This company, which claims to be an online listing service for businesses, called my church and sold a listing for $ 459.00. The "listing" is nothing more than a name (incorrectly listed) address and telephone. To find the listing one must know the telephone number - — not the name. Moreover searching under "churches", gets you No Results.
It was sold to the church's financial secretary based on her statement that she "writes checks all the time" and that it was a renewal of a prior listing. When the church volunteer mentioned her understanding that this sale was a renewal, the quality control representative, simply said that she did not have the file in front of her.
This is the biggest ripoff. The service is nothing more than one can get from the yellow pages for free. When the Pastor called to complain, they played the tape of the fast talking quality control representative, but not the original sales pitch. I believe this is a company that was engaged in the same type of scam in re organized under a new name. If they call tell all of your employees and volunteers to just hang up or better yet tell them you weant to record the call.
