Qype, Anyone use them?

[Fred Pass]

Got a phone call today from 'qype' a bussiness directory, saying the usual give us some money each month and we will put you top of the list in your area. Was wondering if anyone has used them and was it any good?

Dont usually use these type of business' but it seems quite legit and cheap enough... Or the lad on other side was talking a load of tripe? I dont know.

 

Anyone have history with these or still use them?

If they were that good I doubt they`d be doing cold call sales. I`d say if you are going to pay to get your site optimized get it done by somebody who has been recommended to you. However, I haven`t used them.

I got a call the other morning from the 'business directory' saying I was optimized or top this that and the other. Apparently, I registered last year and they just needed my payment details for the next year. I've never heard of them, when questioned I apparently paid 90 something quid last year (news to me!), they said they'd forward a copy of the invoice from last year, and details of the 3 monthly optimization calls I'd be getting for my renewal fee - once I've given my details!

Still have no email? I hope they haven't forgotten...

Cheers lads. Ye i thought at first it was a bit dodgy but i went on their website and found my business was already on their database... Looks all legit but seems to me if nobody has really heard of them it aint worth messing about with!
