This is completely appalling and a blatant ripoff of Handy. I hope they don't get away with this.

It's the rip-off that put me over the top. I was so pissed I had to write the article.

I'm pretty sure them having the details Homejoy promised wouldn't be accessible is a much bigger deal, at least for me it is. If they have it, who else does?

It's sad, but I guess feel like my data isn't really secure anywhere.

Search for "open the door to better days" and you'll find dozens of these Handy knock-offs.

It isn't. Used to be that two could keep a secret if one were dead. Still true, unless one is a corporation; they can never really die.

Handy is a horrid, racist company. Don't feel sorry for them.

I was searching for that article so I could post it here. Handy is a horrendous company.
