“Very professional and easy to access”

Debra I.
12/24/19

I have been given a beautiful website and have received online and live training with experts. The techs do some of the work and teach me to do the rest. I need to know how to add/subtract items I sell, post blogs, advertise, etc. All are included in my training.

“Kreative was a waste of time and money”

Len F.
2/17/17

The sales department either doesn't know or doesn't care about the actual capabilities of their software and and configuration. I wasted a year with them waiting for their "engineers" to handle Canadian currency. Something I was assured was "no problem, we have lots of Canadian e-comm sites". Beyond basic help, as other reviewers have mentioned, you're on your own. If you're going to work with an archaic system launching html editing for every h1 header you might as well build your own and save the money and time.

I am devastated with my experience with Kreative. I spent many months working diligently on creating my site because I believed in what they promised me: a good online business. Wrong! After paying $6,000 for their program and an additional $6,000 to them for FB advertising (which I am still paying off), I have not had even one sale since the site went live in 2016! Nothing!

I have been contacted through a 67.00 ad and tricked by my own desires to lose 8600 I asked for my money back and was switched to a different guy with Kreative who then started talking about more and more money. I am disgusted I have a website that is so lame that nothing will sell and it is not complete. I am supposed to learn how to finish it. The products on it are too expensive and horrible selection. No way will I spend any more money. Why don't we look into a class action lawsuit. Contact me if interested

If I could I would rate them a ZERO! The only thing Kreative is about is getting as much money as they can from people! They act like they're going to get your website in the number one spot on google. I paid Kreative to get a website up and running. But I can't do anything with the website. Stay away from this company with a ten foot pole! They're total bums! I'm trying to get my money back from this fake company and also trying to work with the bank, but unfortunately it's very difficult.

1 phone call. Sounded good... had to check with the manager. ( a used car trick)... should have known better. I invested 5k. Second call they went into the hard sell up grade. I was looking at this review and decided these guys were pushing way too hard. So i called the credit card company. STOP payment. Don't play with these guys. They just want your money. Talk a good game. But the game is take your money... run away NOW

They have no problem taking someone's money and not giving it back. I was looking to make a little extra to pay off hospital bills, and they just put me deeper in debt. Piss poor service, and it takes forever for them to get anything done. Your money will be better spent elswhere!

This company does and says anything to get your money. Will not follow through on any of it. They seem to just be barely legal enough that you won't be able to get your money back. Definitely think about going with a different company.

This is a complete waste of time and money, They leave out all the important things you need to know. Marketing, state tax laws, and especially how you need to continue to give them more money each step. Even then you never seem to get anywhere. They will show you websites and how profitable they are. All part of a scam. Keep your money!

I am currently disputing charges to my credit card. I've cancelled my account but am being told that it doesn't matter because the 3 days have passed and I am going to have to pay for the 24 months of website help! Thats over 2500 dollars! Let alone the 3750. 00 they took right away from my credit card. The first thing they want to do is get access to your credit score, then they tell you which credit card to use to pay. The one with the biggest credit limit, of course. Who can see if they are going to like something in 3 days? They included the weekend when counting the 3 days, which wasn't right. They keep trying to talk me into staying but its not for me. All they want is your money and they use that agreement to stick it to you! Money hungry jerks!

Last July I wanted to start my own website so I signed up with Kreative for help. I did a ton of computer work, but help was not easy to come by. Nine months later and after spending $12,000 of my money, I never got a viable website, and NEVER MADE ONE DIME! They prey on honest people who are trying their best to make some extra cash. They have no problem in taking your money and leaving you with absolutely nothing! They are just making money on you're dreams! Don't waste your time and especially your money!

Ripped me off $ 8000. 00. Someone needs to put these people out of business. They are a bunch of swindlers. I have absolutely no access to my so called business. I spent $8000 for it and I have nothing to sow for it.

I wish that I would have read these reviews before getting roped into their scam. I am frustrated beyond belief with the debt that I have accrued with these criminals. They make terrific claims that just do not materialize. I would sue them, also.

We all need to work together to try bring them down so they will not rip off any more people. They got me out of $10,000 and I refuse to give them any more. All they want is your money and will not give you the help to need. It's like they want you to quit because now they have your money and you can't get it back because you already passed the 3-days mark. We need to find out who is the CEO and own for this rip off business.

When I started my Ecommerce business I was promised 24/7 Technical Support, Customer service, Mentorship, Website analysis, Premium SEO service and likelyhood of a seven figure annual income. Not One of these promises were delivered. Training was delivered by Filipino instructors who could barely speak English. Technical Support and Website Analysis was non-existent and when I did get through, all they could provide were excuses why they couldn't do their job. Absolutely the worst investment I have ever made in my life..

Their favorite line is "I'm here to help you!" The only help needed is for them to actually do the work that they were hired to do. Yes, they are a scam. Take your $$$ and never actually do the job. They say they can do X, Y, & Z but when it comes do to it they are a low class company that can't get the work done. Wouldn't recommend them at all. They lie to get your money and then you have to make an appointment if you need something or have a question. Appointment take 24 -72 hours. Imagine having a question about a product that you purchased and have to wait 3 days for an answer. I have left messages and never got a return call to make an appointment. Now it's 5 days. This company will not be in business very long once people can figure out to stay away. Please tell as many people as you can.

