      A solicitor came to our property advertising their services. We agreed on the scope of work and payment (two visits for $180 each) with an option to cancel further services afterwards. The ********** that arrived for the first visit refused to do the work that was agreed upon claiming that the sales person was new and didn't know what services were offered. The second ********** didn't provide the agreed upon service either. Upon calling their customer service we were told that closing the account and terminating the agreement would cost us $250 and if we didn't pay we would need to keep paying $180 every two months. These terms of termination were indeed written down in an agreement that the solicitor gave us to sign, however he verbally misrepresented them. Ultimately this feels like a fraud scheme because:1. the sales person misrepresented the terms of the agreement 2. the sales person never communicated the scope of work to the **********s 3. the **********s didn't perform the work that was agreed on 4. the agreement was designed to introduce recurring fees that are difficult to cancel 5. terminating the agreement with the customer service was extremely time consuming and resulted in another fee that will result in a credit card charge In conclusion EcoShield is attempting to take $626 for a service they never provided through predatory sales techniques, misleading terms and agreements, claimed lack of communication between **********s and sales and particularly unhelpful customer service.

      Hi Jedrzej,

      Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We're sorry to hear about your experience and understand your concerns regarding the service expectations and agreement terms. While the signed agreement included the cancellation fee, we recognize that the way the information was communicated fell short of your expectations. As an act of goodwill, weve waived the cancellation fee in full and closed your account to prevent further charges.

      Thank you.

      The original payment included 2 visits. The salesperson ******* lied that he was the co-owner, lied about having several clients in the sub-division and lied that the second visit was included in the first $190.64 payment. They visited the second time and charged an additional $90.64 and was on site for 10 minutes.I have tried 5 times to contact them and get placed on eternal hold. This company needs to be shut down before they continue to lie and cheat other homeowners.

      Hi *******,

      We appreciate you bringing this to our attention. While your signed agreement outlines a 12-month subscription with recurring services billed separately including the service in question, we understand your frustration and are taking your feedback seriously.

      As an act of goodwill, were waiving the cancellation fee and closing out your account. If you have any further concerns or need confirmation of this adjustment, please contact us at ***********************************************.

      Hi ****,
      Thank you so much for reaching out to us we genuinely appreciate you getting in touch! I understand that sometimes service details can be a little tricky to navigate, and I'm happy to help clarify everything about your account.
      You're currently enrolled in our ***************** with a 12-month contract. We always strive for complete clarity and transparency in all our terms and conditions, and I want to make sure you have a full understanding of your plan.
      To help visualize your service plan, here's a breakdown of the 5 billable services that complete your 12-month agreement:
      Initial Service: May 9, 2025
      Egg ************** June 2025 (This usually happens about ***** days after your initial treatment.)
      ********* Treatment: September 2025
      ********* Treatment: December 2025
      Final ***************** March 2026
      Once that final service in March 2026 is complete, please just reach back out to us, and we'll be happy to assist you with canceling the service.
      We absolutely understand that managing your budget is important, and we want to ensure you're aware of the support we've provided. I've had a look at your account, and I can confirm that we've already applied a 50% discount (before tax) to your upcoming ***************** in June.
      What's more, after your June ******** you'll also see a $25 price drop on your recurring *****************s. I noticed that you agreed to these beneficial terms on May 15, 2025, while you had a conversation with our representative, which is great!
      We truly value you as our customer, and while you still need to complete the 5 billable services as outlined, we also want to ensure your satisfaction every step of the way.
      Please remember that you're covered by our 100% service guarantee. This means if you're ever not completely satisfied with a treatment, you can request a complimentary follow-up service between any of your scheduled treatments (with the exception of the period between your initial and egg cycle treatments). Your peace of mind is important to us!
      I hope this helps clarify everything for ***, ****. Please don't hesitate to ask if anything is still unclear or if you have any more questions. We're here to help!
      Warmly,

      Door to door salesman ignored a legally posted No Trespassing sign and proceeded to walk down my private road, some 1000 + feet to become verbally aggressive with my daughter, with high pressure sales tactics. To then proceed to argue with me, when told to leave my property. Salesman then proceeded to neighbors home and became verbally aggressive with a 12 year old child.

      Do companies like this really think harassing people in their home all day makes us WANT to use their service? Get off my porch, you could offer the best service in the world (you dont- the only thing that comes up when googling are people warning about your scammy service) and I will still never use you because you make me feel like I need to involve the authorities to get you off my property.

      This company's *** tried to engage in solicitation despite a clear sign in front of the door indicating we do not accept solicitation. I pointed him to the sign and he still tried to engage in solicitation.

      Today, 30 Apr 2025, a young man from EcoShield knocked on my door. I have seen this same young man for the last two years around this time of year. He has denied this last year and this one. I have told him emphatically, "No" to all services and he goes on and on each solicitation attempt, about the details of how my area neighbors have his service plan, and so on.They do not take no for an answer. I do not want their services -- EVER. I want my home removed from this unwanted solicitation. I've tried to be nice, but it's not working. This company deals in harassment and if they do not leave me alone, I will speak to *************************************Thank you,**** **********

      This company consistently ignores 'no soliciting' signage and knocks on our door multiple times every season. I have contacted their customer support line, sat on hold for 30 minutes and am repeatedly disconnected. This is harassment. I cannot get them to stop. Next step is to file a police report and seek a no contact order against the company.

Three opening to be excluded and trenching for ***** sq ft of house back side of garage. I was told verbally that day the work would be done the next day, on March 11, 2025. expecting all work to be completed. I had to call them to explain everything and then had to settle for March 19, 2025, having to re-arrange other commitments. On Third visit March 19, 2025. Appears two openings were chalked, and a vent screen replaced on the roof. Looked as if the cover from the vent had been removed screening appeared to be intact. I expressed my displeasure to **** that I was promised all work would be done same day. I spoke with the initial inspector at least twice. He convinced me to let ****, do the work March 19, 2025, three exclusions. *******, promised someone would contact me about completing the trenching. To date, no one has called. Now I am concerned with rodents in the crawl space again dying needing to be removed and above all a horrible stench to bear within my home.
