It went about as poorly as it could, since no one ever actually came to my house to clean!
Description of Work: Without a doubt, this is the WORST experience I have EVER had with any company! In March, 2011, I bought a Living Social voucher for 4 hours of housecleaning from Simply Clean. On June 13, I called to make an appt., got their voice mail, and left a message. The next day "Anthony" called back when I was out and left a message that he would call back later in the day - but no call. On June 15, I called and left another message - no return call. On June 16, I called and left another message my - no return call. (In each message I had given my name and telephone number.) That evening, June 16th, I called Living Social and they called the Simply Clean telephone number, got voice mail, and left a message asking Anthony to email me. He emailed the next day, saying he had called me each day and perhaps there was something wrong with my voice mail. I returned his email within 30 minutes, saying I had checked both my caller ID and answering machine and that there had been no call from him since the morning of 6/14 - perhaps he was dialing the wrong number . . . . More importantly, I still had no appt. for my house to be cleaned. The next day he emailed me back and said he HAD been dialing the wrong number and that he would call me that evening. He didn't call until the next day, and we set an appt. for my house to be cleaned on Thursday, June 30, at 12 noon. However, he called the morning of the 30th to say that the cleaning lady was running about 2-21/2 hours late, and asked if she could she come between 2 and 2:30 p.m. Unfortunately I had another appt. at 5 p.m. and had to leave home by 4:30. Since he was obviously sending only one employee, that would not leave enough time for her to do the 4 hours worth of work I was expecting. At that point, I asked to reschedule, and so we did - for 9 a.m. on Friday, July 8. At that point he joked that if something came up, "I will come and clean your house myself." When the cleaning person had not arrived by 9:15 a.m. on July 8, I called Anthony. He said he did not know why she wasn't there, so he called her and called me back, saying "Susan" had had car trouble and wouldn't be able to get to my house (wouldn't it have been reasonable to expect her to call him so that he could have let me know??) After much discussion, I reluctantly made another appt. - for 11:30 a.m. on Monday, July 11. I imagine you can guess the rest of this story; again, the cleaning person did not show up - no calls, no notification. (Oh, and by the way, each time I had a cleaning appt., I had made an appt. the next day to have my carpets shampooed, so rescheduling had to be done not only for housecleaning but for the carpet cleaners, too. They are probably not very happy with me . . . . ) On July 11, I called Living Social and went through this unbelievably frustrating month-long situation I had encountered with Simply Clean - LS, of course, volunteered to refund my money and to turn my information over to their board to review my complaints. I also called "Anthony" many times throughout the day and finally got him around 6 p.m. When I told him that "Susan" had not shown up, he said he did not know that and asked what I wanted him to do. With remarkable restraint, I did not answer that question, but I did tell him I had called Living Social and reported the situation and that I was going to do a review on Angie's List, the BBB, and anywhere else I could to make certain everyone would know how unprofessional and unethical his company is . . . whereupon he hung up on me! Soooo - unless you enjoy wasting time and money on a company that has no interest in doing its job or providing even the smallest scintilla of customer service, then DON'T EVER THINK OF USING SIMPLY CLEAN! (Note: Judging by the other reviews I've read on yelp.com, perhaps I'm the lucky one; it sounds like that even if someone from Simply Clean does get to your house, you've wasted your money because they do such a poor job!)
