    Dex is very valuable to our company. We don't do billboards or print advertising in newspapers. We're an unusual business. Being an antique store, our inventory changes a lot. So, really to find us other than driving by our building, the Yellow Pages presence is the only advertising we do. DexYP is the only book that we use and most of the people I know use them. We've been with them forever and just really happy with the service and the quality. I just do not have any problems with the service or the web pages. All works very easily and I appreciate that. We have been doing this for 45 years and as far as getting the most bang for your buck Dex Yellow Pages is the best investment.

    We’ve been with DexYP for the last 10 years and it has been excellent. I like their sales rep, she's very quick to answer emails. Our account manager has been easy to deal with as well. Whenever I send her an email or call her, she gets back to me right away. I always appreciate that. DexYP helped with cleaning up our data online and with Facebook posting. They have been valuable to our company and I would recommend them.

    We've always had a one-liner ad in the yellow pages for years. It had our company name, as well as our phone number. Then, a rep from DexYP contacted us to renew it. We went over it, and since we can get a two and a half inch of ad that will also be on several different search engines that people will have more access to, we agreed to put it together. After all, it's just for a couple of dollars more a month. And while we're not expecting to do any business out of having our name on their phone book, we still have it in case somebody wants to look up and see if our name is in there. Overall, I had a short, simple, and easy experience with DexYP. They've always been nice and I've never had any bad experiences with them.

    DexYP... or Dex Media... or Thryv is all the same thing. They are just trying to hide under different names because reputation is so bad already and they will put up a show to get you in. Promises of new clients! Promises of this amazing booking/payment system! Promises of amazing marketing tools! NO! Lies lies lies and lies. They wont tell you about their 30 days free trial... they wont tell you about their smaller packages. So you get this illusion and expectation only to be shattered because it takes 5 business days to get paid through their "amazing" system.

    Booking system is horrible. You have to type the client's info ALL the time... EVERY appt. It's so annoying and clients get annoyed. So when I signed this contract I sold my soul to the devil because there is no going back, no cancellation, no downgrading, there is no communication, they DO NOT call back... ever! Do not sign with this company. They do not deliver what is promised and you are stuck paying for something you don't even like or use. They will say, "Oh but this is a contract and you signed it..." meaning get ready for 12 months of paying for unhappiness. READ REVIEWS FIRST. This company is out to get you money, they only care about their commission.

    I own a company and I use DexYP for online and paper advertising. Their customer service has always been very good. They call about the same time every year, which is nice. They don't keep calling through the year to try to sell more services.

    We were looking for someone to put our company on Facebook and do local advertising on Google and DexYP happened to call at the right time. The service is really good and their rep, Cherry, has always been helping me and she makes sure I don't get cancelled on payments and I don't fall behind on anything that's coming up so, all my payments are on time. I also make sure with her that nothing gets changed without my consent and make sure everything keeps growing. I like that she keeps calling me all the time to touch base and see how my business is doing. But I'd like to have someone come back and talk about making sure everything is still rolling like it should be with the advertising on Google and what more they could do for me so I could have a bigger area to spread for advertising.

    I operate a small barber shop and was approached several times by John of Dex Media. He explained that for $80 a month his company would claim my business on multiple platforms (Google, Yelp etc.) and maintain all content to be uniform and current. Not being internet savvy I decided to try Dex. After three weeks of nothing happening, I did a Google search of my business and saw nothing had changed. I claimed my business's Google listing myself and several others and learned they cost nothing to claim.

    It was clear that Dex Media is charging for a service that can be performed easily and for no cost. I wrote and emailed Dex's headquarters and emailed the original sales rep. requesting to cancel my subscription and cease billing my credit card. I was informed I had signed a 12 month agreement and could not be let out of it. I do not recall being told the receipt I signed was binding for 12 months. This company is not one to trust or do business with.

    Every year, DexYP calls for renewal and my experience with them is okay. Setting it up wasn't a problem. They asked for us to send the information and we sent it to them. It was only a problem when sometimes we call and it takes a few days to call us back. They answered the questions but they were not getting back to us on time. We put an ad on the Yellow Pages and that's how we are connected with them. Most people now are on the internet and looking for the church service so older generation probably still have Yellow Pages and they look up the information. We have display ads and it's okay. In the past, they wanted to do more but we don't want to go too much on the social media. We're good with what we have. The fact that somebody is looking for the church and they can go online or they can look up on the Yellow Page is good for us. However, they should at least keep communication.

    I have worked with a couple of people from DexYP in getting the ads set up and they have been fine. I just told them what I was thinking and then they sent me a proof and adjusted it from there. They did it the way I asked them to do it. And then if I wanted it changed a little bit, they just do it. What we are doing now is fine. Pricing on advertising is always an issue. So, anytime they could lower their price would be a benefit to any company. Even so, I would tell others that DexYP is a good advertising.

    We had nothing but problems with DexYP. They told us one price but they charged us another, which was much higher than what they quoted us. Also, the ad they put up wasn't correct. We had people coming in here when we were closed, which was during Sundays. It even listed that we were open for 24 hours, which we are not. They also put the wrong number so we had people asking us why we never answered our phone. It screwed things up for us. My boss told me to cancel the service but the people at DexYP told me that it was a mistake so I suggested to give them another chance. My boss did, but the month after that was worse and he still cancelled the service. It was a nightmare, and I was particularly dissatisfied since I got into trouble.

    DexYP did my ad in the yellow pages. The first year we had it with them, they messed it up.

