On 3/20/25 I hired an Angi project worker to remove and reinstall my front door. The door was not a standard door in that it has two side lites and somewhat custom framing. Late in the day around 4 pm, the two workers arrived. It was obvious that they were not prepared for this more complex job as they only had a few hand tools. It took them over 2 hours just to remove the existing door. My husband, who is a master contractor, arrived home and immediately sensed the job was WAY over their heads/skillset. The Angi workers, including ***** *., started asking my husband for his power tools, most of which he had left on the job site. It soon was getting late, so my husband gave them $120 for their efforts, boarded up the open "hole" and we installed the front door ourselves the next morning. I immediately contacted Angi via chat while the workers were still here that this wasn't going to work and please cancel the job, which they agreed to. I was shocked that I received the FULL CHARGE on my credit card ($697,84) for the entire job. I immediately disputed it with my credit card company, who, in turn, informed me that Angi would not credit the amount. As of 5/16/25 I spent almost 45 minutes total to get a 50% refund on the charge which is actually ridiculous. Basically almost $500 to remove a door. We have a lot of rehab rental projects going as well as a small HVAC business, so sadly our house comes last. I thought Angi would be the answer but instead it turned into a rip off.Business Response

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and have determined the response would not resolve my complaint. For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.
We paid for a service that was not complete. Again, the Angi contractors who were actually software engineers, were woefully unskilled and asked us to borrow power tools. After I explained this to the Angi *** at the time of service, they agreed the job would be cancelled. The service *** tried to blame me by saying I didn't select the correct job category (remove/***lace front exterior door--handyman) and then actually deactivated my account which I was unaware of until I contacted their customer service. I am asking for a full refund, not half as paying almost $400 to just remove a door is unacceptable. Angi needs to vet their contractors better.

They have NOT made multiple attempts to contact me. In fact, they have made no attempts. I watch my phone very closely and I have not had any calls nor voice mail messages from Angi nor any written correspondence. I was the one that had to continually reach out to Angi as they were charging me for an incomplete job in which their workers were grossly under qualified. Angi actually deactivated my Angi account so I could not contact them further through the app.

I signed up for Angi list as a contractor 3 months ago, I am locked in to paying for leads at $350/month. In the last 3 months I have closed 1 job. The leads I am getting are poor and not generating any type of business or income for me. As a new small business this seems very much like a scam, half the "leads" never even answer, most of them feel like fake leads especially when I call and they never answer and or just quote shoping prices. When I called to cancel my service for dissatisfaction they then told me there would be an early termination fee of almost $1300. This is absolutely absurd and I am 100% getting ripped off by Angi list. I want to simply cancel my account and am not paying them an early termination fee. This is a disgraceful way to run business and the fact that they have a 35% early term fee goes to show they are ripping people off. They know they are scamming people and are charging a high rate to try and keep you in. They want 1300 for me to cancel they have already got ***** out me, thats enough.. there is no loss to them not sending me leads, I just eant out. I will not stop until I am out of this contract free and clear. Thank you for your time and attention to this matter.Business Response

We sincerely regret that **** did not have a positive experience with the Angi Network. We apologize for the concerns they encountered regarding the leads and our support. Our goal is to ensure that our leads are of high quality and relevant to their business. When a customers project aligns with the provider's services offered and availability, they should receive relevant project details as a new lead. We appreciate ****** feedback, as it is invaluable in helping us improve our services. We wish we could have assisted them more effectively to achieve success with our platform. We have cancelled ****** account per the guidelines outlined in the contract and the terms and conditions.

They collected a lot of my personal information and then the website said my phone number is not valid (which is FALSE). They then blocked me from finding the information I was seeking.

