  I contacted Arrow Pest Control by telephone in April, 2023. The woman who spoke with me via telephone said I needed treatment for German roaches based on my description. The technician came to my home and treated the house on approximately April 13. I spoke to a friend who had also recently hired Arrow, and learned that her house was treated far more completely than mine was( inside, outside, targeted areas, etc. )I was displeased and asked for a follow up visit to discuss my experience. Since then, I have received approximately five telephone calls and five invoices from Arrow for $75. Each time I speak with them, I am told that I should not have been charged, and that they will take care of the error. I just received a bill for the service today: August 24. Please help me before this is turned over to a collection agency.

  Reviewed account and discovered that the customer called in for a callback which was created as a charged service instead. Upon discovering I had the balance adjusted off and spoke to the customer letting her know of our error and that the problem was resolved and no payment is due.

  12/8/2021 - transaction of $4213. In person, I was told by the representative that this would cover sealing all of the places mice or other wildlife could enter my home, along with setting traps in the attack, doing regular checking of the traps, and provided a lifetime warranty if anything ever re-entered the home. After a year of service, I got a phone call from the company wanting me to pay a renewal fee to continue to monitor the traps and provide protection of the home. I was told on the phone that the contract states that there is an annual renewal fee of $185/year, and there was no lifetime warranty. The business was very good at getting a credit card set up for me so that I could get the needed service, however they were not honest and I feel that I was tricked regarding the warranty. Also, when doing recent repairs to my home, I was informed by workers that you could see daylight coming into the attic so it was not sealed correctly. The mesh is warped or not covering entire places of entry. The snakes and rats that I was trying to get out of my home are now back in the attic and Im out of $4,000 and having to pay someone else to come do the work all over again.

  We have called the customer a couple times, left messages but have not received a return call back. We completed a full exclusion on their home that comes with a 1 year warranty stated on the signed service agreement. After one year there is an option to renew the service for a small fee that covers an inspection. We are more than happy to follow up with the customer at the property to make sure our services were completed as described on the agreement, if given the opportunity.

  We've used Arrow for full home coverage for 4 years now. They have constantly double charged us for services. We prepay for the year for full coverage but every time the exterminator tech comes for any of the covered services, they charge our card for that single service visit, which is of course supposed to be covered in the full coverage we paid for at the beginning of the year. My wife and I have spent the better part of last year on the phone or waiting for a callback from the billing services at Arrow. We finally resolved the issue from last billing cycle, so we renewed our service for this year. However, as soon as they the first tech came to spray indoors, they charged our card again! Which is clearly covered in our prepaid coverage. This is just not acceptable, charging twice for the same service is FRAUD. We are stuck now this year because we already signed up for the coverage, so the nightmare will continue. But we will obviously not be continuing our relationship with Arrow after that.

  After a review of the billing history of the account we did mistakenly charge the customers approved card on file on 7/17/23 the charge was reversed on 7/25/23 and no other duplicate charges exist on our side of the billing history. I have reached out to the customer and left a voicemail at this time to review the account with them.

  We received a bill for a service that we did not ask for. Account number: ******* **** showed up first week of July 2023 for service they claim they performed on 5/24/23. Prior to that date, we had voicemails asking us when we wanted service. We did not respond because we did not know a good time. We had already explained that several times before. Now we have a bill. We have called to resolve this and to ask why no paperwork was left to prove service. But they say they have a record of coming out to our home. Bill is for $95.00. Usually $95 is the amount for an interior and exterior treatment. Again, we did not agree to any services being done and we never saw anyone come to our home. I called yesterday (7/17/23) and was told that manager (*****) would return my call. Have not received that call yet. We do not owe them a dime, bill needs to be adjusted and account closed.

  Yesterday I reached out to the name on the account, Mrs. ******************** via a phone call and a text message.  She let me know that she would forward the message to her husband.  As of now I have not heard from him.  Per the service agreement that *************** signed (see the attachment), attached is a section of that service agreement that acknowledges that if we are unable to schedule the service we will render treatment to the exterior and follow up with the interior at a later date of their choosing.  We attempted to schedule this service multiple times with no response from the homeowners.  We would like to resolve this by scheduling the interior service with the Young's and keeping them as customers.

  I am rejecting this response because:
  

  I called Arrow and left a message for ***** to call me back, but instead he called my wife. She already spoke with someone on your staff and was frustrated.  If we go back to the last service in March, we did not want to continue and because of that you offered to do the exterior for $50 instead of the normal $95 (*******************).  You actually still charged us the $95 and we had to call up there and get the invoice adjusted (Inv #********).  We agreed to that.  Then you're telling me that on the next visit (5/24/23),  because we did not answer your calls, you came out anyway and charged us for a full service.  If your technician performed the service, how would we know?  He did not leave a work order or a business card or anything.  And we did not receive a bill until almost 6-weeks later.  No transparency at all.  As for the agreement, we do not have a copy of the one we signed, but why didn't you explain that clause when you left all the voicemails?  You would have received a call for sure if that was mentioned.  We do not want to continue business with Arrow.

  
  Sincerely,

  I will adjust the balance due to $70 to cover for the services rendered to the exterior and adjust off the rest.  The account will be cxl'd after that.

