Horrible Company!

Horrible Company!
First off, the actual service is sketchy at best. I had a few show up over my year long contract that actually looked like they did work, while the majority were here at best 12 minutes. Aside from the actual service, just try and cancel your service when your contract is up! Customer service is out of Guam or somewhere obscure. I tried calling the actual Fife office number and still ended up their rotten Customer service. Per my contract, my card was charged 71.63 every month tho they only come out every other month. For some reason my charge went to 71.70, 7 cents up. I'll deal with that but in May 2026, my card was charged 78.40. out of 3 calls asking why, 2 reps told me I was charged twice for tax. How does that even happen. I say fine, credit my card back the difference. Can't do that. Instead they credit my Aptive account 71.70 for JUNE 2026 when I have told them multiple times that I have no intention on continuing with this horrible company!! My card gets charged on the 4th of every month. My contract was signed on 6-5-25. If I call on June 3, 2026 to cancel to avoid my card being charged again, $199 cancelation fee!! Unfricken believable! Their remedy - change my billing date from the 4th of the month to the 8th, that way I can call on the 5th to cancel my contract per Juan! This is Pest Control PEOPLE!! You could get out of buying a car contract easier than this company! I am not a betting person but I will all but guarantee you, my card will be charged in June '26. They are so desperate to take every penny they can from you they change the amount of money they charge to your card at their pleasure even tho you signed a contracted monthly amount and then make it near impossible to discontinue service with them. STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY!! Your nerves and peace of mind will thank me later.

Hi Dionne,

We’re very sorry to hear about your experience and how frustrating this has been, especially regarding billing changes, cancellation concerns, and your overall confidence in the service. That’s not the experience we want for anyone at Aptive.

We also understand your concerns about pricing consistency and the cancellation process. Feedback like this is important, and we take it seriously so it can be reviewed and properly handled internally. Your experience should never feel unclear or difficult to resolve.

If you’re open to it, please reach out to socialmedia@goaptive.com directly so we can review your account in detail and better understand everything that happened. We appreciate you taking the time to share this, even though we clearly missed the mark here.

Representative rang doorbell at 7pm Memorial Day.
This is a gated community with signs that solicitation is not allowed.

Rep implied HOA allowed him to solicit and provided names of some residents that used their service which is creepy in itself.

Reminded 'no solicitation' and would be reported. He said he is here at the direction of the company. Likely out of the Fife Office. Asked to leave card and he declined.

I have picture from another resident's door camera earlier in the day so he has been in the community soliciting for many hours.

Hi there,

Thanks for taking the time to share this, and I’m truly sorry for the experience you described. What you’ve outlined regarding after-hours contact, entering a gated community with posted no solicitation signage, and the way information was communicated is not aligned with how Aptive expects our representatives to engage in communities.

We also understand how uncomfortable it would feel to have personal references mentioned during a doorstep interaction, and we take this seriously. Please reach out to socialmedia@goaptive.com directly so we can review this in detail with our local leadership and make sure it is properly handled. At Aptive, we’ve got this handled, and we appreciate you bringing it to our attention so we can address it quickly and appropriately.

RUDE Representative

We had a rep come to our 3 door times in one evening, the last being after 8pm. I finally went to the door to tell him to stop knocking and his answer to me was that I should have answered the first time! How rude! He continued to be very rude. I would NEVER use this company just due to this representative.

Hi Carol,

Thank you for taking the time to share this. I’m very sorry for the repeated visits and especially for the rude interaction you experienced. That’s not the level of professionalism or respect we expect from anyone representing Aptive, and I understand why that left a negative impression.

At Aptive, we aim to make every interaction respectful and handled the right way, and it’s clear we fell short here.

If you’re willing, please reach out to socialemedia@goaptive.com directly with any additional details so we can locate the sales representative involved and fully review what happened.

Lack of communications with customer.

Didn't call in advance. Didn't ring or knock on my door to speak to me. Sprayed the perimeter without knowing that was NOT where the ant infestation is!
Doesn't your company have a technician protocol?

Thank you for taking the time to share this with us, Gwheil. I’m sorry to hear the visit didn’t include communication before starting the service, and that the treatment didn’t align with where you’re seeing the ant activity. I can understand how frustrating that would feel.

If you’re willing, I’d like to take a closer look at the service notes and what was identified during the visit so this can be properly reviewed against your concerns and expectations. Please email socialmedia@goaptive.com with your service address and any details about what you’re observing inside the home. I’ll make sure it gets handled to your satisfaction!
