    STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY!!

    These guys are nothing but a joke.

    My father was tricked into joining them when he started his business a few years ago.

    Two years subscription on they're phoning him repeatedly demanding he continue his listing. They've told him if he doesn't pay again they'll bill him £2000 (on his credit card details they have on file - he paid by cheque) for breach of contract and they even told me when I spoke to them today that his failure to continue the listing would result in them "taking his site off the internet" and removing him from all the major search engines. (thats right folks, didnt you know they own google?...)

    The telephonist was rude, threatening and downright out of order.

    My father doesn't really understand the internet, i'm infuriated by their audacity.

    They also claimed to have a Page Rank 9 site

    http://www.checkpagerank.net/index.php?name=businessinternetdirectory.com&links=1

    Nothing but a lying bunch of scammers who prey on internet business beginners.

    If this post breaches site protocol my infraction box has a few spaces.

    HAHA

    This place is superb. They actually gave me an infraction for warning you guys.

    How is relaying a piece of information attacking and harassing others?

    Should I change my post to go use this company and get conned? They're great. I thought the point of a forum was to spread information.

    Cheers whichever mod gave me this one. You're awesome.

    Well it is a bit offensive with not so much proof, but don't worry, you'll need more infractions than that to be suspended/banned. DP mods are okay! ;) Trust me!
