EDitor's UPDATE: Positive rating and recognition has been given to Qazzoo for its full commitment to quality customer service.
Ripoff Report's discussions with Qazzoo have uncovered an ongoing dedication by the company to total client satisfaction. This means that clients can expect that the company will work towards finding a mutually satisfactory resolution to any concerns. Qazzoo listens carefully to client concerns and sees them as an opportunity to learn from past mistakes and become more efficient as a company in the services offered and the support for those services.
Qazzoo's Founder and CEO, Mr. Michael Urbanski, has informed us that his personal philosophy is that his clients success are at the very heart of the business. As a successful businessman, Mr. Urbanski feels it is critical to listen to his clients and respond promptly and properly. By putting his customers first, Mr. Urbanski hopes to maintain and grow Qazzoo organically as a successful enterprise for many years to come. Mr.Urbanski’s personal business philosophy is based on the premise that "strives to innovate and make business simpler and less expensive using technology to add value in service, understanding that a successful business model is based on value-added services, and client care". Qazzoo’s Ryan Stevenson says this, "We are the only company that I know of that spends as much time on customer care in a personal way that I have ever heard of. We put the customer first and ourselves second and that is why we are able to grow and experience such great customer loyalty.
With us, you'll always receive a simple solution as we pride ourselves at making it easier for business’s to succeed" One of the things Ripoff Report learned in the course of its review is that typical customer feedback reads, "Qazzoo truly communicated the aspects of the service in a timely and effective manner. We are very pleased with the responsiveness that the employees have shown us. They are serious about meeting commitments, and delivering on their promises."
Ripoff Report Verified™ .. part of Ripoff Report Corporate Advocacy Business Remediation & Customer Satisfaction Program.A program that benefits the consumer, assures them of complete satisfaction and confidence when doing business with a member business..
The information provided in this report below is based on comments made by Michael Urbanski during an onsite inspection held by a third party verification company with no biases toward Qazzoo.
Qazzoo.com is an innovative website that has taken advertising and flipped it around. Instead of passive advertising Qazzoo.com allows real estate agents to search on a natural language search engine looking for home buyers and sellers in the geographic areas they wish to search. Michael Urbanski further stated, "with Qazzoo.com the real estate agent is now in the seat of control...on doing that search the real estate agent can read the entire profile that was self-generated by the consumer and then select the consumers they wish to work with." Qazzoo.com allows for real estate agents to have ultimate flexibility, "they are no longer restricted to a specific zip code they have the entire nation to choose from."
Leads for Qazzoo.com are self-generated through advertising campaigns on various forms of social media including: Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. They also have various advertisements on Google. Mr. Urbanski further explained their marketing strategy, "our basic pitch is 'stop searching and get found', and that works very well for us." Once a real estate agent has expressed interest in their program they can sign up on a month to month basis. They can download a mobile app that is connected to Qazzoo.com, and leads can be sent directly to their phone.
CUSTOMER CARE & COMPLAINT RESOLUTION FROM QAZZOO
During the onsite interview, Mr. Urbanski was asked to describe a situation where a client was not satisfied with the level of service they received. Mr. Urbanski described a situation that resulted in a valued employee, Jennifer Jordan, resigned from her position from Qazzoo.com. A client called Ms. Jordan at 6:00pm on a Friday night, and again on Saturday afternoon. While the client was aware of Qazzoo.com's operating hours, but was upset that he was unable to get in contact with Ms. Jordan. On Monday Ms. Jordan reached out to the client in order to assist him and assure him that his calls were not ignored. The client understood, and was ultimately satisfied. Sadly, Ms. Jordan was greatly effected by the situation, and decided to resign.
When asked to comment on complaints posted on Ripoff Report's website Mr. Urbanski explained that at one point they offered a package for $99 that would provide real estate agents with a set number of leads. The client in question claimed four leads, and didn't get any responses for those leads, "therefore she determined those leads were fake." She responded by yelling at Qazzoo.com's customer service agents, and was still unresponsive when she was offered a refund. As part of Qazzoo.com's policy is a lead is found to be false, the client will be refunded any lead that doesn't have the correct information, "it's unlike any other guarantee online."
When asked what type of changes they have made to honor their commitment to make things right with the customer per the request of Ripoff Report, Mr. Urbanski expressed that Heavy Hammer has, "beefed up the client services department."
Qazzoo.com is proud to be a part of Ripoff Reports Corporate Advocacy Business Remediation and Customer Satisfaction Program. Mr. Urbanski further stated, "we are looking forward to helping our clients resolve problems and giving the best service possible. We believe Ripoff Report can help us do that."

The best lead source I’ve ever used!” - Eric C. - Chicago, Il

NOW TO THE ORIGINAL REPORT THAT WAS FILED
----------------------------------
Qazzoo Deceptive fraudulent lead generation for Realtors Nationwide
Promised and no delivery. This company is a rip off. Promising leads via the internet.Leads that I contacted either never have contacted this company, or are not in need of a realtor, or are not the person displayed on the photo and never provided a photo. The majority of ads I have received were leads with applicants offering 20,000 to 25,000 down payment on a $500,000 and over property. Some even posted that they were looking for a million plus property with $20,000 cash.
Initially whenI talked to one of the representatives I was told that one of their leads recently was by passed by one realtor and the other realtor called immediately and gained a 30 million dollar sale. This was to encourage my to call asap. Which is within their right and the normal process of working with leads, only the majority were fake leads.
I requested my money back and never heard from that company again. All Realtors should be very aware of that outfit. They should not be in business.