  I manage the Facilities and ********************** of ***************** Schools, based out of *************** and operating schools across the Unite ******. ***************** Schools acquired an *******, *********** in 2022, formerly known as Color Us Kids. Arrow Exterminators previously provided pest control and termite prevention services to the previous entity and owners however, is not a contracted service provider for ***************** Schools. Arrow Exterminators has repeatedly, since May 2023, sent invoices for services that are neither contracted for nor have been performed to the best of our knowledge, to the *************************** and to senior leadership within ***************** Schools. I have spoken with and emailed *******************************, employed by Arrow Exterminators, on multiple occasions asking that the communication stop and informing her that Arrow Exterminators does not have a service agreement with ***************** Schools and no services should be performed and there should be no communication between Arrow Exterminators and ***************** Schools. I spoke with a woman named *********, employed by Arrow Exterminators, on July 5, 2023 and reiterated the same message previously given to ****************. At that time, ********* confirmed any equipment Arrow Exterminators had onsite would be picked up and all communications would cease. On July 12, 2023, 3 additional invoices for work that has not been performed nor is contracted for were again received by the *************************** at ***************** Schools. This complaint is being filed due to the ongoing harassment and poor business practices that Arrow Exterminators has displayed and the continued unsolicited communication. Resolution requires that they simply cease their aggressive tactics and cease all communication with ***************** Schools going forward.

  This company charged for a full year of service with expectation of four treatments. Arrow did a single treatment this year and due to health issues, we had to move to *******. I contact them on or about 5/20 to let them know we would be terminating service on our resident. I did this through their online portal. I never received a refund or response. I contacted them again through their website on or about 5/27 to request a refund and response. Their portal had been migrated and therefore I could no longer login to communicate with them, so an email was sent through the website. Once again, I never heard back. I called on or about 6/8 and talked to reception who took a note on the above and promised contact withing 24 hours from the local representative. This has not happened.

  Spoke with ******************** and there was a miscommunication between our office and his mother. We were under the impression that the services were to stay with the neighbors which purchased the home. ******************** understands and knows that we will process a refund in the amount of $382.12. To be mailed to his mothers new address.

  Account number *******. We have been billed for service since March 2023 and have not received any. We have paid $247.20 from March to **** with no service. My husband and I have both been calling to speak with a manager and have been told we will be called back but it never happens. This has been going on for about a month and about six phone calls between the two of **. We want our money refunded and to cancel service. We will not be doing business with this company going forward.

  I cancelled the service but they showed up anyway so I paid it and cancelled it again. I called and sent a letter on the bill when I sent in the payment asking them to cancel.They still sent someone out. I stopped him and told him I had cancelled. They still billed me and continue to bill me and to call me. I can't even begin to tell you how many times I have spoken to them about this. Every time they tell me they will take care of it yet I get another bill and more phone calls.I believe they have sent it to credit reporting as well,This is a horrible company.

  Technician, *******************, sprayed my yard without an appointment or consent for treatment. I have been sent a bill, and I want that bill to be removed from my account. I no longer wish to use Arrow Exterminators services in the future as well.

  Date: 03/01/2023

  I have reviewed the account and there was communication between the technician and the customer earlier in the month to try and coordinate the scheduling of the service. Looking at the notes the service was scheduled for January 25th but was cancelled for that day due to heavy rain. The technician did go by and to try and do the full treatment on Saturday January 28th. He did not get an answer at the door but went ahead and treated the exterior per our Agreement. I had called Mr. ****** regarding the issue on February 2 but to my knowledge the call wasn't returned. I will reach out to ************** again this morning to try and resolve the issue.

  I received a bill for $310.00 from Arrow Exterminators. I have never contacted them or asked for their services prior to this bill being received. When I contacted them to inquire, I was asked if I had purchased a new home and that they were just continuing the billing for the previous Owner and just transferred it into my name without my permission or having been contacted regarding using their services. They said they didnt have my phone number, so they just changed the **** into my name without contacting me. This seems highly unethical. If they would like to have me as a Customer, they cannot just simply bill me for their services. Seems shady and very, very wrong way to handle business. They arent confused about if I am their Customer and should not be wasting my time trying to figure out what sketchiness they are up to. It seems this has been their way of doing business after having read the previous complaints. This should stop! You cannot just simply send out unauthorized bills to people to attempt to get new business. You cannot simply transfer someone elses bill into the new Homeowners name! Shady! Shady! Shady! I want this practice to be stopped. If you want new business from new Homeowners, you cannot just simply send them a bill!

  The previous homeowner of the address listed in the complaint invested in our termite protection service for thier home. The homeowner maintatined the protection annually. We received returned mail from the previous homeowner around October 2022. After researching public records, we determined that the home had been sold. Since the new homeowner contact information was unavailable and we were still responsible for protecting the home we transferred the warranty to the new homeowner. On October 13, 2022. We mailed the new homeowner a letter explaining the termite protection service and explained the options available for maintaining the protection and asked for their contact information so that we could communicate with them and further explain the termite protection. The new homeowner apparently ignored our communication efforts.

  As the protection was set to expire at the end of November 2022 without the annual renewal payment, our system automatically sent a renewal notice to the individual listed on public record as the new  homeowner.           

  On 11/14/2022 at 9:09 am Ms. ******************************* (New Homeowner) called our office to inquire about the termite protection renewal notification she received. We thoroughly explained the service, the service history and her OPTION to renew or simply opt to cancel the protection and have the system removed.  We also explained that the notification was not a bill and she was under no obligation and did not owe anything if she did not want to continue the protection.  She said that she would like cancel the protection and have the system removed. She indicated that we could come to the home and remove the system at any time.  We noted the account and have an order for  removal of the system scheduled.

  I am rejecting this response because:

   

  I never received any correspondence other than a bill from Arrow. You do not have the authority to bill me. If you want to request I utilize your service, you may contact me without sending me a bill for services due. You cannot transfer someone elses **** into my name!!! You may inquire if I would like to do business with you. If the billing had just accidentally been sent out again, it would have been in the old Homeowners name, not mine. Someone had to have input my name on that **** without my permission. Unacceptable! Shady! Shady! Shady!
