Modernize Home Services Reviews (%countItem)

We've been working with Modernize for about 6 months and we've worked with other lead generation companies before, but I do have to say Modernize really keeps the pace with leads coming in. I will also say our lead quality and sales literally doubled when Jenna H become our Account Manager. She is absolutely incredible at what she does and very flexible with different avenues of lead generation. Jenna literally took our leads issued to a new level. Very grateful and very glad to be a part of her team.

Hi Yimmi, thank you for providing your feedback and notifying us of this issue. We work hard to ensure that we are here when you need us for support. Please know that our customer support line is ***, and can be reached between 8AM-5PM CST. It does look like you spoke with your Account Manager just a few days ago to review the current status and experience of your program. We encourage you to continue to work closely with your Account Manager to increase conversion rates.

Hi Vincent! Thank you for highlighting how much you enjoy working with your Modernize Home Services, Account Manager. We agree that Jenna is a rockstar! We look forward to continue in helping grow you business for years to come!

We signed up with modernize with the plan of only purchasing a certain amount of leads Vs signing up for their three month program because we wanted to try it out. Sat down with the guy who works at the office, me and the other owner of the company all talked to a sales man of theirs and said we would only do the 90-100 leads to try it out. Now we are trying to cancel the program because they’ve sent the leads we’ve agreed upon but they keep sending more and just pulled money from my account. We have tried to call and no answer and when our secretary finally got ahold of some one he was given the run around and told we signed a three month contract. This is not what we agreed upon and they have been a horrible company to work with so far.

Modernize Home Services Response • Jul 12, 2020

Hi ***. We apologize for the negative experience you've described. After reviewing your records, we did receive your cancellation notice on 6/30 via phone call. Your account manager will be reaching out with next steps.

Jenna H is our Customer Success Manager at Modernize and she is INCREDIBLE to work with! Jenna is very professional, listens intently (which is rare in today's world) to our goals, works hard with us to accomplish those goals, gives honest feedback and advice, works through any concerns we may have to find a suitable solution, is always on time for scheduled meetings, is very responsive, and communicates very well. We have had an exceptional experience with Modernize because of her. Thank you, Jenna!

Modernize Home Services Response • May 15, 2020

Hi Matthew - Thanks for the great review! At Modernize, we know that communication and transparency is key to every successful partnership, so we love hearing that your experience continues to be exceptional!

Working with Jenna ay modernize has been great. very helpful when I need her and very responsive. Even through these hard times, trying to help our business out when she can.

Modernize Home Services Response • Apr 10, 2020

Hi Richard! These are definitely very uncertain times. We know that Jenna and the rest of our Modernize team is dedicated to working with you to continue seeing success.

I am a homeimprovment contractor who made a bad decision to use modernize for a window lead source. Not only were the leads absoulutly horriable, they would not stop sending me these bogus leads, and kept charging my credit card!!!! It looks like im going to have to hire an attorney. Do not do business with this company under any circumstances.

Modernize Home Services Response • Apr 10, 2020

Hi Mike. It's never great to hear of a negative experience. We do work to provide clear expectations that not all leads will convert into closed jobs. Meeting with your Account Manager is vital to the success of your account. Please reach out to your Modernize Account Manager if you wish to discuss further.

Modernize, but more specifically my account manager, Jenna, works with my business to help us get connected with the right leads. I am always able to reach out with any concerns or questions about my account and connect with someone who knows me and my business in order to better address my needs. The personal attention to my account is something I have not been able to find anywhere else.

Modernize Home Services Response • Apr 06, 2020

Hi Jenni! It's great to hear that your relationship with your Account Manager has been extremely valuable for your Modernize partnership. We look forward to continue building a strong partnership with you and your team!

I have been working with this company for about a year now, and the process has been nothing but fantastic! Jenna is my account rep and she is extremely helpful. Not all my campaigns have been perfect but overall I highly recommend.

Modernize Home Services Response • Apr 02, 2020

Hi Adam! Great to hear that you've had a fantastic first year with Modernize and Jenna. We're excited for you to keep growing this year!

Working with Jenna has been great! She is always there to make sure to answer and questions and make things run smooth. Modernize has brought us quality leads that has helped take our business to the next level. I would definitely recommended using them!

