Beware, if you have a website for business or pleasure!
The scam: A rep from Websitepros will call you.
This rep will tell you that your website is
not optimized. This Websitepros rep will tell you that he/she has looked at your site and your website is not optimized because of meta tags, or this or that.
This Websitepros rep will tell you that they will optimize your website for free for 30 days and all you need to do to cancel is call within this time period.
This Websitepros rep will tell you that their company actually pays Yahoo to put your site in the first pages.
This Websitepros rep will "assure" you that you will see "immediate" results.
This Websitepros rep will again "assure" you that if you call withing 30 days to cancel, you will not be billed a dime.
The facts:
My wife received a call from a Websitepros rep giving her the above mentioned boloney. However, at the time, my wife thought that Websitepros was in fact an honest company. So, she decided to try it for free 30 days and agreed to pay the $50.00 a month on her Discover Card if she liked the service.
Within two weeks my wife noticed that Websitepros had not done a damn thing on her website promotion. When my wife did call, two weeks into this scam, the rep from Websitepros told her that she would have to fix her meta tags herself, and that they only had to tell her that the "tags were not good."
Now, three weeks into this scam, my wife saw that Websitepros still had not done a damn thing to "optimize" her website, or anything else for that matter. So, she called Website pros to cancel before the 30 days would expire.
Next, when this "30 day free service" from Websitepros expired, they charged my wife's credit card for $50.00! How did this happen you ask? All Websitepros had to do was claim they didn't have a "Cancel Order in their files."
Websitepros will not refund my wife's credit card for the $50.00 they stole from her. Everytime my wife calls Websitepros to try and get her money back, she gets another run-around from the company. She gets a multitude of BS stories from Websitepros. "Oh, we processed the refund." "Oh, you can't get your money back until two or three billing cycles have gone by." "Oh, if you had only called to cancel, this would not have happened." And, blah blah blah.
The bottome line:
Websitepros is a scam internet company.
Final thought:
Websitepros is a bulls*t company, and it was worth the $50.00 to see it posted on usacomplaints.com
