Complaint Review:
Ideal Positions
Ideal Positions is a internet marketing company that provides Pay per click placements for specified keywords at a flat monthly rate.
In April of 2009 I was contacted via the phone by sales rep named Chris who gave me an overview of what they do.
I told him it sounded interesting and after viewing their website decided to try it for 30 days. Chris and I agreed that if i did not like the results it would not go any further.
I gave him my credit card info and got started. I never signed a contract and at the end of the 30 days did not feel it was worth the money and told chris i was not interested in continuing. He said fine and that was the last I heard from them.
Guess What? They continued to take money out of my account to the tune of $2,000. I would not have known if my bank hadn't contacted me to tell me my account was deficient.
I immediately contacted them and was treated rudely by Patrick who said that the service goes on monthly until i cancel. I told him that Chris and i agreed on the phone to a 30 day trial. His response was that Chris has been with us for 3 years and would never lie to you. Of course, why would a commissioned sale rep lie?
I asked him where my contract was and he told me we don't need a contract because you agreed on the phone. This is a joke because if the sales rep lies to you about the nature of the contract it is not valid.
I will be seeking legal action against this scam and i strongly advise any business owners or internet marketers to avoid this company or risk getting your bank account cleaned out.
The company is called Ideal Positions and they are out of Arcata California. Don't let their slick website fool you.
The last time i spoke with Patrick he hung up on me. I was not rude he just does not want to admit that this is a scam.
Internet marketers beware!

After speaking with several people at Ideal Positions what happened to me was a misunderstanding.
I want to make one thing perfectly clear to potential Ideal position clients. I never once had a problem with the service they provide to people.
In fact, I would recommend their service to people as an effective way to use Internet Marketing.
The service they provide can easily save you time and money finding the right keywords to reach your target audience.
Once i spoke with the proper people at Ideal Positions this matter was cleared up in a matter of hours.
My only regret here is that out of haste and anger i posted this negative report because at the time i felt like I was wronged.
In closing i have found the people at Ideal Positions to be professional and responsive to my needs. I have also made myself available to any potential clients that may want to ask me about their service.
I am a 15 year internet marketing consultant and would recommend them to my clients.
In closing, I can honestly say that after dealing with the right people at Ideal Positions, i find them to be an honest and good source of internet marketing and look forward to working with them in the future.
The Internet is loaded with scams and rip offs but Ideal Positions is NOT one of them.