Modernize Home Services Response • Mar 31, 2020

Hi Zac, Thanks for letting us know how your relationship with Jenna and Modernize has helped accelerate your business. We're excited for the partnership to continue strengthening!

Zero star review - if I could.
Looked into getting windows replaced via their website. The next day, was hit up with calls, texts, emails for 8 hours. Spammed from Modernize and multiple contractors. Even from outside of my state.
Modernize called 4 times in a 10 minute window while my phone was on "do not disturb" for a Dr. appointment.
No message left, just repeated calls.
After the first 3 hours, I contacted Modernize to request removal from their database. They agreed to do so, but the contacts keep coming even the day after.
I have responded to their contractors that I will never do business with someone who uses this company to generate leads. I also went on to inform them that as a local contractor, this is NOT how you want to start a working relationship with a client.

I am contractor and have been using Modernize as my primary lead provider. I am extremely happy with the quality of solar leads. On average 90% leads turns into appointments and I am able to close 1 in 9.13 leads! Indeed impressive numbers!

Modernize Home Services Response • Mar 18, 2020

Hi there! We love hearing of the success that our Modernize Pros generate. We're excited for our partnership to continue to grow!

I am a medical professional: these mentally severely disabled is keep calling, no messages, just background noise, every 15 minutes! They do need mental disability certificate! reported to FTC for harassment.

Take this company to court if you have ever done business with this company. We received 89 Leads total. The conversion rate we received was 2.24% with 0(ZERO) sales for an overall ROI of ZERO. My main contact was *** and our company even had to go as far as putting a cease to desist with them and our bank accounts to get them to stop automatically withdrawing out of our account. Every charge that was made to our account ($4,094) was unauthorized. Talked to *** multiple times about not charging our card. The first time he sent the original agreement that was I guess digitally signed and told me to refer to the agreement. The second time he agreed to not charge any account for modernize and that anything they consider a past due balance could be handled in court or via collections. THE NEXT DAY WE HAD A CHARGE FOR $1,640 FROM OUR BANK ACCOUNT. *** then told us to talk to him and meet with him about this. We got on the phone call and he had to bring in what I believe was his supervisor to be a part of the conversation. Supervisor was impatient and upset that we didn’t have the numbers sitting in front of us when they called and said he was in a rush. They told us they record every call and would send us every call that was recorded with a person from our company and never sent it. Every time we would call the company they would say *** was in a meeting( that I would assume they were discussing on what their next name change would be). This company has changed their name an unbelievable amount of times for this exact reason. We will be seeing Modernize in court because they do not believe they should refund any sort of money for 87 Leads that we’re Bad or stolen information or out of territory. We only received 3 Total appointments and only 2 were confirmed and 1 of the two ended as a one leg. For a company that says they would like to provide customer service and do what’s right for a customer they seem to be full of it until they are able to change their name again. Not only a scam but i’m morally wrong to prey on small business companies over and over again.

Modernize Home Services Response • Mar 09, 2020

Prior to the agreement being sent, our Modernize sales team reviews that all customers will be billed weekly for the leads received. We have attempted to review the campaign with Mr., but he has already proceeded to chargeback for all the leads delivered to him. Unfortunately, due to chargebacks being filed, we are unable to work with Mr. at this time.

Customer Response • Mar 09, 2020

Complaint: ***

I am rejecting this response because:This makes zero sense. I started the chargebacks because there was no effort to provide customer service which they would tell me that they are going to do what is right and then never would do so. This is an excuse to keep money in their pockets. Read their google reviews and you will get all the information you need to see that I am not the first person to have this issue with a company that has already had to change their name. They played phone tag last friday and left me a voicemail and then would not call back after being on hold for an extended period. Not trying to be difficult but small business like us can not afford companies that are predatory and shady. By the sound of their response anybody can tell that they simply just do not want to provide customer service. There is no reason that you cannot accept a chargeback or initiates settlement you create a happy customer for providing false advertising and Zero ROI and opportunity.

