I have owned a small construction business for about 10 years. Always convinced that word of mouth and cold calling were the only true ways to generate business.I heard a bunch of horror stories about Angi’s list from fellow contractors how it was a scam and waste of money etc…I gave it a shot and I was waiting to see what happened before giving this review. 2 and a half months in… I can say with 100% certainty that this works. It has been an absolute game changer for my company and just one week worth of leads has easily paid for the year of ads x10. Not to mention the referrals from said leads.That being said, you need to follow their instructions word for word! Follow their set up to a T and realize they are simply putting leads in front of you and not already sold jobs. You are getting opportunities to bid on jobs coming in from multiple platforms. Also like usual- realize you will not sell every job. However many leads/jobs you think you need, opt for more and then you have the option to start turning away new jobs if they aren’t exactly what you want. I should have done this years ago and will advocate for Angi any day of the week to anybody. If you are uncertain, do it! It won’t happen over night but one day you will wake up with 10 jobs to look at per day. This is not a paid review and wish I could prove it lol

We pay quite a bit every month to connect with customers via service areas. For over a month now, when I click on service areas it says, “oops! Something went wrong!” And highlights the entire US. I’ve called and when support logged on to my profile in the app they saw the same problem. We went through troubleshooting and there was still nothing they could do. They said it would be resolved soon. I reached out via chat a couple weeks later (still same issue) and they said there was nothing they could do because it was a glitch in the app. Our leads have slowed EXTREMELY since this issue. Bottom line is we are paying a lot of money, the app isn’t working correctly for one of the most important aspects, and it seems to be affecting our leads. I would love to give 5 stars because of the amazing customer support and service this company provides. They do really want to set up their customers with the best providers, and they help providers get set up with profile and marketing tips, ect. They are incredibly responsive, friendly, and seem to like their job. This seems to be a higher up issue that needs to be resolved. I would be happy to adjust my review if this issue gets resolved.

I signed up for this app . They made us pay $288 dollars for a membership of full year of leads. I signed up to do interior painting and exterior, all about remodeling. We got one or two leads that was according to our field. And then they give leads for things that we don’t even do. And the worst part is the every lead were small projects and on top of that this app charge you for every single leads that you get even if we didn’t get any leads or if we didn’t take the leads that was not our field . And for a week or two we used this app and we didn’t get any costumer . And most of them are fake because we you get the lead we’re contacting the costumers and we never heard back from them. So most of them are fake. After a week of using this app. They going to charge you for every single lead even if you didn’t take the lead even if you didn’t do any job from it. And they wanted us to pay them over $3000 dollars . For the fee of every lead . And im doing this so the people out there. Don’t use this app or prevent them to pay whatever they say. And they always promised you in the beginning to give back the money you invested on this app. But it’s a lie. They don’t return the money. This app is the worst.

I’m paying $500 per month, I only got 1 lead the first month, that was only window shopping, I called them they said they couldn’t lower the payment, then I tried to cancel they want me to pay a huge amount of money that my business hasn’t even generated from them. To be honest this company is a huge scam mostly for small businesses, I was supposed to get leads and I only got one from those leads that worked after I had made appointments, some of the leads they sent canceled last minute. As a construction company this affected me big time. Now they want me to keep paying for leads that I’m not even getting. This is throwing your money to the trash, I guess this company doesn’t know what hard works mean to earn some money, they think that because you have a business it’s generating millions like them. This company is a legal thief, stealing money legally from small businesses. If you don’t pay they threaten you to send you to collection, and I hope they sue because I will have to sue them. I have all the conversations and some of the few leads they sent me that were nothing at all. This is the biggest scam don’t fall for them, I wish I would have read the reviews before signing up for this scam.