    We've been with DexYP for a couple of years. We used them for a webpage and advertising. I had my rep come in and she talks to me and shows me what we can do. There's another guy who's in customer support. I do not know what he does exactly, but he lets me know how the website is doing and any changes that we can make. They have all been great.

    Their service has been great as well. We get a lot of the phone calls because of the website that they have for us. Also, I like the way that they follow up. So many people will come and give you a presentation or they will tell you about something and they're just gone. Or they'll set something up for you and you just never hear from them again. DexYP always follows through and they're making sure it's still working. They'll call and see if there are any changes that need to be made. Or if they notice something that they think would be better, they're right on that to let us know, to see if that's something that we want to do. I would definitely tell others that DexYP is a great company and they've worked well with us. They should look into having DexYP to help them out.

    We've always had yellow pages and we've had a Yellow Page for a phonebook for as long as I could remember, and I can't remember not having that. We have the basic Yellow Page ad online too and that's included with what we have. We usually get a call from DexYP once a year to update to see if there are any changes in our advertising or the yellow pages ad. It works okay. It's been very valuable and it's the easy way for people to find our church and a simple system for contact numbers. It does search engines either online or printed phone book.

    Three years ago, our business needed to get some better positioning on the web through a better website. We also needed a more attentive company to deal with. DexYP is very easy to deal with and I get a good response when I talk to them. Our salesperson, Susie, was excellent as she explained everything and got us into good positions. We saw an increase in business almost immediately as soon as their work came out. We could see our business coming down then going up every year. They put us into a situation where our business comes up when somebody goes online and types up “boat trailers near me”, which is what we wanted to get.

    We dropped all forms of advertising except for DexYP and their service had been very valuable since our business increased every year. When we started with DexYP, somebody told me that they were not paying anywhere near the amount we were paying and they were getting the same results. But now, DexYP is really expensive compared to other companies which are doing the same thing in the marketplace, so we started looking around.

    DexYP handles all of our digital advertising. During the setup process, we worked with one lady who was in charge of everything digital for us. She came into our community and worked with us and held our hands through the entire thing, which was great. They also do weekly calls with us, as well as a presentation which shows how we're doing, if we're getting calls from certain advertisements. The only bad thing about them is trying to get a hold of them regarding our billing issue, which is them constantly telling us that we were late with our payment. We had multiple accounts with them because of multiple communities and they would put the money towards whatever account was easiest for them even though we would specify which account we wanted it on.

At one point in time, we had a webpage through them but it was just a basic presence and it wasn't something that they maintained.

    So, Ryan ** suckered me in for another 12 months with YP. I've been trying to cancel for years, but they keep lowering my rate and offering me something new to justify advertising via an obsolete method. I'm willing to keep trying since the price is right and because I liked the idea of trying something new. He said, in addition to the same services I was already being provided he would also throw in some Direct Mail marketing. Great!

    So, come October, I was supposed to begin that process. I had already sent over our logo and artwork... but nothing happened. Come November I called for an update via the YP call center. They said they would have my rep call me back. Never happened. Come December I called for an update via the YP call center. They said they would have my rep call me back. Never happened. Come January I called for an update via the YP call center. They said they would have my rep call me back. Never happened.

    This process is getting quite tedious... because every time the call center takes about 5 minutes to verify my identity/account... and then puts me on hold for 5 to 10 minutes to contact my sales rep... only to come back on the line and say they cannot reach my rep and they will have my rep call me back. Which doesn't happen. I have also tried calling my rep directly... that doesn't work either. FRUSTRATING! So, YP, good job! You'e finally done it... you've driven the nail in your own coffin.

    We do our own in-house marketing stuff. DexYP's services has been great because they've made the changes that needed to be made. We had some name recognition issues, where they had to change everything, but there was a whole bunch of mess across the board and on all the webpages. As far as I know, everything has been switched over. They took care of all the stuff that was mismarked and misnamed on all the service they can get changes made to. We took the basic tier and it took some time to get everything fixed, but there's no way I could have done it myself.

    Let me say that we have been customers of Dex for quite a long time. Our problems began when we signed up for the display brand awareness, the fee was 500.00 a month for a year of which we paid on time. It was not money well spent, when it came time for renewal I told our rep that we wanted it cancelled. He was not happy about it but I did renew our phone book listing which came up for renewal at the same time, the contract I signed had a start date and a end date for the phone book listing but not the online ad so figured it was correct. The following month they billed us for the online listing and my wife paid it thinking it was a phone book ad the next month.

    I realized the mistake and informed them that this ad was cancelled. The only response we got was a past due bill, for 6 months we wrote letters and notes on the bill that the service was not renewed, now a year later we are getting collections companies calling us. The last letter we got from the collections stated they were now charging us a 884.00 collection fee and 400.00 interest and the bill was only 3500.00. I have tried to tell these people that this service was not renewed but to no avail. I still have two other accounts that are up to date for phone book listings. It just drives me crazy that this company will not step up and fix this, I have been using phone book ads for over 30 years now, I am not trying to get something for nothing. I just refuse to pay for something I did not order, please be aware if you cancel a ad with this company write cancel across it and sign your name across it, thanks.

    We've used Dex since it was print yellow pages and we've used YP since it was BellSouth Advertising so DexYP is something that we've used for many years. The experiences were separate before but for both companies, it has all been a good and the customer service is great. We use them for digital and phone book ads and their services are pretty valuable. The internet itself definitely has higher leads but we get leads that suffix through DexYP.

