Total Scam
January 20, 2024

When I started my Ecommerce business I was promised 24/7 Technical Support, Customer service, Mentorship, Website analysis, Premium SEO service and likelyhood of a seven figure annual income. Not One of these promises were delivered. Training was delivered by Filipino instructors who could barely speak English. Technical Support and Website Analysis was non-existent and when I did get through, all they could provide were excuses why they couldn't do their job. Absolutely the worst investment I have ever made in my life..

Misleading
August 5, 2022

I was led to believe if I did all I was told I'd be successful. That wasn't the case. After 2 years I never made one sale. I had to terminate with them, however they kept my website I paid for up and running to use as their portfolio. I believe they showed me a defunct site when I signed up. Additionally, I was hesitant to purchase the platinum package and stated so. I was told that they'd reduce the price and I'd be one of their success stories, that they'd interview me before and after. That never happened. I take full responsibility but feel misled after being convinced that I should take a home equity loan and was guaranteed I'd make the money I borrowed on my house back within six months. This is truly a buyer beware scenario. Now I owe a lot of money I invested with nothing to show for it. As a retiree I've had to go back to work because of the sales job. Do your research. Don't take out any loans and be wary of a coach telling you how quickly you'll make money. Oh, and BTW other than setting up the website, you'll do all the work. As a sidw jote, the platform is warhead.

Total scammers
February 10, 2022

If I could I would rate them a ZERO! The only thing Kreative is about is getting as much money as they can from people! They act like they're going to get your website in the number one spot on google. I paid Kreative to get a website up and running. But I can't do anything with the website. Stay away from this company with a ten foot pole! They're total bums! I'm trying to get my money back from this fake company and also trying to work with the bank, but unfortunately it's very difficult.

WARNING!
October 13, 2021

A fast speaking agent called and talk me to do a business with this company. Of course if I can I would rate them no star, but the system does not allow that. I waisted entire year and almost 20k in an effort to get the the WEB business going. After the WEB was up more than 3 months, there was no single sail. After I complained to the company I was told that my nitch is not helpful; well it was forced to accept it by my first consultant. "He has been doing this 15 years and I do not nothing".
In conclusion this is total scam company oriented only toward stealing as much money from yo as possible. They use any tool to do so. My mistake was that I did not do full investigation before giving them any money. Seatle BB has so many complaints the they issue a red flag to this company. My recommendation is stay away

Terrible experience
August 21, 2021

I have been contacted through a 67.00 ad and tricked by my own desires to lose 8600 I asked for my money back and was switched to a different guy with Kreative who then started talking about more and more money. I am disgusted I have a website that is so lame that nothing will sell and it is not complete. I am supposed to learn how to finish it. The products on it are too expensive and horrible selection. No way will I spend any more money. Why don't we look into a class action lawsuit. Contact me if interested

DON'T DO IT
July 7, 2021

This is a complete waste of time and money, They leave out all the important things you need to know. Marketing, state tax laws, and especially how you need to continue to give them more money each step. Even then you never seem to get anywhere. They will show you websites and how profitable they are. All part of a scam. Keep your money!

Beware of Kreative, Business Venture or John Giles. I paid $42,282.14 into this business and worked my site (EverydayHammocks) every day and as of 5/31/21 made 0 return! Kreative makes you sign another contract whereby you must pay $99.99 per month for 24 months. I informed them on 10/14/2020 that I couldn't afford this monthly payment as a widow but they kept charging my bank account so I've paid an additional $1,199.88 and have submitted an email to cancel my entire account with them. They put me in debt and I finally refinanced my mortgage for a lower interest rate and cleared and cancelled three credit cards. Instead, I joined Airbnb & Vrbo and have been renting out my 1st-floor unit to vacation tourist and have made more money than my entire bill to this company. This company has such a poor rating which I should have checked before joining them. BEWARE of these con artists! I would be happy to provide a copy of the costs paid, but this site won't accept the attachment.

