After my previous bad experience Fantastic Services offered me a 60dollar penalty or 80 dollar credit if I want to give them another chance. Unfortunately I opted for the credit and decided to give them another chance hoping for a good experience this time but the experience i had with them was far from good and nothing less then horrible.
I booked Fantastic Services for a spring clean, 2 room wall clean, fridge clean and carpet steam clean last week on Tuesday at 9 am. The email said I had to empty the fridge and turn it off 2 hours prior to the time. At 8 45 I recieved the call from them saying that there cleaners are sick and won't be able to come .I was very upset over the same thing happening for the third time and rescheduled for Saturday 12 noon.
On Saturday I received the call that because of the rain cleaners are running behind schedule and will be late. I asked for a specific time as I had other errands to do on Saturday ,I was told 3pm. The guy showed up alone around 3 50pm .
When he came to my apartment he was wearing heavy boots which were all wet ,I requested him to take them off before coming in on the carpet to which he refused saying it's gonna get cleaned anyways. I asked him where was his stuff and team he told me first he will inspect and then they will come in ( this had not been communicated to me before) I said ok. He walked all around my carpeted place with his wet boots on took pics of my home and fridge. And went out staying i am right outside your door I need to send pics to the company .
10 minutes later I received the call from Fantastic Services saying that you requested 2 walls not 2 rooms and the fridge is not empty. We can not clean two rooms because we charged you for 2 walls only. I told them when I booked online it asked me for the number of rooms for wall cleaning how can you expect one room to have one wall only. They guy on the other end argued that no we ask for number of walls on our website while I told him that the website asks for number of rooms and a room has 4 walls had it asked for the number of walls I would have put in a different number . He kept insisting that no it says number of walls on our website , i have screenshot of the Web page clearly shows that it asks for number of walls. Furthermore he also insisted that the fridge is not empty it has ice in it . I told him there is no ice its a non frost fridge and I can empty it instantly I didn't empty it earlier because its not easy emptying a fridge in a household and getting cancelled upon repeatedly.
Ultimately I told him to forget the walls and go ahead with the rest of the cleaning as they had already wasted a lot of my time and days and were not ready to accept.
15 min later he calls me back saying the cleaning team has already left your place and can not come back today. I was stunned the guy told me he is stepping outside talking to the company .
After all this I clearly told him that I am done with this company and do not wish to have their services in the future and asked for a refund . I was refunded my balance amount . The credit from the previous experiences was not refunded.
My experience with this company has been horrible they are extremely unprofessional and liars giving no value to other peoples time. They not only left me extremely upset but also wasted a lot of my time. Apart from that I felt a stranger walked into my home took pictures and left.
I would never recommend Fantastic Services to anyone stay away from them. Its an extremely unprofessional team .
Booked them before the Christmas holidays for a deep clean of my place, I booked a week ahead and scheduled my work around it. They were supposed to come in on Tuesday morning around 9 am , I recieved a call around 9 20 that there car had broken down and they were not sure if they could come. I said I can wait even if its another 2 -3 hours but they called back saying it's gonna take long so they had to reschedule .I understood there situation and was very accommodating with them.
They rescheduled the services to Friday, on Wednesday I recieved a text from them that their team has decided not to work on Friday and they can reschedule. When I tried calling the number it went straight to voicemail!
Highly unethical and unprofessional! Cancelled a pre booked service twice!!! didn't they plan their schedule earlier?? Shouldn't have booked and cancelled!!
They even charged my card the moment I booked with them for the first time. Their customer representatives need some training on how to deal with customers. Wasted 15 days ,I couldn't even get any other cleaners during the holidays .Ended up doing deep cleaning on the Christmas eve myself.
Edit 12 January:
After I posted this review the fantastic team got in touch with me they had a
professional polite tone in the email and apologised for my experience , they also offered me a reverse cancellation fee or a credit if I wish to give them another chance. I got the credit and will give them another chance hopefully it would be better this time.
