      I sold my house in ******** 3/2/23 and currently living ** helping out family. I had on many previous occassion told them not to perform services without my consent. Spring Green lawn care is forcing me to pay for services at house I no longer reside in or own. They are forcing me to pay for services allegedly performed in April 1 2023.They claim I did not inform them I sold my house so I am responsible, Which seems ludicrous as they need to verify the customer wants the services.

      Spring Greens services are continuous year to year until otherwise notified by the customer.  ******************** reminds customers of this on every invoice left with each service, and also with renewal letters we mail during the winter season that specify Spring Green will resume services in the spring. This procedure has not changed since ************** originally set up services in 2019.

      Prior to 6/27/23, Spring Green did not receive any communication from ************** that she would like to discontinue services.  As such, Spring Green did complete 2 services,one on 4/3/23, and one on 5/26/23, for a combined total of $263.60 in services.  When ************** called to cancel on 6/27/23, Spring Green did offer to split the bill in half, offering to take a payment of $131.80 and waive the remaining balance, but ************** did not make that payment.

      At this time, Spring Green has waived the entirety of the balance, including the interest charges that had accrued.  As ************** had not made a payment on the disputed balance, Spring Green believes there is no refund to be issued, and considers this matter now resolved.

      Ordered services from Spring Green on 3/3/23, on multiple occasions have requested a phone call of when my representative would come to service my home, they claim it's on my account . It's not apparently of making me aware with a day or date of when I'm scheduled to be serviced .The weeds have started to appear on my property so I called on 4/14/23 and spoke to ****** and ***** and then a supervisor *** and tried to resolve the issue but nothing has been done .I requested my full refund for the services since they have a satisfaction guaranteed on their services but that has not happened either .Called Chase and opened a dispute but still waiting for this to be rectified

      Business Response

      Date: 04/24/2023

      We apologize for the experience that ****************** has had with Spring Green.  We did complete the first fertilizer application on 3/24/23, having given a call to the phone number ****************** provided on 3/23/23.  ***************** did call about new weeds growing on 4/14/23 and we offered to set up a free service call to treat those weeds, but ****************** requested to cancel his account, which we did at that time. 

      When we attempted to refund the **** the next business day, 4/17/23, the **** was marked as non-refundable by the bank, so we needed to write two checks to mail to the service address instead; one check in the amount of the unused prepayment, and another check in the amount of the one application the customer received and prepaid for but we are refunding due to dissatisfaction.  The refund checks are going out in the mail tomorrow,4/25/23, at the latest.  As we have yet to receive the charge dispute from Mr. ******** bank, and weve already issued a refund check for the refund amount, we would appreciate if ****************** would contact his bank to notify them that the refund check is on the way.

      I am rejecting this response because:

      You can never believe anything this establishment states or indicates .

      They claim they contacted or tried to refund the charges, that was false, as ***** has no record of anyone attempting this .

      I have no trust in anything this business says and will wait until the checks that they claim will be mailed.... I will hold my breath as they are not very trust worthy and by far is the WORST business I Have ever dealt with .

      I will contact the credit card company once the checks have been cleared and posted but nothing until that happens, I have been mislead and lied to on several occasions form Spring Green and will make sure others know how crappy they are, they have no customer service and no reputation of how to value customers and others need to be aware of not making the same mistake I did .  


      Sincerely,

      This all started when we signed up for Spring Green care back in April 2021, the manager came out and looked at my lawn and gave me a price after I told him my concerns of my lawn and was told none of them were a problem. So we signed up for basically full service and I also worked with them the first year to get my results. I rented and manually dethatched my lawn, which I was told would help, I also got 1-1/2 yds. of black dirt and manually spread it in the section of my lawn to level it out. At the end of the first year, things did not work out as planned so I paid for overseeding of Kentucky blue grass seed. Following spring of 2022, I didn't notice grass seed taking very well in the raw black dirt. They came out and looked a few times per my request and then decided to do a slit seeding at no charge to me, since the Kentucky blue grass didn't take and gave me a date of June 2022, which that day came and left, on and off text messages all summer long until Sep. 2022 when the assistant manager of Spring Green contacted me and once again promised me he would be out in a few weeks for the slit seeding that I waited all summer for. And just like the manager, it never happened. ******** excuses and false promises. I do have all the text messages between the manager and the assistant manager. At the end of the 2nd season 2022, I requested a full refund. I believe I paid a total of $719.68, not including the other things I did to help him get the results I was promised. I received a refund of $406.24 and the lawn that is in worse shape than when they started. I'm reminded of this every day when I look out at my front yard and see mud.

