What is trnkey concierge?

How is trnkey concierge a free service?

Trnkey partners with trusted service providers and vendors who compensate trnkey to sell and process services on their behalf. Rather than maintaining internal sales and operations teams, these providers pay trnkey a nominal fee to manage the process end-to-end—allowing clients to receive expert assistance at no cost.

If you’re not using it yet, visit client.trnkey.com to get started. For assistance, please email [email protected].

Will I have to pay trnkey concierge anything?

Trnkey will never bill you for anything. In rare cases where a credit card is required, it is used solely to process a requested service with a trusted vendor or service provider who will bill you directly.

What if I am not moving in on the same day as my close or lease start date?

For as long as you are the owner or resident of your home(s), you may have multiple active service accounts. Trnkey ensures service is established at your new address and submits stop-service requests only for the dates you specify.

Why does trnkey concierge need my current/forwarding address?

Most service providers require a current or most recent address for identity verification. A forwarding address also allows providers to send final bills, statements, and other important communications.

Why haven’t I received a bill for a service trnkey concierge recently started in my name?

Billing cycles vary by service. While internet and television are typically billed monthly, utilities such as water and sewer are often billed quarterly or combined into a single municipal bill. Additionally, if a service begins mid-cycle, it can take 45–60 days for the first bill to be issued.

Why did I get a bill for service at my previous address?

Any usage incurred between the start of a billing cycle and your stop-service date appears on your final bill. Depending on timing, the final bill may not be issued until 45–60 days after your stop service request. If you believe a bill was issued in error, please contact your service provider or your trnkey concierge directly.

Why do you need my personal information like birth date, driver's license/government ID number, and Social Security Number?

Service providers require personal information to verify identity. If you prefer not to provide this information, you may verify your identity through an authorized vendor, which typically requires three forms of identification and a fee.

Why should I use trnkey concierge?

Trnkey saves you time, money, and frustration by eliminating the most tedious administrative tasks. No corporate call centers. No waiting on hold. No endless phone prompts. No hours spent researching providers.

How will I be contacted?
