NameWorth scam?

[william]

Has anyone had experience with NameWorth?

I gave it a try because I wanted to see if it would help organize some names, the sign up was easy, the website works. The valuations are okay.

However, the owner or "staff" if there is any, are completely unresponsive. Keep in mind all their plans are billed monthly. However, there is NO option on the website to cancel any plan. No problem, you can just ask them to cancel, right? No. I reached out via their contact - no response. I reached out to @NameBuyer.com here - no response. I reached out via WHOIS - no response. This was in beginning of March! Luckily for me, I used a disposable credit card and I can't be billed again.

I see it being advertised here, so if anyone is considering trying it out - don't.

Update: @NameBuyer.com responded to my e-mail, although after a long while, but it was solved.

Welcome to the club. ))) I used to be a member of NameWorth back in the past, and it was always exactly how you described it.
The owner will get back to you eventually and frankly speaking - he is a very nice guy, his name is Garett. We chatted a few times, he gave me an opinion on a few names of mine. He is definitely a very experienced domainer himself. But yeah, let's put it mildly - customer service on NameWorth and Biix.com is quite on the bottom on the list of his priorities )))
Good luck! ))

Hi

billed monthly.... and domain renewal is yearly?

i'd be more responsive to my rpu's

also, it's not a scam since you already know about appraisal tools, right?


imo...

I put a question mark at the end of scam, because I wasn't sure if it was just my experience and if they are purposively not responding to someone requesting how to cancel their service.

Hi

since i assume the site is still working and you can get the queries that you paid for.
maybe another adjective, like "unresponsive",

peeped around and they don't have a TOS on the site that i can see without becoming a user.

imo...

Contact your bank about the charges.

Most customers cancel their membership via Paypal directly. This inquiry, as well as all other financial related inquires are fully taken care of regularly.

It isn't always taken care of immediately. But they have always been taken care of in a reasonable amount of time and fully.

Well search G for "is nameworth a scam" and you get this thread so I'd imagine somebody will be taking notice.

As mentioned above there is no one that is owed anything and everything is normally taken care of within 48 hours.

Why bring up a thread from June that has already been addressed and updated by OP?

Are you trying to censor debate? I didn't look at the post date. But it was one of the first threads on that board. Try fixing your customer service and threads like these won't appear in the first place. Seems like the o.p. is helping you provide a better product.

No, I said that because the debate was over months ago and was addressed. The only reason there was an issue was because I was sick for a short time period.

OP already said it was addressed. I had no issue responding to OP and their concern was warranted while I was out sick.

Was there something you need help with? I didn't see a request from you on here or via support.

No thanks I don't use appraisal websites because I don't need to know someone else's opinion of the value of my domain names. Since all appraisals are different if you use 10 sites then 9 are not accurate. So it's a false economy. But I admire your efforts in trying to solve this problem and I genuinely hope that you are successful.

Well, I use it regularly and have over $120,000 per year in sales. So if you are doing better than that, great!

I’ve had 2 out of 300+ people that had payment issues. The current system is supposed to work without a PayPal account as well.

If it isn’t let me know and I’ll look into adding a new payment method.

Well, that's the last time I apologise for something mate. You bumped your own negative thread.

I’d rather have truth and actual sales numbers than opinions and conjecture as the final comment.

I use the tool everyday for my own investing and for a newsletter that gets sent out to 3,000+ investors and I see firsthand that it does great at valuation everyday.

If you are also getting $100k+ in sales and have run 1,000s of results through it, I’d love to get your opinion as well.

Your customers are always right. Remember that. One unhappy customer is one too many.

The point being that you’ve never been a customer. You are just trolling based on your responses.

I'm not trolling, I'm simply leaving the thread dude. $140000 is a big success. Well done. Chow!
