Were do I start, First of all they are just like telemarketers bugging the crap outta you until you subscribe with theme. I did the whole free credit month trial just to see how it will go. Not even 1 hit. I would get (what i think is computer generated to make me believe) 20-30 fake customers asking in the same format the same question. So I felt this is not for me and that my own networking and customers word of month was enough. Plus I had a customer come to me (young guy) who basically tried to get a free job (wrapping cars) on his car, and when I did the work he tried to get a discount and when I couldnt do it because already discounted he lied on yelp. After numerous attempts to contact Yelp,, I could not get ahold of no and I've sent message IN regards to 2 sides of a story, yet they NEVER SITE WITH THE BUSINESS OWNER. THEY IGNORED ME, BUT THEY SURE ARE ON YOU LIKE FLIES ON THE POO WHEN THEY WANT TO GET PAID... NEVER AGAIN, OFFER UP BRINGS IN MORE PEOPLE THEN YELP... 0 STARS
If you go online you can find plenty of sites where people say that Yelp tries to extort them with threats of bad reviews and promises of putting the good reviews up at the top, if they pay more money per month. Well, my son was the head chef at a restaurant in Ojai and he was constantly contacted by Yelp to pay a monthly fee (I think it was about $500) and for that they would either eliminate the bad reviews or put them at the bottom. They are basically extortionists and liars, cheats and frauds. How can you take their 'reviews' seriously when they do that sort of stuff? I don't ever use their site any more.
