SELLERS PHONE: [protected]

Called this # after seeing the ads and some of my questions were regarding the health conditions screenings, whether they have chronic eye problems (because a TON of the photos she's showing they have very tear-stained fur and possibly irritated looking eyes). She seemed almost like she had to think about the answers she was giving and said it in a way that was trying to make me believe her. But when someone does that you DONT believe them. Not if you really know how to read people. I found it very fishy and uneducated sounding the minute she answered the first question. And she NEVER answered my questions regarding some of the following:

Breathing problems
Cherry eye
Entropion (abnormal eyelid)
Progressive retinal atrophy
Feline hyperesthesia syndrome (nervous system condition)
Polycystic kidney disease
Seborrhea oleosa (skin condition)

They can be very prone to these conditions but with good breeding any breeder should be breeding to minimize or possibly eradicate some of these conditions from their cats and they should be able to straight away answer questions about it. So...I told her I was NOT interested and I changed my mind after all. So what does she do? Keep trying to call my number! Seriously. I've had several phone calls within the past 2 days. NOT HAPPY. I simply don't answer it. And I noticed how she never leaves a message. BEWARE OF SHADY SELLERS ON HOOBLY

I have been trying to send a message tiff1982 for several days inquiring about purchasing a basset hound puppy. I have had no response. I just recently signed up to Hoobly. Is this a common practice? Nothing shows in my Sent folder, although it does show under the listing when I open it. I have requested that the owner call me, to no avail. I'm not confident that they received my message.
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Barbara

I have an account with a cat for sale. I set up a special email account for this purpose only. Now, the email address that I set up is forgotten, because I had to attempt it so many times, that I forgot it what they finally accepted. Now, for legal reasons, I need that account/ad closed and REMOVED.

Phone number listed is a hispanic man who says the same thing over and over.

User nbpuppy777 is a fraudulent man by the name of Nick (Nickolas) Bianconi along with his wife Jenny (Eun Jung) Bianconi are selling puppies from James Cliett a man that has been reported to the humane society for running a puppy mill. Nick poses as the breeder but he's not. They are selling a variety of dogs that are ill and sick. They are located in Dawsonville and may list their puppies in various cities in the Georgia area. They are using various of numbers [protected], [protected], [protected]. Their email is [protected]@yahoo.com

I purchased a kitten from a breeder 3 weeks ago. Last Tuesday I found the kitten unresponsive and rushed her to an after hours emergency vet clinic. The kitten was tested for everything and was positive for parvo. She had to be rushed to a veterinarian hospital where she remained for 3 days. The bill for all of this was $3, 200 after I already paid $1, 200 for the cat with a "clean bill of health." This is very disappointing because when someone purchases an expensive breed like this, one does not imagine a couple short weeks later going through something like this that was financially and emotionally draining. Upon reaching out to said breeder and sending her copies of all the bills she did not even offer to help with ANY of it. Instead she sent me pics of another cat that I could get telling me that this one was going to die! What the?! It's just such bad business. People should really try to just do the right thing. Bad experience all around.

Someone hacked my hoobly account, who does this crap. I reset my password and it was fine for a couple of days. Now I cannot access it. I tried to reset my password but when i enter the temporary password nothing happens. I tried to register another email account. Registered just fine but cannot log into it or reset my password. I have called and left numerous messages and emails to no avail. Why would you have a service with no caring support?

Hi,

my husband saw a add on hobbly classfields and contacted the person that was selling puppies. He claims that he is a breeder. We are from Canada so discussed shipping costs. Even spoke with a shipper that he uses and spoke with a customer that he had sold a puppy to. He claimed that he had to have full payment because once he registers these puppies its the name that goes on the paperwork. we needed all paperwork because we were bringing the puppy into Canada. We hired a shipper but he go into an argument with the shipper we hired and the shipper then did not feel comfortable going to this person's house. then he said he found us a shipper. We paid the shipper and then never heard back from the shipper. he claims that he didn't pay the shipper enough and claims that the puppy was picked up. he never got back to us for days. Now he is claiming that he has nothing to do with this. we have paid him approx. $3000 for the puppy. He is scamming people and then threatening them. His name is Michael Hare, 1-205-644-2126. His username with you is ext - member since Sept 5, 2017.

I will be contacting all authorities to report this, Please advise if there is anything that you can do about this. Please remove all his adds from your classfields before this happens to someone else. I have reported the adds online.

greatly appreciate if you can get back to us in a timely manner. The puppy was being purchased for our daughters.

Thank you

This is the only information I have regarding my now deceased puppy I purchased from this website only 2 short days ago on September 20th 2018. Purchased a male from an ad stating they just wanted a good home for their babies, we had planned to meet them Sunday September 23 2018, but they pushed us into getting him on the 20th, and now we know why, they knew he was deathly I'll, our vet that we racked up hundreds of dollars trying to save the little guy said he must have been very sick for a very long time. I will not be using this site again, the fraudulent post has cost us a lot of heart ache and a ton of money

I recently placed an ad on hoobly to adopt a cat and within few days later the website suspended me and wrote on my ad that buyers should be cautious! I have not done anything wrong and need this problem fixed as soon as possible! I never received any emails explaining why this has happened, neither help to trouble shoot, now I am trying to login and it won't allow that either, please help.

