TruGreen

What words are brought to mind when I think of Trugreen?
Well firstly DISHONEST, SNEAKY, UNDERHANDED and things cloesly related to these phrases.
I had friends who worked here and had service for our house and several family houses. I have yet to head anything good related to the mention of this company.
NEVER EVER prepay or have a mail to address with Trugreen. The technicians have a way of not doing the services but taking credit that they did. We had a security camera installed on his garage due to drunken idiots occasiocally driving through the yard. This same camera watched a trugreen truck pull up, knock on the door, get back in the truck for a few minutes and walk the ticket up to the door. Talk about ballsy!
I talked to the branch manager «Barry» about this issue. Barry had a unique way of being extremely condescending and kind of a jerk all at once. He seemed very uninterested in what I had to say. He went out of his way to cut this conversation very short almost like he could not be bothered to talk to me. He said they would put me on call ahead list to let us know the day they were coming and they would reprimand the individual. I dont know if he was having a bad day or what, but someone in a position of a branch manager I would expect to be extremely professional and maybe understanding to unpleasant circumstances. I was not even being irrate and plus I had a video of some tool blowing my $ 65.
Later on that summer I watched another technician hop out with a backpack sprayer spot treat our weeds (a few at that) and call it a day. That does not sound like it was worth $ 65 does it?
On the other hand my grandmother (in a nearby city) prepaid for five services. She saves ALL of her reciepts. At the end of the year guess how many door tickets she had. She had TWO. Actually three forgive me. One was also mailed to her. Tell me, if you were at her house and did the service. Why would you need to mail it? Aside from that she had not seen one of their flags in the yard since the early summer.
Please do yourself a favor and do not waste your time, patience, or money on in my experience one of the shadiest companies around.