    My mom wanted someone to host her company's website and the DexYP reps we talked to have been really helpful. I do the meetings with Dex Media and my account person always responds to my emails in a very timely manner. We always have our scheduled monthly calls, too. However, there was one issue recently where something went wrong in the portal and our Facebook posts hadn't been posting on our page since August.

    I have business with DexYP for their Yellow Pages and online, and it was a pleasure working with them. The program that we signed up for didn't work out as much as we hoped for. In the beginning month or two, it was good. We have the results, but then it just went downhill after that. We got a little more presence than last year, but not what we were hoping for. We understand that and perhaps we needed to invest more. But, it needed to be more than what we were investing. Maybe they could have communicated with me better. Their explanation for the numbers going down is that we were open 24/7. Then she explained to me that if five days a week to just business hours were actually in the office, that would make our budget wouldn't run out as quickly. That would have been a nice information to have known in the beginning.

    When we first started in business, we needed somebody that could do a webpage for us and DexYP seemed like the ideal match. They’re very conscientious and they were calling monthly. They were getting me on click-throughs and I gave them a $750 monthly budget but they were consistently getting me $250 a month more. They weren't maintaining my budget and I couldn’t afford to keep doing that so, I went with another company to handle that. Also, they seem to change hands a lot with the different people that handle the account which I understand happens in any big business.

    Another part of the problem was that I wasn’t able to give them the feedback that they needed to make the webpage into everything that it could be. I’m sure they could have done it and I can’t blame them completely for the webpage not changing and getting bigger and better. If people need to have something done, DexYP is good but they’re going to have to watch the billing procedures.

    The service they are trying to provide is really just a client management (CRM) system and pair it with their own version of Mail Chimp/Constant Contact and calendar system and want to slap a sizable monthly charge to it for the convenience of using one system. I realized I could find all these systems with leading or better technology platforms for a fraction of the price. Though what got me to try their system was the social media aspect which I thought could add value for the monthly cost. But after signing up, it took a few weeks for a relationship manager to contact me to get me set up on the system and it took the company close to 2 months before a single social media post was posted. It took a few calls but they decided to provide us a month free of charge for their delay.

    Not sold on the system and serving 4 months of the 3 month contract, I cancelled the service in writing and verbally with account manager. (Had 3 different account managers in a 4 month period). I noticed shortly after cancelling another renewal charge for a new month. I called to have them confirm my cancellation again, and to reverse the charge.

    They said the cancellation is confirmed but came up with some excuse that it takes some time to process the cancellation. Fast forward to the next month and again another full charge. Now it seems I cannot get a hold of anyone to help process the return. So let's cut them off from the source. Call the bank and cancel the card and report fraudulent charge. Fast forward another month or so and notice for collection shows up in the mail. This is a service where if I don't pay you cut me off. Oh no. This company has very shady business practices.

I’ve been with them for as long as they’ve been in the Fort Wayne market, which is over 10 years. They’ve bought Superpages and they’ve changed to Dex, so they’re still one and the same. But the DexYP service could be better. The district manager of the Fort Wayne area recently followed-up with me and I wanted to change my contact. The gal that came and serviced my account was not doing a very good job for me. She wasn’t returning my calls so I contacted the district manager, got a new rep, and we’ve been good.

    Also, in some of my Facebook advertising, they put stuff that’s out of season. They put one on there a couple weeks ago about mosquitoes and I’m in Indiana where there are no damn mosquitoes around in December. I told them that, so they got the idea that that post is not going to do a thing for me as that’s like trying to sell a snow blower in July. However, overall, DexYP has done well.

I confirmed with him back in October the correct address and phone number but he went through his records and said that he couldn't understand why we didn't get that new address fixed. He said that he was going to see what he could do as far as offsetting my expense for that particular advertisement in that book. That was 10 days ago and I've not heard anything from him or anyone from DexYP as far as what we're going to do on my bill. Then, my other rep Kevin who I have worked with for many years said that Larnell needed to turn this over to somebody else who was supposed to be reaching out to me but so far no one has.

    After starting a Google Adwords Campaign with DexYP that would proceed for 1 year, the campaign was "paused" in March 2017 due to lack of inquiries or sales. Instead of providing any alternative proposal, DexYP (Dex Media) chose not to communicate with us, but still sent payment notices. In short, DexYP/Dex Media billed for services not rendered. This situation was sent to the Better Business Bureau (BBB) in an attempt to receive the services required in the contract. After 3 communications through the BBB, no mention was made of providing any services, but DexYP/DexMedia continued to bill for services, which they have not provided.

    The conclusion of the BBB and their review was to “determine that the company (DexYP / DexMeda) did not do all that it could have been reasonably expected or been responsible to do to resolve the issue”. It would appear that DexYP / Dex Media has a serious problem with resolving complaints of which 1,648 have been posted with the BBB alone. It would also account for DexYP / Dex Media not being accredited by the BBB and its rating of D+. After sending a letter of complaint to Mr. Joe Walsh, the CEO of DexYP / Dex Media, he simply past it on to a so-called “Executive Care-Team” and did not deem it important to communicate with the customer at all or to express his apologies for the deplorable service of his company.

    My company takes pride and responsibility in providing our clients with the highest quality service we can in return for being paid for these services. It is obvious that DexYP / Dex Media has no moral or ethical responsibility to provide its customers with quality services they are being asked or demanded to pay for. This is a company that should be avoided at all cost. The moral behind this story: no services, no money.

