I am requesting cancellation of my pest control contract with EcoShield Pest Solutions. Despite multiple attempts, they are demanding a cancellation fee that was not clearly disclosed at the time of signing. Their contract refers to an Annual Commitment Discount but does not clearly authorize this fee. I believe this is deceptive and potentially a violation of consumer protection laws. Im seeking cancellation without penalty and written confirmation that no charges will be assessed.Business Response

BEWARE CANCELLATION FEES - DO NOT CONTRACT WITH THIS COMPANY - IF YOU DO, MAKE SURE YOU READ THE FINE PRINT OF THE AGREEMENT - DO NOT JUST LISTEN TO WHAT THE SALESMAN HAS TO SAY The day after I had major oral surgery, a representative of Eco Shield came to my door and told me all these horror stories about the poisonous insects around my house that could harm my children. Of course, being in recovery and taking heavy pain medication, I was more open than I usually would be to buying this young man's services. HOWEVER, he failed to inform me that there was a $250 cancellation fee if I decided I did not want the services before the 2 year contract was up. After recovering fully from my surgery, I decided it was a mistake to contract with them (I just didn't have the budget for it) and when I called today I was informed of the $250 cancellation fee. There seems to be no way out of paying it, so of course I paid it, but am not happy about having to wait until I decided to cancel to learn about the fee.Business Response

Hi *******,
Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We understand how frustrating this experience must have felt, especially during a time of recovery. We want to clarify that our sign-up process includes multiple safeguards to ensure transparency and informed consent. Our records confirm that the customer completed the full three-step enrollment process: they reviewed the agreement in person with a representative, received and signed an electronic copy of the agreement, and replied 1 via text message to verify their understanding and consent. The agreement also included a clear disclosure of the early termination fee, and the customer acknowledged this at the time of signing.
Additionally, the customer was provided with a copy of the agreement and had the standard three-day right to cancel, as required by law. We understand that circumstances can change, and while we regret that the service was ultimately not a fit, the cancellation fee was applied in accordance with the signed agreement. We appreciate the opportunity to clarify.Initial Complaint

This company tricked me into using them for pest control services in a risk-free manner. I used them for several months, but when I sold my house I decided to cancel my services. This is where the trouble began. They were saying that I was in a contact agreement and requested $200 for a cancellation fee to pay back discounts I received on my services. I never agreed to any contract. When I requested to see a signed contract, they refused. They are now saying that they are sending me to collections.Business Response

Hi ******,
Thank you for sharing your feedback and allowing us the opportunity to respond.
We understand your concerns and sincerely regret any frustration this experience may have caused. At EcoShield, we aim to provide full transparency throughout the sign-up process. To ensure this, we follow a three-step verification procedure:
Verbal Explanation Our representatives discuss the service agreement in detail during enrollment.
Document Delivery On the same day the agreement is signed, a copy is sent to the customer for review, including a three-day right-to-cancel period.
Welcome Text Message We send a confirmation text summarizing the key points of the service plan, including the contract type, the follow-up egg-cycle service, and details regarding the Annual Commitment Discount Program (****), which notes that early cancellation may result in a charge to recoup discounts applied to the initial service.
These steps are in place to ensure clarity and transparency regarding the terms of service.
After reviewing your account, we found that a balance was assessed under the **** due to cancellation before the end of the agreement. However, as a gesture of goodwill, weve waived this remaining balance. Your account is now closed with no amount due, and no further action will be taken.
We respect your decision to discontinue service and wish you the very best moving forward. Should your pest control needs change in the future, we would be happy to assist again.
Sincerely,Initial Complaint

I live in a no soliciting neighborhood and I have a sign on my front also. They have knocked loudly and then ring the doorbell multiple times 3 times in the last 3 days. I found the person that had spoken to my wife and told him about the neighborhood sign and my sign. He gave me a bs excuse. My wife walked our dog an hour later and he was still knocking on doors. He was lucky I didn't punch his lights out.Business Response

On march 31st. ecoshield did an exclusion service which included replacing the black strip at the bottom of my garage door. after they completed the service, the garage door now allows water in when closed and they screwed metal straps into the door which are already coming loose.

