Ypedia.com Deceptive Business Practices Irving Texas Internet
As a new business owner, I receive multiple pieces of mail asking me to verify my listings for the various websites that aggregate informatin such as Google, Yellowpages.com, etc..
I received a piece of mail from a company that used the Yellow Pages Logo and referred to themselves as Yellow Pages Online Services asking me to "Verify" my listing and stating that "This Is Not A Bill" in very large font on the front of the statment. I filled out the form and sent it in
A couple of weeks later, I receive an invoice from the company in the amount of $329. I called the 800# to ask why I was receiving the bill and I learned that this company is NOT Yellowpages.com as they have led me to believe and that what I had filled out had given them permission to charge me $329 for six months of a listing on an UNKNOWN website called Ypedia.com. I asked them to remove the charges as I did not want this service and they have refused. I asked to speak to a supervisor twice and was simply transferred into a voicemail and have not recieved a call back.
If you ever get a statement from "Yellow Pages Online Services" asking you to verify your business listing, DO NOT send it back in!!

So a few hours after posting on Ripoff Report, I received a call from a very nice gentleman named Jose Garza, who offered to cancel my account and zero out the $329 charge. Thank you, Mr. Garza . . . and THANK YOU Ripoff Report for allowing consumers and businesses a VERY LOUD VOICE when they need it.
