## What the record says about canceling Brooks Pest Solutions

Company terms and statements first, then customers’ reports. Each links to its source; quotes are the source’s exact words.

- Minimum initial term of 12 months for every service agreement (company terms of service, §13). (sources [3](https://brookspestsolutions.com/terms-of-service/)) Quote: “all service agreements are subject to a minimum initial term of twelve (12) months.”
- Early-cancellation fee before the end of the 12-month term equals the full initial-service discount or promotional pricing; no dollar amount is stated in the terms. Unused re-services and guarantees are forfeited. (sources [3](https://brookspestsolutions.com/terms-of-service/)) Quote: “If the customer elects to terminate the agreement prior to the completion of the initial 12-month term, an early cancellation fee will apply. This fee shall be equal to the full amount of any initial service discount or promotional pricing provided at the start of the agreement”
- Binding AAA consumer arbitration in the county of service, with jury-trial and class-action waiver (terms §9). (sources [3](https://brookspestsolutions.com/terms-of-service/)) Quote: “shall be resolved by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules ... YOU AND BROOKS PEST SOLUTIONS WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND TO PARTICIPATE IN CLASS ACTIONS.”
