“Their service is invaluable”

Greg R.
3/16/20

I would advise everyone to read reviews on ComplaintsBoard before deciding anything. It's trustworthy. With honest opinions. What's interesting is that people share their negative experience only to show companies' worst sides. That's why I consider them to be reliable. I really thank them so much for existing.

“This site has allowed a deranged lunatic to post false...”

This site has allowed a deranged lunatic to post false things about me and my family for years. $30,000 is what we were quoted to have the lies removed. Anyone can post any lie they want with no proof. Its nothing but an extortion scam.

This website is simply the best. It helped me two times already and saved me from a lot of stress and headache. My advice to you - before you buy something from an unknown company or website, do your homework - go to complaintsboard.com. I promise, you will thank me in the future.

They never take anything down unless you pay them, its blackmail, they are purely in it for the money. They are only interested in bad reviews, if you post some good information about a company it simply wont get on the website as they cant make any money from that.

I received my first negative review on SiteJabber today for my business from a person whose name I did not recognise as purchasing from me within the past few months. I have also never had anyone contact me regading a problem with an order which is strange.

Weirdly, 10 minutes after responding to the review I got an email into my junk from complaintsboard.com which I have never heard of before. Upon researching it, a lot of people link it to fake reviews and then this company charge you to have them removed. I'm presuming this is what the strange review is that has appeared against my business today - too coincidental not to be.

I can't believe people would try and scam others like this - and leaving fake negative reviews against people's companies. Absolutely shocked!

I am really happy with their service. I've posted my complaint against a local store and got my money back. I was unable to get it back before the posting as the owner refused to even listen to me. I've got my refund within 2 days - and considering that the services are free, this makes complaintsboard.com a really valuable website!

Complaints Board is a complete online scam. It is a forum for sociopaths, internet trolls and bullies to have a free space to degrade any business or person they choose.
Not only does the site attempt to extract money once the review is published, so does the poster. Usually the poster hits all of the other sites too then demands money.
Complaints Board allows people to assault people's sexuality, character, looks, anything these bullies can think of. Then the company sends it out to other associated sites so that the person or business has this trash show up at the top in every search engine.
This is total blackmail and character assassination. I cannot believe a class action suit has not yet been filed.

You can put up your complaint but you may have them respond back in language bordering abuse. This is if whoever doesn't agree with or approve of your situation. You can't remove your own complaint so before you decide to use them just beware.

Scam website, writes fake bad reviews about companies and tries to get said company to "pay to get it removed". If you browse the site you'll see many mid-small companies with one review with the same generic bad review as the first review. Also has been noted by others that the site itself is unsafe to use, pop ups and such. Avoid

Most of the reviews on complaintsboard.com are indeed legit. However, a lot of scammers increasingly use the site to extract money from businesess. They post fake and defamatory reviews about your company and once the bad review appears in google they contact you to offer their services (often pretending to be a SEO company) to remove the fake review.

Unfortunately, due to US regulations, you can't have the fake review removed by the site owner and they don't seem to care about it anyway. This is an illegal practice affecting many businesses including mine recently.

The site is full of plagiarized "complaints" from other sites for starters. Whomever "runs" the site which is not in the USA uses third party contacts within the US to "offer" removal of complaints from their site for a fee, normally over $1000 for such a "service". Looking through the site shows how they target smaller companies and how many of those complaints posted are other sites and sometimes you will even find complaint copy and pasted to another company. There are truthful and helpful review sites on the internet but this is not one of them. It is nothing more then an extortion site. Look for yourself doing a search. I'm sure they have trolls on here telling how wonderful the site is, but the truth is out there, easily seen.

Some frauds or our competitors lie that they use our service and we never ship them any items. We contact complaintsboard.com to remove the lie review because there is no proof or tracking as fraud mention, but complaintsboard.com will not remove that fraud lie review, They never offer help for innocent people. We should never trust this website at all. They should be shut down

Shame on them. Complaintsboard is a rip off operation.The ComplaintsBoard.com should definitely be shut down. This is a scam website. They target small and medium size businesses and post a negative review of them, then they ask the businesses for money to remove the negative review. Stay away from these guys

Awful! Many false postings by people with many user names. Known to be a fraud. The lack of any kind of moderation is so bad that you'll find postings irrelevant to a complaint telling people to go kill themselves calling them names and stalking from some of the members. Stay away!

My wife got a new job as a real estate broker a few years back and after Googling her name lo and behold a post on complaintsboard.com came up with a post of utter slander... calling her and her new employer a fraud and stating that she's engaged in illegal activities, etc in very general terms with nothing to back it up. All of which is of course untrue. Further proof that this is a scam? Both of the negative "comments" were posted by a user account based on two different combinations of her own name? Why? So this bogus post will rank higher in search engine results. Of course there is no way to get it removed... the scam continues with the other bogus site that offers to magically remove it for a fee. Google why do you allow this? I know it's not your business to police internet content but this is criminal slander and you should block this site from your search engine results.

This site does not monitor the complaints that are posted, we have had a fake complaint made about our company saying we had taken money and hadn't delivered an order, we had not received order or money and don't even deal in USA, there is no way of deleting the fake complaint, we have complained with no correspondence back to us. Reading other posts from people in the same situation who have mentioned the complaints board and subsidiary associated companies are extorting money from people to remove these fake comments.

I know that there are a lot of websites of the internet like complaintsboard.com, but none of them is half as good. First of all the number of complaints are mind-blowing, secondly it is very easy to use this website, I mean the interface is very user-friendly. I won't brag along about how many times they saved me from getting scammed, I'll just say - one of the best websites on the internet nowadays!

This website is a complete SCAM. Complaintsboards.com DOES NOT REVIEW the comments as stated. They let any person with access to a computer put up false statements. Complaintsboard.com should be reviewed. Some of the comments I read were horrifying with Inappropriate words and name callings. I would not trust this website.

Tip for consumers:
DO NOT TRUST!!!!!

This company has been around for years now, they will NEVER take a review down no matter how ufounded it is (even the original poster cant remove it) unless you pay them a removal fee, downright blackmail. I cant believe they are still doing it.

Do not believe anything you read on complaintsboard, they are a bunch of gangster extortionists from Latvia, their board is totally unmoderated, any of your competitors can destroy your business with multiple bogus bad reviews about your company, then the east european mafia owners will contact you asking for $2000 to remove the "complaint".

Complaintsboard.com is for sure one of the new bred of online scams, Some faceless creature posted about me and a company I did not even work with. When i contacted Complaintsscam they gave me the run around asking for a URL, then requested I contact the online ghost and get him to remove it... Im not even in business, retired for 7 years. Then they emailed an option saying they could help to take down the post BUT there would be "Cost involved" theres the hook... I can believe ICANN's and the attorney general lets this crap go on. 100% scam, zero credibility. Shut it down!

PS; The people here that give this company 5 stars are either part of the complaints board scam team or some petty individual that just wants to rant. If they had a legit issue they would use a legit form of recourse... All scams..

complaintboard.com and deletereviews.com work together to try and get you to pay money to remove bogus reviews from their website. In my opinion, that is actually the legal definition of EXTORTION! They should be put behind bars.

Tip for consumers:
complaintboard.com engages in EXTORTION

Few weeks ago i had a bad experience going to one Asian restaurant(won't mention the name, because i don't want any other problems, but it's about the service) - i entered the name of the restaurant on Google and found out other reports about the place on Www.complaintsboard.com - i contacted the people who wrote the reports and we decided to solve the problem together. www.complaintsboard.com turned out to be a place not only for writing about problems, but also for contacting and uniting people!
