HomeAdvisor (Powered by Angi)Reviews 8,379

If I could I would give them 0 stars rating, unprofessional customer service, over priced. Would not recommend anybody to use HomeAdvisor website nor for customers nor for future contractors. The Home advisor pro web is full of scam, I send 70% $ on fake leads then on real customers. To ask for a $27 refund for the fake lead it's like pulling teath out. No mater how big or small job (90% really small jobs) they will always charge maximum $ for lead. This website is not helping at all, you helping them (home advisor web) cuz you always funding them. Strongly NOT advising anybody to be customer for HomeAdvisor SCAM SCAM SCAM!

Charging you money for leads that are already taken care of and then don't give you your money back because "you exceeded your refund for this year", and you got refunded once because of the same reason!
What a scam, who ever made this thing needs to go to jail.
Had multiple, Non answering leads from home advisor and didn't get refunded because " of the customer doesn't answer it doesn't mean he won't call you back in the future and use your service, non of them did and assuming all of those "leads" were fake.
As a new business owner, I find Homeadvisor Pro a major scam that needs to be removed for good
I do have multiple more examples but I don't want to waste more of my time even speaking on this trash scamming company.

Word of warning: Do not use Home Advisor's pre-paid contracting service. They are quick to charge you card for services you haven't received, but will take 3-5 days to refund you when their contractor fails to show for a confirmed appointment and never bothers to call. And when you call Home Advisor for support they do nothing beyond apologize for the inconvenience and offer to re-book your job with someone else. Worse, they tried to make it my responsibility to contact their contractor to find out where he was and when he would be there. When I voiced my dissatisfaction they assured me that if I rebooked they would make sure that I would be assigned a contractor who has not had any prior 'no shows'. You would think I would have gotten that treatment when I booked the job in the first place! Use them for referrals, but book your jobs through them at your own risk.

First time using this site, to arrange for a handyman to repair my refrigerator. I was informed payment of $113.50 had to be paid before an appointment is scheduled.
I had to take the day off, at the appointed time scheduled, the handyman didn't show up or called. HomeAdvisor, had not contacted me regarding same, after three attempts to resolve this issue with HomeAdvisor, one of the representatives informed me that my refund will be available in three days! That was it nothing more, wow what service!

Not even again

I signed up for this lead service to get more leads to try to grow my business. However the leads weren't planning out and when I try to get credit because I would call the customer or the lead that they would send me within five seconds and that customer already had somebody else on the way and then I wouldn't get credit. It was a big waste of money and time not to mention all the stress that it causes me in my life I'm never sending up with these guys again save yourself some trouble run do never do business with Home Advisor

If there were negative stars they'd get those. I was searching the net for someone to do some work at my home. I got here, looked around, but eventually left the site. Someone from home advisor called me pressing me about the service and guaranteeing quality. Well, I got the exact opposite. The first time their contractor didn't show up. Mind you I had to rearrange things at work and my kids for this appointment. Again, I didn't call them, they hounded me to get this work. They rescheduled to today and 20 minutes before the contractor was supposed to arrive I get a last minute cancellation. They now want to come Sunday at 9am. This is a pathetic outfit. Stay away.

I don't know why I'm bothering writing this, there is no validity at all to any of these reviews. What does this prove I know how to click a box? All the negativity seems so far off my experience I find it hard to comprehend these reviews, it truly seems like some people just like to see the world burn. Well just to highlight my experience I land about 3 out of ten of all the leads I get for fences and there usually about 50 a pop. So I can promise you this when the 3 jobs turn into 10 to 15 grand I really could care less about the 500 bucks it cost me. It keeps me busy throughout the year and if it's so hard for you to call a potential customer back then it may not be for you I guess.

This service is a rip off! I owned a cleaning company and I signed up for HomeAdvisor for new leads. Most of them were junk, and when I tried to get credit I was denied. They even charge me for people who asked for services I did not offer. They do not make it easy to manage for professionals who are out moving around all day and not constantly on their app or in front of a laptop. I also tried to cancel on their pro home advisor.com and then still got charged over $200 after my business was closed. Their system is set up just to take your money as quickly as possible. Avoid at all cost!
