SCAM ALERT: First of all, do not book any cleanings with a lady from this cell phone number 419-931-6519. She said she had many contractors in my area. Then booked a date 3 days out and had me prepay on a credit card. Then she refused to provide me her name and contact information. She hid the information she was booking me on the Handy cleaning app. Furthermore, this entire set up was a scam from the beginning.

I paid, the money has been taken out of my account but no one has done any cleaning. When talking to customer service they are the worst. First person transferred to some random voicemail, second person was less than empathetic, with ZERO phone skills. I basically got an, "oh well that happens." I would not recommend this place and should be removed from the Angie's list preferred providers.
