Yext referral service (a bit OT for home repair)

Sounds like a scam, how do you prevent them for biling for every Tom Dick and Harry, whether it results in business or is a crank call??

That web site does not exist!!! Try reposting

I'm also thinking some thing doesn't sound right. Supposedly they monitor for key words, and don't bill for crank calls.

According to a post on a web forum from a company that tried Yext out, Yext automatically bills you for _every_ call they send through to your inbox. Because they use software to screen the calls, some junk calls do get through. At that point it is up to you to report the worthless calls to have them removed. Otherwise, you are charged for them as good calls. And they don't do refunds.

I see a revenge mechanism for use against certain business.

TDD

Seeing as how each undisputed call costs $17, I can see that also.

Me lets out a deep evil laugh. MUHAHAHAHA!

TDD

I just heard from the Yext people. The cheerful, perky lady on the phone sounded just astounded that I didn't want to sign up. She "couldn't understand" why. I explained it, and finally told her it wasn't my job to make her understand. She closed with "I can't believe you don't want to grow your busines/CLICK!!!" and the line went dead. Aparently, they have a very low tolerance for rejection.

I was a YEXT customer and that's what they tell you to get you to sign up your business for their service. But then they charge you for every crap call whether it leads to a paying customer or not. I reported garbage calls that were unintelligable and the transcript they send with the call was so disheveled and contentless as to be hilarious... yet they insisted on billing me for such calls. YEXT IS A TOTAL SCAM. Run screaming from their offers. YEXT ONLY WANTS TO RIP YOU OFF.
