Shoutout to the repair guy who told me to skip the $130 "tune up"

My dryer quit heating after 5 weeks and the tech who came out said the $130 tune up plan was a waste and it was just a clogged vent hose. He charged me $40 for the visit and told me to clean the hose every 6 months instead. Anybody else get talked out of a service plan like that?

I used to be the guy who bought the plan every time, figured it was just part of owning stuff. Then my fridge died two months into a plan and they still wanted $200 on top for the part. That was the end of it for me. What that tech did is rare, most of them push the plan because they get a cut. The fact he told you the truth and only took $40 says more than any warranty ever will. Clean that hose twice a year and you'll probably never see him again. Wish more of them worked like that.
