Lack of operatives caused a six week gap of non attendance.
Following the egg & nest removal, we did not see anyone for 6 weeks. As part of the agreement there should have been regular scheduled visits. I believe it is down to a lack of staff. The operative that eventually attended site was from Bristol which is around two and half hours away.

Hello. Thank you for sharing your feedback to us. I understand the issues that led to break in service to now be resolved. I am sorry for the disruption this caused you previously and is not the level we aim to achieve as a company.
Thank you again for sharing
Professional service
The staff that attended site was polite and professional. Matthew communicated well and was respectful to the environment where we are a busy school with students who were doing exams at the time.
The report was sent over to me promptly and clearly detailed the visit and findings.

Disorganised Chaos and Poor Service
Organised appointment through my home insurance for a residential visit.
First day - waited in, no one turned up and no message or call. I had to chase.
A week later - they text on the morning to cancel
A week later - they text on the morning to cancel again
13th April - guy turned up. He was friendly, did what he needed to do and was informative. Said the next appointment would be 2 weeks’ time. Traps laid.
27th April - no one turns up, with no call or message
28th April - I call to see what is happening and to explain the cancellations and poor service. Was told the message would be passed on and someone would contact me. I am still waiting.
This service is meant to be part of a home emergency package with my insurance but they’ve left it so long between initial appointments that if there are mice in the property causing damage it is on them. Even my home insurer, who said they have no alternative companies nearby, have refunded me my emergency cover cost because of the shambles I have experienced.
No shows, last minute cancellations, and a clear lack of any customer service. Avoid this company if you can.
edit on 05/05 - I provided the additional details NBC requested here, yet I am still waiting for anyone to contact me, despite them saying last Tuesday someone would be in touch and they would look into this as a matter or urgency following this review

Paul from NBC has done a great job at Chelmsford Transfer Station. He was professional, approachable, and clearly knew what he was doing from day one. Thanks to his hard work and practical approach, there has been a noticeable reduction in the rat population, which has made a real difference to the site.
Paul took the time to understand the challenges on site and put sensible measures in place that actually worked. Communication throughout was clear and straightforward, and he followed up to make sure everything stayed on track. A solid bit of work that’s improved conditions. Highly appreciated.

Excellent service from the NBC staff
Excellent service from the NBC staff. They assisted a war veteran with persistent pest issues at his home. Particular thanks to Dean at the Liverpool branch for his high standards of service, care and attention to detail. Much appreciated. Thank you.

Poor attendance to site
Continually this business fails to provide the weekly approved site visits, continually chasing them to obtain update as to when someone will carry out the weekly pest control checks.