On Saturday May 3rd I had a job thru the angi pro platform to construct 20 beds for a customer. The total pay for this job was $333.25. I confirmed this appointment within 24 hours with the customer. I showed up on the date and time provided thru the app to provide the service. The customer advised me that the job was indeed factual. So upon completion of the work I was paid the sum of $333.25 which was cashed to my checking the next day. Now a week later Angi decided to place a hold on my account in the amount of -$250.50 for overpayment. The customer had cancelled the ticket after the job so Angi decided intead of eating that fee that they would pass it back to me after paying me. So now my account is in negative standing and I cannot work due to this. I cannot work for free. Two service representatives were very unhelpful and just said to me thats how it is and it will stand. I use this app frequently to supplement my income and buy food for my family of five. Now I have to figure something else out as I cannot afford to work back all the wages I was paid out for. This is unfair business practices and on top of that the lack of communication from this situation is astounding. If I hadnt checked my payments I would of never known of this situation. I would just have had any future wages stolen for work provided with no compensation. This is wage theft and violates labor laws.Business Response
Date: 05/16/2025
We appreciate ****** bringing this to our attention, and we're sorry to hear that their recent experience has been anything but positive. After review of the account we can see that the pay was removed as ****** had not performed the service. Upon arrival ****** was told that service was not to be done as the items were being shipped to another location. Per our internal information ****** was only on site for one minute. In these circumstances typically a homeowner would call to cancel the service prior to the booking date, but this was not done. While no fee should have been incurred, there also should not have been a full payout to ****** as no work was completed. We have ultimately removed the fee, but in the future if ****** is asked to not perform the work our Pro Support team should be notified the same day. This would help ensure that the project is closed out appropriately, and prevent any overpayment in the future.Customer Answer

I tried to reach out to pro support on that day and on many other occasions. Most of the time the app shows no one is available or does not function as needed. I have had to uninstall and reinstall the app numerous times. I appreciate you taking care of my issue in a considerate and timely manner and will do my best to try and reach out for future issues. But I ask that the app either needs a rehaul or a better way to reach out to support. Whether it be by calling or a separate form of chat. As the only system in place does not work as well as it should. And that a system of notifications or text be added to make pros aware of situations like this.Regards,

I purchased a ceiling fan for my patio to be installed in place of a canned light. The first pro came up, didnt have the proper ladder and had to use mine and still couldnt get the job completed. In the process, the existing light has been left dangling from the ceiling. Day 2, different pro comes and he also doesnt have a ladder, he then proceeds to tell me that h*** be back with a ladder after his next job has been completed, but only if Id cancel through Angi and pay him directly. This has been a complete nightmareBusiness Response

November 6. Angi contractor showed up late; took down 4 pieces of siding, then determined he could not complete the job. This was supposed to be a 6-hour job. The contractor showed up at 8:30. Looked around. Left to take his wife and child to the bathroom. Wasted a lot of time. At exactly 11:19 am, I cancelled the job on Angi website. Angi immediately at 11:19 am charged my credit card the full amount of $1476. After some disputing, they agreed to refund me half, but later said they will not issue the refund because I disputed the charge with my credit card company. The dispute with the credit card was closed. Even though the credit card company closed the dispute without action, Angi still won't issue the refund.Business Response
Date: 05/14/2025
We appreciate ******** concerns, and we're so sorry to hear that they've had this experience. We do make every effort to process refunds in a timely manner, however if a charge is disputed the card provider does place a lock on the account preventing us from releasing any funds back in the form of a refund. This process can take up to 90 days even after a dispute is closed by the card provider. As sufficient time has passed we have been able to process a full refund back to ******** original form of payment. While the refund has been processed, depending on the card provider, it can take 3 - 5 business days for the transaction to show on the account. If ****** does have any additional questions we do ask that they call our ************* team directly for assistance.Customer Answer

They referred a company called Irishman Pressure Washing from **** ******* to me. This man came to my home although I told him not to because I was not home. Video shows he walked around to the back and entered my home where he stayed for 4 minutes. There was no need to go inside to quote pressure washing. When I saw the video, I reached out. He at first apologized and then turned victim very quickly posting my full name and crazy accusations on social media. I called Angis list who said they would look into it for their Professional Standards. They said they would send a link so I could send the texts and videos but they never followed up and would not return subsequent calls. This company is a fraud. They don't care what their vendors do to us as long as they pay them their fee. He never even did a quoteBusiness Response

Contacted by Angi sales department and given misinformation over the phone. Once contract was signed was not given the steps provided over the phone on how to proceed. Once attempting to cancel and being told there is a 35% fee, even though the contract was not carried out in which the way they stated it would be over the phone. Told to call to cancel auto renewal when calling and told by company it is too early to cancel auto renew and they dont know how to do that yet. Have not been given straight information by company overbearing sales team very unprofessional.Business Response
