Global Net Media

These people are crooks. If you signed up for their «product» of lead-​generation, call and cancel now. Even if you have to lose the initial set-​up fee of $ 139, cancel immediately. Be sure they send you confirmation of the cancellation. Otherwise, in a month, you will find your credit card debited in the amount of $ 417 because the $ 139 was their «introductory offer.» They are shameless scam artists. They need to be shut down.

DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!! They do not come through with their services. They said the 3 search phrases that I signed up for would bring my information onto the first page in a google search. Never did. They said people have been clicking and visiting my website. Interesting… now how could a prospect find me from their search phrases if my contact information does not appear on google from those 3 search phrases? Duh!!! I asked them to prove their statement that people were clicking on my information to bring them to my website and they could not. I wasted too much money for nothing. Then after I wanted to cancel, they offered various services for a 40% decrease in the monthly cost. NO, NO, NO!!! Then I asked for half reimbursement, thinking that was fair, and the only reimbursement I received as a prorated amount to the beginning of my billing timeframe for this month. Not good enough. DO NOT GET CAUGHT UP IN THEIR SALES PITCH. THIS IS A SCAM. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY! You will see nothing from it. I wish I had seen these reviews before I agreed to sign up. And they don’t even deserve this one star!

I thought I’d be original but I have to use words from other reviews I wish I had read the reviews before I gave them my debit card number. Good salespeople terrible product and even worse customer service. First, there is no way to communicate with them via email. All their emails say PLEASE DO NOT REPLY TO THIS EMAIL. Telephone is the only way and always 15 or more minutes wait. Since June I have asked them to cancel my account but they keep ignoring it. Instead they promised a website they cannot build and offer free programs that do nothing for me (I’m a realtor).
The worst company I ever worked with.

THIS IS A WASTE OF TIME, MONEY AND ENERGY! We used the product for 2 months and received absolutely NO business from theses ads and when I called to cancel they said we ha to pay the next months fees before we cancel! THen they put me on hold for over an hour and when I finally spoke with an account manager the manwould not close his mouth long enough for me to tell him I’m not interested and I want to cancel. He kept telling me that our website was the issue, and not their product! BEWARE THESE PEOPLE ARE MONEY HUNGRY FIENDS.

I am on the Do Not Call list and they called.

I received a sales call while in the car with my husband who happens to be owner of our company. We bought 3 search phrases for the price of 1; people who searched on Google, Bing, MSN, etc. using one of these phrases would see my name and phone number on the top of their search results. Turns out what we bought was 2 search phrases on Google only and 1 search phrase on Bing, MSN, etc. still that would come up on top but Google may or may not display my phone number. Tried to cancel product and get money back the very next day. Convinced to hang in there for the month. A week later, what I really bought was that I’d come up somewhere on the 1^st page of results and on Bing, my name isn’t even showing nor is my phone number — -just the company name. Tried to cancel with my «account manager», and after 45 minutes on the phone, she continued to say I could cancel but they can’t refund my initial payment. Apparently, there are no supervisors to talk to at GNM because this person refused to ever let me talk to one. If I could give negative stars, I would. Like Kelly B (3÷19÷2015), how I wish I had read reviews first. Beware! DO NOT GIVE THIS COMPANY YOUR BUSINESS. They sell you products they say they can deliver and then later tell you that is not the product they sold you.

Interesting pitch for $ 149 a month I have a guaranteed space on specific search terms and Google ads… I can barely get a gym membership for that being familiar with advertising $ 149 a month is definitely not going to get the job done… People if it sounds too good to be true don’t believe it… Snap…

This company is the worst of the fast talking «internet placement» companies that call me on a daily basis. They promise all kinds of exposure with their links to websites, yet I never had a single call or inquiry so I called them back after 21 days to cancel. They kept transferring the call to another salesperson to talk me out of cancelling and promised all kinds of additional links — then they charge my credit account triple the $ 139/​month that I signed up for… Stay away from this company!

I wish I would have read the reviews here before I sign up… $ 139 wasted… But to be fair to the company, I had to say that I only tried for a month, sale rep said most agents see results in 2-​months. Since I didn’t get even one call or email, I’ve decided not to continue with the subscription.
One star for the outcome in my experience but 5 starts to the people that work there tho, very nice, very well spoken, tech people was fast with the changes that I want with my website.

Spoke with a gentleman by the name of James, he was terrific! not pushy, he was understanding, and very professional.
I’ve been using the service for a few months now and have already closed a few deals, as well as listed some properties. So far, the service is doing exactly what it’s supposed to and after setting up my ad’s (or positions), my own marketing team gave me a call to show me my positions live as well as set up my website. Since then, my web presence has given me a great look on the web, as well as build my confidence. I am very satisfied with the service and happy I answered the phone.
Well done, guys! I’ll be calling in soon for another position,
Cheers!

