    Okay. We're at 48 hours with no activity since paying... I'm still friendly, and hopful, but it's starting to not look good for this service... We have emailed, PMed and forumed.

    Are there any postive reviews at all for this service? I am interested but very skeptical.

    I did not get any response yesterday either, but I am optimistic that he will get back on track ...

    EDIT - Just as I thought, BigBoy got in touch with me today and everything is on track ... :)

    He did get in touch with me in PM after a few attempts...... I have still not seen any work yet though.

    BigBoy - Feel free to ignore this advice if you want, but seems to me you should set people's expectations about how fast this work will be started. You've obviously got some demand here and could make some decent money... But it seemed from the initial thread that your work would get going in a day or two. I can tell from the posters here and my own experience that it did not. And that's totally fine with me, as long as you tell me that what the deal is up-front.

    Cheers.

    I completely agree - this was my experience too - I think BigBoy has good intentions and maybe a higher demand than expected, however I do believe he intends to come through on all his commitments. My experience with him is that he is very forthcoming. Sometimes slow in responding back, but comes through nonetheless.

    BigBoy Please update me on my ads as well :)

    No great advice. What the problem was is that I got some of the ads I needed to do in my pm and IT GOT SWAMPED along with people wanting to know more about my Blogging Network Venture.

    I'm getting everything in order right now and I WILL do the posting + more for the waits.

    My goal right now is to get caught up and close the thread and make a new one with a MORE Detailed schedule and outline.

    I do apologize for the delays, but to be honest I DIDN't know it was HUGE need for this and thought I would only get 1 or 2 at a time.

    I'm a honest Guy and fairly new here and didn't know it was THIS BUSY!

    So for everyone who subscribed, I will get it done plus a bonus and will be updating you on the status (ALL OF YOU) either late tonight or EARLY in the morning!

    Thanks

    That's good to know! - Maybe reply to some PMs, and I am sure when you get things sorted, people will keep buying from you, I know I will... Please do give a rough timescale to those of us that have paid already, a rough idea is okay :)

    Seriously dude.. People are very patient, but only when you give them information and a reason. Not answering emails and PM's is simply bad business. No matter what your line of work or how small the gig.

    I was extremely patient here. I sent 6 PM's, two emails and posted in two forums to try to get a status. We are now 4 days from payment without any meaningful communication or work. If I ran my business this way, we'd be out of business.

    Folks - Don't do work with BigBoy32724... I'm sorry. But we've been extremely patient and just have to call it like it is. We're not angry. It happens. But others need to know.

    I am patiently waiting as well, BigBoy, come on and show some progress on the work you promised - at this point, the time and energy that I am spending in following up with you, I might as well have posted on Craigslist myself ... most of us still want to work with you, but you have to come through and communicate when you say that you will. I am still waiting for the update I was promised yesterday, and I just want to see some progress ... my husband wants me to file with Paypal to get a refund and I am holding him at bay waiting for you to come through - I know how it gets, but you have to communicate in these sorts of situations and come through on even the smallest of promises. Thank you.

    I paid the guy to do work for me, and still no ads. On top of it, I see that he is now banned. Not good...

    I have not heard anything in several days either ... I am getting worried now that he is banned - he has not been around, how do you suddenly get banned when you are not even there? That is weird ... what is everyone doing with their service?

    UPDATE: Well, I did finally get an instant response from BigBoy ... unfortunately it was through Paypal's Dispute system and he basically refused the refund that I requested. I feel bad that things are not working out for my use of this service and for his end, I had high hopes and now I am feeling like I have to engage in a battle just to get twenty-some dollars back for the services I never received ... almost a week has gone by, and only one day had been posted on CL.

    If BigBoy gets organized sometime in the future, I would try his service again, but I don't think I would pay upfront for a month's worth of service. Maybe he is only banned temporarily and maybe he will be back ... only time will tell!

    UPDATE: Paypal can not reverse a charge for services - Have to go through bank, what a pain ... I'll wait a few days to see if there are any updates to the service first and post here if anything changes. So far, here is my experience:

    January 4th - Paid for service, received a post after a ton of emails asking when the post will be up
    January 5th - No post
    January 6th - No post
    January 7th - No post
    January 8th - No post
    January 9th - No post​


    I'll update my experiences with the service and hope that I get the service I paid for at least some of the month ...

    I am interested in your services. I would start you with posting in the Craigslist Auto Section posting 20 vehicles to start and I need each ad posted 2-3 times daily and the times broken up. Of course I want them to stick for a few days! I would send you the photos however you request along with the descriptions. Please let me know what pricing I would be looking at buddy! Just PM me and I will get back to you asap THANKS!!

    I filed a dispute with Paypal, and he stated in the dispute that he posted my ads and e-mailed me an excel report. I checked all of my e-mail accounts - nothing. Searched CL for my ads - nothing. Guess I will continue to hold my breath...

    Hi.
    Im looking for someone who can post (25 ads)one ad a day in one section, in 25 cities.
    It would be either every day or every other day. Eventually it would be 50 cities.
    Could you give me a quote and tell me if you can do it?
    Thanks
    Mike
