I called multiple times to have my regular technician assigned to various services I pay for. I was left a vmail from a nameless central office scheduler that my normal technician was no longer servicing my home. That was a lie and is documented in the system. There should be accountability for liars and when I call, customer service should select my technician so I receive the automated email with name date and time of service and they dont. **************** only sends emails to the scheduler who does not reply. I do not want to keep calling multiple times. I should be able to request my appt online but that is not an option. I am very disappointed with the central office and inability to schedule when I call.

Ehrlich made an appointment with me for an annual terminate inspection. The first time they came, the service provider sat in his truck in front of my home. Didn't call, didn't ring door ****, didn't do inspection (I know this because I have cameras around the house). I reported this to company and they made an appt for another person to come and do an inspection the following week. That person never showed. Same thing happened two others times. NO shows. Tried to reach regional manager, left several messages. I want to be compensated for the time I took off from work to wait for them on all occassions. Terrible ***************** You cannot reach a live person who is in an supervisory position OR reach anyone in the area.Business response

I set up an appointment for the exterminator to come to my house and spray for ants. The date that was set up is August 25, 2023 and the time was 4:00 pm to 6:00 pm. On August 25 the exterminator showed up at my house at 12:16 pm . This was not the time I agreed to and I am very upset that he did not come during the time I expected. I am out of the state for an extended length of time and I paid someone $25 to go to my house to be there for the exterminator. When I looked at my ring camera, I noticed he was early. I called in to tell you folks that I needed him to go to my house at the correct time. She wanted to reschedule and I was not going to reschedule to pay another $25 for your negligence. My normal exterminator knows I spend a lot of time out of the state and I told him I would be gone for an extended period of time. She said that she would send him a note and have him call me. I am still waiting on that call. When I called back the next day, I voiced my concern and asked them to have a manager or supervisor to call me so I can address my complaint with them. As of August 27, I am still waiting on a call. I have been a customer for several years and have never had a problem. However, when you take my money each month and I cannot depend on your company to do what you said you were going to do, I have a problem with that. Perhaps it is time to discontinue service and get a new exterminator that will show up at the time that was agreed upon. I asked someone to go to the store and get some spray and get rid of the ants that were marching on my counter . Again you are getting your money faithfully.Business response

I paid Ehrlich Pest control company $ ****** on 4/18/2023 with the clear commitment from the company that they will provide repeat service if I continue to have the problem with ANTS inside my house. They scheduled the repeat service on 7/21/23 between 12 to 6:30 pm but no one showed up. I called on 7/22/23 and was promised a call back on 7/24/23 but no body called. I called again on 7/24/23 and again no resolution. At this point I would like to get my refund of $ ****** and will hire someone locally to do the service.Business response

We contacted ****************** regarding his service. Unfortunately he was mistaken that his service is scheduled for 7/27 not 7/21. See notes from account below. We tried unsuccessfully to explain this but ****************** claims to be right. In any case, we apologized for the mix up and we offered to provide a non chargeable service on 7/26 or 7/27 but he denied. The service he had performed in April provides a 30 day guarantee and does not guarantee the elimination of ants it is for control. We were providing service at no charge so there is no refund to provide. If he would like to reconsider and call us for service before August 4th then we will set him up for service. Thank you.Customer response

My appointment was for 7/21/23 from 12 to 6;30 pm and I waited all day during that time and no one showed up.The business failed to provide the service on the scheduled date and time and failed to respond to my repeated calls. they are not truthful about the date. At this point, if they reschedule the service, there is no guarantee, that they will show up. I can no longer trust them. So it is best for everybody if they issue the Refund and I can then have somebody else to perform the service. If they issue the Refund, I don't intend to pursue it further.

There is no refund available for a service that was not charged. There is one date in question that we disagree there was a scheduled service but we are willing to retreat at no charge. The service scheduled on the 27th (or customer thinks was 21st ) was courtesy, one misunderstanding of a schedule date does not validate a complete refund and the offer to retreat outside the guarantee time frame is more than fair.Initial Complaint

CAUTION!!!! If they have your credit card information, they will continue to take money out of your account, even if you don't have any service with them!!!! Canceled the first service because they were WAY overpriced compared to other pest control outfits, and a month later they take out MAINTENANCE FEES for service I never had! They have never been to my home!! THEIVES as far as I am concerned!! Contacted them 3 times and no one will contact me to get it resolved. And they saw I never had any service with them, and yet still take money from my account. If you have ever had dealings with them in the past, MAKE SURE THEY ARE NOT STILL TAKING MONEY FROM YOU !!!!Business response

The business promised to send a technician out to spray a wasp nest and remove it. The technician sprayed the nest then changed his mind about removing it, claiming the wasps would build another nest close by. He then said I can remove it myself but if I felt uncomfortable, call them and they would send someone out. I called but they claim no appointments are available. They said they would call me back but I have yet to call me back, including the customer service supervisor. In the meantime, my ****** where the wasp nest is has gotten out of control and the weeds around the front of my house are also getting out of control.This is on top of the fact that they sending a technician to a house 104 miles away on 7/20/22 and I had to call and correct them.Business response
