I not trust this company

Do not trust this company. Total and utter scammers. Gloves off now. I've been patient with this company. But now the gloves are coming off. I have face book photos of all the posts of people they have ripped of. Web site they built was a joke. Basic site that a child could have done. Constantly threating me with court action. Debt collectors don't seem to understand the law. I've asked the debt company not email, call or message me. My call was recorded. Any more communication will result in a police complaint. Will be reporting to trading standards. Reported to police for harassment. I seriously look forward in Thier reply. They have refused to send myself all telephone conversations with them.

Well done Melissa 5 Stars

HI, just giving a review for my very supportive customer service provider Melissa, she is very polite, listens to my question and concerns, also has very good knowledge. I have no issues with giving 5 star report. I wish all telephone ops had her mannerism. Keep up the good work.

Jason customer service

Jason from unitel customer service, usually calls every month for check up. Which is great, it's always good to get updates on progress. But as for the overall unitel bringing in business, I am not so sure about that. I have personally have not seen difference between last two years of sales to this year since I have joined unitel.

BE WARE!!! MONEY GRABBERS

BE WARE!!!! When you 1st sign up they are all nice and offer you all the help you need, I got no results from the site and when I asked to cancel, the manager said NO! I was not allowed to cancel and that I agreed to a rolling contract, which I had not, he then went on to threaten my personal finances if I refused to pay for the next year. When I started this contract I was told I could try it out for a year and if I wanted to renew I could do that when the time came nothing about being obligated to stay with them for life!! MONEY GRABBERS!!

A slow to sort website but seems to be working

Michelle, has been fab, cannot fault her commitment. Calls and checks on a regular basis. If you are not happy she will sort it. Back ground staff are a little absent. SEO could do with contacting the customer and giving results and performance of the website on a regular basis. As we are paying for the service. But we seem to be receiving webiste hits and enquiries. So all good at the moment.
