Goodzer
January 29, 2025

On December 9th, 2024, I pay Tanya from Gooder $130 for 2 electrical leads
And I never received any leads. When l dispute the service Tanya lies to visa tell them that she delivers services I didn't received any call from any customer.
When I check complain from past customer, I see similar complain.
She takes people money and deliver no services
This company shouldn't be in business they take people money, and you get nothing for your money

Irrelevant search results.
September 2, 2024

I used Bing for several weeks now as an attempt to escape googles curated search. The AI is pretty good, but searching for things normally never gives me the results I want. I can look up very simple things like Capitol of clayton ok and I will get search results about a baseball player. I looked up ps2 laser replacement tutorial. I wanted a page not a video, I got all kinds of crazy search results but, nothing I needed.

Don't believe what you read on Bing!
August 18, 2024

Bing always says,"Ask me anything" but I recently asked a question and the response I received was "I can't answer that question". A few weeks ago I asked which malls in New Jersey charge for parking. It listed Short Hills - which ONLY charges for valet parking, Bridgewater Commons - Complimentary parking because I called and double checked and Newport Mall which I did not spend time verifying. Bing did NOT list American Dream Mall in Rutherford where everyone pays $5.00 to park! I couldn't believe that Bing did not list the one mall I am certain charges for parking! Another time I asked a question and Bing said to look at line 7b of my tax return. I got my tax return only to see there is NO 7a or 7b just 7. I wrote back and Bing said it "is still learning". Obviously the programmers at Bing are far from proficient! I have asked very specific questions only to get back a response that did NOT answer my question! I have NEVER found Bots at any site to be helpful! I ask over and over again for a live person but the Bots keep saying they can help me. Eventually even the bots give up and transfer me to a person. They are all a waste of time in my opinion. Anyway, look for a more reliable search engine if one even exists!

It gives a different POV
June 13, 2024

I had to do research for my academic paper and whenever I needed more sources I switched to Bing.
When I search Google, I will get the most popular sources on the subjects, and writing a paper based on the post's popular opinion on the matter sometimes is limiting.
It is interesting how Bing has completely different results for the same keywords. This is how I can find less-used sources which give depth to my paper. Also, it is easier to write a paper when you broaden your knowledge.

When you research something, the link is never the pure link to the website but something with a BING.com and jibberish following it. I know that this is how Bing makes money but this is annoying. I think they tried to intergrate too much in this search engine and failed miserably to produce a valid search engine that would be pleasing to the eye and easy to use. Simple is better, as they say in French LA SIMPLICITE FAIT LA BEAUTE. Nice try but it is so busy that it deters me from wanting to BING something, I rather GOOGLE something. And embedding it in EDGE is a double no no, this whole "ecosystem" idea is counterproductive to a free world with freedom of choice and speech. Bing is a system that was not made to be user friendly, it is distubing to the eye, unnecessarily complicated and very disruptive to productivity. Firefox and Chrome are still crushing it.

All the major Big Tech sites don't want to pay real news media outlets a license for aggregating news, so what they started doing was sourcing content farms. Content farms are how Far Right, Far Left, fringe groups and foreign agents have been spreading disinformation in the United States. The way that it works is that someone puts up a website for dirt cheap and uses AI to whip up garbage articles filled with fake news and clickbait, or hires college kids or Third Worlders off of Fiverr, Amazon Turk or some other place to crank out B.S. Clickbait like, "Why GenZs are Terrible," "Why Boomers Destroyed the Economy," "How the Democrats are Ruining America," or "How Republicans are Bringing Back Slavery."

Many of these content farms play both sides against the middle. I posted a screenshot showing how one content farm accidentally released two articles with the exact same title on the same day, where one was meant to attack Baby Boomers and the other Millennials. The content farm is called, "From Frugal to Free," and on March 25, it published one article titled, "22 Reasons Millennials are Ruining the Economy," and another one on the same day titled, "20 Reasons Why Boomers Ruined the Economy."

Some of the content farms in question:

The Washington Examiner (run by college kids)
Knewz
Wealthy Boomers
Pulse of Pride
Stapler Confessions
Flannels or FlipFlops
Cryptopolitan
MovieWeb
ThyBlackMan
Engineer Finances

The list goes on and on...all fly by night content farms sourced as news.

Bing is not a victim of these content farms. It's in on this scam. It allows members of the content farm to report any comment correcting the information as violating the TOS. Members of these farms also pretend to be Americans reacting to the article. So, for example, in a fake news article about "Florida removing millions off of Medicaid," teams of them will post stuff like, "Those Republican scum" (pretending to be Democrats) or vice versa, as in, "Good for Florida for getting rid of people sponging off the system."

Remember why Bing is doing this. It's doing this so it can keep up the appearance of having a news section while refusing to pay real news media outlets. Sites like Bing, Facebook, Google and others need to be criminally investigated because they have allowed these fake news content farm to flourish in the months leading up to the presidential election.

From Frugal to Free's content farm article, "20 Reasons Why Boomers Ruined the Economy." This content posted a near-identical article, except attacking Millenials. Both were served by Microsoft.
From Frugal to Free's content farm article, "22 Reasons Why Millennials are Ruining the Economy." Same article attacking Boomers was published on the same day.
This is what happens when you call out disinformation at one of the content farm articles posted at Bing. The content farmers mass-flag your post to get it removed for TOS violation.