      Spring Green is dedicated to quality service.  We apologize that we did not meet Mr. ***** expectations of us and that we also did not communicate effectively with *********** regarding scheduling and completion of the promised slit seeding to help the bare areas fill in.  We would like to thank ************ for his previous trust and allowing us to make this matter right by mailing a refund check for the remaining $313.44.

      Complaint: 19619352

      I am rejecting this response because: Even though I would gladly take the rest of the refund, I feel they made my lawn worse over the last 2 years and it would cost me even more to get it back to where it was.  It is now very uneven which is also the reason they were going to slit seed it because it would have helped even out the lawn. I don't feel I'm asking too much after waiting 2 years for them to come out and fix what they promised to do for my lawn in the beginning and I would also like to be a priority and not have to wait all year/season to have it done. 

      Sincerely,

      ***********************, Sr>

      Business Response

      Date: 04/03/2023

      In addition to processing the previously offered refund, the branch manager has reached out to ************ and we've agreed to perform a free slit seeding in order to help the lawn get closer to **************** expectations for his lawn.  We are planning to complete this slit seeding towards the end of April, as long as the weather allows us to and soil conditions are good.  If we cannot complete this service in late April, we will continue to communicate with ************ to reschedule the slit seeding until it's been completed.

      I have used Spring green for lawn care service for 2-3 years now and each year I pay up front for the entire years service. This year I was not going to use them. I place no call for their service. I have received a bill for $430 for one application of weed control (in January). I called to see why I received this when no service was ordered and they stated it is a reoccurring service. NO contract with them has been signed by me, they say they put that on the invoices ( I pay annually and did not see that on the last bill I paid). I was provided rude customer service along with this and I do not wish to pay for this bill for work not ordered, let along work in January when weeds are not even growing. Spring Green has now threatened to send me to collections. I am asking for help in resolving this matter. I am looking to have the bill zeroed out and no further contact from this company. I have worked hard to have perfect credit and do not want it messed up by a company providing work that was not ordered. I could have sold this home and they would still bill me?

      This letter is in response to yours of January 26, 2023, in relation to a complaint from consumer ************************

      Spring-Green, a national franchise organization, that has over 45 years of industry experience offering professional lawn, tree, and pest control services.  Our standards are amongst some of the highest in the industry and we are well respected in the marketplace. The business in question is independently owned and operated out of *****, ** by *******************,LLC, and is not operated by the Spring Green Lawn Care Corp. in **********,********. The Spring Green ***** franchise has been in operation since 1992.  They have over ***** recurring customers and a 4-star rating on Google.  While this complaint is not directed at the corporate location, we have provided a response from the independent business based on information they provided.

      ****************** sites in his complaint that Spring Green had been servicing his lawn for the past 2-3 years.In each of those years, the customer was not asked to sign a contract to renew.Rather, the lawn care industry standard practice is to renew the book of business year over year until the homeowner cancels their service. This is accomplished first by offering the customer two annual prepay letters with discounts, typically around November and January, which ****************** appears to have taken advantage,or if the year is not prepaid the service continuation letter sites the service will continue but at regular price.

      We take our business very seriously and do not wish to burden anyone who does not want to receive our service.After reviewing the complaint, *******************, LLC respects Mr. ******** feelings about the cancellation. The account was not sent to collections, the round of service was credited, and the account cancelled, and as such, we consider this matter closed.

      Please contact us if you require further information regarding this matter.

      I have caught this company charging me for work they say the performed on my property only to watch my cameras to see them not fully doing the work or only doing a portion of my yard yet then billing me for the full service. I had them come out to do an aeration and overseeding in the fall of 2022. After complaining to them that they didn't actually do the work they responded with a text that the owner was going to actually walk the yards himself to make sure it was done and if not they would redo it. He has never come out and they never redid the yard yet tried to bill me for it. After telling them over and over that I will not pay for a service I did not get they sent the bill to collections to hit my credit report and hurt my score. This is the 3rd or 4th time that they have tried to bill me for services not completed.

      Business Response

      Date: 01/31/2023

      The core aeration and seeding that ************************ is referring to was completed on October 12th, 2022.  On October 17th, *********************** texted the local office, concerned that he did not see holes and seeds on the entire property.  That same day, the office replied to ************************* text, explaining that the seed used is the same color of dirt and very hard to see, but, as Spring Green guarantees their service, someone would be by in November to check on the germination of the seed and watering practices.