Beware of Kreative, Business Venture or John Giles. I paid $42,282.14 into this business and worked my site (EverydayHammocks) every day and as of 5/31/21 made 0 return! Kreative makes you sign another contract whereby you must pay $99.99 per month for 24 months. I informed them on 10/14/2020 that I couldn't afford this monthly payment as a widow but they kept charging my bank account so I've paid an additional $1,199.88 and have submitted an email to cancel my entire account with them. They put me in debt and I finally refinanced my mortgage for a lower interest rate and cleared and cancelled three credit cards. Instead, I joined Airbnb & Vrbo and have been renting out my 1st-floor unit to vacation tourist and have made more money than my entire bill to this company. This company has such a poor rating which I should have checked before joining them. BEWARE of these con artists! I would be happy to provide a copy of the costs paid, but this site won't accept the attachment.

Tip for consumers:
Stay away from Kreative, Business Venture, and John Giles!

After dealing with Kreative for four months or so, I had the gut feeling that things weren't right, and all the negative reviews and the lack of BBB accreditation have confirmed that. Long story short, I'm now out over $14,000 in credit card debt to them and recently was accepted by National Debt Relief to handle that debt with 3 different credit cards. Also I had requested for them to take down a website, which they were charging $139.99 for and they not charge for it, but it was reflected on the most credit card statement. Now they want me to talk to a client retention specialist. Sounds like a desperation thing to me, as they supposedly say they can resolve most certainly issues. The resolution for me is I'm done with them. Just like sheep in wolf's clothing. Perhaps a class action suit by former scammed clients will bring that company down.

These young men has very nice clothing and potential but... I ordered from them may 31 and didn't get my items till august. I had to file a claim with PayPal to get my items. I left KC plenty of emails they never responded I tried to leave comments on their instagram. Guess what? My comments go deleted. They are scammers in my opinion so when I filed a claim with PayPal they finally sent my items. BARELY they sent one out of my 2 items so AGAIN I had to deal with this issue with PayPal and I got my partial refund. All in all I wouldn't order from them ever again.

This business is total scam. They charge you for things you do not get and tell you how important it is to be on the first page of googles search engine but they don't tell you the only way you will find your company is by the actual web site address. I. E. If you sell hammers, you cannot enter the word HAMMER into the search engine and find your web site. You have to enter your website address "hammers big and small" to get to your web site. If you are starting a new business, who's going to know your web site address? And for this aggravation they charge you $16,250.00 that they call "Marketing" which I have yet to see. They also charge you for a software app. For $3,000.00 which I have also yet to see. In total they will charge you about $20,000.00 for work that is poorly done, incomplete, or non-existentant. You are better off using Go Daddy then using Kreative.com unless you like giving money away because that is all you will be doing when you use them.

A fast speaking agent called and talk me to do a business with this company. Of course if I can I would rate them no star, but the system does not allow that. I waisted entire year and almost 20k in an effort to get the the WEB business going. After the WEB was up more than 3 months, there was no single sail. After I complained to the company I was told that my nitch is not helpful; well it was forced to accept it by my first consultant. "He has been doing this 15 years and I do not nothing".
In conclusion this is total scam company oriented only toward stealing as much money from yo as possible. They use any tool to do so. My mistake was that I did not do full investigation before giving them any money. Seatle BB has so many complaints the they issue a red flag to this company. My recommendation is stay away

Tip for consumers:
I have only one tip STAY AWY FROM THOSE SCAMMERS

Products used:
The Kreative LLC promised a wonderfool WEB that would sell products like a hot cake. They assisted with creation of the WEB but I sent way too much time creating their own errors and mistakes. Finally when the WEB was set live, there was no single sale. In conclusion I wasted almost $20.000 and countless time. The only purpose of this company is to get as much moneytfrom you as possible. They have zero interest to make your business working.

I was searching online ways to make money since I was out of a job, came across an ad that could help do that, paid 37 bucks to start program and was informed I would gets details as to what it was all about. I spoke with the first guy Brandon who basically sold me on spending 4500 for my business with training included being a few times a week up to 30 mins on the calls and would have my site up in about 45 to 60 days and soon will be making money, never once did he mention that It would be essential to have tax help or better yet Marketing! Which ended up costing additional thousands that I did not have to begin with. He also told me if I need help with my Cc payments to let him know, I did a few times and still nothing! Now I'm out of 9500 and they need more money to do additional work that I dont have time to do since I'm back to work & school but I am beyond tap out money wise and not even sure this is gonna work. Wish I never did this to begin with because it put me deeper in the whole financially and my site has been live almost a month and nothing. I'm pissed they only give you three days to want to cancel and hopefully get your money back. Now coming here and seeing everyone else reviews just seals the deal about what I've been feeling about the whole ordeal. Beware people who are considering work from home ads online, if you have the money to give away then go for it, maybe things will work out and you'll actually make money.