    I had a salesman come to my business and I could not get him to leave without signing a contract. Once he walked away I called to cancel the contract and they would not allow it. When I got my call to renew this year I would not be bullied (it helped that they didn't come in person, I am braver behind a telephone receiver). The sales lady was desperate. I said no, over and over, and eventually was able to end the phone call. A week later I get a call from a manager. I was assured the account was closed. But I just received a notice in the mail and they want more money! This company is terrible, do not let them back you into a corner. Just say no!

    I’ve been with DexYP since I took over the business and that’s been 10 years ago. DexYP customer service has always been good about returning my calls in a timely fashion. The rep Jaimie was awesome. Anything that I ask of her, she knows what I'm talking about because I don’t have the same lingo as they do but they get what I’m saying through the keywords that I’m saying. She knows her product well. DexYP does a lot of my social media anytime I ask for a Facebook website. We are now looking into online product selling and videos.

    There’s a lot of tools with this product which I’m impressed by. They’ve been very valuable to my advertising for what I do. I've only had a few hiccups here and there with them and they’ve worked those things through. The only thing I don’t like is they keep switching campaign managers. I’ve been with them for 10 years so I like the consistency of having the same campaign manager that knows more about the business, a personal rapport in a sense. I'm in the business of services. That’s relational and that makes a lot of difference. Other than that, I would recommend DexYP.

    I cannot begin to EXPLAIN how frustrated this company makes me! I would give NO stars if I could. I've been going back and forth Since March 2017 and it is now October and I'm still battling to get across to them after speaking to: ** and after contacting the BBB, I also received an email from ** -- Let me tell you - UNORGANIZED doesn't even begin to describe this company.

    We brought in a REAL marketing agency who brought to light the already suspected fraudulent activities of DexMedia/DexYP. I've had many phone conferences regarding our accounts with Dex and it was told that the Proxy's (for the SEM & SEO campaigns - the very pricey pay per click ads) were never active when we started hosting on Wix - HOWEVER, we hosted with Wix back in 2013, no one ever notified us or even took the initiative to call us about it, but they would still bill us and we would pay UNKNOWINGLY. With that being said - ** claims to have reached out and sent reports every month - which we have tracks of the emails and that is a lie.

    It was back in 2015 that I started having my suspicions about Dex and spoke to **. ** then came and gave spoke out his ** and somehow or another we signed up for another dreadful year. With much investigation and the help of another marketing team (from people who actually have experience in marketing and GREAT customer service) it was PROVEN that our CLICKS we were paying for were never going to an actual site - I've attached an image of 2 links - I have a TON more.

    Since March I've been stressing and back and forth between DexMedia/DexYP -- I even sent them a portion of their OWN Contact: "NOTICES/HOW TO CONTACT US: All notices, including termination notices to us, must be in writing and mailed by US mail or overnight courier to: DexMedia, 1615 Bluff City Hwy, Briston, TN 37620 or sent by going to www.dexmedia.com/contact-us, and completing the requested information in the "Send us a Message" section. Cancellation notices must include your business name, telephone number and address. for questions about this agreement or your advertising, please call Client Care at 844-DEXMEDIA (339-6334)."

    We have done JUST That!!! I've sent in 2 cancellation letters which have been received and STILL struggling to get any HELP from anyone. We finally received a cancellation letter which doesn't state the account it actually cancels or it doesn't specify the date in which it will be canceled. DexMedia/DexYP are so unspecific and keep any details to a minimum to where you have nothing to stand on. This company can cause you to go into Cardiac-Arrest, the amount of stress and hub-la they put people through and ripping them off.

Most of our business will be with contractors and other large companies so they know who they're going to talk to about putting bids in for jobs way before they even get started. The only people that we're going to be getting with Dex's services are consumers and those in the residential area which is the smaller part of our business.

    I have been with some form of Dex Media since 1998. I recently decided that due to the fact that their phonebook is almost nonexistent, that I no longer wanted to participate. When I got emails and phone calls I just ignored them most importantly considering that they said I needed to have a new contract. To me that means what? That means I need to have a new contract. If I don't have a contract then we are done. But apparently I had a contract and now I still have a contract without ever doing anything. What kind of bogus deal is this? I will definitely be contacting the Atty. Gen. of my state. Per a telephone conversation with Dex, they seem to be of the attitude that it is just tough luck. If I have to continue paying for another year's advertising with Dex, you can believe I will do everything in my power to let people know what they are in for. I guess the old adage of buyer beware is appropriate here.

After every call I would get an email case closed then by email and every time another email case closed. It wasn't fixed. Only after I stopped auto pay did they actually fixed. Now all the while my digital presence is being slammed by YP. They're having negative effects on my SEO efforts that was over 6 months into my ad with them. Now my summer is over. My website goes to first page like it should have from first complaints to many reps. Nobody takes the customer service as long as you're in auto pay. I offered to pay for 6 months. They screwed it up for 8 months. All they want is your money.

    Results don't matter between deceptive postcards and all the runaround with how they don't deliver on what they advertise. 7 18 17 is when they finally fixed my address. Once errors with Google went into effect website went right to first page. It's all verifiable yet they insist I pay for 6 months. They screwed up. A good company would accept their mistakes and agree with customer not YP. First put my marketing efforts down, hamper them as much as you could. I begged you to release my dashboard. You weren't getting it done. You killed my summer profits down over 50%. You would fix or release. Now we're at a standstill not paying a non performing and detrimental company to my company.

