Thumbtack

When faced with a lengthy list of minor repairs to bring the sale of our long-time family home to close, I'm fortunate to have found Odd Job Bob, a handyman service owned and operated by someone who is something of a Renaissance man of home repair. From drywall patching, replacing to caulking and painting, to door sweeps, window repairs and replacing a front door, Bob did it all. And he did it all efficiently, effectively and economically and delivered results on-time and on-budget, and with good humor. Thanks, Bob!

On thumbtack advertising show refund if costumer don't answer but that lie i paied like 1000$ and get like 3 jobs and the amount i did with that 3 job i paied 1000$ i spend with leads and the rest of the money leftover is not enough to pay my days work, is very bad this app

I have been with Thumbtack for a few years, I have only gotten ONE job from the site and now they have changed the way you send quotes. Instead of buying "CREDITS" which was expensive in the first place, now you have to use money. I just received an email and to send ONE quote it would cost me $33.60. That's just to SEND the quote. There is no vetting process for people looking for services, most of them are just "FISHING" for a price range, then cancel their request and the business is out the cost of the quote. The only way to make this work better is to have the ones looking for a service to pay as well, that would end a lot of the "FISHING" requests. I am done with them.

Thumbtack should be shut down for stealing money from trusting customers. They sell fake/bot leads and charge insane amounts of money for jobs that aren't worth the time. This way of "doing business" has become a regular thing for companies like THUMBTACK, BARK, WEDDINGWIRE/WEDDING PRO etc. I have been shooting weddings for 10 years and these "services" are trash that offer little to no value. In 2021, I shot over 50 weddings, engagements, and other photo/video jobs. 2 out of 50 (4%) came from these guys. The amount of money spent for leads and "ads" vs money made for those two jobs didn't even zero out. I deleted Thumbtack a few months ago and this month, was charged $35 for a lead. My account isn't even active anymore. I have deleted everything, deleted my credit card and blocked them from my email and am still being charged. We have reported them to Visa. If you are a pro, this is not the place. If you are a beginner, trying to build your portfolio, this is also not the place. Huge waste of time and money.

I have been with them for over a year, spend money and got 2 leads and only because they knew of me anyway.
Thumbtack FABRICATE most of the requests and there is no way to verify the veridicity and seriousness of the people pretending to contact you. It is a well organized FRAUD. They read your quote and charge you $3,50
A multimillion dollar scam. Another PONZI scheme.
Look at the hundreds of complaints thumbtack has all over and you may realize they have set up a pretty good scheme.

As a consumer, horrible experience, also hearing the same feedback from the biz owner.

I provided the 'top pro' with a pic of the work, '1' single pole light switch replacement - I provided the material, new switch and plate = all labor job. His advertised rate was $50/hr. He accepted the work, no estimate or contract, scheduled and completed the job and as expected, finished in ~30 minutes. He then messaged me and said ok, the bill is $120?! He proceeded to tell me that I'm stealing because I would not pay 2.4x higher than his advertised rate. False and deceptive advertising is illegal on a state and federal level. He admitted the work was only labor, but cried about Thumbtack fees and how long it took to get to the job - how is this my problem?

After waiting nearly 3 weeks to talk to a human to address this disparity, Thumbtack support totally passed the buck and said hey, not our problem; yet they facilitate the advertisement of rates that are entirely misleading.

I paid the 'pro' his hourly rate and the Thumbtack fee they hit him with, $70 in total. In turn, the 'pro' responded to me and accused me of stealing because I refused to pay $120...? Avoid frustration and avoid this platform, total joke.

On August 18th of this year. A group of 14 ladies had the pleasure, of booking a day trip, with Events by Tashielallc.com.The Hostess made out day, very special, We received wonderful ginger massage, that made you feel, like a new woman. We relaxed in the hot tub, and bake in the sauna. A few ladies enjoyed the pool. We enjoyed a lovely lunch, and had fun at the Casino. Our wonderful hostess Tashiela, gave each ladies a gift, with pampering things in them. We have already booked out next trip in October. Can't wait. We have 20 or more ladies going this time.

I have used "You've Got Maid's" services now for about 4 months and each time they've clean my house; I have come home to the cleanest house I have ever been in these girls do the absolute best job ever and I would recommend this company and those ladies to my family and friends because they are a very professional dresses! Managed & very Thorough at their cleaning, not leaving a single thing undone, they are on time within the time allotted and they are super friendly! Wich are 2 of my biggest Pet peeves! And I absulutly love how they never leave my house unless it's completely clean I absolutely love this company & I will continue using them throughout the years to come service my beautiful home, thank you You've Got Maid's for giving me the best service ever

I have been using as a business owner to get leads. Sadly a previous employee had the info for the account and has been using my company name and this site to acquire leads for himself. I have reached out to Thimbtack to try to get the person blocked. But oddly even though I recieved messages in my email and on the business phone of leads in Califirnia (my company is in Houston Tc) being answered and communicated with Thumbtack doesn't see them. HMMM a bit odd to me. And they can't seem to help me. I would NEVER recommend this site to any business for use.

I had several customers contacted me and they never read the first message or respond at all, thumbtack refused to refund. I've only got 2 real customers since I've signed up for a year.