People were denying signing up, telling us we had the wrong name and number, stating that they were looking for products other than vinyl, etc. We also received disconnected numbers, duplicate leads from other agencies, and information for people who did not own the home, but wanted an estimate on behalf of the decision making party ( which was not agreed). We utilized the portal tool offered to us to request a credit and encountered numerous problems. Leads that did not meet the stated criteria were being denied for credit and after requesting credits on 40% of the leads that were billed, the portal sent an alert to our office that we could no longer request credits until the number of requests fell below the 40% cap ( something that was never discussed and does not appear to be stated anywhere in the contact). We immediately contacted our salesperson at Modernize ( ***) but he was unavailable to speak with at the time, so we requested a return call. After 24 hours, we called again and I was offered ***'s voicemail. I left a message about my concerns and once again, asked for a return call. 48 laters, and without a response... I, again contacted their office. I spoke with a young lady who stated that she would have our account manager contact us ( I believe her name was ***), but she never called. Instead, a woman whose name is escaping me, called on ***'s behalf. During my conversation I expressed my dissatisfaction with A) the fact that the portal did not allow refund requests for the most common reasons one would request a credit ( i.e. not the homeowner, wrong name and number, repair work only, denial of interest, etc)... B) that requests for credit were being denied for leads that were disconnected numbers..... C) That a 40% cap was placed upon the number of credit requests possible, which was never discussed verbally and was nowhere to be found "in writing." ... and D) that I was seemingly ignored for a period of time long enough to allow 7 days to lapse ( thus making items ineligible for credit, as per the agreement). The young lady I spoke with explained that no live body reviewed these credit requests and that an automated system monitored certain algorithms to determine eligibility for credits. I was also told, at this time that the common reasons for requesting credits were removed from the portal due to a high volume of credit requests from their customers for reasons matching those descriptions. I made it clear, at that time that I wanted to speak with someone of authority and that if I could not, or that no resolution to these matters could be reached, we would be forced to file formal complaint. I was told that the regional sales manager ( ***) would call me no later than 2pm, that day. At almost exactly 2pm, I received the call from ***, as promised. We spoke "live" for roughly 25-30 minutes as I expressed these concerns and the end result of that conversation was that wrong names and numbers were NOT eligible for credit and that if I felt a lead was denied for credit unjustly, I needed to email / call the customer support team for each and ever occurrence. I was also told at this time that the disconnected numbers were "working numbers" at the time their 120-person call center reached out to the customers for other marketing programs and therefore, despite our inability to make use of these leads, Modernize was justified to bill us for said items. I explained to *** that I disagreed with his sentiment on the matter and also that "chasing" down credits for highly suspect lead information was both time consuming and a waste of resource for this company. I expressed that a large part of the reason that we agreed to purchase these leads was the level of described convenience in using the portal for these types of matters and that NOWHERE in live conversation OR in writing was it ever stated that there would be a 40% credit request cap and that the cap was holding up credit requests for completely fabricated information, disconnected numbers, non-home-owners, and products that we did not offer. *** went on to state that we had received 80 total leads and that we were nowhere near our limit of 40% with the requests we had already made ( roughly 20 at that time). During this very conversation, I had the online portal opened and noticed that while I was speaking with *** ( and expressing that action would be taken to resist his determination) the "Weekly spend limit" of roughly $935 we had agreed to, was increased to $2650 ( which was both puzzling and troubling) without authorization. It appeared as though the company was going to attempt to squeeze the account for as much money as it could before any dispute might arrive. After my conversation with *** ( which was a conversation with a professional salesman trained to rebuttal rather than resolve) I had more questions so I began to email the man, instead so to have record of the conversation. During this email communication ( which was lengthy and ongoing) I managed to receive copies of the audio recording with our original salesperson as a record of the description of the services promised and also I made sure to re-address many of the concerns I had verbally expressed the day before during our live conversation. *** was careful not to respond to many of the items that would illustrate wrong-doing on behalf of Modernize, but did ( when confronted) admit that he was incorrect about the number of leads Modernize had sold *** and that the 40% cap was an issue. I have saved these emails and also the audio recording as a record and will happily supply said items to help review this complaint. *** has made clear that he will be the one to handle any Revdex.com complaint and judging by the pompous and snide behavior that was received during our conversations, I expect that this complaint will be met with resistance, but still felt it was necessary to follow through with at least a Revdex.com complaint, and possibly future negative reviews on the Revdex.com / Google ( depending on the result of this dispute resolution) . With that being said... In summary, to this day... *** has received a total of 23 leads. I have utilized my 23 years of telemarketing experience to maximize efficiency in attempting to set these leads ( i.e. dialing from the office phone and avoiding leaving messages on the first 3 calls, using forced choice questions, tie downs, etc) and as far as I can tell these leads are not qualified, do not meet criteria, deny the interest in said product, or are completely fabricated. This office ( despite numerous and calculated attempts) managed to set only 1 appointment from these leads and that was for a non-home-owner whose parents owned the house that he lived in, and could not be present due to living out of state. Thus far, we have received 23 leads and have been denied credits on 12 of the 20 leads that were requested and are currently sitting on 4 more leads that need a credit request but are unable to be requested due to a 40% cap. If the 7 day period of time lapses, we will no longer be able to request a credit, despite these leads being unqualified and outside of the agreed criteria. *** would not like a refund on all monies paid and to be excused from any obligation of future purchase.