    Having DexYP’s services is very valuable to my company. They monitor my website and I get a lot of compliments about it. People like it and say it’s easy to get around and look at it. DexYP reached out to me many years ago. They were interested if I wanted to put a phone book ad at the time, and I was. Because I was first-time customer, they gave me a good deal. And then, I renewed the service and I had to go bigger every year. When they added services on the internet, everything started to become a package deal type of thing. Their customer service is also great. I’ve had the same contact person every year which has been awesome, unlike before where I got a different person yearly.

    However, when DexYP started to do online payments, it was tricky for me. When I put in the information before, the system didn’t accept it. There’s a little green triangle up on the right-hand corner which didn’t say what it was. I told my rep about this because this kept on happening and the system kept on asking for a four-number code. My rep had the research team and they said, “We don’t know what you’re talking about.” So, I showed her and she said, “I don’t know what that’s for.” No one knew what it’s for until I pushed that green triangle accidentally and then it turned upside down and everything went through. It was all good and I didn’t need the four-digit code. It took a long time for it to be figured out. If I didn’t hit it by accident, I would’ve probably still been pulling my hair out thinking, “How am I going to make this payment?” Still, I have been recommending DexYP.

    I stupidly decided to try DexYP Media's services hoping to drive more traffic to my website. When I spoke with Clint, the Business Automation Specialist, he assured me that the only subscription I would be subscribing to was a month to month contract. I made it perfectly clear that I did not want to be involved with anything that wasn't month to month. Clint said, "You could try it for a month or even 3 months and if you didn't like it, you could cancel." I thought, okay, I'll do it. He put me on the phone with a verifier and at NO time did I agree to a 1-year subscription, nor did they tell me anything about cancelling within 21 days. Well, in less than 30 days of my first month, I noticed that my bank account had been debited for the month to month fee of $59.00. So I called Dex Media to complain about them taking money from my bank account 4 days prior to my first 30 days expiring.

    I complained because today (10.5.17), my 92-year-old parent's assisted living rent was due and this deduction left me short. By my calculations, Oct 9, 2017, is when my account should have been debited, provided I wanted to keep the service. To my surprise, I was told the same thing many of you here were told, that I had committed to a 1-year subscription and that I had 21 days to cancel, instead of 30 days. When I asked for my money back and said that I want to cancel my subscription, I was told, the internal credit card team would be the ones to make the decision to refund my money and cancel my supposed 1-year subscription.

    If anyone wants to join in my submitting a request for the California Attorney General to investigate these practices by Dex Media, please let me know. I believe the phone verification was altered, I would NEVER have committed to a 1-year subscription. There's something not right about this company and I intend to get to the bottom of it!

    DexYP formally known as Dex Media stakes many claims to help companies with their online presence. Good luck if you enter into a contractual agreement with this company, you will find it extremely difficult to get out of it, worse yet the services they provide you can not even be quantified as services. They claim to be a Google partner, and offer you a very expensive platinum advertising package, but will not deliver results. When we finally realized what was happening with our Dex SEM campaign that cost us over $1500/month, we filed a complaint with them asking for termination of our contract. After a knock down drag out they finally conceded and sent us a formal cancellation letter in the mail. The cancellation notice stated our SEM contract was cancelled as of 9/16/16 and nothing more was due.

    We paid the last bill which cleared on 10/13/17. We never ceased receiving invoices, even though there were no services being rendered and Dex has sent us to collections 3 times since, I received the 3rd call today. I was also visited by 2 salespeople who tried to sell me a new contract and told that Google is very expensive to advertise on. Every time I tell the debt collectors the whole story and that we will not be paying. If you have a contract with Dex, do your research and make sure they are delivering on their promises.

    If you don't have a contract with Dex or another SEM company, stay away! Try doing your own SEM through Google AdWords, it is easy. You can control your budget and territory, and you will definitely receive results, something you will not receive from DexYP. I decided to take matters into my own hands because I was tired of throwing money away on SEM campaigns that were not delivering results for our small company. Money is precious and these so called advertising companies are feeding on customers who don't educate themselves.

    I saw this business when I was trying to start up my business. I decided after receiving a few phone calls that I would see what this business has to offer. After seeing what all they would do for me for $199.00/month I thought sure this will be good! I was under the impression that I could cancel my website whenever I need to if I had a change of plans or something. So I decide to move forward with paying the $199 and getting set up. After spending the next few weeks in contact with the website manager I got really excited because I felt like he was doing all the right things to make my business really get up and running with advertisement. Just a few weeks later I ended up getting a new job. This job was great and was perfect for gaining experience in the field where I received my degree. The only problem was I just didn't get paid a lot of money.

    No problem though. I thought "that's ok I'll just cancel my website since I don't need it anymore and save myself $199/month" so I contact my account people. They respond with "you're on a 12 month contract" so I talk to the person who set me up and told her I never agreed to a 12 month contract and I simply cannot afford it due to my new job. She was understanding and said she would have her supervisor contact me. Well a day later $199 was taken out of my account. A week later I STILL had not received a phone call from her supervisor. So I email them on a Friday letting them know that it has been a week without contact. They never responded. So I emailed again today and they send me their supervisor's contact information. The supervisor says "you'll have to get in contact with this person" so I get in contact with them and tell them I'm out of business and I want a refund.