Hi,
I have used Hoobly for years. [protected]@southlawgroup.com There are some glitches with my account.
Recently when I tried to post an ad, there was a glitch and it just kept sending me back to the account profile page. I couldn't figure it out, so I tried to set up a new account, [protected]@attykats.com. I was able to post an ad there, but this morning it said the account was temporarily unavailable. I figured you guys must want me to upgrade my membership. I went back to my main account, [protected]@southlawgroup.com, spent 2 hours trying to figure out how to use Bitcoin. Bought $36 in Bitcoin, sent it to m account ([protected]@southlawgroup.com) and the money posted to my account. I purchased 4 months of Bronze membership. I was successful and my account reflects the purchase. Now - I STILL can't post ads. When I click the post an ad button, it still takes me to my account profile page and I can't post an ad. HELP! text or call me at [protected]. Next problem is that my password is saved on my computer. When I tried to enter my password here to file this complaint, I couldn't remember it and tried to reset it. It asked me to enter my email address, and I did, [protected]@southlawgroup.com and Hoobly said it did not recognize the address! I entered my back up address, [protected]@me.com and it did not recognized that one either. I need one working account with the $36 credit for 4 months of bronze. I need to be able to post ads I would prefer to use the [protected]@attykats.com but dont know how to transfer money to that account. Ugh. Please help.
Thank you! I have a litter of kittens to post and want to post them today!

Hi Seller
I'm okay with the price, payment will be sent to you which will be in form of a United States Postal Service Money Order or Cashiers Check, it'll be mailed through the courier service and i will also arrange for a shipping agent to come for the pick up right after payment is delivered. I'll like you to hold on it for this time frame and disregard any other inquiries.

The information below would be needed to send out the payment;

First and Last names(which will be issued on the Payment)
Physical home address
Phone numbers

I'm hearing impaired the only way I communicate is via email and text message i hope that's okay by you, Am traveling very soon but i intend to send the payment before my departure so you should consider me your buyer, however I'm still trying to get in touch with the shipping agent who would be responsible for the pick up and delivery to my new resident, he's an interstate shipping agent and could be anywhere in the country now but if i don't get a hold of him before my departure I would be compelled to include his fee to the payment that would be sent to you, when i get a hold of him he'll provide his information of how you can get his fee to him.

Hope to read back from you soon so that I can proceed with the payment asap...okay

Thanks

Im selling a goat! this is crazy! received this response at 9/1/18 at 1:20p

The buyer sent a cashier's check for the dog plus she agreed to also buying a puppy from a future litter I have coming. She included the shipping in the check for a dog her daughter owner and needed to be sent from Kansas. She sent the check for $2250. I was to deduct $600 for the dog and $300 for the deposit on the puppy due in October and I was to give the remainder to the driver taking my dog and her daughter's dog to Indiana.
I informed her that I would be unable to send the dog until the bank cleared the funds and she insisted the money would be available in 24-48 hours. That check went into the bank around 3:12 PM and the bank called me about a half hour later and said the issuing bank never sent the cashier's check.
I have all the information plus a photo copy of check front and back. I also have all emails from this entire incident. This all took place 8/17-8/22/18. The posts were from stacifaye00877 and the email address is [protected]@gmail.com.
I lost no money but I thought that you should know in case she tries again and is successful.

Both phone numbers listed are fakes. I just want my Hoobly account DELETED. I do not need it. Why is it impossible to do so? I am getting tons of spam and my laptop has been acting up since I joined. DELETE MY ACCOUNT! DELETE MY ACCOUNT! DELETE MY ACCOUNT! DELETE MY ACCOUNT! DELETE MY ACCOUNT! DELETE MY ACCOUNT! DELETE MY ACCOUNT! DELETE MY ACCOUNT! DELETE MY ACCOUNT! DELETE MY ACCOUNT! DELETE MY ACCOUNT! DELETE MY ACCOUNT! DELETE MY ACCOUNT! THIS IS A HUGE SCAM!

you need to fix your website... i am tired of making new accounts and having to keep re-verifying ALL of the emails you insist ppl have in order to open an account..and you keep removing mine for NO reason.. i have used hoobly for years and this recent change you have started doing is ridiculous and NOW i can not edit my listing NOR post a new one.. Hoobly used to be a very professional site for many breeders and others business owners to use however...now you have become as good as Craigslist..especially for the hoops you make people jump through just to get an account opened...i am now taking my business elsewhere... and try answering your messages or making it to where ppl may email you if issues arise..
My website is AKC registered and i follow all the guidelines and rules

Messages are not working. Your service used to be the best free advertising application online. However, I haven't been able to send and have not received a message from a customer for 3 months since I deleted all old out of date messages. I used to enjoy using your service. Other customers are noting that messages are not working in posted ads. Please correct this.

Hello I have an account under the email [protected]@yahoo.com im selling sphynx kittens. It was suspended and people are being warned about dealing with me. Why? I was given no reason and this is slanderous. Please explain why I should be warned about and why my account was abruptly suspended with no warning whatsoever. I find it extremely rude. Thank you.

I have tried to get a response from a person selling a dog and have left several messages with no response. Hoobly will not verify if the messages were received and if the dog is still available. They are very poor in customer service and should not be offering a service if they don't intend to help customers. I tried to find out about about a GS puppy in Mount Airy for sale contact person blcrouse612 and asked Hoobly to help me. No response there either. Can't tell if seller is getting my messages. No way to verify and Hoobly won't check even though they can. Lousy company.

I have been in constant contact with a breeder in my area to purchase a puppy. I was told the puppy I was interested in was available. I have tried for two days to get the breeder to contact me for information as to how I would get the puppy (i.e. the address). I was planning to leave tomorrow and the breeder knew that. However the breeder has not responded to my messages at all for two days and now the ad is not posted.

I called the customer service number only website [protected] and a Latino man answered and immediately started calling a MF. I thought I might have misdialed and called back again with same man calling me an MF.

I will be filing a complaint with the BBB regarding this whole process. This appears to be some kind of scam website.