My search: what percent of college degrees came from online universities? Results were so-so with many, many ads from online universities showing up as top search answers. I go to msn.com to read headline news and - of course - more references about online universities. What is the point? I am not looking to give MSN for fodder for their ads.

Planet Motors Car Dealership in Richmond Hill
February 27, 2024

Stay away! PLEASE Read before you buy!
I purchased a 2019 landrover discovery with 80,000km from this dealership on Feb 6th and it broke down and left me stranded on Feb 17th. I had it 11 days!
I called the dealership immediately and the sales guy Nico told me that because I got a deal on the car that I'm on my own. He refused to let me tow it back to their dealership!
The car went into limp mode and my partner felt it was transmission fluid issues. I asked my sales person if this had been inspected and filled up and he responded yes!
I had it towed to the Landrover Dealership in Ajax. They gave me a scary quote stating the transmission had to be completely replaced. I called the dealership and sent emails/texts since they didn't answer the phone. They said they wanted it towed to a "normal" mechanic. I did another tow even when planet motors refused to pay the tow fee and still refused to have my car back to their own on site mechanic. I towed it to Fast Auto Concepts in Oshawa where they informed me that the transmission had next to no fluid at all! This is why the car went into limp mode. I was also informed the NOX sensor had to be replaced.
I am now out of pocket almost $4,000 plus my car is still in the shop and I used up all my CAA tow privileges.
So here is the real kicker….11 days I had this car. When I went to pick it up they didn't get me to pay the balance there and stated they would send me the invoice for the balance. They transferred the car into my name and gave me the keys. Since this all happened they have now realized they didn't send me the invoice.
So instead of standing behind their vehicle like their website states I actually start getting messages from the sales person Nico threatening a lien on the car and repo by 5pm that day if I don't pay the balance owed.
When I refused to pay until my car issues were identified fully and a discussion about how to cover those costs for my nonfunctioning car I then get emails from the actual dealership owner Toni Sultzberg now threatening to call the police and charge me with car theft! Like I stole my own car from their dealership because they didn't have me pay the balance when they signed the car over and handed me the keys. It was mind blowing.
OMVIC is now involved and investigating. They call the dealership and can't get past reception. The owner to this day has not picked up the phone for me either and only sends insulting, threatening emails.
When trying to negotiate with Nico he actually texts that this isn't his problem and that if the car had been sent to their own mechanic they could repair for less….he wouldn't let me send it back to them! I was also told I must have put gas in my diesel! Nope! Oh and I must have turned the "shift knob" wrong and that must have messed up the car. No! Transmission issues confirmed by 2 different mechanics. Still they refuse to acknowledge.
When I asked about their website stating they stand behind their vehicles, 14 day satisfaction, 3 mth warranty on power train etc….response back was that it wasn't wrote down in the purchase agreement so they do not hold themselves to it! I was told I should have checked agreement before I signed to be sure it was included.
Toni stated he has been in business for 25 years. How they are is beyond me if this is how they handle their customers and service after they take your $$$.
I saw a past negative post by an AJ on Google dated 2 mths ago. The response back from the owner screamed cover up, very condescending and he actually bashes their customer about credit. In the experience I just had and still living they seem good at twisting it around to play the victim so AJ….thank you for your honest review just as mine here just now. I have all text/emails to back up everything above. I feel your frustration because I'm living it right now.
I'm already preparing for a response to mine in a way where they will not take accountability for their behaviour and somehow come out victimized.

I'm sorry to say that (like Google) Microsoft has ruined their 'search' engines because Bing no longer 'honors' search operators. Now, Bing doesn't even recognize quotes... the parser switches the words around to give the results opposite to the stated query. It's been a while since "-" (NOT) and "+" (MUST INCLUDE) have worked... I've had a few instances where "-(word)" will NOT include 'word' in parentheses in a query... and usually includes 'word' as if the query was written as "+word".
Search engine that don't recognize and 'honor' search operators should NOT be called "search engine".
That should also include all of the other 'search engines' that use Bing and/or Google Search as a basis, like DuckDuckGo, etc.

Botanica dispensary
October 23, 2023

I used to love this place. That all changed the day we had someone hit us and run in thier extremely small parking lot. This company has not helped us at all. They told us to make a policy report because they have footage of the ahole who hit us. We made the report and tried to call botanica 4 times with no answer to the phone. So long story short, you better hope you don't get hit in the small parking lot because they will not be any help.
Shame on you Botanica. My husband was an extremely loyal customer that will never come back and neither will I. I also will be spreading the word on every social media platform possible. You people need to do better.

Fallen to karens
October 7, 2023

Stay far away from their "ART" generator it will block your CREATIVE prompts regardless of what it may be as said it has turned into the equivalent of being in a catholic school room with nuns hounding over your shoulder making sure you're not misbehaving, or you will get blocked/have a ruler to your hands.
They have taken away the very essence of what art should be unpredictable, exotic, and unexplainable.
But with every good thing must come to an end and in turn they promote hypocrisy by taking away the general world's population of FREE SPEECH by dumbing down/red taping creative minds and as an end note "what it cannot plagiarize it seeks to censor what it cannot regulate it seeks to ban"

Why M I paying for Bing if I'm going to watch ads? This company like other are charging customers for Tv shows and Movies, but they are adding so many ads on that is a joke, they need to choose where they would like to get they money from... Do you want to make money from membership or from commercial advertising?... Take your pick... It is unfair!