    Well he said the only way I could do that was by discontinuing the phone line associated with the business. Well that's a problem because the phone line is my personal cell number. So then he goes to say I'm in the 12 month contract and that's all he can do. So I had him play the recording of my phone conversation where "I agreed to a 12 month contract". Never once did the recording prove that I agreed to this contract. So now he's saying I gotta get back in contact with the person I originally went to to get my account taken care of. This is a rip off of a company and I am EXTREMELY disappointed and frustrated with them. My next step is to just close my bank account so they can't steal my money.

They acknowledged on time but yet still failed to correct the digital and phonebook ads. They still want to charge me for eight months of these ads being incorrect. They then told me they would get it correct by this time. We were closed for the season so the advertisement was useless. Then they called the next year wanting to renew it and I explain to them I probably wasn't going to advertise with them any longer she asked me to review some information and she would give me a discount.

    She wanted me to do a verbal agreement of contract over the phone which I refused so she said she would mail me a copy for me to review if I would consider advertising with them further. I did not send in the contract and told them I no longer wanted to advertise with them. Now it has been another few months. They are still sending me bills saying I now have to pay for another year because I didn't cancel the previous contract in writing with them... As of July this year they still had the phonebook information incorrect after 1 year and a couple months. Every time you call in to try to talk to someone they hand you off to a senior account executive who then tries to belittle you and speak over you the entire time saying if you would just shut up and listen to them we would be able to get through this but their answer every time is, "Sorry you still have to pay it." Horrible customer service. Horrible company. Horrible follow through.

    I will be sure to tell everyone I know to never use this company. Very disappointed for something you would think would be customer-oriented as we are the ones that pay the bill to keep you in business you would think you would want 100% satisfaction guaranteed. Not the case at all. I couldn't personally charge a customer if I didn't do the job correct the first time. I wouldn't expect them to pay anything and I sure wouldn't try to trap them into a continuous contract after they told me they didn't want to advertise with me anymore... Next step Better Business Bureau then I will be contacting the owner of this company personally through different channels...

    DexYP was the phone book in the town when we started advertising in 1988. Their customer service was pleasant, kind and people have always treated us well. They were great in the beginning but they dropped back a little bit over the years since we didn’t get the phone calls from their phone book as much as we did from Yellowbook or Yelp. We want customers to look for our information up and call us so we can sell them pest control. We keep track of all of our advertising and if someone calls anytime, we ask how they found us. We’re still using whatever listing is in there and we’ll keep the smaller ads but we’ve drifted over to Hibu and Yelp. The book just got too big and people like the smaller books.

    We had been using Dex Media for more than a few years now. I came on board in October trying to figure out their marketing situation. They are one of our go-to guys and we just continue using them. They also have very good customer service and we have frequent conversations and meetings with our account manager who has really been top notch. The manager has been very courteous and knowledgeable. DexYP is extremely easy to use and connect to. They are very helpful, informative, extremely professional and overall we've been having a very good experience.

    We have their SEO and pay-per-click in the radius services. They have been extremely valuable. Anything marketing-related, it goes a really a long way for us here. Marketing-wise, they have more people come to your business. There are more views on your page and more people clicking on your advertisements. I'm an IT guy and not a marketing guy. I've kind of tried to wear several hats here recently. But New York City, specifically, is very difficult to advertise in and market to because there are so many people. It screws with the budget and with your radius. We've been working very closely trying to fix all of those little issues and fine-tune and tweak here and there as we go.

    Over the course of the past couple of months, we've really gotten into a place where we need to be and the results are showing it. We've seen good results, especially recently while using DexYP's services. With them, what you see is what you get. There are no workarounds. It's convenient and straightforward. We're going to be allocating more of our budget towards DexYP in the near future.

But more recently, we switched over to some of the online marketing and advertising options to keep up with the times. We've switched to Google searches and we have Facebook through them as well, which has definitely freed up some of the things that I had to do so that's nice. Although they’ve switched up the SEM person periodically, they've always let us know who the new one is, and anytime we need anything or have a question, we're always able to reach out and get a response back.

    I signed up for Dex Media packages. First was free listings and to drive traffic to my site, then Dex hub with social marketing and social media management and was promised a better e-commerce website other than the one I already had all for a price of $199.99. But the price was prorated because of previously purchase packages. Getting the site would have made the package complete. All in all the prorated price was $125.00 but $299.99 was taken from my account.

    All the phone calls I received were consumers looking for other businesses. The Dex hub never worked. I was told to give it some time and then refresh but still never worked. I was told they would post to my social sites on my behalf, No post were ever made to my social media sites. The local listings somewhere never claimed and if so it had the wrong business information up. When spoke to the website developer I was then informed they don't do social sites. So now it's time to just cancel and when I did so I find out she had me locked in a 12 month agreement. I never received my money back that they took and my account is still active with them and I am still getting billed.

    I have called and spoke with a number of people trying to get this resolved and it's never been resolved and Dex Media still has control of my listings. This company is a liar and a rip off. I have since seen 100's of bad reviews about them and see what they have did to me has been done to other people. There is over 48 complaints on www.rippoffreport.com for this company and also bbb.org as well as social media and Google. They refuse to cancel my account. I have taken pictures of all the listings. My next step is to hire a lawyer. Save yourself a headache and never do business with them. I wish I would have seen the reviews before agreeing to do business because I never signed anything. It was a verbal agreement over the phone. Everyone I have spoken to say they can't help me resolve this issue.

