Home Advisor?

Looks like I can add "Home Advisor" to the "never do that" list. Thanks for sharing your experiences.

Report them to the BBB! :D

I hope you didn't sign up for the year long membership with the scumbags.
 
Is everyone still on this same mindset? I've got a bunch of calls from them and had been considering it, that is until I read this thread.

Still shady? Or...anyone made some money using this service?
 
My experience with Home Advisor was horrible, very similar to what Nick shared. They told my partner we'd be able to sort the leads based on the job description the home owner provided, paying only for the ones that looked promising and we wanted to pursue. That was total bullshit. We got charged for leads we didn't pursue based on this assurance and HA didn't feel inclined to refund us or make amends some other way. Canceling was nearly impossible and they still hound us. I would avoid it unless you are able/willing to slog through a bunch of garbage looking for the rare treasure (to be fair we did get a couple of good jobs from HA).