      Unfortunately,due to the past due balance on the account from 2 completed mosquito treatments and 1 lawn care application, the account was placed on hold.  As a result,Spring Green was unable to complete the check on the seed in November.  Spring Green does request that services completed be paid upon completion to avoid delay or disruption of services, which is stated in writing on all Spring Green invoices, emails, and some other documentation that the customer receives.  In addition to this general request, it was communicated via text to ************************ on October 18th, November 10th,and November 29th that he had a past due balance.  On December 1st, Spring Green emailed ************************ the statement for the account, again requesting payment.  ************************ replied to that email via email, asking what the balance was for, to which Spring Green replied that the balance at that time was for 2 mosquito treatments, the core aeration and seeding, and the round 6 of our lawn care program.  ************************ replied on December 2nd via email that he would be making a payment once back in town later that night.  On December 7th, having not yet received a payment, Spring Green texted ************************ about the balance. 

      On January 21st, 2023, ************************ emailed stated that he tried to pay online but was unable to, that the core aeration and seeding was not completed in the back yard according to his cameras, and requested that he be contacted by noon the following day or he would be contacting his attorney. On January 22nd, the local Spring Green office replied to ************************* email, notifying him that this was the first time hed indicated that we did not service the backyard, that we have GPS tracking that indicates that the backyard was completed, and that wed be happy to call him the next day to accept payment over the phone if he was unable to make a payment online.  On January 22nd and 27th, ************************ emailed Spring Green, continuing to dispute the owed balance due to his camera footage not showing that backyard was completed.  On January 27th,Spring Green replied to Mr. ********* email, explaining the reason for the due balance, the guarantee of the aeration and seeding, and why we are confident that the aeration and seeding was completed correctly.

      As of the morning of January 31st, neither Spring Green nor the collections agency has received payment on the disputed balance.  Should ************************ pay his balance in full and bring his account back into good standing, Spring Green can visit the property in mid-April 2023, after the grass comes out of dormancy, and review the results of the aeration and seeding completed on October 12th, 2022, working with ************************ as needed to help ensure that he is satisfied that the service was completed correctly and hes satisfied with the results.

      I am rejecting this response because:

      Their response is a complete and utter lie. *** caught them cheating me and playing these games before and I have proof of that. I also have proof that they did not complete the work in my yard for the aeration. I do not want the service anymore and I will not pay them so that they can come out now after they lied and do the work. I just want this charge removed from my account and go our separate ways.

      We had lawn service though spring lawn service out of ***** **. I prepaid for my service for aeration and 5 visit with 2 free visit. Since the new Owners has taken over it has been bad and unorganized. I've had to call them each visit to tell them I don't owe them anything because I was prepaid. The lady I talked to seem to have an attitude Also before each visit they should of called to let me know they were coming the next day and they have not they just showed up. If I knew I would of been charged the last time then I won't of let them come. This last visit I called them to tell them that I shouldn't owe anything and that I'm prepaid. The women who I spoke with had an attitude and told me I owe money. No I shouldn't because when I signed up it said I get my last two visits for free! Also the weed killer they used didnt kill my weeds I still have them and it killed my lawn all year! I feel like I've been lead on about being prepaid and getting 2 free lawn services. Also my lawn still has weeds and the weed killer or lawn fertilization killed my lawn!

      Business Response

      Date: 11/11/2022

      This complaint is for one of our independently owned locations.  We have reached out to the owner, who responded with the information below.

       

      To Whom It May ****************** February 2, 2022, ********************* prepaid $409.65 on a property at **********************************************. in ******** **.  The square footage of that property was **** square ft. and that was the price she prepaid for.  Then on April 11, 2022, she called in to switch the same services she had which included a ********* Program and a Core Aeration, to a different address of 356 *********. in ******** which has a square footage of **** sq ft.  We took the prepay money she paid of $409.65 and moved it to the new address.  The first service at the Skagit address started on April 25, 2022.  With the difference in the square footage of the new property at Skagit than the ************ address, the price per sq. ft in which she paid, went up because it was based on the ************ address and the Skagit address was **** sq.ft. larger!


      I do not know if she was told that when she called in to say she moved and to switch the prepay money, or, if she was told that the prepay money would show a credit until all the money was used up, then she would have to pay the difference.  That is why the last invoices showed a balance due.  In talking with the office staff, ***** called in and asked why she had a balance and they tried to explain it to her, and she didnt want to hear it because she said she had prepaid, and ***** was mad about the balance due and felt we lead her on?


      As far as the 5 visits and 2 free, I dont know what that is or where she got that from.  The prepay money was received by ******************* (the prior owners) on February 7th, 2022, and it does not show on the account anywhere that ***** put in, that she got 2 free, plus she didnt have it last year for 2021.


