    Why I'm I not given a specific reason for denying my request for refund?
    It is not fair to be charged when a person that request my services never looks at my quote or does not respond to texts and will not answer the phone. This was not done in good faith and I should not be charged for it.

    False Negative Reviews- Yes, Thumbtack Allows These to Stand Without Evidence

    Very disappointed in what thumbtack has become
    We've been on thumbtack for almost 2 years. This used to be a good resource for leads. Sadly, we will not use this platform anymore. I've given a few chances to set if things will get better and all were a bunch of dead le…

    Question about how to expand my Thumbtack profile.
    I am a local personal fitness trainer and want to expand my coaching to virtual coaching. Do I need to set up a new profile or can I use my existing profile so I can set my distance settings?

    Thumbtack Lead Prices Exorbitant
    Over the last 6 months, Thumback has raised lead prices by 50% and allows for far too much competition. I'm on the brink of going out of business, spending thoursands of dollars per month. Is this common?

    Excessive pros contacted
    I would like to know why was this customer allowed to contact 8 seperate pros for the same job. Mind you the lead cost me $102.90 just $1.10 short of my max lead price. Just for this customer to not even respond.