At our meeting he explained that they would create a website and a account manager would contact me to work up a marketing campaign. After several weeks of phone conversations with a web designer in March, I was up and running. My Salesman promised 1st page exposure and if I did not receive one Customer phone call, he would cancel my contract.

I have never received a single call from my Dex ad and they will not release me from my contract. They have my business information wrong on the listing.

    After many weeks of waiting for them to set up my account, after paying them of course, they made the excuse of some technical glitches on their end. When I finally gave up and asked for my money back, they ignored my requests and kept telling me they were working on the issue. I then made it very clear that I was no longer interested but they still have not refunded my money. As a small business, I can refund a customer's money in minutes so I'm frustrated by this delay. I'd like to get back to business and not worry about this issue any longer.

    Updated on 09/05/2017: First, I just checked DexYPs Better Business Bureau's rating. Their accreditation has been REVOKED. Should have checked this before I got involved with them. This is really saying something because there are similar companies on the BBB site that have stats like 68 complaints, 11% positive reviews, 89% negative reviews and still have an A+ rating (Yext, Inc.) Here's another one: Yelp.com. With a government injunction against them for endangering children's information, which is posted on the BBB site, and with 4 positive reviews, 10 neutral reviews and 329 negative reviews (96%), not to mention over 1400 complaints, they still maintain a B+ rating. So then, how bad is DexYP if their accreditation is revoked by the same watchdog agency?

    Now the update: After posting a complaint on this site, I was FINALLY contacted by DexYP and my money has been refunded after two months of fighting for it. I believe this is thanks to the Consumer Affairs website. I was getting nowhere with my contacts at DexYP. A comment was made by one contact at DexYP that makes me think the issue lies with their internal commission structure - that no one in the sales channel will give up a customer no matter what - at least until some report is out - whatever that means.

    Anyway, even though my issue is now resolved, I would still recommend you stay clear of DexYP, and similar services like Yext, Yelp, etc. They all misrepresent their effectiveness in order to gain a sale. Also, they only can help with a small piece of the marketing. If you just want to manage what they claim to help with, hire a bright high school kid who needs a job. They can be trained in minutes and do the work for much less money/ Plus, you're helping your community.

    My personal solution to our marketing needs was to hire a reputable marketing/advertising firm that handles everything Dex, Yext, Yelp, Hubspot and similar companies do for the same price as just ONE of these services. They can even handle website, print and mail if I need it. I can't recommend them yet, I just started with them, but I think this is a much better alternative than one of these self-promoting groups that highly inflate their own value. Finally, the best news is that when I get calls from marketing salespeople I tell them that I have hired a marketing agent who makes all the marketing suggestions. They leave me alone FAST.

    We’ve been working with DexYP for a while and their customer service has been outstanding but we had one representative that was not as good as the others. She wasn’t effective in scheduling and didn’t have a good idea of the business. She has general-apply business principles across different areas rather than being specifically made into our business. She was bringing up data and different things which didn’t apply even if it’s an example. It was way off from how we practice medicine and it was reiterated. Told her that I skipped so many emails a day and if she wants me to take action on something, she needs to give me a call so I can make sure to find it and I’ll get back right away. The communication wasn’t there because most of the representatives are very accommodating when I get them faster answers so they can work on it. They immediately took action and switched us to another representative who was effective.

    We have a website, banner ads, SEO, SEM and an email through DexYP. The SEM and SEO products are very interesting to deal with. The people we had doing SEM had been helpful. The SEO part is very challenging for our work environment and they’ve stayed on top of things. The people that worked with us have been outstanding and I’m happy with their product and service.

    I requested an account cancellation in November 2016 to switch to another source for web service. Thought everything was completed then I received a bill in March. Contacted a source to correct the error and received another bill in May. After contacting another agent, (now granted, I could never get the same contact more than once after I emailed them) I get a collections email from a third party to pay a bill in excess of $500.

    I find out today that they have an advertising contract that continued to bill for 12 months when there is no website to advertise on. My favorite part is 'Unfortunately you still have to pay the balance'? Who does that? Why on Earth would I need to advertise if I don't have a website with your company and why would you not disclose this back in 2016 or any of the other times I inquired about this mystery bill? Absolutely the worst company ever and I regret the day I opened my account with this service!

    I made the mistake of donating my hard earned money to DexYP around 1 month ago. After receiving several calls from a sales person harassing me while at work, I finally gave one of these parasite salesman a chance. Of course he made every lie that spilled out of his mouth sound good. I made a huge mistake listening to him, because I threw away $160 off my money, with nothing to show. That's right, absolutely zero. Dex took my money with all of their promises, and did nothing. It was admitted by several of their employees, that they "dropped the ball."

    Now that I want nothing to do with this company, they refuse to give my money back and say I'm locked in for a year, even though I clearly told the sales person I didn't want a commitment when signing up. Basically what happened here is I paid for a job to be done. Dex did not do what their salesperson promised, at all. Nothing. When I caught on to it, they refuse to refund me for doing nothing. In my opinion and experience, Dex media is a company taking donations to pay their employees to do nothing. That's exactly nothing. Do not trust Dex. Keep your money, unless you want to support Dex's scamming thieving way of doing business. This company is fraudulent, and will do what they can to screw you out of your money.

