My gripe is that Thumbtack is supporting illegal contractors. I pay a lot of money to operate in NYC as well as spending a lot of time updating licenses, Using NYC's 12 page Contract, having my men Osha certified, Paying for Disability, Compensation , General Liability and most of all Roofing Insurance which is very expensive.

Too many illegal contractors are already giving legit contractors a bad name. We don't need web sites who promote so called HANDYMEN who are unlicensed and uninsured.

And that goes also for all the firemen who think their pillars of the community and can work without licenses and Insurance also. How do I join a class action against Thumbtack???

Reactivating my account

4.0
My account was deactivated because of a unsatisfied customer I called thumbtack to find out why my account had need deactivated. Even though I had gotten an email with the customer concerns I couldnt read the entire email to address the concerns. Thumbtack is in the process of having the email and link resent to me so that I can respond properly to the customer and have my account reactivated.

User's recommendation: Respond to customer concerns in a more timely manner.

I need to talk to an agent

1.0
Thumbtack - I need to talk to an agent
No response at all from thumbtack, they make it impossible to talk to a person. The only option given is to text, which no one replied. They charged my card $37 for a so called perfect match that I did not pick. They take the luxury to pick a lead for you and charge your account without the client deciding whether they want that lead or not, thats a complete rip off. Will never again use thumbtack. Take people money for bogus leads thats given to 3 other contractors and make it impossible to try to get that money by not making a live agent available

User's recommendation: Don’t recommend.

I was scammed for $510 from a contractor I hired on Thumbtack. They did nothing to help me. They also continued to allow this same contractor advertise on their website.

Reactivate my account

1.0
They deactivated my account for violating terms of service. They are accusing me of creating an erroneous account in addition to the original I signed up to use. I have no idea how my account got linked to some bogus account that they are accusing me of adding. I still have money on credit with them and they have stated they are not reopening my account. I'm beyond frustrated as I have no idea how to fix a problem that I didn't create. I suggested the problem is internal with their software and to fix the problem then reinstate my account.

User's recommendation: don't sign on to use their service.

A thumbtack professional let someone *** my account

Someone changed my account information and I want it back to mine. I talked with a professional that said he fixed it and he did not

The LEADS I receive and other stuff

yes, im an apparent PRO videographer on THUMBTACK. that said, I have real issue with the fact, that IF a potential LEAD contacts me for further info? and after contacting them back, IF.... they send me a simple NO thanks? yet thumbtack ends up charging me "out the nose"? for a simple NO thanks response? Seriously? unreal! and THAT'S way, I haven't PITCHED ANY inquire out of hundreds of requests for service. further something is very wrong when thumbtack doesn't even provide a CS ICON to directly contact CS. seriously?that I was forced to GOOGLE our damn email? seriously. whats...with that!?

User's recommendation: Please give production companies a chance and accept fair prices. It's only the fair thing to do.
