One of the worst customer service experiences I have ever had…read more
Had a roof inspection done with the intent to get a detailed report of my roof, with photos and descriptions of the current status. Probably the most basic service a roofing company can offer. They failed to deliver at almost every step of the way.
Took me 2 months to be able to get the report. But the stress along the way in having to deal with the company was unbelievable. I have had to follow up with over 15 emails, 20 phone calls, and countless texts asking for the report. Every time a new version was issued, it was incomplete, and the customer service got worse.
First, the report was a poorly handwritten note by the inspector. Then, when I mentioned again the need for a report that included all the photos taken, with descriptions, in the company's official letterhead, the new versions came with only a handful of photos and no descriptions. My requests were passed around countless times, and every time the new assignee did a worse job.
As my follow ups started to tally up, the reports missed photos, missed descriptions, time and time again. My requests were never escalated to management, and when I asked for a call back or status update, they never got back to me. Their admin - the person I was interacting with directly and for most of all of these requests - is an absolute incompetent at her job. I cannot reiterate enough.
When I got fed up with it all, after two months of trying, I asked for a refund. When I picked up the check, their admin didn't even look me in the eye, didn't say a single 'sorry' - she just handed me the check with an entitled face as if I'm giving her more work. I was speechless with the interaction and simply walked out of their office.
But it gets worse. The second that I cashed the check, the inspector called me and yelled at me for requesting a refund for a service that he had done, but his team never delivered or completed based on my needs and countless asks.
Only then did the owner of the company called me, trying to fix things, and to get the job that his team was unable to do, done properly.
Although he apologized for his team's incompetence and ability to deal with a basic service and to deliver on my clear and repeated requests, he still had the courage to ask me to remake the payment for the terrible service. I laughed in total disbelief.
After two months, dozens of calls, texts, and emails, I finally got the report. Their team didn't know how to work correctly the system to be able to issue it correctly.
Will never rehire this company or recommend to anyone that I know. If they can't deliver on an inspection report, I can't imagine the other services.
