has anyone here worked for this company? if so can i have the pro's / con of this company?

Yes I have worked for them. They pay you $100 dollar inspection/set-up fee, which is fine unless you normally charge more than that. Also they expect a percentage of the total gross from the job. You have to wait for them to mail you the initial payment when you could normally collect it that day from the client. This may or may not be a concern for some.

Bruce Hunt is a ___ ____ leech that preys on the gullible and has zero control on the quality of the service he claims to offer. He is a festering pus filled boil on the crusty stinking rectum of this industry.
I have personally delivered at least two dog cussings to him directly. He is a ripoff artist par excellance and will rip both the client and NWCO a new one in a heartbeat.
If your business model relies on padding your fees to pay for the lead from a flim flam man then you meed to go back to guerilla marketing 101.

Wow thanks Warrior! I checked out those rip off report links. I wont be doing business with them anymore. The half dozen times Ive worked with them it has always been a hassle anyway.

you are give business to someone in your area, and you are only hurting yourself,,,,,,

Warrior, you've got to try and not hold back, tell us how you REALLY feel about this guy! I've got to tell you man, you do have a way with words. Made me laugh out loud and made my day!!

huh?

They send me jobs every other day by email and I just don't answer them . I need more than a percentage of a hundred bucks with gas close to 4 bucks , there a guy from wi doing the same thing but his service is 275.00 and 75 per animal . Thinks its called American animal or USA animal don't remember . Hey if you need work some is better then none , lots of lazy people around just sitting on there rear ends they could be out picking up pop bottles or something . Some is better then none

lol I was thinking the same thing

U nited is getting the name recognition,,,,,,,,Not you

(good to see you on the same "page" Nick,,,,,,,,,,)

That's why I said no , people could just call local . If I didn't have work I would do it . I have 5 kids to feed and a very bad fishing habit to feed

I have a feeling u.s. animal control is cut from the same cloth.I just think there are many better ways to drum up business

thank you all for the info on this . i am new and want to build a good rep . thanks again ... Stones Wildlife Damage Control....

Last time the called me they wanted me to give them 30 % LOL lotta money for picking up the phone

The only time I actually talked to them they were going to pay me $100 for 30 min. inspection, then if I took the job I was to double my fee's and send them half. I believe he was operating under a different business name then. I told them I wouldn't treat my customers that way nor would I risk my reputation working for them. Asked them to leave me alone, now it's a new business name and the calls are coming in again. I knew who it was as soon as I seen the Utah phone number.

Same deal with the $100 for 30 min deal 30 min isnt near enough time alot of time. I still get their calls but after some butt chewing they hang up before saying anything, I think they must have something pop up on a screen or realize they called the wrong company only after the phone rings.

He doesnt call me or refer leads to me anymore.... hahaha I do get referrals from other companies from them....

Are these the guys that keep calling me saying that they are doing work in my area and are looking for people to help? It's always a vague message and they ask you to push a button to talk to them?

Thank You for participating in United Wildlife's Customer Referral Program.

I did one and felt very guilty afterwards because of the price charged to the elderly customer. Good initial rapport with the customer with fast and friendly service on my part. There was a real animal issue that I resolved but upon follow up for exclusion work she was very upset because she thought the check she wrote me covered the $195 inspection fee. When she figured out that fee was charged to her credit card she turned my exclusion estimate over to her local handyman and said she no longer needed my services. UW solicited me on several more occasions which I repeatedly declined and finally asked to be removed from their call list. Then I saw my name being used in a generic fashion offering services that I did not offer and asked AGAIN to be removed from their call list and to remove my info from the web ad. It required multiple attempst to them to stop calling me and it finally stopped. Not a big fan of his business model.