      As far as the pre-calling before we show up, I show the old address of ************ being a Call Ahead, the new address on Skagit St., for whatever reason, does not show it needs a Call Ahead.  I dont know if we didnt ask or if we were told no call ahead was needed but she received 7 visits to her address his year and not once did she ever call in to say to please inform her before we come out. 


      As far as the weed killer shes talking about, enclosed is a picture taken in April 2022 &posted on Zillows website, of the house on Skagit and what it looked like before we took it over.  It shows the lawn is clearly distressed and the lawn was in poor shape when we took it over.Then see attached photos taken November 10, 2022 which shows the lawn covered in leaves but much greener and in better shape.  There are a few spots on the side yard where it looked that it was scalped by a lawn mower.  We could not get visual of the backyard as there was a fence but other than that, we saw no other indications of a stressed lawn.  So, I dont know what she is referring to when she says we killed her lawn?


      In conclusion, her services were the same for each property and if she has proof that she should have gotten 2 free services from the prior owners, we will honor that if she can provide proof of that.   Also, I will add that when ***** did make a payment on her account for the outstanding balance owed, she overpaid it and now it shows a credit of $47.93.


      Sincerely,

      Better Business Bureau:
      I have no opinion but to accept this because the yard is doing better now that it's colder outside but after one fertilization during the summer my lawn was dead from it in the back and front.  Also didn't keep the paper work where if says 2 free ones ****** learn keep all paper work.  Also need to call people the night before saying your coming out.  I never got a phone call telling me you guys was coming.  I never knew when you guys was going to come out.  


      Sincerely,

      *********************

      Spring Green charged me $56.95 for an application not received.There was no bill left on my door which was done each time before.There were no flags left on my lawn which was done each time before.I spoke with 3 different people ( ************ and *****) at three different times.They told me there is a GPS on the truck and this is proof that service was rendered.I told ***** that neither my mother nor I witnessed Spring Green apply their Early Summer ******* Pls Total Lawn Insect Control on 7/11/2022.Both **** and ***** offered to charge me 50% off.I tried to explain that paying half price for something they did not receive is just WRONG.***** wanted me to pay this over the phone. I insisted Spring Green send me another statement with the change. But the more i think about it i am disgusted with this company! I want Spring Green to remove the charge for services they did not provide. I feel as though i am being bullied.

      The customer called in on 7/21/2022 to pay her balance, as she received a statement in the mail. Once the **************** Professional told the customer the balance, she stated the Early Summer ******* Plus and the Total Lawn Insect Control were not done on 7/11/22.The **************** Professional did review the applications, and all information indicated they were completed correctly on the correct lawn. The **************** Professional went on to explain that Spring Green guarantees our services through free service calls, and we can set up a service call to reapply the applications. Rather than setting up a service call, the customer chose to cancel the account. As a courtesy, the **************** Professional did offer to split the balance. Before receiving a clear answer, the customer disconnected the call.

      The customer called back in on 8/22/22 and spoke to another **************** Professional, requesting the account be documented, as she was still disputing the charges for the applications she believed were not completed. She refused to pay half of the balance and the **************** Professional let her know the balance will remain on the account.

      The customer called again on 9/20/22 and spoke to a third **************** Professional disputing the charges. Again, the customer was told on our end the applications were done but we did agree to the split the balance with her. The customer did agree to pay half. A credit of $30.20 was applied to the customers account on 9/20/22, and an updated statement was emailed to the customer on 9/21/22.

      In light of the former customer's continued dissatisfaction with ********************'s offered resolution,Spring Green has credited the remaining $28.47 owed for the completed service,and, as of 9/21/22, has mailed an updated statement, reflecting the $0 balance.

      Spring Green apologizes for not completing the core aeration and overseeding on 8/24/22, as previously agreed upon, and for not proactively reaching out to our customer regarding needing to reschedule.  The core aeration with overseeding has been rescheduled for 9/8/22.  We will ensure that the core aeration with overseeding is completed on 9/8/22, as long as weather allows.

      I informed Spring Green Lawn that I had a particular weed issue in my yard even after they had applied my first service. They informed me that it was called, "Nutsedge" weed and that they would put me on the expedited list to get rid of this. They returned on July 11th and treated my lawn once again and left a **** on my door per usual. The Nutsedge weed is gotten even worse in my yard after this treatment it did not rid of the issue. I have left several voicemails and sent multiple messages through their website contact form about this with NO RESPONSE! I should not be made to pay this **** since they did not treat the issue and they should be made to do what they promised and get rid of the issue!
