StoreOnline ripoff, paid $12,000.00 for 7 internet sites received no help and took 8 months to be up and running made no money to date. Orem Utah
Went to seminar at Radisson Hotel in Mississauga,Ontario, Canada May1/2004 paid $30.00 and bought an affiliate link for Smartshare Vacations for $98.00. Was told to attend a wokshop on June1/2004 at Hilton Toronto Hotel for the training session from 9:am til 6:30pm.
This was a high pressure session promising to make big dollars on the internet. I bought 6 sites for $6,000.00 and told was easy to program sites to be up and running with in a week. The next day went into computer to set up first site but with very little knowledge for computer could not get site programed.
On July 5/2004 had call from storesonline they would give me 1 more site for $5,000.00 with a web promo package,links 4 Trade 1 site 400 links plus 10 coaching sessions. My contact was Mary Coon to teach me on sitting up my site and this did help.
On Oct.14/2004 sent al my certicates to storeonline for my site to get up and running.On Dec.6/2004 sent Mary Coon an email to find out why site not up and running. Mary emailed me on Dec.9/2004 saying she would talk to the programmers to have my site up and running in a few days but as of Jan.17/2005 not up and running and sent an email to Mari Silva, Customer Relations. On Feb.2/2005 David Stivers called asking what the prolem is. After telling what my prolem is he said the site would be up and running in 48 hours which it was.
As of to day no hits or visitors to my site as in the contract it states you will receive 200 hits per day and 2,000 visitors, plus they would hand submit my site to 20 major search engines. Plus they would optimization on my key words before sbmiting to search engines which has not been done to date. Also they would create 5 banners for web site then submitted to me for review and approval which has not been done.Their is no external URL for affiliates to link to my pages.
I am feed up with no action from this company and want my money returned plus interest as storesonline are out to take money fron seniors like my self with no service in return. I gave my money in good faith for an internet business. This company should be charged with FRAUD and it's officals running the company. If possible would like to sue if my money not returned.
