I would ask around and see if anyone can suggest another HVAC company. If not I would open up a phone book and start calling different places. See what their diagnostic service calls run. Might just be my location but I know a lot of reputable companies around here have very aggressive deals as they want all the work they can get.
Another idea to find a tech would be to look up local suppliers for the type unit you have. Give them a call and see if- 1. they do service calls and 2. If not they should have a service company they can suggest.

An 18 degree drop at the coil is more than usual, that's actually great.
Your tstat is most likely screwed up, and the condensing unit is shutting off when it shouldn't. Could be a lack of airflow or a freezestat, too.
Make sure all your vents are open and they all work. Women like to close vents.
If that doesn't get it, go to Lowe's and get a new tstat, or at least make sure the condensing unit is running when it's calling for cooling (I'm assuming there's not an airflow problem or a wonky freezestat that's holding the condenser out).
