As of late, I'm not promoting but receiving jobs outside of my area I want to focus on. Is this something Thumbtack has control over now? I tried changing it to 60 miles but it's sending me jobs 100 miles or more. This is wasting my time to even look at these jobs.

I'm not excited to use TT anymore. It has changed so much in the last 2 years. I don't like to promote and end up paying for random leads where they're not even looking to book me. I rather just bid on the ones that I know I'd have a better chance at securing vs shoppers who are just asking for more info.

Wow, I was just charged $60 for a lead who replies back with, " Mandy, my budget is $1000. I am looking for engagement shoot and wedding shoot. Are you able to work out a deal or recommend anyone else you know?" WTF??? I even put in my quote if I'm out of their price range, do not reply back. How is this even fair???

How do I even send you a private message on here?

I was just charged for a wedding lead who accidentally clicked on an automatic reply back which she apologized she didn't mean to. I texted Thumbtack twice and also message them. No response! This is becoming awful to even continue. Might as well invest in Wedding wire if this continues. We don't want to be charged for leads who contact us to see if we're available. What if we're already booked? Still gets charged? What if they're not even someone we'd even work with and wouldn't have quoted, NOW we're being paid for leads we don't even want or care for. How does this help any of the pros???

It's crazy now :( not sure which services you're offering, but mine is wedding photography and $62 per lead is a lot of money WHEN they don't book (fishing for info only).

They keep changing it. WE just don't know anymore what they're going to do ... currently, they're charging us IF the client replies back and will also charge IF the client contact us through a search.

BUT it's not fair if they contact us, and we're not available or they can't afford us, etc. etc. We should have the option to accept and reply back OR decline and refuse without a fee.

mmyang99 · ‎11-14-2018

Exactly. They shouldn't charge US just because a lead message us. IF we choose to reply and have contact, then we can be charged. Lead should also provide as much info as possible, so we can either accept to reply and get charged or decline and not be charged. This is only fair for us if they want to go this route.

Exactly, I agreed.
