In the fourth quarterof I signed up for an unrelated service, to list my business in multiple internet directories, in an attempt to increase my web sites organic rankings. Close to that time, I received a form from Europe Business
Guide, asking me to list the language we spoke and to return it to set up my profile. I assumed this was related to the paid service I had signed up for, signed the form and returned it. A few months later, I started getting emails from Europe Business Guide (EU Business Services LTD.indicating I owed them 990 Euro's (@ $1423 in US dollars) for a three year listing in their guide.
I promptly responded to their email, indicated this was a mistake that my only intention was to sign up for a free listing, and to please correct the error. They did not respond, and from that point, would contact me via email (and once in writing) indicating that I owed that sum of money plus late fee penalties, and now and also seeking legal fees. Each time, I would
respond, and they would ignore my communications. Now they are threatening to turn me over to a collection agency.
After conducting research on this organization, I found numerous complaints from others, who experience the same situation as me. There is even a facebook page regarding this company and their deceptive practices.
This is a deceptive, fraudulent business. They put in the fine print that this is for a three year subscription for 990 euro's. Then the pressure you to pay, and threaten to sue you if you do not pay the fee, plus late penalties plus attorney fees.
This type of business practice is terribly deceptive. I simply cannot believe a business is allowed to conduct themselves in this manner. I had NO intent or knowledge of advertising with this organization, and would NEVER do business with an outfit as unscrupulous as this. If you ever get anything from this company, destroy it. They are the worst of crooks! I have never filled out a complaint against a company before, and I have felt so strongly about their deceptive practices that I have filed a
complaint with the Better Business Bureau and now filed on complaint.