Modernize Home Services Response • Feb 14, 2020

We work with all of our customers to drive success with their lead programs.

The customer did sign a contract in which Modernize upheld the agreement to provide leads as described to the customer. Although we do allow customers to request returns for leads matching criteria specified in their contract, any requests with reasons not outlined in the agreement, will not be accepted for credit.

Unfortunately, we have rejected the customers request to breach the contract, as the customer does not wish to continue with the normal procedures for requesting credits/returns.

Although the customer has an active outstanding balance, we encourage our customers to continue working the leads they’ve been provided, to increase their early results.

Customer Response • Feb 17, 2020

Complaint: ***

I am rejecting this response because: While the regional manager may feel they are operating inside of the parameters of the contract that is described, this office does disagree. I have included my entire email conversation with *** as an illustration of my concerns, as well as his suggestion as to how best to address said concerns. I have also included the audio recordings of our conversation with *** ( our original salesperson) and the assurances made. I have also included a screen shot of the drop box menu for requesting credits. As you will see and hear, we were assured that the only competition we had for siding leads in our area was *** ( which was untrue) and that these leads would be qualified ( which was also untrue) and that if for some reason an unqualified lead made it through to us and we were wrongfully billed for said item, we would have the convenience of a digital request form ( to avoid having to call in and chase credits). But, when you observe the request menu, you will see that the common reasons for requesting a credit do not exist as options on the list. This is by design and only to ensure that the company can always argue that the wrong selection was made and therefore the reason no credit was issued. Furthermore, you will find nothing in writing or in conversation that so much as even hints at a 40% cap on credit requests, which we feel is a breach of contract in itself. Lastly, we have been denied credits for documents matching the described eligible reasons for credits ( disconnected numbers, incorrect products, contractors, etc...) ... combine all of these issues with the fact that our agreed weekly spend limit was increased from $935 to $2650, at the very moment that I complained and it is obvious that this company is looking to bill *** hard and fast for as much money as they could grab before any dispute has taken place. Thus far, we feel ( here at ***) that we have received 23 fabricated leads and have only been issued a credit on what appears to be 6 leads out of the 20 requested....and while it is proven that some of these do meet the criteria for credit, most were denied none the less and even more are still awaiting a credit request but are sadly on hold due to the 40% cap that was never discussed or put in to print. This agency is less than honest or ethical and we emphatically reject the business' response. I have more documents I can supply to support our side of this dispute but cannot upload anymore than I already have due to a limit of 4 attachments. If someone at the Revdex.com can reach out to my email, I will happily supply more records to support the claim.

Regards

Modernize Home Services Response • Feb 21, 2020

Unfortunately at this time we are denying the customers request for a refund, as the customer has an active outstanding balance for services provided per agreement.

Customer Response • Feb 24, 2020

Complaint: ***

I am rejecting this response because:As clearly indicated in the paperworks provided during the previous communication, nothing is as described.. eligible credits have even been denied... leads have been fabricated... potential prospects are reporting denial of signing up, denial of interest, and the 40% cap on credit requests ( which CANNOT be found in any contract or live recording of phone conversations provided) is preventing any further credit requests from taking place. The 40% cap, alone is reason enough to illustrate on breach of contact on behalf of Modernize. It was never discussed, indicated or put in to writing in any form or fashion. But, when you couple this problem with the FACT that even the tickets that should be eligible for credit were denied and that the customers we have been able to reach are reporting far more than 4 parties calling them the moment they signed up ( 4 being the limit of parties that would be buying these leads), denying interest / signing up, asking for repair work only, not owning the home, stating that I have the wrong name / number, or being a completely disconnected number, etc... I think there is a strong legal case to be made that this company is scamming its customers / committing fraud. This is well beyond a minor breach of contract and to leave this company at an A rating would be a black-eye for the Revdex.com. Clearly, the lack of any calculated, intelligent or informative response from Modernize should be indicative of the type of deceitful practice that we are dealing with, here.

