❗ The #1 Customer Complaint in Rhode Island Service Reviews (And How to Fix It)

When Rhode Islanders leave bad reviews for local service businesses — whether it’s a plumber in Cranston or a stylist in Warwick — there’s one complaint that shows up more than any other:

“They never called me back.”


“I reached out but didn’t hear from anyone.”


“Left a message, no response.”

It’s not about pricing. It’s not about the work quality.


📞 It’s about poor communication — especially missed calls and slow response times.

🚨 Why Unreturned Calls Are Costing You Business


Customers today expect immediate responses. When they don’t hear back within minutes (not hours), they just move on to the next company in Google.


And let’s face it — if you're working on a job, cutting hair, or on the road, you can’t always answer the phone. But if nobody responds quickly?

You lose that customer.


You lose the review.


You lose the referral.

📍 This Isn’t Just a Guess — It’s in the Reviews


A quick scan of 1-star reviews across Rhode Island shows it clearly:

“Left three voicemails — no one ever called me back.”

“Texted to make an appointment. Never got a response.”

“Tried calling during open hours — just rang and rang.”

These are reviews left on:

Salons in East Providence

HVAC companies in Warwick

Landscapers in Narragansett

Cleaning services in Woonsocket
