User reviews

Butchered by user experience

I don’t know what they did to this once useful app, but it’s disgraceful. Extremely clumsy, buggy and overall simply maddening to use. This is an overdeveloped and over-algorithmic nightmare.

Scam

They charged me for everything—supposedly costs I was supposed to cover for a client. First, it was $28 one morning; I thought, "Fine, I'll activate the account." Then came a $38 charge, supposedly for some client—even though I hadn't submitted a bid for that service or rejected it. Then I decided to adjust the sliders for my services, and they IMMEDIATELY deducted another $37 from my card. My bank is looking into it now. It was a terrible, nerve-wracking experience. The support staff are awful; it took three tries before one young woman actually helped me! The others just hung up because they were incompetent. And even then, my problem wasn't solved. It’s nothing but a scam.

E&P Seal Coating

$1900 for worst seal job ever. They won’t give us a repair date even though they agreed they “were not pleased” with the job they performed and would come out to repair it. No dates given to us for repair even though I have written to them several times over the last week. They insisted on cash payment and now we know why.
