Angi leads Home Advisor The Angie lead system doesn’t provide quality leads.
After using Angie leads for 2 to 3 months, I have realized it is a scam. The leads you are sent are often hours old, they are often people who don’t know what professional they need and the only system that promises to send you fresh leads, though they are not, automatically charges you for every lead you are sent regardless of its quality.
Other than automatically being charged, you can use opportunity leads, which it turns out are ones which have been rejected by other contractors so they are always old/outdated and often well outside your service area. The system is sold to you under the guise that you always get to choose which leads you want. This is false and once you have signed up, the information in their fine print shows the truth is you’re charged without getting to choose.
The final straw was when I called to cancel my account they inform you that also within their fine print is a 72 hour limit on any refunds on your funding deposits. This means you must determine within three days time whether the entire Angie leads system is a worthwhile marketing expense. In my case, I was leaving to go on vacation so the sales lady happily suggested we turn off the leads for two weeks until I was back.
She knew that meant there was simply no way I would ever be able to get a refund because there was no way I would be able to evaluate the system if I wasn’t using it. Regardless, I know of no business system which can be properly evaluated in this short of a time frame for its financial and marketing efficacy. Spend your marketing funds elsewhere.
