We only had them come once a month but I just called and told them that we didn't need their services anymore. I did tell them that I was unhappy with their services and left it at that. They didn't have a key but they did have our garage code. I need to remind DH again to change that. . . </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/giving-cleaning-team-notice#post-2052469 Tue, 03 Feb 2015 14:12:30 +0000 Freckles 2052469@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lamariniere: I thought you liked your cleaning lady! I swear sometimes i feel like Emily Gilmore...</p> <p>@Mrs.Someone: @mrsjyw: Okay, good to know. She doesn't have a key (i'm always home) so i'll just let her know after she finishes a clean. Thanks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/giving-cleaning-team-notice#post-2052271 Tue, 03 Feb 2015 13:02:34 +0000 Mrs.Someone 2052271@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Depends, do they have your house key?</p> <p>I've always avoided giving out a key, because it makes it easier to stop using the cleaners. I don't think you need to give notice, especially since it's only been a few months. Just let them know that you don't need cleaning for a little bit, and leave it at that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/giving-cleaning-team-notice#post-2052269 Tue, 03 Feb 2015 13:02:24 +0000 mrsjyw 2052269@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did this a few months back, I just emailed them after our monthly cleaning and let them know we didn't need services. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/giving-cleaning-team-notice#post-2052164 Tue, 03 Feb 2015 12:36:00 +0000 lamariniere 2052164@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am kind of contemplating doing this too, but for different reasons. I think your mat leave is an excellent excuse! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/giving-cleaning-team-notice#post-2052149 Tue, 03 Feb 2015 12:32:44 +0000 Freckles 2052149@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Two girls have been cleaning our house for a few months now, and i'm thinking of switching to my neighbour's cleaner ($10/hour cheaper). For what i pay, i'm not happy with how slow they work as it means that they don't clean everything. I had already extended their time by an hour, and all of a sudden they still can't get everything done. They take their sweet time.</p> <p>They come every other week - am i obligated to give notice? Can i just tell them i no longer need their services because i am on mat leave? </p>
