job. Had to sign on an ipad before receiving the 8 page (!) contract, and when I reneged for good reason refused to refund my deposit. On top of the $1,150 deposit he held, he then sent an invoice for an extra $350 for the "work" involved in a $20.70 on-line application to Ausgrid. Have submitted details to Fair Trading.

A total rip off. A $44 call out fee for electricians to show up and say it’s going to cost $308 just to figure out why one power point isn’t working. This doesn’t include the cost for fixing it.
What they don’t disclose is that unlike most other trades they won’t invoice. So, essentially you end up with two large men in your home demanding immediate payment for doing absolutely nothing.

Very disappointing experience with this company. CMK ELECTRICAL & DATA responded through an add on ONE FLARE .we were quoted a $44.00 call out fee to get a quote for. 1 installation of a tv wall bracket which we supplied, 2 mount our tv to the wall bracket , 3 introduce proper cable management for the concealment of cables within the wall cavity 4 relocation of a coaxial cable and suitable socket 5 supply and install 2x double power points . Both electricians were friendly and right on time . We were quoted $1000.00 which seemed expensive but we agreed to the quote because both technicians were there and ready to go.Hours later after the job was completed we inspected the required work and found a few things that we were unhappy about .1 a small hole was drilled through a nogging in the internal wall which the HDMI cord was placed through,problem is no other additional cords can be placed through this hole and if we want to replace the existing HDMI cable it would be next to impossible unless we remove the gyprock or call a professional just to replace the HDMI cord. 2. A hole was drilled through the recessed PowerPoint socket with the coaxial wedged through it instead of using a separate wall plate socket .I called the phone number on the invoice at 9pm that night to leave a message for someone to call me ,I called at this time because CMK ELECTRICAL & DATA advertise a 24/7 service .the next day I spoke to a person in charge and was spoken to rudely because of my evening phone call and was quoted another call out fee for someone to look at my concerns which I declined..we were expecting a more professional service from CMK ELECTRICAL AND DATA due to a $1000.00 we just paid .I would definitely recommend this company if you want to be overcharged and spoken to rudely. POTENTIAL CUSTOMERS BE AWARE. Job number 5972. (26/10/2021)

Very professional business with great pre and post visit communication. Cris provided a value for money quote before the work commenced and completed the job efficiently and to a high standard. Cris also provided some ideas to future proof our TV system and whilst we didn’t complete this wok today, we will definitely re-hire in future if we decide to go ahead with it. Thanks CMK. We will recommend you to anyone looking for someone to help with their electrical problems.

Approximate cost: $250

Jaye on reception was absolutely lovely and professional organising so promptly a suitable time for my antenna repairs due to work commitments.Bo the electrician was not only on time but fixed the problem in no time at all and even assisted me in organising my payment.His assistance was first rate and explained thoroughly what and why the work that had to be carried out.I would recommend them to anyone in the same situation.

Worst service ever so disappointed and feel totally ripped off. Went to a large company thinking they would be reputable found not the case for us. Talked into the large booster box for reception issues. 2 months and 5 days later same problem. When I called told it was a temporary fix and we were told. Why would we pay $534 for a temporary fix. We went to them to have the issue fixed.repeatitly asked if we would be better with a new Ariel a and told no this big booster would fix issue. Now they tell me need new Ariel and cable.would not recommend except to stay clear.totally disappointed and feel ripped off

A terrible experience. Failed to give an accurate quote, charged for 1.5 hours of call-out time for a prior address and we were not advised of that either. Spent 20 minutes there but charged $280. Said that the total cost would be around $500 with a deduction for the initial charge, then wanted to charge closer to $680. Screamed at to me on the phone and did not try to resolve the matter appropriately or politely instead was defensive and rude. It would certainly have been cheaper to buy a new oven instead. Perhaps the service has gotten worse during COVID-19 due to costs of living but this is still not fair or appropriate.

Approximate cost: $680

I used this company to install a new power point and remove an old one they charged over $1000 which I feel is expensive, but more importantly this work affected all power points in my house and they refused to accept that the work they performed caused the problem. Got another electrician to fix the problem he said they did not do a good job. I took this to Fair Trading and it’s my word against theirs, I now need to take it further. I would not use this company.

Cris was friendly and efficient as well as professional. He was very thorough (and tidy) with the job and didn't leave until everything was tested and working perfectly. Would not hesitate to use him again or recommend to others.

CMK overcharged for the installation of a kitchen rangehood. I asked for a like for like one, he showed me the one he had ordered but installed an incorrect unit with no ventilation. He charged 890$ for an hours work installing an 85$ unit (was meant to install the $300 one that was originally quoted) and then placed blame on me. Left the apartment a mess and was not professional. CMK is terrible! DO NOT RECOMMEND

Approximate cost: $890

I am the same, Cris Karzon come to fix my apartment electricity. For investigation test he charge $380, than $455 plus get for repairs of hot water fuse. All together more than $900.
I feel overcharged so I called other electrician to have a look at my invoice. They said I been over charged a lot. I am going take this to NCAT, the department of fair trading. You should do the same.

anna-b949 11 Jul 2020

Sounds like our experience. What did NCAT say?

Hi Jared
Sorry you had this Expereince our records show our technician installed the correct unit for you if this is not the case please provide the quote details that specified the unit you were advised and we will assess and if there was an incorrect order we shall rectify free of charge please call us on 1800 772 758.

the service was next day after our initial call, which was what we needed. Chris explained what he would do and gave us a quote which was itemised. We had additional work done to relace our old ceramic meter points. This was recommended but was no pushed. Chris did the work at once, then cleaned up. All great sutomer service. Plus he explained when power would be off and when it would come back, very helpful as we were using our computer.

Thank you for taking the time to provide us with your feeback. glad to hear you are happy with our services
