by Ted Nuyten • • 0 Comments
Unfortunately we receive regular complaints about Direct Selling Companies with requests to publish the complaints on this website.
“I did not get paid”, “I paid for products which were never delivered”, “My company delayed payments, blaming the payment processor” etc. It would be very time consuming for us to publish all, as it requires in-depth research.
Sometimes it are isolated cases, sometimes it are signs for bankruptcy or, closing down operations such as recently Conligus, Wake Up Now, Bellamora, Jamie At Home, The Freedom Fighters Network, Votre Vu, Lyfestart, Lia Sophia.
As we report “the good, the bad and the ugly news”, a poll is an honest way to inform the industry about a company ‘s reputation and credibility. If a company does not pay out commissions, does not deliver, is terminating without cause distributors, this is the place to be and It is an alert for management to improve their operations. Consider this poll as an early warning system for professionals.
This is NOT a poll you want to end up high as a Direct Selling company. Why a poll? Because we have a great system in place:
You can vote only 1 time per poll. We can keep “trolls” and “haters” and “Bogus
