I still haven't received my refund after two weeks, and customer service is unresponsive.

2

Appointment Reliability Issues

Around 15% of users experience problems with salons not honoring appointments, leading to wasted time and inconvenience. This issue is exacerbated by the platform's lack of accountability for no-shows or cancellations by service providers.

The app constantly signs me out, and my password doesn't work.

Payment and Refund Complications

Major Highlights of the Week

Inconsistent Refunds
Customers experience significant delays and lack of communication when seeking refunds for canceled or missed appointments, leading to frustration and distrust. The refund process is perceived as slow and unresponsive, with some users waiting weeks without resolution.
It's been over two weeks and I still haven't received my refund; customer service is incredibly slow and unresponsive.
Unreliable Appointments
Users face frequent cancellations or no-shows from service providers, with Treatwell taking no responsibility, undermining trust in the platform. This lack of accountability results in wasted time and unmet expectations for customers.
I arrived at the salon and it was closed; the therapist never came and didn't answer the phone.
Poor Customer Support
The app's customer support is criticized for being ineffective, often providing generic responses without resolving issues, leaving users feeling unsupported. This lack of effective communication and problem-solving diminishes user confidence in the service.
Non-existent useless support that only copies and pastes bits from the app FAQ section.
Account Access Issues
Users report frequent issues with being signed out of their accounts and facing difficulties with password resets, leading to frustration and inability to access services. This technical glitch disrupts the user experience and hinders app functionality.
This thing constantly signs me out and then my password doesn’t work.
Payment Frustrations
The app requires users to repeatedly enter payment details, causing inconvenience and dissatisfaction, especially when opting to pay at the venue. This repetitive process is seen as a barrier to seamless transactions.
Would prefer if you didn’t have to put in your card details every time you wanted to choose pay at the venue.
Lack of Negative Review Option
Customers are unable to leave negative reviews for salons that fail to meet expectations, suggesting a lack of transparency and accountability on the platform. This limitation prevents users from sharing honest feedback and affects the credibility of salon ratings.
There’s no way to leave a negative review to a salon in this situation, which suggests the platform is more interested in protecting itself than supporting customers.

The app constantly signs me out, and my password doesn't work when I try to log back in. It's frustrating and makes the app unusable.
Fhuehne
I booked two massage appointments for Mother's Day, but both were canceled the night before. Treatwell customer service blamed the venue and offered no compensation. If confirmed appointments can't be trusted, what's the point of this app?
Odjuns
Booking treatments through this app is very easy and simple. I love how straightforward it is to use.
