Tried to cancel our subscription with…
Tried to cancel our subscription with them because they didn't contribute anything at all to our business, but they refused. We stopped payment to them, they then said they would cancel our account. Next thing we get debt collectors after us and at least 17 texts a week from yell demanding money. We listened with debt collectors and received a credit note from yell, then we get another bill which we didn't agree with as the account was closed, then we get another £40 added on for later payment. DO NOT do business with this company. They are just out for what they can get and give nothing in return.

Karl was super helpful
Karl was super helpful! I've had many, MANY phone calls and emails from other companies, promising the world. But when Karl got in touch (after I searched out and found a company I may be happy with), I felt like Yell.com has to be the platform I go with for all my SEO and advertising. Karl made me feel confident in what I was doing. He gave me loads of options and helped me to decide which one will work best for my business. Here's to future success. Thanks Karl.

Been with Yell for 6 months now
Been with Yell for 6 months now. Really happy with outcome. Has helped my business grow. They stripped back my website and started again, making it much more professional and freed me up to concentrate on growing and maintaining services.
Special mention to Paul Weary, my account manager, he's approach has been helpful, trying understand the business and needs rather than generic marketing. Looking forward to many more years with Yell!

This company is absolutely awful
This company is absolutely awful. I have been missold a package with promises of leads and I have not had a single lead for 3 months. After paying £168 a month on a 12 month contract and having 0 leads is horrendous. I have received absolutely no support or no one has reached out to help. My supposed account manager Claire has ignored all messages sent to her. This is the worst marketing agency ever. Do not use them, do not sign up to a contract, you will lose out massively. Just read all their other reviews online and you will see.

Hello Richard,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, and I’m genuinely sorry to hear about your experience.
I’m sorry that you’ve found yourself in financial difficulty so soon after signing up, and that you felt your situation wasn’t taken into account when you contacted customer service. That’s clearly not the experience we want anyone to have, especially when dealing with something as important as your business.
If you’re open to it, I’d encourage you to get back in touch via this link https://yell.com/contactus/ with your Yell account number so we can review your situation properly and see if there is anything further we can do to support you.
Thank you again for your feedback.
Kind regards Mark
