How can anyone like Google more than Yahoo? Their homepage is a search bar, that's it. No news or any updates on their homepage. Their Gmail is bad and the quality is lower. They own YouTube now and they messed that site up as well. I would NOT recommend Google to anyone. That's about it.
Tip for consumers:
Don't use Gmail. Use Yahoo email instead.

This company was supposed to clean my computer and install pc watchdog. They never installed the pc watch dog and my computer is still slow. They charged me $369.99. Also they tried to run my card 9 times at $369.99. Now I have to fight charges.

Google now become a part of my life. Anything I would like to know, I can find it with Google. Very easy, very fast, but sometimes I think google make us become lazy. But there is also many positive things, many of information we can get.

Every time my PT went out of town, I was put on hold for treatments.
When billing time came, and there was a dispute, I was forced to attempt to prove I paid.
I found them to be less than satisfactory both in service and billing.

Paid for 6 month trial at which point i called to say i did not want the monthly product--though they promised i could cancel even when i called they said they would cancel, they continue to charge my credit card. Scary... not worth it. Beware all

I refuse to open this site anymore because the 3rd party ads are just too horrible, upsetting and disgusting. Projectfree.tv, can you do anything about this so I can come back? As it is, I just can't.

I received the wrong dress shirt from ViralStyle (viralstyle.com). I have tried to contact Christina Bradley (Viralstyle Support) on a number of occasions with no positive results. I simply wanted the correct shirt I originally ordered but have received any positive results. They have my $36.00 and have a ridiculous shirt I did not order. Appalling service!
Tip for consumers:
DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH ViralStyle (viralstyle.com) !!
Products used:
Wrong dress shirt.

This website is a total scam with very smooth operators. They pretend to teach you, then sell you outrageously priced software solutions which put malware on your computer. Fortunately, I figured out that I had been scammed and contacted my credit card company right away and was able to get all 90% of my money back with multiple calls to the company and a fraud report opened by the credit card company.

I have a 6 ft privacy fence about 800 ft long and a lawn company was hired to cut my lawn front and back. In going to the back through a 5 1/2 ft wide gate the lawn cutter drove his 43 inch zero turn into my gate without opening it to get in and knocked it off hinges and broke it. I searched fence companies locally and came upon Carolina Fence Creations, owned by Brandon *******819 *******@gmail.com... Fast, outstanding repair service by the owner himself and his right hand man. Even replaced the handle opening the fence and no cost as original installer from a major home improvement company provided a inappropriate steel opener. If you are ever in need of a fence installer or repair call Brandon the owner, you are guaranteed to get the best personalized service ever. Thank you Brandon for a outstanding repair job, fair price and education for myself and all my real estate client.

What can I say? More of a personal favorite than anything (with no slight to yahoo, bing or others) but whatever browser I use it is my default homepage+search engine. Google+ is becoming more relevant to the default Google search engine so we'll see if search results will suffer from some sort of favoritism.

A tremendously useful tool. I had been employed for the last 22 years for a company. Recently moved and had to put together a resume... OUCH! Thank God for My Perfect Resume. It is the most useful, helpful, and user friendly program I have used. My resume has been great, as I have have many job offers, and currently got the job I really wanted.

Got a pop up screen that told me something was wrong with my computer. Clicked on the ad and was taken to SafeCart. Paid money to have computer fixed. 3 months later Safecart calls and says my computer needs attention and in order to fix it I needed to pay more money. When asked why the money paid last time didn't help and catch the problem I was told "... that wasn't covered..." Three months later I get another call telling my that "my computer has been hacked this time... I need to take action"... Yet again when asked why the money paid twice before didn't help me was told "it doesn't cover this type of thing " What do you three 2.5 months later another call. These people were able to pull up account information from the computer and actually see usernames and passwords for various accounts.
No happy and would suggest to stay away. Seems like a scam.

