I signed up for this service 2 years ago and it was a long, arduous process to set up with little benefit. When I called to cancel my service they talked me into a discounted monthly service at $49.99 per month.
They never got back in touch, in over a year. I've now been billed for over a year with 0 benefit. They refuse to refund me after multiple conversations.
I would like a refund of 14 months ($800).
They have a recording of my conversation agreeing to be billed monthly.
What kind of company takes money every month and remains silent? I feel this is very wrong.
I cancelled my service on 06/06/2017 and am still being billed!!!
I hired BeRanked sometime in 2016 to help with my online marketing & internet ranking, as promised they got me ranked and I started receiving calls reasonably quick. However they were mostly the wrong calls(95%)!
I am in a unique category of decorative concrete which I realize makes it hard to market my business. In June of this year(2016) I decided to cancel my BeRanked service and go in a different direction marketing wise. On 06/06/2017 I called and cancelled my BeRanked service. Because I have a bookkeeper that pays my bills and I don't review them every month I didn't realize till this past weekend (11/26/17) that the BeRanked service was still being billed...IT WAS NEVER CANCELLED!
Son on Monday 11/27/2017 I called on and talked to Emma at BeRanked and she verified in her notes that I had in fact cancelled my service on 06/06/2017. She said she immediately suspended my account that and would forward my request for a refund of 6 payments that should not have been drafted from my credit card. Emma indicated that I would receive a call back that day or no later than today. I waited till late this afternoon and still haven't received a call, so I called again and held on the line for at least 40 minutes and then got a generic message saying that no one was available. I have decided to be proactive and file a complaint to see if this will get them moving!
login screen
When I try and login to my beranked account with the screen that has the light gray background it always tells me my account is not valid. ( This has been going on for over a year) I can only login with the screen that has the dark background. Currently, I am not on my computer and can not find this login window, so I can not get to my account.
Can you help be find the login screen I need or make the light gray screen work for my account.

They promise you good ratings and that you own everything if you cancel. What they don't tell you is that when they release your listings/ website, that everything will be deleted and will hurt your ratings and loose your progress!
Sick absolutely sick what they did to me and now costing me thousand of dollars in lost not just from what they charge, but the lost of traffic I incurred and will keep incurring until I get my ratings back up.
Marketing website company in austin texas
This company is a total scam they promise things they don't accomplish . They don't have knowledge of your business they pretend to know about marketing and they don't, they don't care about their customers they just want your money and they never keep you updated of your website progress you have to keep calling them and they just try to end conversation saying that they are working on your account but is just lies.

John Sutton the sales person that sold me this crock of sh... promised me out the wazoo that I will be thrilled with the BeRanked results. He even brought his girlfriend into it saying how well he treats her, etc. (He stoops pretty low to use his GF to make a sale.) He told me everything that was a lie and nothing of truth especially one very important thing. My website needed to be mobile friendly. He finally blamed the failure and result of his lies that it was my fault because my website wasn't mobile friendly. After 3 months I couldn't reach him anymore. He had very nice young lady techies call me back and try to make it good but it never did. I received two phone calls total in one year. Neither one of them was a lead. I kept trying to call John but he avoided me, of course, and the nice young techies kept saying my ranking was good but still nothing. I get it now what they do. They ask for 15 key word phrases and promise that once a day my website will rank. I stopped checking because the odds of that producing a lead are extremely low. I have a better chance hitting the lottery. I am writing this complaint because BeRanked hires the most crafty, lying sales people and I am telling the public that they are a fraud. The technicians I must say are nice but they don't really know they are working for a company that will rip anybody off just to make a sale. I am a very small business owner barely surviving and BeRanked sees me as just another sucker. Well, maybe so because of John Sutton's expertise at lying but that will never happen again.

I lost hundreds of $ in business due to these scam artists. Not only did they provide me with no service (just hijacked my good internet presence and took credit for it) but they left a nonfunctioning phone number on my searches which meant customers couldn't reach me at all and even thought I was closed. The negative reviews I received during this time, ruined my exceptional rating. TERRIBLE company!
Use caution!
You should also know that these guys are also
Ad IQ. When I tried to cancel, I was given a line of bs f from Tammy that she'd been with AdIQ for 10 years & they are not, nor were they ever BeRanked (Funny, they've only been in business for 3 years!
Plus, I put the puzzle together myself when noticed the same fake testimonials on BOTH websites (they must think I'm stupid!) + posting a picture of a contract that lists both companies as 1 and the same! : )
AVOID! They are liars & I cannot work with someone who lies to me! Why lie? Because you are hiding something!
Plus, + think about this.. why would they delete their Yelp and Google pages...? To hide all the negative reviews so you don't find out the truth..
These guys are a TOTAL SCAM. I also contracted for a 3 month guarantee and all I received were emails with spam calls that beranked labeled as leads. They kept on billing me after 3 months and would not refund our money. We lost $1, 400 with them. Stay away from them
I signed up for three months and they have been deducting money from my bank account for one year
What a rip off!
These people have provided no value to my at all and I have received no follow up service from any customer rep after a number of emails sent to them. Absolutely nothing for the fees they are charging
Don't fall for their promises of better placement on Google searches. If anything the placement of my business has worsened since they had me sign up to their program. Pissed off in Canada!
This company is the worst ! They are scammers, they continuously feed you lies, when you call to cancel they give you the run around. They did absolutely nothing for me. DO NOT USE BeRanked !...Every time you call you get a new person... who tells you, you're on the first page, i saw no results with them and when I called to cancel they removed all the listing they posted for me...its like i didn't pay for anything! someone should sue them, they need to be banned. Again DO NOT USE BeRANKED, they are highly unethical
It's really, REALLY strange how each of these "complaints" come from accounts that are brand new, with no other reviews or complaints, and they are all quite similar. I've noticed this while researching this company for myself before moving forward...the "complaints" would be convincing if the person obviously trying to sabotage them hadn't been so overzealous in doing so. On one site they even go on to promote another similar company...tsk, tsk. You should be ashamed of yourself, "Mr. Hacker"...(ONE of the fake aliases). I really would like some actual, genuine feedback for BeRanked.com from an actual customer, and you're just making it more time consuming for me to do so.
I was an actual customer. They lie.
Wow! These people are SO RUDE. And the have NOTHING to offer. You can do all this SEO stuff for free.
DO NOT sign up with BeRanked. They charge you astronomical fee's when you try to cancel after they do not deliver on their promises.
They say that they will get you on the first page of Google - and it is a LIE. Customer service is awful and we have not gotten any leads from them and have paid out of 800.00.
The cancellation department is the worst - they are rude, inconsiderate it and even cursed at me over the phone after they tried to bulling me into paying their ridiculous UNDISCLOSED cancellation fee's.
They were horrible and unprofessional. Getting mad and acting like a child when I told them their service was not satisfactory (paid hundreds of dollars for a fake lead). In fact their "marketing experts" will tarnish your brand with their tacky websites that look spammy. I am a photographer and they put up photos that weren't even mine and didn't even match my style or brand (some marketing expert...)
Fantastic customer service - Gave me the run around when I wanted to cancel, gave me attitude to the point of snapping and hanging up on me. Chris just acted like a child when I told him I didn't want to be apart of their scam anymore.
Do not fall for their scam. Google does not have an SEO company. There are no partnered SEO companies.
This company charged me hundreds of $ and did nothing to improve my internet visibility. They no longer answer my queries. Just as well as previous answers were not really answers but stalling tactics to keep billing me.
Do not use this company, period.
