  After being a satisfied HAWX Pest Control customer for over 2.5 years, I contacted them in June 2024 to cancel my services at our property in ********, ****, because we were selling our house and moving out of state. The agreement was that the July services would be the last one and I requested for the account to be closed.I unfortunately did not realize until mid-November that **** had continued to bill me $58.21 each month for 4 additional months. I contacted them via phone on Nov 12 and they stated that the account had not been cancelled because I had not called back after the last service to request the cancellation. When I asked if they could make a commercial gesture and adjust the $232.84 or additional charges, the lady (Jaz) said she would check with the accounting department and would get back to **** never heard back from HAWX and called back on Nov 22 to ask if they would consider a credit of the $232.84 (all post our house being sold) or at least a partial credit. The lady (*******) kept repeating that all four months of charges were valid because I had not called back after the last service to cancel. I am not aware of other companies requiring multiple phone calls to cancel a service - **** has a very aggressive subscription billing policy. She also said that no exception could be ************* is really frustrating to have been charged over $200 for services not rendered and requested. This is a clear example of very poor customer service, and I would not recommend this company to anybody.

  Hawz pest control services did not perform services that were charged. I have lost faith in the company top perform future services.I was also unaware of the ****** cancellation fee...it was never explained to me when I asked the door to door sales person about fees. In fact I already had a company performing these services and I was told to try them Hawx out. It was never mentioned that I was locking into a 1 year contract..I trusted him

  I signed up paying monthly since July of 2024 to have them catch this 1 field mice (from this being a brand new neighborhood that had to clear land) that is stuck in the wall somewhere and they cant. Horrible horrible customer service! Blessing and ***** 2 of their customer service **** absolutely horrible. Hawx begged me back on august 6th and 7th, 2024 to give them one more chance at catching this rodent and if they hadnt caught it in a month or so then they promised they would give me my money back and cancel at no cost to me. Today I called to cancel after hearing the mouse behind my headboard in the wall last night from 9:30- 6:45am non stop. ***** (who says there is no one above her) said that is not true what I was told previously. The company has never and will never give money back or cancel for free. On the phone call in August, I asked the *** if the phone call was being recorded so that they would have record of what was being promised and she said YES! Today, ***** told me there is no record.

  They provided pest control services to me back in February 2024. At that time, I gave my current (and active) card information over the phone to the company to perform services. I was never charged. I went on their online portal to see if I could pay there. It said my balance was zero. I had no contact with this company until I received an emailed receipt this afternoon and saw that they took money out of my bank account. I called and was told by ******* that my card was on autopay and was declined due to card being expired. My invoice was then deleted from their system. When I asked why I was not notified when my card was declined so that I could verify the info, I was told that since I was set on autopay, they don't do that. I think it is bad business practice to take money out of someone's account 9 months after the service without warning. Over something that was not my fault. I think I should have been notified before this money was taken out of my account. I am fine with owing for the service. I am not trying to get out of paying. I just think this was handled horribly by this business. This is a lot of money for me and has completely screwed with my current finances. All I want from this is to make sure this doesn't happen to someone else. Please make it a practice to follow up on all declined cards, whether they are autopay or not. And please at least give warning before charging someone's card that far from the service date. It blindsided me. If I had been contacted, I would have made arrangements to pay. I understand that mistakes happen, but this was unacceptable.

  I signed up for **** and their forced membership type of service. They have sprayed my house twice now... and i have not had any difference in my pest issue. I am convinced that even if done properly their sprays and pellets are almost pointless after a rain or simply after just one day. I also called them and asked for an indoor service which was free in between scheduled services. So i told them i have a issue with ***** recluse and black widow. So they guy gets here and tells me he can do it for 600 dollars. 600 dollars to spray some spider spray. I can get spider spray at the store for 20 bucks. You guys are terrible. You have provided me with almost nothing and in order to cancel you want me to pay you 200 dollars? What a scam. I want you to cancel my membership free of charge.

  Hawx Pest Control stated they covered all bugs and Rodent protection with their treatments. They stated this was a month to month and there was no contract. I called to cancel their service due to a Rodent infestation where their tech sprayed over the Rodent f**** and did not notify me of the issue and I was told that I needed to pay $200 to cancel the contract that I didn't agree too. We used them for 4 months and our pests only got worse, never decreased. This company is scamming people out of their money.

  Trying to cancel this service and it is impossible to speak to anyone. First and only appointment they treated the neighbors house and after I called them they realized they went to the wrong house. They didn't come back after that one visit. I requested them to come no one showed, I try to access the account can't they lock you out. So naturally I stopped paying for a service where they are not coming. I called to cancel transferred to a dead line. Use the chat bot apparently I'm outside of business hours. They call me to have me pay my bill I pay the bill and while speaking to someone live she's like it the 15 minutes of my day I'll transfer you to the account management department to cancel your account stayed on hold for 45 minutes and actually called there 1800 number on the other line who also put me on hold trying to contact this same team. The person comes back and says you should call back in an hour and a half 6pm EST because they must be busy. I'm like um is that their business hours oh yeah they're open for 3 more hours. Okay call back at 6 I'm getting the machine. After no one coming for months and no one to talk suddenly I get some text the following day from a servicer saying he is on the way to my house for pest Control and I had to tell him do not show up because I am canceling this service. Followed by a response of contact the account manager but when you call the number againnn NO SHOCK it's outside of business hours. I just want to cancel this stuff. It's like they are stringing you along to pay fees and not even perform service. And the service doesn't even do anything. I had more bugs after they "treated" my home. This is ridiculous. I will literally go to the ***** over this fraud and scam behavior. I'm not paying a cancellation fee either for a service that I was never satisfied with or received fully.

  Dear Ava,
  
  Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience or confusion this may have caused. It is not uncommon to observe increased pest activity following your initial service, as our products work to eliminate pests from their habitats.
  
  We offer warranty services whenever a pest issue arises; however, we cannot schedule a service if there is an outstanding balance on your account. Your next quarterly appointment was scheduled for October, but due to the outstanding balance, we were unable to service your home. As the agreement has not been fulfilled, we have had to apply an early termination fee. Please note that your account is closed, and you will no longer receive services.

  Called Hawx Pest control the Utah office at the end of September 2024. Told them to cancel the service. The lady that I spoke with said that she would like to send someone out to do one final visit. Kept telling her to cancel the service. She said that she understood and that she wanted to send someone one more time. We had signed up for their service in Aug 2023. The salesman said that they would be out every 3 months. From Aug 2023 to Jan 2024, they never showed up. In Jan they say they came out, but they have not been showing up and the next visit after Jan 2024 was May 2024. We had to cancel the visit that we scheduled for July 2024 for warranty, they then were scheduled to come out on 8/2/24 and never showed. Then in Sept 2024 was when called to cancel the service. They kept me on hold for over and hour and half. Thats when she said your account has a $100.00 credit and we want to do a courtesy visit on 10/2/24 and your service will be cancelled. Then on 11/1/24 we get an invoice saying we owe them *****. When we called the guy, we spoke to this time said you was supposed to call back to cancel the service. Now we have a bill, and we don't feel should have pay the bill since they were notified in September to cancel service. When we were told that we had a credit for them not coming as they documented. We have cameras around our home, and they had never sprayed the back yard since we have a lock on the gait as well. We have multiple cameras around the house, and they never showed anyone coming out.
