wow - I totally signed up for this a while back.

I had always wanted one of these and I had this dude call me up, more than once and he was really persistent. He spent over an hour on the phone and he kept whittling the price down. At one point he even said 'there must be some point that you'd buy it, like if it was 10p' and i said yes, and eventually he whittled £800 down to £150.

the only reason i want it is for the telephone preference stuff so i can demonstrate that i checked. However, no one has that, none of the companies that i have looked up have had it, except ME. Thats what really got me, because he cold called me, and sold me a product that i would use to ensure that i wouldn't break the law, and he had not looked me up, on his system.

It took them ages to get the password to me, they really were hopeless. Then they had a 'glitch' that meant all the companies i looked up got put into the tracker section (which you have to pay for)

Its an ok system but to be honest, i dont need it. accounts are nearly always 2 years out of date and seldom show turnover. It is slightly interesting but there are definatly better systems out there.

i'll definatly be cancelling, very soon, or at least giving my advance notice. i've only had it 2 months but i really cant stand the guy that sold it to me, and that makes it suck. And the fact that they reduced it from £800 to £150 is laughable.

objectivly its an ok service, but its the sort of company that sets common sense alarm bells ringing at every stage. They are just inherently dosgy. The interface is very old hat as well, definatly 800-600 compliant and little else.
