This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

I subscribed for the services from the company Construct A Lead. I used their services within a month, but after I decided to cancel it. I went to their website and cancelled the subscription. But the company continued to charge me for full price. They took $200, and when I called customer services, the agent stated that the subscription was cancelled and money would be returned back. But it was lie, and they continued to charge me. Please, if someone here had the same experience, can you help to return money back?

Most online reviews are not real. We found endless projects at this site . I run the lead service for our company. This website is so easy to use and easy to manipulate the data. We have used construc-a-lead for 6 years. Every year we find more and more construction projects to bid on. Great website for Construction! I have to say I am extremely impressed with Construction. What a great website for finding new projects. Way to go! Terrific! Great leads. We have tried other lead services. Construct-A-Lead provide the easiest to use and best for the money information. Their contact information is exceptional. I was able to save a lot of time and effort finding leads with Construction. The projects were accurate and the site is easy to use. Great site. Never have submitted a review before - great product so far. We have used it for 2 years now. They asked me to write a review. We do not normally do this, but really like this platform for Florida projects. So many projects every month we could call on. This website is so easy to use compared to others we have unfortunately bought. Our estimator loves the services. This is a great tool for finding commercial construction leads. We use this for California and there are always 10 to 25 new leads every day. Super easy to use. tremendous amount of data a construct-a-lead. com. we find commercial construction projects to bid. we recommend construcalead. I was able to save a lot of time and effort finding leads with . The projects were accurate and the site is easy to use. Great site.

If you find yourself on this message board because you have been a victim of Construct-A-Lead fraudulently charging your credit card above and beyond your agreed terms, I encourage you to file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission: https://reportfraud.ftc.gov/#/

The FTC does not resolve your individual report, but it uses reports to investigate and bring cases against fraud, scams, and bad business practices. If enough victims come forward, Construct-A-Lead will be held to account.

You should also file a complaint with the Illinois Attorney General. The AG's office can offer remediation assistance if you have not been made whole. Complaints can be filed here: https://www.illinoisattorneygeneral.gov/File-A-Complaint/

People still replying to a 2014 review. 2104 - 10 years ago. Pretty simple - ask for refund or go to your bank. You probably owe the money if you did not do that. Most subscription services have what is called auto-renew - ask the company to have you removed from auto renew or ask them not to store your card. pretty simple. read your credit card statements!

This comment isn't valid. Our company signed up for an annual membership. 9 months into that annual membership, we began to see monthly charges at a rate higher than the annual agreement. We have disputed our charges after Construct-A-Lead blamed these charges on a "glitch" but failed to return our money.

People continue to comment on this thread because it is one of the first results when you search for the Construct-A-Lead scam, and victims of these criminals are trying to spread the word (rightfully so).

I am repeating Bill Mitch's recommendation to file a report with the FTC and the attorney general. You can file a complaint with the FTC here: https://reportfraud.ftc.gov/#/

The FTC does not resolve your individual report, but it uses reports to investigate and bring cases against fraud, scams, and bad business practices. If enough victims come forward, they will be held to account.

Thsi is a great service. We have found endless leads here. Best service out there. Best data. These jokers bought it.

How in today's technology do you have people complainiing about billinmgs - that's on you. I am guessing these are competitors - Dodge and ConstructConnect. Happens all the tiem. You never believe an online review. Someone is scarred about this service.

Online reviews are ajke.

Ask for refernces.

The company offers a real service, sure. But it also commits fraud by illegitimately charging customer cards without authorization.

I recommend anyone who finds themselves on this page looking for support because you have also been a victim of this scam to file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission. You can file a complaint here: https://reportfraud.ftc.gov/#/

The FTC does not resolve your individual report, but it uses reports to investigate and bring cases against fraud, scams, and bad business practices.

My husband is in a dispute with our credit card company regarding nearly $2000 in fraudulent charges from Construct-A-Lead. Armed with emails from this "company" agreeing that a glitch in their system caused the charges, we will be fighting to the end to stop this. We will be going to our local news organization, news organizations in Illinois (B. uses his personal address as the company address), the state's attorney journal, and the Federal Trade Commission.

I assure anyone who reads this that our complaints are not fake or fraudulent. Indeed, the replies you see from "employees" of this company are their attempts to hide and mislead other consumers. If you are reading this and considering this company's services, please find an alternative. Proceed with extreme caution when doing business online. This experience is so disheartening!

If you have fallen victim to this scam too, I encourage you to file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission as well. While the FTC does not individually investigate complaints, they compile them, and if enough people complain, they will proceed with legal action against the company.

The company is a scam. While we had their service they double charged us for years. When we complained, they never would credit, until we had to do a chargeback. Finally four years ago we cancelled their service which they confirmed, and for four straight years afterward they keep charging our credit card despite the annual chargebacks and written correspondence.

Most internet reviews these days are fake. Competitors fill reviews with false infromation. Comapnies PAY for positive reviews. I know two companies that pay their employees to write positive reviews about their company. You need to be really careful in believing reviews.

Ignore any positive review from this company. Very obvious they are so crooked that they even spend time to make accounts to try to cancel out any negative review. I had to contact my bank today since nobody ever answers. I canceled by account over a year ago and out of nowhere they continue to charge my card twice a month for ridiculous amounts I NEVER agreed to signed up for. Construct a lead is run by a bunch of scam artists. I can't even log in to the website to see any account info. DO NOT SIGN UP WITH THIS COMPANY.

Something isn't right here. Why did you not go yo your bank? Aparently you're not telling the entire story or just a competitor writting a a made up story - this happens all the time on these complaint boards. My company had a made up story written about it on this website.
