For all you Pros out there who have been taken for a ride. I am filing a class-action lawsuit today with my attorney.

Whoever would like to join me please email me at copythatco@***.com. Let's sue the pants off of this scamming organization and try to save our small businesses everybody!!!! I have been working as an office equipment pro for almost 3 months now. At first business was incredible.

The money was rolling in and I moved into a larger office thinking this is my shot to the top. Not! Now I get service calls that are a hundred miles away or more. I am being played.

I also had to load a disposable card to keep them from billing me at will with no explanation. Now I have to sell off most of my copy machines and printers just to pay my business lease.

I have been a copier engineer for 27 years and have never been treated and scammed out of my money like this ever!! The time has come to take Thumbtack down people!!

Their biggest scam is having you set "Targetting Preferences" and Pre-loading your account, so they automatically charge you if someone's request matches your services. I turned it off. Their other rip-off is their "Opportunity" tab.

Not feeling like these leads are legit, after canceling our card on file and hiding my business from the app, we were still charged. These may be leads may be fraudulent and there must be a better way to secure the leads!

It does not appear to be, unfortunately. I started an alternative called Rhiz in response to this along with Yelp's issues (watch The Billion Dollar Bully if you haven't yet).

No fake leads, no review issues. It's about consumer-facing networking to get word of mouth online.

Sign up free at rhizmarket dot com and feel free to email me with questions. -former landscaper, Stuart

Whatโ€™s the email address?

I know that Thumbtack is a greedy bunch of *** suckers. I have seen this Pissed Off Customer up for years now, and see no sign of any activity.

other than seeing comments posted periodically. I'm beginning to think that is site is bordering on a scam.

What is your motive? You haven't done anything except look for clients.

I agree wholeheartedly. I have posted several times asking if there are any updates and got zilch for responses. BTW, i was kicked off this forum, so I am posting this as a guest.

I have also had many issues with Thumbtack, on the consumer side of things. They are clearly not verifying many contractors (which hurts both the legitimate contractors and the consumer).

Parties on both sides of the equation are getting misled.

Thumbtack needs to be stopped. It is a terrible platform and they take no responsibility for issues.

I set a weekly budget and they keep sending me leads about that budget. $50 more so far this week.

Also I block time off my calendar which they say that pros should do if they don't want leads but they keep charging me for leads anyways. Really unethical and no customer support.
