If you’re thinking about hiring a geek company to provide tech services in your home, do yourself a favor and take a moment to review the contract terms posted on their website before you welcome them into your home. I found this “gem” on a competitor’s website:
“Client agrees that the service technician is an independent contractor whose services were arranged for by <competitor’s name here> and that <competitor> does not have control over the manner in which the technician performs his or her services.”
So let’s get this straight. The service provider contracts an independent technician to go into your home and do whatever, and the service provider has no responsibility for what that technician does?! Wow!
Just to be clear:
- All Geek Housecalls technicians are employees of Geek Housecalls.
- Geek Housecalls is responsible for the techs,
- Geek Housecalls is responsible for the quality of work,
- and Geek Housecalls is responsible for the satisfaction of our clients!
