No one there when I answered. I tried pressing ###### to try to dump the call. Someone came on the line and said hello and then disconnected.

Get a life you say? I run a emergency 24 hour 7 day a week business and these [***] keep calling 10 times a day. And yes I get every frigg'n call.
They are telemarketing SPAM and nothing else!

When the phone rang for the fourth time this morning, I finally was at a point I could stop working and take the call. Had to say "Hello" three times before someone picked up. (I was anxious to get these calls over with.) ZipWeb. I was to be the featured blah blah blah... I explained I'm a small home-based business w/ a limited clientele, I don't require this type of advertising and asked if my name could be removed from their list. The rep assured me it could. That was the end of the call, and hopefully will be the end of their calls!

Yep .... they called a couple of times today and they never speak, just hang up. Oh but that's right I must be making this up and according to "areuserious" I should give them a break. Now there's someone who doesn't have a life other then to promote these guys as something good. Notice of course that "areuserious " didn't share with us what the great service he receives from "them".

Are you serious?  These blogs are great.  These people A)Need to learn how to speak English and B)Anybody who is conned by these people is just a *****ing idiot. Be rude, have fun with them.  I look forward to their calls - it's great to screw with them!!! HA HA Dude, I can't believe you pay those fools.  If that is indicative of how you run your company, you will most likely be out of business in the next year.  MORON!!!

I am slowly defecting from this scam company..they unlawfully record your phone conversation, that is they do not tell you they are recording your conversation they just find a way to get you to say Yes and tie you into a 49.95 or 99.95 charge...be careful, also check your local laws, you may have been scammed by someone UNLAWFULLY recording your conversation.

e-mail the bosses..tell 'em how you really feel..

Got another call from them today, 800 222 5529 and they said they are from zipweb.com again with another agent. I researched it down and it came from:

I hanged up on them... I knew that this is a SCAM!!! They are calling me and asking me all of my information? Nobody would give information over the phone, regardless... I told them that if they are calling me and they have all my information then why do they need them to call me again?

REPORT THEM !!!

I am dealing with this company right now.  They call and attempt to solicit the word yes from your lips by asking confirmation questions.  I have noticed in all of the complaints that this seems to be a bigger problem in California.  I am in Colorado, so maybe they have moved on to a new target group.  No good reviews to be found, unless you beleive the scabs on some of the comment logs.

Watch out for the scabs in this blog in fact, why would someone google this company's phone number if they already have an account with them??  I have seen this before, a litany of bad reviews, mostly ending with a call to a local attorney general, and a couple of the "you are all crazy" posts from someone who is pretty obviously a member of the company.  It is very easy to claim to be a satisfied customer, and there is a great motivation for it, increase profits.  There is conversly no reason to post negative comments, you don't see people complaining about Merril Lynch cold calling marks to charge $50 non refundable per month to your phone bill.  If they were reputable they would probably bill by means of invoices like real companies.

Watch, I'll submit a false happy customer review to prove my point.

I love the little do-hicky false local search engine that these geniuses at zipweb established.  They list my company first on a web search site that NO ONE USES, thereby getting me pretty much nothing, all for the price of $50 a month.  I hear you, that sounds like alot, but they actually don't even charge you (directly).  You just pay the bill along with your oh so cheap phone bill.  No hassle with contracts, looking for a real SEO specialist, or even with refunds (refunds are unavailable).  This is such a great deal that everybody here is attacking them, probably just trying to establish a search engine do-hicky of their own, the jealous crazies.

Sincerely,
A Big Fat Liar

nice try big fat liar, but I can see a scam coming.  Too bad that everyone can't come prewired to detect scams.  I personally had to be scammed by a similar ploy, fight and win my money back to learn my lesson.  

Please learn from other people's as well as your own mistakes when dealing with these or other parasitic companies.  

Take the advice of the folks on this blog when you get a call from 800-222-5529, waste as much of their time as you possibly can (time is money when dealing with a telemarketer) without once uttering the word yes (or any other affirmation for that matter), and end the conversation by telling them you are not an owner or manager, and therefore cannot authorize any new services.  

If you have extra time on your hands then do not ask to be put on a no-call list, as you can repeat the process over and over until maybe you can cost them a whole month of ill-gotten gains, but if you don't want to hear from them again tell them to remove your number from their call lists (a great thing to do to any telemarketer, as they must stop calling anyone while they fill out the number removal form).

Got a call claiming they would feature me on an online search for no charge and would send a confirmation.  I never received such a confirmation and when I called back I was put on interminable hold.  Think this is another scam taking the time of hard working business owners.

areuserious obviously works for the company, evisibility, and is trying to spin the bad press. Perhaps he/ she should follow their own advice and get a life, because by posting in this forum they are contradicting their statements. Blog sites like this one exist so that crappy companies like evisibility don't take advantage of people. They are obviously liars, look at the client list again, shady mortgage companies and small businesses that no one has heard of. McDonalds? Yeah right, fast food? Buyer beware, this company is laughable. Don't do business with Evisibility.

I just opened my phone bill to find that a $52.45 charge was made to AT&T for this scam called zipwideweb.com.  They called me on 4/15/08, and I was on a do not call list at the time, and they offered me their FREE month of advertising my business.  They told me to call 1 800 222=5529 by 5/14/08 to cancel and that a rep would get ahold of me before then to see if I wanted to keep or cancel their service.  When I called today and talked to a woman there she told me that I could not have the charge taken off my bill for this month, but she would take it off for next month!  I told her I had done everything they told me to cancel and she said that she had not proof I had ever called!  I asked for the phone number of Mark Robles whom I first spoke to and she told me she could not give out his number as he was in a foriegn country and it was 3:00 a.m. there!

