Signature Touch Concierge is a professional company that has proof of ALL below comments for anyone wanting to view. Below is a lengthy response that will not only clear up any of the above false accusations, but also provide a detailed timeline and service record history to better inform all readers. Please feel free to contact us directly if you have any additional questions, need further clarification and/or need would like records. Signature Touch Concierge was originally contacted by Member on February 8, 2012 to provide weekly laundry services for her entire family. We replied to the client immediately and set up a free consultation for Saturday, February 11, 2012. During that meeting, we confirmed that she needed laundry services, as there was laundry piled up throughout the entire house. Signature Touch Concierge insisted that Member provide us with detailed instructions, as every homeowner is different and likes their laundry laundered differently. The only requirement she had was that every shirt with a collar and dress clothing be taken to the dry cleaners after a full trash bag had accumulated, no exceptions. We started providing this service for Member on February 15, 2012. My staff and I were in charge of collecting the laundry throughout the entire house, color sorting all items, washing, drying and putting away all instructed laundry. On our second day, she instructed that all pre-bagged dry cleaning, that was bagged, waiting and ready by the client, to the local dry cleaners. We dropped off all three large kitchen trash bags to the cleaners, as requested. The dry cleaning owner made us aware that there was many items awaiting pick-up before that new order. We told Member and she was aware of the high dry cleaning bill. Member picked up the dry cleaning herself and became angry about the $700 bill. She made us aware of this bill and seemed angry with both my staff and I, as there were items in the bag that she stated that did not belong there. I reminded her that all we did was put the requested bags she filled in our vehicle and transport them to the appropriate location, period. She apologized and this issue never was brought up again until the above review, which is false. She never “approved” or went through the dry cleaning. Once we personally started the sorting process, nothing was ever dropped off or picked up that should have been laundered at home. If fact, Member was extremely pleased with our services. She loved that my staff and I provided additional services free of charge while we were waiting for the laundry to finish cycling. We tidied up the entire home, made the beds, cleaned the kitchen and completed various organizational tasks throughout the home. She praised us for these services as well as our laundry services and folding skills. Due to our performance, Member increased our weekly hours at the present location, added another location in the city and then added additional tasks to both locations. Additional tasks included, housekeeping services, major organizational tasks, errand services and various personal assistant services. Furthermore, we took over housekeeping services from a company that was lacking in both performance and reliability. Her first cleaning was $220, due to the fact that there had not been a cleaning service in the home for over six weeks and the house was extremely dusty, dirty and needed a lot of TLC. Member was extremely pleased with the deep clean service. In fact, she then requested weekly housekeeping services. Due to the fact that Signature Touch Concierge provided the deep cleaning service, we knew the weekly upkeep would be done properly and easier to maintain, thus reducing the price to $150 per session. She agreed and these services were performed weekly, without fail and complaints. Our housekeeping services went over and beyond that of any other local company. At no additional charge our housekeeping team cleaned the outside large patio and tennis court during every session (weather permitting) including using an electrical blower to clean off all debris, leaves and dirt off of every chair, table and cement ground service. Additionally, she added large organizing tasks and projects. Member requested large organizational tasks at each location. Signature Touch Concierge does not and will not just “shove items in drawers”. We pride ourselves in thorough performance. Every drawer, cabinet, and closet was entirely emptied out, a new organization system was put in place and then items were reorganized, including but not limited to, refolding, stacking, color coding, matching and sorting like items. We also maintained our systems during our five hour laundry shifts. If she was not pleased with our exceptional organizing skills, I do not know why she continued to ask for additional tasks and continued this particular service for over four months. In fact, she praised both my staff and I often via phone, email and text. Signature Touch Concierge continued to provided various services for Member. She called on us day and night to provide additional services. Some examples include, pulling strings to gain access to a sold out resort hotel during a high profile function and holiday, finding a nursing aide after her family members were in a serious car accident, purchasing equipment and relocating the boys bedroom downstairs for the comfort and mobility and finding and managing vendors for the home (i.e. handy man, window cleaners, rug cleaners, etc) and provided waiting services during the repairs or cleanings. We completed all tasks ahead of schedule and was praised for our responsiveness, punctuality, professionalism and performance. Signature Touch Concierge starting having major issues with Member when it came to payments and our terms of service. We seen signs of her budgeting and financial problems, but choose to ignore them, which was a huge mistake for us. We are a professional company who provides punctual services for all of our clients and expect to be paid according to our terms of service. This did not happen with Member. Not only did she expect us not to bill for extra services and days she requested, but she did not pay for present packages and services on time. There was always an excuse, reason or something coming in the way. Additionally, when Member did pay for services her payment methods were not always honored. Three checks were not honored due to insufficient funds and five credit card transactions were declined by our credit card merchant. When she was made aware of this, she did not resolve the matter in a timely manner. To date, she has yet to pay the fees associated with this reckless behavior. Furthermore, Member continued to breech our terms of service that she agreed and was reminded of frequently. She continued to modify and cancel services without notice. Our cancellation policy is as follows: “Signature Touch Concierge understands that unexpected events happen. If you need to modify or cancel a service, we kindly ask that you provide us with at least 48 hours notice. Cancellations less than 48 hours will result in the full price of services being charged. All charges do not include cancellation charges for third party vendors, if applicable.” She never provided us with 48 hours notice. Most times it was only hours. The last straw came on June, 26, 2012. Member modified her package without notice once again, breeching her terms of service. She then left me a check for half of July’s package and requested that we hold her check until Friday. Our accountant said we simply cannot do this anymore. I contacted her. She then changed the payment date again. She then asked me to hold her check until the following week, making her account fall further behind. I refused to do so and told her that we can no longer except late payments and crediting her for services that does not meet our terms of service. She became angry and then cancelled services, again failing to give proper notice for the next several services and July’s package. She then claimed that she was always paying us and that we were always requesting money. She never paid for her package, services and errand purchases on time. She would pay for past due services when current services were due and then the next invoice would come in for the new services. Due to the fact nothing was ever on time, I guess it did seem like something was always due. Member’s brought up June’s payments. Her actual June package was $1501.99, which was paid four days late past our grace period. Furthermore, she did make a payment on June 20th, like stated. She finally made a payment in the amount of $1,080.12. This was NOT for any package and especially not for July. This payment was for purchases that were purchased, as requested by Member, from our business account. She requested a long list of items at Bed Bath and Beyond, Kmart and BJs. This also included 10 service hours to complete extra projects as requested. Once again, Member frequently requested additional services that were outside of her monthly package. She did not pay me any additional money for June services. All “extra” money as she calls it is for purchases we made as requested. She expected us not to charge her for the items. We do not purchase hundreds to thousands of dollars in products for any client for free. There is a charge for our time and for the product. Any business would need reimbursed for items purchased as well as for their time. Regarding the requested refund, Signature Touch Concierge does not owe her any money. She modified and then canceled services, without giving proper notice. Due to our policy, full price of services will be charged. We do not issue refunds when our terms of service are broken. In fact, she still owes us money for additional hours, modifying a package without notice and then canceling services without notice. Not to mention the bounce check fees and late charges. We sent her an invoice asking her to submit payment immediately. All inquiries have gone unanswered. Signature Touch Concierge is a professional business and my staff and I do not appreciate how we were treated. We have always kept our side of the agreement and continued to provide top notch services, however she continued to bounce checks and have credit card payments denied, as well as modify services without proper notice. We have proof of all invoices and payments made by her for our records and well as proof of these false claims. This false report is unprofessional, unethical and is considered slanderous. I have never had something like this happen. Most of the customers claims are false and can be proven through invoices, emails and text messages.
