“We have an account we no longer wish to service – it doesn’t pay enough for all the work required.
“We gave them notice that we would no longer be working that account, but they say we can’t quit it until they find someone to fill it. I don’t think they are trying very hard. “

“These guys underbid all the competition, so low that no one can make any money. If you buy a franchise from Janpro, read their contract before anything. Don’t gave them any money until you read the contract. You can Google them and read anything on Ripoff report to see what their former franchise people have to say about Janpro. I agree, they pay so low there is no way you can hire anybody, so low you will have to hire illegal immigrants to work for nothing because you can pay enough for the minimum wage because they bid so low onthe job and suckered you to buy the account because the cleaning is getting done for nothing…. Search and research if this business is for you, it is not a 100K business like you think, it takes a lot of work to earn that.”

“Beware, Beware, Beware!!!!!!!!! Jan Pro franchise is a huge rip off. The business tactics they use are very deceitful. They lie to you to get you to buy into the business and AFTER you have given your money to them you find out the truth. You will not make money unless you work 24 hours a day and do all the work yourself. Find an ongoing lawsuit and join in if you can or start your own lawsuit against them to get your money back.”

“I to got rippedoff by jan-pro. They got me accounts that payed so low that I was making less than minimum wage. Since I posted my Phone number on another site I have been geting Tons of calls from people all over the country. I cant believe how many people from all over the country have called me. I even received a call from Canada. It’s really sad how jan-pro keeps ripping off so many people and so many families. What is really sad is when they ripoff single Moms. Now many of us from all over the country are getting together and we are taking legal action. I’m now a member of a National Class Action Lawsuit.”

I am a retired teacher. I’ve been looking for an opportunity to start my own business. The two franchises that I’ve looked at so far are Jantize and Jan-Pro. They seem to be basically the same, although Jan-Pro seemed to be more aggressive. The Jan-Pro guy actually told me that I would never get rich doing this! What?! I’m not expecting to “get rich” but it didn’t seem that he was concerned about my financial growth in this business. My impression of franchises so for is that you pay them money so that you can make LESS money than you paid in. I think that they are just hiring janitors….janitors who pay money to join the “club”. I’m very negative on all of this cleaning franchise business now. I think that it’s all a scam. I need some opinions on this!
I have had a Jan Pro franchise for 3 years now and it has not been successful. I invested $9,000 into a PF and have not received the full business from Jan Pro. Their scheme is to transfer/move cleaning contracts amongst the franchisees. DO NOT INVEST IN THIS BUSINESS!! I’ve made a big mistake!!
I also bought the bussiness thru Pleasonton CA and they are nothing but racist, liars and rob people. They harass me and others and the CEO just sits there and does nothing about it even after complaining and the GM Grant Pollard is such a liar I have prove to prove in court that they are doing unfair bussiness and have breached their own contract so many times. I have all the harrsements on writing thru email to show in court. Grant Pollard also make fake emails from customers to put a new team in so they can charge them after they made money on me. I also have prove of that. Just waiting on my lawyer to put all this together and sent a summon to Grant Pollard And David Rhodes for running a unfair bussiness and harassing us. Also got up to 5 other franchise to as witness about them. Can’t wait to drag them court.
Please anyone thinking about buying thru Jan Pro don’t do it. Also I lost my car and my whole saving cox of this company. Jan Pro pleasonton,Ca. Even customers are taking there bussiness esle where, they are becoming aware of their ways. They don’t even respond to my customers inquiries if they want a special done. They get back to me after few days later and don’t even answers questions
I am not an franchise owner but was currently working for one. I am no longer with this company after one week due to the fact that the owner could not afford to pay me 50 dollars a day for 2 accounts, she said Janpro came in with a bid so low it is ridiculous. How are you going to have someone clean a large building and not even be able to pay them..
