I also have had a very bad experience with Pioneer Advantage leads and Dan Rude. After having a pleasant interaction on the phone I placed an initial order for vacant property leads. When I received the list and reviewed it I was very surprised by what I saw. The most obvious error was that out of 494 entries (which I paid for per entry) 184 showed the same owner with a different PO Box for each entry, yet current records don't show that person as owning a single property! Digging into it further and spot checking the data found many similar errors--many people were listed multiple times with separate PO Boxes yet it didn't match up with current records. At best, I paid for many more leads than I received. At worst, the data was completely innaccurate and useless.
I emailed back and forth with Dan and he insisted that he had researched the data and it was accurate. His answers didn't make sense and were completely contradicted by what I could see in public records. I asked for my money back because the data was useless to me, and was told that orders are non-refundable and the most I could have was a credit on a future order. I told them I didn't want that, I wanted accurate data. They continued to insist they gave me exactly what I agreed to on the invoice.
Any attempt to call and talk to somebody on the phone was futile--I was either directed to email, chat, or eventually somebody's voicemail. A chat conversation ended with "email us and we'll look into it". Email with Customer Service only got me the same canned response: "we're sorry you're not happy with your order and would be happy to give you a credit on a future order".

I am writing to address the false, hurtful and slanderous posts made about myself and my family. The information contained here is 100% false and fabricated to be hurtful. The posts are made by Jason Matthew Innes who was a childhood friend from East Grand Forks, MN and now maybe Bozeman MT.
He is a very bad person. He has mental illness problems for a long time and has
been admitted to mental institutions in Grand Forks ND in 1990 and The Kootenai
Medical psych ward in 2005 on suicide watch. There may be other admissions that
I am not aware of and below is a partial arrest record.
State of Idaho vs. Jason Matthew Innes
Case: CR-2004-0023771 Magistrate Judge: Scott Wayman
Charges: 10/12/2004 I18-903 Battery
Arresting Officer: Odell K30, Dan, CDA
04/18/2005 Warrant Issued - Bench Bond amount: 10000.00 Failure to Appear For Hearing
State of Idaho vs. Jason Matthew Innes
Case: CR-2004-0017491 Magistrate Judge: Scott Wayman
Charges: 07/30/2004 I39-6312 Domestic Violence-violation Of Protection Order
Arresting Officer: LEONARD, PAT, PFPD 60396 Finding: Guilty
He has also lied online about being a retired Army Ranger
and veteran of combat in Afghanistan. This is not true and disgraceful to actual combat veterans
My family and I are Christians and will continue to pray for him and we tried to help this mentally ill person and instead he turned his rage on us. We hired him as a sub contractor to give him a source of income becausehe always had a difficult time holding a job but we had to terminate him for using profanity and being hostile with our customers. When we terminated him he became disgruntled and began harming our companys reputation online by posting false and slanderous information about us and our company anonymously. None of it is legitimate. We have had over 7,000 customers being in business for over
12 years. We have an A rating with the BBB. We will do our best to make sure each and every client is taken care of to the best of our ability. We have had a very low number of people over the years that we just couldnt satisfy and
that is regrettable. When you are in business for so many years it does happen and we wish everyone was happy with our business. Mention this post and we will give you a free test of our services with no obligation so you can see for
yourself that we offer excellent products and services for mortgage and real estate and are a very legitimate and reputable business.
There are several, maybe hundreds of web sites dedicated to exposing fake post sites . One of our good clients recently went into the site to post a positive comment but it just made it look worse by placing a more current date by the listing. We have since been warned not to do anything to the post or it will make it worse. However, I felt I must address the false
information. Other web sites will not list these posts because some are fake. Some want a lot of money to remove fake posts. Please keep in mind that every major company that you do business with has negative posts. Google, Wal-mart,
Verizon & ATT to list a few. When a company has been in business a long time and has dealt with thousands of customers it is inevitable that you will be listed there. If you have questions about our company call us directly and talk to a live person. We will provide you whatever you need to feel comfortable about doing business with us

Pioneer info is simply put...a SCAM! This is a husband and wife team who make up a "GET RICH Scam" and Lie about the size of thier company. They work out of there home in hayden Idaho. Do not trust them with your money. My friend worked for them and got fired when she tried to blow the whistle on the way they "steal" from people! She is a very sweet honest person and they didnt even care that they fired her! Anything to do with DAN and STACY RUD of hayden Idaho. My "2 cents " are stay away!! And the comment from dave...is im sure from DAN himself!! Buyer BEWARE!!! Just not right! The picture of "corp" headquarters on there website isnt there office..they only have a PO box.

I was looking up pioneerinfo to get their number to contact them and saw this report. I have used Pioneer Info for lists for several years for telemarketing and they have always provided good data for our calling and we have always closed several deals from their lists. i have found Dan to be very helpful and accessable. Just my two cents but I felt compelled to comment, thanks, Dave