Just spent about 15 – 20 min. with them on the phone. One thing, is they have very well trained salespeople. I think that I did throw them a couple curve balls with the types of questions that I was asking them… and I’m almost positive that I could hear someone in the background answering the questions that I was asking, only to hear that immediately repeated by the person I was talking to.
As I was talking to them, I was ⁵⁰⁄₅₀ on whether I might give this a shot, and then I asked them about their company. I googled it, and found ALL these wonderful comments about the company. Well, the comments weren’t wonderful, but the fact that I was able to read them before making a decision was wonderful. When I asked her if she had checked the Unilocal reviews of the company she worked for, she said she hadn’t. When I asked her if she was aware that every review for the company that she worked for was negative, she said she couldn’t believe it. I simply suggested on her next break to maybe check it out.
I read through these other reviews, and they are all pretty «spot-​on». They have a response for every question you might ask. And when you ask some pretty specific questions, their very quick and timely response has nothing to do with the question you asked.
I’m not necessarily hating on the person that called me. I understand that this is America, and we all have to make a living, even those who do sales via cold-​calling. I think b/​c I did that for about 6 months while I was in college interning for Merrill Lynch is why I’m wasn’t completely rude.
Thanks to everyone before who wrote reviews, you all saved me $ 130. My suggestion, spend the $ 130 boosting a real estate ad on Facebook, you’re more than likely to generate more leads from that, than wasting a single penny with this company. If the company was REALLY that good, they wouldn’t have to be cold-​calling for clients. We would be fighting to get to them.

Wow. Wish I had read the reviews before I gave them my debit card number. Good scripts, good salespeople, bogus product.
I called an hour after the initial sales call to try and cancel. I stayed on hold for over 20 min and then «chuck» all but begged me to stay at least a month to see if the service worked for me. I am unwilling to do so and asked for an immediate cancellation. I was told that my $ 139 was already allocated and ads were live. Yeah right.
I was asked to wait until tomorrow to see the changes that chuck wanted to make would satisfy me. I said please cancel anyway. I was put on hold. Again. I was told that I can have my cancellation and the ads would run for a month. I asked for a refund and was told my ads would be down by the end of the day. I contacted my banker to dispute the charge.
I wish I had the last two hours of my life back. The original call came from 702−978−4427.

Pros: Nice sales people who use well worded scripts.
Cons: 1. Global Net Media is a shell company, it is a dba (doing business as) company for LinkTech. Do a quick search on Google to see the quality provided by the parent company.
2. At Global Net Media they are not fully honest and avoid specific questions using smoke and mirror responses. They completely fail to inform you the ads they provide are primarily desktop ads with limited mobil ad capability, which is where most ad traffic is derived.
3. They are quick to sign you up & speed you through your initial questions. I called three hours after my initial sign up with questions about the service and had to wait 25 minutes before reaching an actual person. Once on the phone, they dodged all my questions (asking about desktop ads vs mobile), and kept trying to refer me to an orientation call where they are excited to explain all their services to me.
I got a bad gut feeling after a few minutes of speaking to the support person, so I requested to cancel my service and receive my refund. A full 55 minutes later I was able to hang up the phone with my cancellation and refund.
Every time I asked the support lady to stop reading her scripts and cancel my account, she immediately sprang into a new script. Then to try keep me happy she would ask me questions about how successful my business is doing and then offer me coverage in two more cities for my first month.
If I asked a question I would be put on hold for 3 – 5 minutes while she spoke to a manager. I read somewhere else this is a strategic delay used to frustrate people enough to hang up and start the process over.
I finally had to threaten to place a stop payment on my credit card, report them to the credit bureau, and contact the California Department of Business and Regulation as the whole company sounded like a scam. 2 minutes later I had my refund.
Long story short, this company is a joke. Do a google search on them and you will see plenty of negative review and similar complaints. Save yourself the hassle of dealing with them and hang up when they call.

I just spent 45 minutes talking with one of their salesmen, Jason. He was relentless and had a comeback for every hesitation I had. Throughout the call I reiterated that I could not afford their services at the moment. Perhaps he thought I was on the fence and just needed swaying? I kept telling him I’m broke… even laid out my financial and employment issues to no avail. In my case, «no» really does mean «no». He wouldn’t give up. I felt bad doing it, but I finally had to hang up and block him from calling again.
After reading the other reviews, I’m glad I wasn’t suckered into giving them my last $$ for magic beans.

I total agree with Von’s review, a complete waste of time, money and effort. I too received zero contacts for the one month I subscribed to their service, being told that my name and contact information would appear on three different cities when home buyers were looking for a property to buy. I entered the search criteria into Google on several occasions for these three cities, and only once did I see my name appear on only one of the cities. I called to cancel today and after being on hold for 15 minutes the sales girl would not cancel my account and proceeded to try to sell me more time, saying that one month is not long enough to see results. I repeated at least 6 times that I did not want this and to cancel my account, and she proceeded to offer me an additional 2 weeks for free. I must say in their defense, they have excellent sales people working for them, from the initial salesman that sold me the product, to this sales lady today who would not take no for an answer. Do not give them your money.

What a total waste of time, effort, money, and as a bonus getting a headache in dealing with a scamming company. They produced zero contacts for me in two and a half months. What they do is so totally ineffective. Then dealing with them and their «Satisfaction Guarantee» really means no satisfaction for you, only them as in they keep your money and move on to the next person they can scam. Run for the hills. They lie when the account representative says that they are there to help you… they are there to help Global Net Media or the parent Linktech. If I could give them negative stars on the rating I would. They are a total scam… avoid them like the plague.
