  ****** ****** not my problem and I was told we would not be charged. They said they would escalate the issue and someone would get back with me. No one returned my call and a few weeks later another bill came in the mail stating my account is past due. After my husband and I have spoken with multiple representatives over the past few months they are demanding full payment for a second dumpster, claiming we put more tons in the second dumpster than would have fit in a 20-yard container. We had no way to know what would or wouldn't fit in a 20-yard dumpster since we only received a 15-yard dumpster and then another 15-yard dumpster. This argument from the company is ridiculous. The fact that they admitted their mistake up front but want to blame the customer and fully charge me for a second dumpster is outrageous. I want the charge to be fully removed, or at minimum, to negotiate a much lower price if they continue to demand full payment, as this is their mistake.

  To whom it may concern, 

  My name is *******, and I am a supervisor here at the corporate headquarters of Win Waste Innovations ************** 

  I am writing in response to your complaint. 

  The 20 yd shown on our website is a model of our generic Win Waste Branded container. Do to acquiring other companies over the years, ***, ******, Big dog, City Carting ***. We have gathered quite a supply of 20yds that are not exactly those dimensions. The 20 yd pictured is what we would consider a 20 yd " Long". It gives you the length but shortens you on the wall height. Vs a 20yd short (High ) that would short you on the length but give you high walls to accommodate for 20yds of cubic space. I did confirm with our ops team, that you in fact received a 20yd container. It was not a 15yd as you claimed. Our **** on the phone, whom you have spoken to would not have known how to exactly identify what was brought to you without specific help from our team out in ** and what supply they had in stock. 

  With that being said, I would like to extend a credit/adjustment of the remaining amount on the account of $392.58. My thought is, is that if you had been given the exact container you ordered, you may not have needed the second can and there for, wouldn't of had to call as many times as you did. So, please ignore the invoice and we will look to correct this matter moving forward. 

  As a side note, please keep in mind, if you should order from Win Waste Innovations again, which I hope you do, to please reference or keep in mind, 20yd Long or 20 yd Short. This will help us and you identify a bit better and make sure all of these issues are prevented moving forward. 

   

  If you should have any questions, please give me a call at ************

  ***************************

  I will only accept this agreement if the $66 is taken off the bill. You charged us and turned it over to a collection agency for ******** February and March. My wife called in December twice once she talked to someone, and second time no one answered. She had to wait to call after the 1st of January because of the holiday. I never knew about canceling and being charged for a month you never picked up. I should been given back the two weeks in December 2023 that you never picked up also.

  come. I don't have money to throw away for a service I didn't receive.

  To whom it may concern, 

  my name is *******, and I am a supervisor here at Win Waste Innovations. 

  After review of our call logs and documentation, ******************************* called in on the 3rd of January to cancel services. upon listening to the recorded call, **************** advised our care agent that she did not want to deal with us any more after " Multiple Missed Pickups". After several attempts to explain to the customer what had happened, our agent advised that because she wouldn't allow us to correct the problem, that we would follow our cancellation process, as we do for all customers, and cancel their service for the end of the month. The account was closed down on 1/31/2024 as advised to the customer.  

  Due to the nature of the cancellation, the customer should have been responsible for all billing leading up to the 1/31/2024 termination date, as any other customer would be with any other subscription based services.  

  Our website states that call cancellations will take effect for the end of the month and services would still be available up until the end of that month. 

  However, as a courtesy, to hopefully satisfy the former customers needs, I will submit a credit on their behalf to get the amount pulled back from the third party and adjusted off the account. 

  this can take up to 90 days to do and approve. 

   

  thank you

  Acct # 33-36881
  
  Cancelled service via phone on 1-4 because they picked up trash from neighbors but skipped us even though we were paid in advance. Follow up conversations as follows:
  (3) emails on 1-8
  An email on 2-29
  (2) emails on 3-14
  An email on 3-19
  
  Received an invoice last week for ($50). I would like for them to refund all the payments that were made in advance as well as the month of January. Should be around $125. Oh, and pickup their container from behind my house. I have put it out twice and it was not picked up.

  This past Monday, October 6, my trash pick-up was missed. I reached out to WIN Waste via text on Tuesday and received a response stating that my trash pick-up would be rescheduled for Wednesday. First thing Wednesday, I sent a reminder and asked to confirm that my trash would be picked up. I live in a subdivision where we are not permitted to leave dumpsters at the road for extended time. The representative assured me again that the trash would be collected. As the day progressed, I reached out again because the truck still hadn’t arrived. The representative informed me that they work until 7pm and that they would be there to pick up my trash. My trash was never picked up. I reached out Thursday and they said the driver was not available on Wednesday but that he would be there on Thursday. I was refused a bill credit because they said that they were performing a “service recovery pick-up”. Thursday, about five minutes before the close of their business, I sent another text to let them know that nobody had arrived, but that text went unanswered. Today, Friday, October 6th, I reached out again. Yet again, I was assured that a driver would be here today. It is now 4:09pm and nobody has shown. I’ve had dogs trying to get into my overflowing trash at this point. I’ve communicated that I can’t wheel my dumpster back and forth each day due to a procedure, so I need them to keep their word. It is horrible customer service to over-promise and under-deliver, day after day, for an entire week. I spent two hours on an unanswered hold today when I called, and had to leave a message. I have a screenshot of the hold time. I’m frustrated because they bought out the other service contracts locally, so they are taking advantage of their customers, since there is no other company we can give our business to. I would like to see this company held accountable for providing better service as many in my community are experiencing the same.

  Good morning,

  After receiving this complaint from the BBB and Customer, we have tried several times to reach out to the customer. My Residential Supervisor Tried to reach out to her on 12/6/23 and was able to at this time leave a VM message. We have received no response back. I also have attempted to reach out to her by phone as well on 12/14 and 12/15 as another member of leadership by phone same days, and we were met with a VM box that was full and we were unable to leave a VM message for her. We have determined that there was a laps in service and since there has been no communication from the customer, we did go ahead and put in a free month of service for her in the hopes of elevating the frustration with the laps in service and to let her know we intend to service her as promised moving forward. 

  Thank you
