UNACCEPTABLE Service and Treatment
I would like to share my frustration with the UNACCEPTABLE service and treatment I have received from this company I have expressed my dissatisfaction with the service I had been receiving I notified your branch that on a consistent basis I was being scheduled for service during the work week prior to 4:00pmI had asked the technician to please not schedule me before 4:00pm on a weekday, because I am rarely available, and if I am it puts a hardship on me at my place of businessThis was totally ignoredI am the customer, yet I have been treated as if I have to take whatever level of service you provide, and pay for itOrkin has not provided me the a standard of service that has met my satisfactionAs a matter of fact I have been charged for treatments that I have not receivedI am actually receiving bills for services that were not performedI will not pay for services that were not performed, and if these charges aren't removed from my ac

I call the Orkin customer service to set up a Bed Bug inspection for Friday September 29, I was told by the Customer Service repThat they would send some over to do an inspection and after the inspection they would tell me the extent of the bed bugs problem and what needs to be doneI was also told that the cost of the inspection was a little over $100, but if the did the Treatment that Inspection Fee would go towards the serviceI gave them my credit Card # to pay for the Inspection Fee
Everything was Good, until the Guy came to do the Inspection, which was for my sons Grandmothers houseHe started off by Demanding that they pay for the inspection before he did itThen without doing an inspection he started quoting prices for Services and Also demanded that they sign a contractShe refused and he left without doing the Inspection Now everyone is upset and angrySomething needs to done about this InspectorHe is a bad reflection on their companyi tried to call but

Multiple issues with the service Orkin provided and the lack of an acceptable resolution from Orkin
I started the service with Orkin in Dec of to treat an infestation of German cockroaches The first two monthly services were great and had no issues with the service provided The issues began when we started the bi-monthly services We had notated on our account to have a min call ahead for the technician so we would be in the home at the time of arrival There have been many missed interior treatments due to the tech failing to call ahead throughout our year of service In June of 2016, I called to complain about not only the failed calls and missed services but also with the dissatisfaction that the treatment was proving ineffective The only noticeable difference in the infestation after the first two months was an increase of roaches at one point where we had to call for an additional treatment between appointmentsThe GM assured me in June after another failed sche

we have been customers of Orkin for yearsThey have come out every months we have paid on time and continue to have rodent problems, squirrel problems , ant and rats
mice were hanging off the shelves in our pantry
we fired them and requested our money backwe instead received a bill
when we had a different company come out they found a HUGE hole in the foundation where every animal was entering our home
it has never been addressed
furthermore, the tech coming to the house was rude

I have contacted Edge/Orkin Pest control too many times to count since August Around this time is when Edge's billing system merged with OrkinI contacted them in August to pay a bill from a prior service in JulyThen in September we were still seeing activity so I contacted them for a "re-service" which is free according to the contractWhen I called in September I asked if there was a balance expecting that there shouldn't beThe lady on the phone told me noThe next time I contacted them to schedule another re-service because activity never ceasedThey told me I had a balanceI explained what the previous rep told me and she looked further in to itShe came back on the phone and said in the Orkin system it shows you owe and she was guessing due to the re-service but in the edge system my balance was clearI have been getting bill after billI have called and talked to the reps numerous times with no resolve so I have asked for a manager to contact me at least times

We had services provided by Orkin for a pest problem on 10/25/18, the service is guaranteed and the contract also states that if there is a pest issue in between scheduled visits they will come back and address the problem at no extra chargeThe service they provided did not work at all, if anything the pest problem has gotten worse since the house was sprayedWe gave the spray time to work after the orkin man was here but the issue has gotten worseWe have contacted orkin and the guy who sprayed our home several times and we were told by everyone we would get a call back, and absolutely no call back from anyoneThis guarantee is only good for days, but the service hasn't worked at all and no one will call back to address or resolve our issue even though it is in black in white on our contract