I wish that I would have read these reviews before getting roped into their scam. I am frustrated beyond belief with the debt that I have accrued with these criminals. They make terrific claims that just do not materialize. I would sue them, also.

Get out quick
August 21, 2020

1 phone call. Sounded good... had to check with the manager. ( a used car trick)... should have known better. I invested 5k. Second call they went into the hard sell up grade. I was looking at this review and decided these guys were pushing way too hard. So i called the credit card company. STOP payment. Don't play with these guys. They just want your money. Talk a good game. But the game is take your money... run away NOW

They have no problem taking someone's money and not giving it back. I was looking to make a little extra to pay off hospital bills, and they just put me deeper in debt. Piss poor service, and it takes forever for them to get anything done. Your money will be better spent elswhere!

H. D. and all others interested in initiating a lawsuit please contact me directly at *******@gmail.com. Thank you

I initially called CMS (888)224-9248 for posting links online. I was contacted by Interractive Business solutions and solicited for an e-commerce business for 8,900.00 (the cheapest). I was then contacted by Progressive Business Services and solicited for $3,995.00 & $2,995.00. Then contacted by Kreative Llc (coaches) and solicited for $14,000.00. I cancelled after the last 2 solicitations (30 days later). I have no website and no coaching. They refuse to refund my money stating their programs don't fall under the initial 60 day money back guarantee. I am disputing these charges with my bank. I urge everyone who is a victim of any of these companies to please file a complaint with the FTC & the ic3.gov. We must stop this financial victimization. Thank you

I was searching online ways to make money since I was out of a job, came across an ad that could help do that, paid 37 bucks to start program and was informed I would gets details as to what it was all about. I spoke with the first guy Brandon who basically sold me on spending 4500 for my business with training included being a few times a week up to 30 mins on the calls and would have my site up in about 45 to 60 days and soon will be making money, never once did he mention that It would be essential to have tax help or better yet Marketing! Which ended up costing additional thousands that I did not have to begin with. He also told me if I need help with my Cc payments to let him know, I did a few times and still nothing! Now I'm out of 9500 and they need more money to do additional work that I dont have time to do since I'm back to work & school but I am beyond tap out money wise and not even sure this is gonna work. Wish I never did this to begin with because it put me deeper in the whole financially and my site has been live almost a month and nothing. I'm pissed they only give you three days to want to cancel and hopefully get your money back. Now coming here and seeing everyone else reviews just seals the deal about what I've been feeling about the whole ordeal. Beware people who are considering work from home ads online, if you have the money to give away then go for it, maybe things will work out and you'll actually make money.

This company does and says anything to get your money. Will not follow through on any of it. They seem to just be barely legal enough that you won't be able to get your money back. Definitely think about going with a different company.

I have been given a beautiful website and have received online and live training with experts. The techs do some of the work and teach me to do the rest. I need to know how to add/subtract items I sell, post blogs, advertise, etc. All are included in my training.

Kreative is a scam.
December 6, 2019

We all need to work together to try bring them down so they will not rip off any more people. They got me out of $10,000 and I refuse to give them any more. All they want is your money and will not give you the help to need. It's like they want you to quit because now they have your money and you can't get it back because you already passed the 3-days mark. We need to find out who is the CEO and own for this rip off business.

Thieves running a muck
November 26, 2019

This business is total scam. They charge you for things you do not get and tell you how important it is to be on the first page of googles search engine but they don't tell you the only way you will find your company is by the actual web site address. I. E. If you sell hammers, you cannot enter the word HAMMER into the search engine and find your web site. You have to enter your website address "hammers big and small" to get to your web site. If you are starting a new business, who's going to know your web site address? And for this aggravation they charge you $16,250.00 that they call "Marketing" which I have yet to see. They also charge you for a software app. For $3,000.00 which I have also yet to see. In total they will charge you about $20,000.00 for work that is poorly done, incomplete, or non-existentant. You are better off using Go Daddy then using Kreative.com unless you like giving money away because that is all you will be doing when you use them.
