Financing

Through our ADL Services Review we found that the Wollongong-based air conditioning installation company does not offer finance options to its customers. ADL Services require a 30% deposit of the total cost of the installation upfront from the customer if they wish to proceed with an air conditioning installation. The 30 % deposit secures the installation, and the customer pays the remaining 70% upon the completion of the project.

Customer calls are answered by a senior staff member as their first port of call, who is eager to assist customers and can answer all of their questions and elaborate on further queries, probe for further clarification where required, and provide useful information to help the customers understand which system would best suit their needs.

Our ADL Services Review team also rated the response times experienced by customers for how long it takes to receive the first response in answer to an online enquiry and for the time taken for the customer to receive a response to a quote request. ADL services were initially slow to respond to our team’s online request for a quote, however this was due to technical difficulties.

However, once the technical difficulty was discovered, ADL Services were very quick to rectify the issue, quickly finding the online request in their systems and were able to respond with a personalised quote within a matter of hours. We were very impressed with their rectification of the issue and their willingness to respond quickly once we had followed up with their sales team. Our recommendation would be for customers to follow up with the sales team by phone if online requests are not responded to within a couple of business days.

The graph below depicts our findings for ADL Services, rating them with a 1 out of 5 for both response time to quotes and response time to initial requests, meaning they acknowledged receipt of our request (once our request was properly located) and responded with a personalised quote within 6 hours.