I hired Orkin because I was a previous customer with a great service experienceUnfortunately, my original tech was not available so I was assigned different techniciansAfter a couple of appointments, the first tech told me someone would show up on a SaturdayI waited the entire window only to be told I did not have an appointmentI was assigned another tech who did the exact same thing a couple of weeks laterI was not receiving the service times as agreed nor was my pest problem resolvedI requested a refund from customer service because I had the service for several weeks and it did not resolve the problem onceI was referred to the service manager whom I called and text messaged but he never returned my callsThis is the worst customer service I have received in a very long timeI don't understand why as my previous experience was not like this at allI am not unreasonable as I know it takes time to catch mice but I don't understand the lack of follow through and disrega

This complaint is specifically for the Harrisburg area Orkin Pest Control The matter is that back in September I signed up for a quarterly service plan to control the ants around our newly built home After they didn't show for the fist scheduled appointment, I had to call to find out the problem was that they had the wrong address in the system for our home So when that problem finally was corrected, we had our first service in September of Then I hadn't heard from anyone until January when I called for a second serviceThey apparently still had the wrong address and phone number on my account and showed up at the wrong house After that I still didn't get a call about scheduling the second service...I called a week later to find out that they STILL had the wrong phone number on the account The manager*** said that he was new to the branch to come fix some problems and he assured me that this time the problem was fixed After a few weeks I called AGAIN to find ou

To whom it may concern:
My name is *** ***, the owner of Cypress and Brushy Creek Montessori School I have a problem with Orkin pest control company They are keep sending invoices for the balance that I didn't pay for the service...I copied bank statement to them and send and call them and they said they are going to check and then send another invoice

Complaint in regards to services not properly rendered
A little over a year ago, I reached out to Trutech to trap for moles and voles in my yardI paid an initial $to start the trapping and would pay an additional $each month after thatMy initial startup was great as the tech was at my house 2-times a weekAfter about months however, I was assigned a new tech who only came to my house once every daysI expressed my concern to the tech both in person and over the phone that I wanted much more regular visits, as this is what I signed up for
The tech essentially would come to my house and set a trap for molesAfter a year of trapping the tech did not catch a single mole or vole on my propertyI literally paid $plus $a month and nothing was ever caughtWhat would happen however is that a mole would set off the trap, however would not get caught in the trapI had high activity in my yard therefore the trap would set off with 1-days after the

We had animals in our attic, and we asked TruTech to remove them The company charged us $for initial trapping, and came out times to set traps I lost contact with the technician, and I asked if they would be coming out to fix the problem They informed me that they wouldn't be finishing the job unless we signed up for a year contract at $for a year I asked them for an estimate to fix the points of entry and asked for an itemized quote for the needed the repairs They said they were professionals, and they are not going to give me the quote I requested They sent me a quote for $and when I asked when they would fix the holes, and they told me that they weren't going to repair the holes, unless we signed up for a contract I reached out to the supervisor, and he said they would not be doing any more free work for us, because we declined the contract We still have animals in our attic, and they caught mice and in order to kill them all we would need th

I was a customer of Orkin in 2013/ Each time the serviceman would come to my home, I had to sign a paper agreeing to the service and I wrote him a check on the spot I just received a bill in the mail from March of for $ I called today and spoke with *** who was extremely rude and unprofessional She claimed to have taken over accounts payable in August, which was months agoShe sent me the contact logs as well as all work orders, none of which contain my physical signature All work orders however, show payment received on the date of service There is no proof that the technician was at my home that day (just their work order claiming he was here at my home)

According to the website, if you are not satisfied with the service within the day period of initial treatment, they offer a money back guarentee I paid the $fee to treat for wasps and mice which I am allergic to (wasp stings) The tech came out and sprayed the house with a chemical solution that was supposed to last for a long period of time (he claimed months minimum) The next day I am stung with a wasp in the same area he had sprayed The solution used did nothing, so I had the tech come back out to retreat He doused the house exterior with more spray A few days go by, and nothing improves, we still have massive amounts of wasps near the entry ways, stinging as you enter or leave the house This service was insufficient and as a result I need to hire a different company to take care of this problem I contacted the local office today to ask for a refund, but they are claiming I now need to have a recurring plan in order to qualify If you look at the company we
