The verbal discussion about the terms in the beginning never covered the fine print about the service automatically renewing. Yes, contractually, they have the right to bill me. Fine I thought...it's an automated scheduling/billing system, the tech messed up and didn't mention it, there was no notification that a new term of service was beginning and SURELY they'll see my point from a customer service perspective when I speak with them.
The manager dismissively brushed me off...I was completely caught off guard by his complete lack of consideration about the matter, so I'm paraphrasing here. I was essentially told he would terminate future service - but wasn't going to do anything about the current problem and that the $92 bill stood.
I think it's poor business to neglect mentioning an important term and burying it in the fine print (who reads the EULA's with software or their credit card's fine print!?), even shadier to not notify (or "remind," I suppose, assuming someone would ever read such a document in its entirety) someone they've used all of their prepaid service and new costs are being incurred...worse still the situation wasn't rectified, and the cherry on top was the manager's complete lack of empathy and tact in handling the situation.
I certainly don't feel I owe Orkin for the last visit given their basic customer service oversights that caused the issue in the first place. Orkin, if you really insist and want to turn this over to collections, I'll pay it. Just know you'll be costing yourself a lot more bad publicity than the $92 you want to collect.
"Orkin credited the account on 7/10/2013 for $92 and certainly apologize for any frustration this billing has caused our customer."
Our neighbor used Orkin so we tried them.
They were great. Within 3 treatments the problem was completely gone!
We do follow up treatments occasionally just to make sure the problems do not reoccur.
I have tried nearly all over the counter pest products and nothing worked this well or this fast.
They did great work and were fast and very polite