In May 2024, I paid EcoShield Pest Solutions approximately $3,900, with an additional $300 annual renewal, for exclusion treatment to prevent pigeons from nesting under my solar panels. The services included sealing roof openings, applying bird spikes, and pigeon caulking, with a 12-month guarantee as outlined in our service agreement.The agreement clearly states that if any part of the exclusion treatment fails due to defective workmanship, EcoShield will inspect the issue and, if necessary, repair or replace the failed components at no cost to the customer.However, over the past several weeks, I have made multiple attempts to contact the company to address serious concerns with the service:The bird spikes installed are of poor quality, are falling off, and have even ripped shingles off our roof. **************** agents claim to be unaware that the company handles bird or wildlife-related services. I have repeatedly requested to speak with a manager at the ********* office, but have only been told that someone would get back to me which has never happened.EcoShield previously came out in response to similar concerns, but they failed to resolve the problem. Independent roofing professionals have since inspected the damage and warned that the adhesive used may further ruin the roof, and that removing the spikes could cause additional shingle loss.This service has been a complete failure and has caused damage to my property. I am seeking the following resolution:A full refund of $4,200 for the failed and damaging ************ and professional removal of all bird spikes from the roof without further ************* of roof shingles already torn off due to the installation.Immediate contact from a manager at the ********* location to resolve this matter directly.If this issue is not resolved promptly, I am prepared to pursue further legal action, including filing in small claims court.Business Response

This company is a total scam--Buyer Beware! Paid for ONE year of service and company continued to bill me and send "technicians" after the one year period. Refused to admit that service was cancelled after a year, spent HOURS on the phone with multiple **** trying to clear this up and got nowhere. Now trying to get a $150 cancellation fee when all I wanted is written confirmation that one year contract is complete and I not longer have to deal with them. Most correspondence is AI generated and unintelligible, they never respond to texts, and call center is NO HELP. You'd be better off with a handyman and a trip to ********** for bug spray--total rip offBusiness Response

Hi ******,
Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention, and we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused. We understand your concerns regarding the service agreement, and wed like to take the opportunity to clarify the details for you.
You are currently under a 12-month contract, which includes quarterly services. This contract requires a total of five billable services to be completed. Heres the schedule for your services:

4th service: 1/27/25
Final service: 4/15/25 (canceled)
You have the option to cancel the service at any time. However, if you decide to cancel before completing all five services, you would be responsible for paying the $150 annual commitment discount that was applied to your initial service.

In 12/24 I called EcoSheild to update my CC info. They told me they had updated with my new info. On 2/4, my scheduled service was performed and should have been billed to the new card. I received a call stating my card was declined. I gave the caller my updated card information figuring it was a mistake. I was told that my transaction was complete and all was fixed. Since then, I am receiving MULTIPLE collection calls every day threatening lawsuits. One one of the calls, I AGAIN updated my credit card information and was told it was processed.On 3/7, I called EcoShield to try a remedy this. Because I had already spent well over an hour dealing with this issue, I asked to speak with a manager. 45 minutes later, they tell me there are no managers available but one would call me back that day. On 3/10 I received a voicemail from ****** stating to call back and ask for her and she would answer. On March 11th, I called back and asked for ******. After 30 min. on the phone, she came back and said that ****** was not there but she could transfer me to another manager. I was transferred to *****. ***** proceeded to tell me she was not authorized to do anything to fix it. I asked her why a manager was not authorized and she then admitted she is not a manager but does work in the solutions dept.I then insisted on speaking with an actual manager or supervisor. I was transferred to *****.I stated I wanted my account credited in the amount of the balance owed and to cancel my account. He responded what do you mean?. I explained and he then told me that he was not authorized to do that. I asked who was authorized and was told no one. He told me that I could ****** the owners name but they have no phone access.***** said he could give me a credit on my acct for the inconvenience. I was placed on hold and he came back offering $25.00. ***** continued to be rude and snarky, I saidI wanted my account cancelled immediately. He laughed and said he would cancel it.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because: You are not offering any resolution to this matter. I missed 3 hours of work due to this matter and there was no fault of my own. I provided my new payment information three times and not one EcoShield employee was able to process it correctly. I was told that the payment was processed multiple times when it was not.I should not have to pay (and lose there hours of wages) due to your poor customer service and unprofessionalism.
