Welcome Wagon Complaints - Misrepresented advertising!

Review all Welcome Wagon complaints

Welcome Wagon

Misrepresented advertising!
Complaint Rating:  75 % with 4 votes
Welcome Wagon representative sold our business an advertising package which mailed our offer to all new households within a specific area for the entire year. After three mailings we saw no interest from the Welcome Wagon offer and left several messages for the person who sold the package. She never returned our calls so we contacted the main office only to get transferred to different voice mailboxs and never a returned phone call. Welcome wagon just kept mailing and billing our credit card...

Thank goodness our credit card company stepped in to help us cancel the mailings.

This is a company to avoid at all costs.

avoid at all costs is 100% right!! welcome wagon is now owned by a real estate based company having several various names. move.com is one. formerly it was homestore.com.
if you google homestore.com fraud, homestore.com crooks, homestore.com deceit, homestore.com swindlers, you'll quickly find that these guys are professional crooks & thieves. they have taken the refutable name of welcome wagon & used it to trick small businesses into their advertising schemes. they over charge big time & the results they claim you'll receive never come close to materializing. each lead you may receive will end up costing you $400 - $1500 per body. their fees are extremely excessive. once they have your credit card info, you're screwed. they charge you $75 in order to receive a monthly invoice payable by check.

they've morphed into a new identity. the new name is move.com.
google move.com fraud. they come up again as crooks. this time they contracted with a company named active rain to purchase the business. move.com learned all active rains techniques, procedures, business procedures, customer lists, etc. & then backed out of the deal after making use of all they had stolen. they are being sued for 33 million. another name they own is realtor.com . no point into going into that, the name says it all.

these guys have been in business via using various names since 1993. in their own words, they never had a profitable year except marginally so in 2005. (of course the hotshots receive hugh bonuses regularly) how does a business remain viable without a profit in 14 of 15 years???? obviously, these guys are super crooks & masters of lies & deception! be very, very careful
of any of the business names found on the website of move.com !!

Avoid Welcome Wagon at all costs! They are scammers - just google them to learn more. AND NOW THEY ARE FOR SALE AGAIN! You see, Move, Inc. who currently owns them is selling WW because they are NOT profitable. Welcome Wagon claims to mail out pieces of direct mail featuring all types of local businesses - which by the way most aren't even mailed out!! That's scam #1. #2 is WW illegally refuses to pay its employees 100% of all (legally due) expenses and they also take out a percentage of a sales person's commission as what they call a "collection protection" and then if you quit the company, WW claims they do not owe you that money! HIGHLY ILLEGAL. Bottom line is this - direct mail marketing can work but it will not work if it's Welcome Wagon you're dealing with. They simply DO NOT mail out what they claim to mail out to all new homeowners! AND how can new homeowners be a great target market in these times anyway? They are liars in their sales pitches and beware! I speak the truth about them. They told us to LIE, LIE, LIE everyday!