I have given this company 1 star but really it should not have any stars at all. Their set up an alert is mixed up with log in to your google account which if you have more than one Email address mixes up the Email addresses for your responses and causes you to have to go through a repeat process which even links to your internet provider. What a waste of people's time! Then there are the continual pestering messages about security processes. There is no exuse for vanity!. The whole world is not interested in little you in your little room trying to search the internet. If google could get that into their thick heads we could all be able to search the internet and use their services in peace. Unfortunately, they are determined to make your life a missery with their demands and logging in processes. For God's sake google grow up!

I have really valued Google for years to find things and even for shopping. Recently it has come to my attention that Google is a good source of honest reviews for businesses as long as those reviews are positive or neutral. If you need a review site that is not afraid to also provide the less-favorable reviews that warn you of bad business practices then you need to instead go to Facebook for complete and factual reviews.
My factual review of a local pediatrician (Dr. Kevin Grant of Folsom--owner of "Folsom Lake Pediatrics") was deleted from both Yelp and Google apparently due to the business owner not liking it since it brought awareness of some serious integrity issues.
I greatly thank Google for all the help they have done for me via their search engine, maps, reviews, etc. Google is great!

This service is USELESS! It's a total ripoff. It did absolutely nothing it claimed it would do to remove malware/virus from my computer. It just sits in your computer silently for 6 months doing nothing, then you get charged $20 from the company with "automatic renewal" of their "service".
Complete sham. Do yourself a favor. Do NOT sign up for this scam.

I placed an order for shirts knowing the sizes based on a previous order. The shirt sizes and quality had completely changed with the new order. When I asked customer service for new shirts I was told the sizes and quality were the same even though I pointed out that it was a differing manufacturer. I was told to send them back before being allowed to place a new order. They would never have arrived in time for my event. Needless to say my group was unhappy with the order.

I live for the google. Google helped me graduate from graduate school! One million stars for google. I love doing research and reading celebrity gossip on google. I just wish google would not allow fraudulent sites to conduct business from their site.

Is anyone else tired of the vanilla results google is providing... I am.
I used to find interesting stuff all the time, no I have to change and redefine my search all the time until I finally just give up. Is there a good search engine out there?

They ruined everything when they removed the top shortcut bar. Now everybody has to click 10 buttons to get to google maps or to google videos. Why won't they stop from changing things when they are already good enough?

I was going to order a toy for my grandson. I went to this website to order the toy for Xmas. I gave them all my info but was trying to find out how long it would take to ship before giving final authorization. Finally I got to the page that said it would take 5 weeks so I tried to quit the transaction. I backed out of the website but they charged my CC anyways. Then when I tried to call their customer service, I was on hold for 3 hours - literally. Clearly they don't sell the product. They just phish CC info from unsuspecting customers. They need to be shut down!

I have very little trust in Google. They are okay at helping me to locate data but that data usually has to line up with their ideology. Additionally I keep getting a notification that I need to update my Google profile with my date of birth to comply with the law. There is no law, repeat no law, that I am aware of that requires me to provide Google with my birth date and I'm getting tired of them lying to me to try to get this information.
Tip for consumers:
Free email, cloud storage, and browser

I ordered one download of Spyware Doctor, Apparently it was billed through safecart.com. I was billed twice. I called them' and called them. They have a machine that answers and says all of their support people are busy. How do I get through to them! Please folks stay away from this site. Trouble is you don't you you are dealing with this site until it is too late.

Google has always been there to help me find what I need on the web. Although it seems to me that the web should be based on what real people are looking for not what a websites seo specilist is able to do to make it rank. It seems like this is the best option as of today for finding relevant content.

I love Google but I am giving it a 3 out of 5 because of its voice service you find on all the phones now days. I broke 2 Samsung On5 phones that I owned because I thought it was the phones that was making my voice to text all screwed up saying random... I never said. It really... me off! I would be talking to someone in voice to text & it would say some really... & off the wall... that I never said some of which started some unwanted drama with people who did not know me well. After I got other models of phones I have now found its Google Voice to Text not my phone/s. Such a waste, those were good phones & I just got... & decided I had had enough.
Google fix that crap!
