Last year, the site claimed more than 490 million unique monthly visitors across 49 global markets, and its reported annual revenue of $1.62 billion eclipses both Yelp’s and Foursquare’s by a margin of hundreds of millions.

After he hung up with me he wrote a 1 star review on my Google business page saying I was rude to his girlfriend?! This is how you all do businss? This is the lowest move I have ever seen a business do to another business! Really?! Do the owners of Signpost really think this is an acceptable approach for your sales people to write bad reviews on innocent businesses that your sales people call?!

I had to cancel my credit card to prevent them from getting more of my money.Īfter Posting this review, I did receive a call from a very helpful customer service rep from signpost. These stopped when I cancelled the service, but they kept billing me. I know this, because for the first 5 months, I would get 20+ emails from signpost daily. I only noticed at the end of the year, so they charged me for 4 months, without providing service. Signpost continued to bill me, beyond the 6 month trial. I cancelled before the 6 months finished, as they were over spamming my customers and I was getting a bad response from everyone they were targeting.Īfter canceling, I thought it was over. ![]()