I told her that I would not pay this bill and I was reporting to the BBB and the District Attorney in Encino where their supposed business headquaters is located at 16133 Ventura Blvd. 91436.  

What a scam!!

I cannot believe our politicians, the CPUC or FCC won't do anything about this situation.  

While I either don't answer calls from 800 numbers or hang up on them, my husband is kind and respectful so he listens patiently to their long, incoherent babble.

After getting nowhere with any of the three people I spoke with when I called to tell them I never authorized a charge on my AT&T bill, they claimed my husband did and graciously sent me a recorded copy of my husband's conversation --yes, I am being sarcastic, but they really did record the conversation and did email a copy to me so I could listen.

The call was ridiculous.  Their sales person from oversees barely speaks english -problem #1. He rambles on very quickly to keep my husband from being able to speak or ask questions which he tried to do many times throughout the call -typical sales pattern adn problem #2.  He was told free service, no charge to you, etc. multiple times to gain his trust, another cheesy sales tactic.  Convinced my husband to please look at the package that they are sending in the mail and if he doesn't like what he reads, he will have 30 days to respond - this is where I say sucker, but then again my husband believed he would have 30 days from receipt of package - which never arrived.  As anyone who has dealt with this organization believes the 'package" probably does not exist. Given the package never arrived, he had no way to review and cancel.  They claim that given my husband said "Yes" when the sales person asked him if he had the authority to make decisions based on behalf of the business that his reply meant "yes, I agree to your terms"  and "sure, charge my wife's phone" -- something that if you knew my husband would know he would NEVER allow.  

Now this is the amusing part, the business is a property management gig for one small building that does not need or have a web presence, nor need any advertising as there is generally a waiting list for the building, nor does my husband even know what the package or service was supposed to provide, let alone about keywords, google search, and the rapid fire babble taht flowed from the dude overseas...the guy just rambled and my husband was being kind.

The peeve is the lack of ethics and good business practice. They billed my personal telephone line without my consent and not the phone line of the company my husband used to work for (he quit last month).  I would get it and move on if the fact was simply that my husband had ben scammed, but they charged MY phone bill.  His name is not on my account, and he wouldn't even be able to call my provider and make any changes to my services without me getting on the phone because he is NOT AUTHORIZED on my personal account. So how is it that this company can dump a charge on my bill like that and AT&T allows it?  Their fraud department took the charge off my bill, but said they (The Billing Resource) will try to collect it using other methods.

I cancelled my service with AT&T today over this matter, even though they took the charge off my bill after wasting nearly two hours talking with three different departments.  I have read too many other posts where the unsuspecting victim thought the issue was resolved and the charges started to pop up a few months later all over again.  

Poor AT&T, maybe after they lose a large number of loyal customers, they will figure out that they should first confirm with their customers that they did in fact authorize a charge before allowing it to go through. These scam artists are ruining customer realtionships for legitimate businesses.  I actually liked AT&T but cancelled on principal, and due to the fact that these fools may come back every so often and waste my time.

This group of companies is a joke - the CEO makes claims about incredible sales on prweb when all the are doing is slamming, cramming, whatever you want to call it - it is ripping people off.  They might be good at what they do for businesses who legitimately want their service.  But if they're so good, they would obtain clients/customers in an ethical manner. Not a good business model for long-term success.  Given all the complaints I've seen, it sounds like they don't care and they are proud of how they operate.

I always wondered what so many people in my neighborhood do for a living to to enable them to afford these big homes and 100k plus automobiles.  After looking into this scam, I have found that one of these [***] lives around the corner from me in Studio City, and the other up on the hill not too far away.  Now I know, it simply takes unethical business practices and scamming money out of kind people.  I'll keep my modest home and older Mercedes, thank you.

Unbelievable!  Wow, I feel better.  I love the internet - thanks for reading my rant!

I just phoned and politely asked to be taken off their call list.  The customer service rep said it would be done.

I have been receiving calls from this number for months. I always answer and they always hang up before saying a word. It has been so frustrating. First of all the services they offer are bogus. Most companies are listed with yahoo yellow pages or google maps for free. Second, their zipweb.com site is just a service of Google maps anyway. After I found this blog I started found www.ebridge.com and there is a listed phone number for the company of 323.525.3900. I called and the call was answered on the fist ring so I hung up and repeated that about 50 times. No I am just kidding. Seriously they answered after the first ring and I was able to give them my phone numbers to add to their do not call list. We will see if it works. I am a little worried that now they have my cell number from their caller ID.

Oh by the way I have no need for this type of service because one of the services that I provide is Google Rank improvement. So if you are looking for a legitimate company to help you with your Google page rank. Just go to www.thetechguyusa.com.

They called me just now, didn't say anything when I said Hello, so I hung up.

Just received the one call today, and looked it up on the net.  Called ATT and they will be blocking third party billing.  Problem solved - I hope.

This company is a fraud. Do not answer any of their questions! They will begin billing your phone and will not refund your money. Hang up immediately and call your phone company to request that a block be added to your account so that no third party accounts can bill you through your phone. If you do not do this you will have fraudulant charges beginning with your next phone bill. Then you will have to fight to get them taken off. Call your local congressman's office and request that they shut down this fraudulant company.
