Mixed experiences
Mixed experiences
Started well then went downhill. I am pleased with the website design and was impressed with my first Account Manager. Less pleased to have 3 Acc. Managers in less than a year and not being informed about it. The website worked well for 8 months, then the enquiries stopped. Yell.com's reaction? Buy more advertising! I was only put in touch with somebody helpful giving me useful advice when I made a complaint. I'm not I.T.-savvy & made this clear right from the start. I was told I'd get all the advice & help I needed. Except with my first Acc Mgr it hasn't happened. I feel like a blind man blundering around a minefield after my guides all ran away.

Stay well away from this company I purchased the lead guarantee package I’ve paid nearly £3000 and not had a job in 3 months they have put scam calls down as leads that I’ve had it’s saying I’ve had 34 leads and only 3 of 4 of them are genuine, also jobs are being posted and put down as leads but I’m not able to see them on the job section or or respond to them, and now they want another £1600 which I will not be paying, would not recommend anyone to be using them was promised so much before signing and I’m very disappointed results I’ve had!

Overpriced / Low Job Leads
As a business owner I find the monthly subscription fees expensive and have complained about aggressive contract renewals. Low amount of jobs leads. In my opinion the service is not that great, all they want is your money and leave you to it. I wouldn’t recommend yell for business advertising. There are much better platforms.
