If this company is saying they will handle all the cob webs outside my home that are still thereThey need to come out and do that before they get their payment and cancellation feeMy house looks absolutely the same it did before they showed upI don't expect them to kill all bugs outside that's ridiculousI do expect a thorough job to be done on my house before I pay them anything. Complaint: ***I am rejecting this response because:Sincerely,*** ***
We made several attempt to address the customers concerns (by going back out to do a free re-treatment) in the very way she is now requesting, but we were turned down every time At this point, we feel it would be it would be disagreeable to put one of our technicians in a potentially hostile environment
However, we feel that if the customer paid the for the initial service charge and half of the cancelation fee that it would be an acceptable way to resolve our differences
I spoke with Cary today and resolved his concerns, we deleted the cancellation fee, and he is happy! Let me know if there's anything else I need to do!*** ***Barrier Pest Control

That was nice of Barriar However I did send them the $38.50 since nothing came for so long. Anyway, thanks Revdex.com for being the go between for me
We are interested in addressing this complaint, but we won't do it in a public way on this forum. We have contacted [redacted] by the phone number provided and would love to speak with him. My name is Kirk, my phone number is 249-9666, and I'm the owner. Thanks!
1. The customer states that we didn't do a thorough job because she still has bug issues. According to our attached agreement, if "a bug problem arises on or inside your house between services we will cheerfully and promptly come and take care of your problem free of charge-as many times...
as necessary." On the phone we offered to do just that, but the customer declined.
2. The customer states that the bug issues were on the outside of her house. She states: "I still have the same amount of spiders insects outside my home." Our guarantee only covers ON OR INSIDE the house. The contract clearly states in red ink that "We cannot control bugs in the great outdoors, we guarantee pests on or inside your home." Because of the location of the bug issues, and the clearly stated policy about the guarantee on the contract, that we are not responsible to treat bugs in the great outdoors. However, to appease the customer, we offered to perform a free re-treatment, which she declined.
3. Because the customer signed the contract, and failed to avail herself of the contractual means to find resolution (free re-treatments) to her problems, the only recourse is to cancel the contract, and pay the $50 early cancelation fee, which is also clearly stated above the signature on the attached contract.
We weren't aware that the amount received wasn't reported to the collection agency, when we became aware, we reported it the same day, the 6th of January 2016.Barrier Pest Control

Hello, I am writing this in response to a complaint that we received last week concerning [redacted] at [redacted] in Wilder. Is my understanding that she is disputing the charges because of three reasons: 1. That "this business did not notify me that I was on their program." and.... 2....
That "I never consented to that service." and.... 3. "....and never saw them at my house." I will endeavor to quickly respond to these items. 1. Our company was contacted in July 2013 to do pest control services at this address. We contracted to do quarterly pest control service, that is, to do a pest maintenance service every three months. We have continued to do quarterly service at this address from July 8, 2013, until March 7th, 2016, when [redacted] called to cancel (for a total of 10 services, invoices can be provided upon request). They have been great customers, paying promptly after every service rendered, including their most recent payment received on 9/22/15 for services rendered on 9/15/15. Frankly, I don't understand the complaint that they were unaware that we were providing services for them regularly. I argue that they were well aware of the services we were doing, as evidenced by their prompt payments and long service history. 2. This is just a reiteration of the above response, with one additional caveat. When each regular service treatment comes due for service, we ALWAYS call, text, and email the customer at least one day before their scheduled treatment to let them know we are coming. We most certainly did in this case as well, the voice call service notification was received at 9:18AM on 1/27/16, and the text and email notifications were sent at 9:16AM the same day. During our March 7th conversation, [redacted] confirmed the phone number on the account as being correct. 3. Though I can't speak to the complaint that our technician wasn't seen at the house, I know he performed the service. We are obliged by the state of Idaho to make comprehensive records of all our chemical applications, and our technician did in this circumstance (records available, upon request). He completed the service at 11:18 AM on 1/29/16, and made his chemical records that indicate he performed a standard quarterly service. In spite of the fact that I don't feel a discount should be awarded in this case, I would be willing to settle for half of the amount owed, or $38.5, to show my appreciation for previous patronage, and to give evidence of my own personal feeling of good will to [redacted] and [redacted]. If you have any questions, please call me directly on my cell phone at (208) 249-9666. Regards, Kirk D[redacted] Owner Barrier Pest Control (208) 249-9666
Complaint: [redacted]I am rejecting this response because: My husband died March 14 2015. There were many things to contend with in his passing. Bills come, I pay them. My husband, [redacted], left without me knowing his passwords, so...I never got Barriers' emails, his phone was given to a grandson, it was the phone that did texting, I do not text,so never got their texts, and the phone's answering machine gives me many problems..(I'm 87 and try my best) I've lost some messages. So from the last bill I paid in Sept. 2015, I figured we had Barrier no longer. I got another pest control, totally unaware that Barrier goes and assumes they have my business without any personal verbal "go ahead" from me since all was going to my deceased husband's things. I did always like the young man that they sent out, but I found a business that didn't cost me as much. I appreciate the deduction, and I would pay that to them, but, I do see that they run on assumptions...when they have a lapse of communications drop from one year to the next they think it's alright to go ahead with another year. I really think they should have spoken to me... the new head of the house. at least to see if all was okay, instead of just beginning up the new year without a response to their emails, to their text, or their phone message. (My computer was down from the 15th of March til now. My son-in-laws fixed it for me today. So the delay.) Hope it gets to you in time.Sincerely,[redacted]
