AVOID THIS ADVERTISING

Posted :Wednesday, September 8, 2010by Marianne Send Maill   

A representative contacted me (obtained my business details from my new website) and said they would advertise my business via their Webmail email site at a cost of R1,000 per month x 12 months for a guaranteed 60,000 views. I made it clear to the salesperson that I was unsure, and that I would only go ahead (if at all) in August as I had to still decide. He got out his sales book and filled in my details with whatever it is that I required, etc, quoted a price per month, etc. and left. I mentioned to him that althought I knew very little about websites, I believed that the so-called ad seemed to be a flash graphic on their website, with a hyperlink to my website. He assured me it was targeted marketing to 60,000 or more clients per month. I have since found out that it is exactly as I mentioned - a hyperlink and nothing more, targeted to no-one but whoever happens to log into their mail via their webmail server.
I requested cancellation as no money has exchanged hands, no artwork has been supplied or agreed upon, no person has contacted me regarding anything of the sort, and yet THEY WANT MY MONEY AND THEY WANT IT NOW AND THAT'S THAT - no cancellations - I HAVE TO DO BUSINES

Hi Rick, Can you please contact me. I might have more people I can get together to complain against Webmail. Please reply this email. I think the send email on this site is working ?

Dear Marianne Are you willing to lay charges? Or complain to Carte Blanche or the Direct Marketing Association? Or Star's Consumer Watch columnist Wendy Knowler - consumer@knowler.co.za If so, please do it or contact me. I am trying to get a group together to press charges at one police station, which will force the Police to investigate. (This site's "Send e-mail" feature does not work, so I've posted this instead)
