Your review of the company is unfortunate. SEO really does work - when its done properly. The only problem is there are so many snake oil companies out there that woo consumers with their fancy marketing material and high pressured sales pitches. My suggestion to you is to work with a company that truly has your best interest in mind. Check out SEARCHADVISOR.ORG . They are a performance based SEO service that only gets paid when you rank on the first page of Google for your chosen keywords. If you don't rank, you don't pay a nickel. That's how SEO marketing should be done!

You can strike back at Yodle if you have been wronged and they have acted in the ways stated on this board- which are violations of Google Partners and without a relationship with Google Yodle will be hurting. I am very serious here these steps below can really have a strong BITE so use them if you have been legitimately wronged and it will hurt them.
Here is the best way to get these guys thrown off google
Go to this link for a Google complaint http://support.google.com/adwords/bin/request.py?&contact_type=gap_complaint
1. Make a third party adwords complaint telling Google they misrepresented themselves as being part of Google. This is a BIG no no and will get Googles attention and may get you some satisfaction (refund if you are owned etc) On the complaint form specify that this company told you they were GOOGLE when they called (if that is what you feel has happened) On the complaint form let Google know you have complained (see below) to the BBB and attorney generals office http://support.google.com/adwords/bin/request.py?&contact_type=gap_complaint
ALSO make a similar complaint if you were not shown EXACTLY what Yodle paid for those links from Google and if your local listing has been HIJACKED with a different number put on them.
It is a violation of Google Partner policy to charge you for calls for sign ups from things that you should be getting free like local listings and map listings.
2. Make a complaint to the bbb (bbb.org) about Yodle if you have been wronged.
3. Make a complaint to the Attorney General in Your state AND New York where Yodle is located
4. Make a complaint to the Federal Trade Commision and dispute the charge if they fraudulently charged their card.
It is most important that you fill out the Google Form and also Yodle MUST SHOW you how much THEY PAY FOR CLICKS-- if they do not Yodle is in violation of Google Policies and this will get you the relief you need Stop letting these guys ruin and take advantage of small businesses
