I had Fenix for 1 1/2 years. Although they were expensive, they did what I asked them to do, and the technicians were good. While going through a remodel, I paused my service. During that remodel, a competitor offered the same exact service for 1/2 the price, so I notified Fenix I was canceling my service. What followed was ridiculous. They called non-stop to try and get me to reconsider, sent technicians to my house three different times to try and do a service I told them I no longer need

Very disappointed with this company. They haven’t succeeded with getting rid of bugs, they are impossible to get ahold of. The service person gave me his personal phone number which did not have voice mail, and he did not respond to a text, assuming he no longer works for the company. I tried to cancel and was told I would be charged $250. I left messages on the link they provided and never received an answer, when I talked to the company and told them this they said that was an old link and