Regards

As a customer, I used Modernize to get in touch with few companies and I am quite happy so far with the one I chose for my project. It was a great way (not the only one though) to find professionals in a short time, and I was able to get several quotes. It worked great, no complains at all.

Modernize Home Services Response • Feb 13, 2020

Hi Mario,
Thanks for sharing your experience with us. We hope you revisit Modernize for your future home improvement projects!

Like all other complaints I see, these people & the dozens of "businesses" they've pimped my number to are calling me a few dozen times in the last 15 hours since it began 7:00pm yesterday. I have NEVER signed up or given any information to them or anyone else online, yet they call me by the name "***" & lie about how they're giving me the quotes & offers for service "I requested". I tell all of them over & over that I'm on the Federal Do not Call Registry & have never asked for anything- I don't even own a home yet they claim I've asked to buy windows from them. As soon as I tell 1 person not to call me again, another person calls within seconds to minutes. A few have even hung up on me & one told me " *** you" before hanging up on me. They are all usually VoIP fake phone numbers, many the same area codes & exchanges with slightly different last 4 numbers. They'll call from different numbers until I pick up & many times when I say stop calling me I'll get more calls from the same "businesses" using those various VoIP numbers. I'll block a number ***-***-*** & get calls minutes later from ***-***-*** & ***-***-***. At what point will the Revdex.com identify this company as a fraudulent scam & help put an end to their harassment. There are dozens & dozens of complaints all saying the same thing about the unsolicited calls. Worse for me is that I've never even contacted them. Now I'll get a reply like everyone else that will say "We're sorry you didn't have a fantastic experience with us. We're trying to help you by...." STOP THESE CON ARTISTS

Hi ***,

We have placed the number and email you've provided on our DNC list. We receive over 150k homeowners requesting to connect with contractors each month. We do our best to vet out any homeowners that mis-type/ provide an invalid phone number.

For some reason, I am getting a barage of phone calls and text messages from different roofers for roofing estimate. I actually never requested it. I am being harassed now. I have called Modernize and they put me on the DNC list. They told me it would take 4-8 hours to take effect and now it is days later and I still get the calls. I called Modernize at three different numbers and told them my situation. I keep getting the run around from them to call other numbers. I even asked to talk to a manager and got the run around. They said I provided an inquiry but I didn't. Maybe someone else did and punched in the wrong name/number. I don't know to get it to stop. These guys don't know what they are doing and release your number and have no way to call all contractors and tell it to stop.

Modernize Home Services Response • Jan 27, 2020

Hi ***,

We apologize for the negative experience. We just recently went to add you to our DNC list and it seems you are already on it. We searched the number you provided in this Revdex.com request. Do you have another number we should be checking?

Thank you.

This company apparently got my number from some other person requesting estimates for windows, and has not stopped calling and texting me since. No matter how much I answer and tell them I am not who they think I am, and request they take me off my call list, I get called no more than 4-5 minutes later. Everytime I do not answer, they text me with a follow up. When I reply to the texts saying I am not who they think I am, I get a call 4-5 minutes later again. No matter how many numbers I block, ignore, or answer and request they take me off their call list, I still get more calls and texts. This is becoming harassment and driving me insane!

Modernize Home Services Response • Jan 17, 2020

Hi ***, We apologize for the negative experience. We will add you to our DNC list with the email and phone number you provided in this ticket. Thank you.

Modernize calls me multiple times a day. Many times I do not answer, however, I answered today and told them to not call me again. Not even 5 minutes later they called and I said I thought I told you not to call here again. Modernize contacted me no less than three times a day ranging from all hours of day and night. I want my number and email removed from their list immediately!

Modernize Home Services Response • Jan 13, 2020
