My partner and I are into MOBE and we decided to go for mobile marketing. So, we've used buzzcity (like 2 weeks back) and have had sign ups ( 19 out of 1,200 clicks). The problem is that most of the subscriptions are not coming from the countries we've targeted. According to support it's coz of black berry settings we've set up and whatever crap they are talking about. So now we've switched them all off, the clicks are still there but no subscription since we change settings... Now we're thinking is this really for real? My question is, do you think this is worth going forward or should we look else where? Also, we've entered some $500 credit to the account and want it back. They say they don't do refunds. Any opinion/suggestion on this? I'd really appreciate your thoughts on this. Thanks in advance! |

Did they ask for a photo id from you? They won't even "accept" my money (even though it was deposited from paypal for several days already), until I fill out form with photo id. I'm no scammer, but I dont like my personal info out there in Singapore. |

Hi, I have never used this site or heard of them. But.. just to help you out for the future, especially if you are a beginner. Add WOT ( Web Of Trust ) to your browser ( Mozilla FireFox Or Google Chrome ), to see the website ratings. If the website is well established and trustworthy, there will be a green light circle. If a website is not trustworthy there will be orange light. And if the website is known scammer, there will be a red light circle. You have to check the reputation of the site before you buy anything online and this guys look like scammers when I open them in WOT. Here is the link to WOT ratings of BuzzCity. It sound like they were using bots and not a real human.clicks. Hope this helps at list a bit, you will have to fight, hope you get your money back. Geena And Guys don't ever, ever just give out your ID information or any personal info just like that, without thorough, thorough research. |

Unfortunately yes, you have to submit this together with your TOA. I think it's just fine, considering the number of scammer out in the open, it's hard for them to keep up.

Since I'm hearing different stuff going around in WF and elsewhere, and I can't get my money back. I decided to push this further and conduct a live case study ---> My Mobile Marketing Venture (The BuzzCity.Com Case Study) If you have questions about this, feel free to connect. |

I looked at the rating that you linked to and they say that they have 0 information from third party sources and have only 1 user review. Doesn't seem like very much on which to base a rating/opinion. A couple of years ago, I was checking backlinks and I found my site listed on some site that claimed my site to be spam. Odd thing was that the owner of that site actually was a competitor just trying to convince viewers not to look at my site. | |
