I just had some work completed by BeeCatchers located at 17216 Saticoy Ave., in Van Nuys. I set an appointment up originally and they never showed up. I gave them another chance because they had a good price. The service appears to have been completed to my satisfaction, but it is still very early to tell, as there are still a lot of bees. However, the customer service from Nicole (who I believe is the owner) was awful. She yelled at me over the phone and would not let me speak. The service was completed on Friday afternoon, and we had agreed to a payment by credit card once the service was completed. I did not get back to my house until late on Friday, and did not check my messages over the weekend. She had called me wanting payment on Saturday. Not a problem, but they left an invoice and I was just going to pay by check. She called me on Monday morning and yelled at me and would not even let me speak. I paid in full at that time, not believing that I had just gotten yelled at for not paying a bill, when the work was completed late on Friday and it was Monday morning at 10 AM when we spoke. When paying, she said that I lied to her, and that I ""hope the credit card payment goes through"". I have been completely shaken up over this conversation, to the point that I have written a review, which I would never do otherwise. Be wary of Nicole. I was exceptionally nice when they did not show up to my house, but in return, I got an earful when they had to wait over a weekend for their payment.