    I've been with the company for a very long time. I first started off with Verizon and then it went to SuperMedia. And then it became Dex Media. Before then, I had all these other reps and I was paying a thousand some dollars a month and they were robbing me blind with unnecessary things. Then Tom came on and he saved me. He started the website and got me into that. Then Scott took over his territory and the whole experience with him was top of the line. But then, they changed his area and they expected us to do everything over the phone and I can't do that. I would need to work with somebody who'll explain. I was given somebody else and that's when it went downhill again.

    For a while there, DexYP made mistakes. They put the wrong times and they said that we were closed seven days a week. I lost business because of it and they only reimbursed me for a couple of months when that had been like that for longer. I wasn't really happy with that and it was a horrible experience, and then I was notified that the rep quit. I specifically asked for Scott again and when they reassigned him to me, everything went really good. He's a very detailed person and he made me feel very comfortable. I felt like everything was going in the right direction and they specifically showed me how my questions and the errors were all corrected.

    Scott and I connected with Taylor and Stacey and it has been awesome working with the three of them. I'm one guy doing everything and I work so much that I don't have time to be on top of everything. I would write down the questions that I need to ask so I don't forget, then I would give them the questions and they would have their answers. They helped me out a lot. Plus, I can always reach out to Stacey or Scott and they return my calls immediately. Once I had emailed Stacey to say I don't check my email all the time and to ask if she could just give me a call, and I got my call within that day. I would definitely recommend them, especially to somebody who works a lot and doesn't have time to do Facebook. One of their team members can handle all of it and that really takes a load off of you. At the same time, you know it's being done right so that's a really good feeling.

    As executor of my sister's estate who used Dex Media I have tried multiple times to close her account and still have been unsuccessful. I have now been transferred to the disputes department and have been sent termination of business materials to fill out and also to provide documentation in order to close. This in itself is not a problem, I am fine with filling out forms but what they require borders on the extreme and makes it impossible to close in a timely fashion, while they simply continue to bill on a monthly basis. I must show proof that all phone lines (home, business, cell, etc) and URL's have been discontinued which has taken 5 months just for her office phone because it has taken that long to liquidate her business, but the required proof of final statement will take another month after the disconnect for the statement to arrive. And this is just her office phone.

    Then the Dex forms require a notary and a sworn statement that one has not perjured themselves? Requirements for certificates of dissolution? As executor, I have managed and closed all of her accounts save Dex. It's informative that they don't even have an Estate department like every other organization I have dealt with. My only option is disputes? I personally will never use Dex media for my own advertising.

Dex Media has increased our presence on Google search results in a significant and measurable way during the time that we've worked with them. We are just much more visible–more customers are finding us, contacting us, writing reviews etc... they also have a really need hub that allows you to login, see and respond to any comments that are published on the internet about our company. They do a fantastic job when it comes to internet marketing. I would recommend them to anyone looking for increased visibility.

    We got Dex Media for the advertising in the phonebook and every year when the lease comes around, they call us to know if we wanted to renew it and that's when we negotiate the price, what we need and want, and go from there. They have helped our business a lot because when people call they say, "Where are you located?" So they don't really know where we're located and by that, it's telling me they've got the phone number either off the internet or off the phonebook. Also, their customer service has been excellent.

    We really enjoyed working with Dex Media and the relationship and the assistance they give us. I've personally worked with them going on four years and I've worked with Eric and Melissa who did a great job revamping our website. Eric calls at least once a month and sees if I need anything. If I have a customer issue or customer service problem, one of those two have already called me or they already took care of it. Also, the designers were wonderful and they did a lot of good work for us.

    With a lot of the advertisements that they've helped vamp and refresh, it's brought in some more business for us. I’m not a big tech when it comes to trying to keep up with some of the stuff on the website that’s technically under my domain to watch but they do an excellent job checking on it. Melissa calls me all the time to tell me there were a couple of things she'd done and shows me what’s going on. She’ll also send things to me to give me a heads up if something's going on, something's dropped or we've some extra impressions that have come across. It’s a great access for me in helping me keep up with my advertisement with those different things that’s come in that I may not have noticed and she stays on top of that really well.

    From the get go, Dex Media and its representatives and management has done nothing but lie to me about the products and services I would be provided. I must add before I start, that the only reason why I went with Dex Media was to help a friend out who worked for this company that got credit for the sale. However, never once did they mention I was going to be under contract. Their Facebook post are very elementary and do not gain traction. The website they created isn't mobile friendly and mediocre at best. The marketing they promised is nothing even close to what I got.

    Asked for a business phone number that they created for me and placed on all of multiple marketing and advertising information just to have them tell me that I don't own the phone number and they disconnected it. A COMPLETE WASTE OF TIME, MONEY, & EFFORT. I would HIGHLY HIGHLY NOT recommend Dex Media to anyone, even if DexMedia offered $10,000 for the referral. Do not use this company!

The yellow pages is not important to me at all because I don’t feel that it's a source that people use in this area because we’re small. We know who we want to call. And I’m not looking for the ad in the yellow pages because it’s worthless to me. In my industry if you check the yellow pages all local people have one little liner ad there because the 1800 companies buy the full and half page ads. We can’t touch that and they’re not even local people. They ended up sending me orders because they don’t have a flower shop. They have big ads and make lots of money as they charge people around $20 every time they order something. It’s a bad deal. That’s why I spend as little as I can.

    We are a seasonal business, so we go south for the winter months, November through March, and come back to the midwest a few days each month to pay bills, etc. We use Dex for 3 different areas; resulting in 3 different billings. In May of 2017, we received a past due letter stating we were 6 months delinquent on one of our bills (I'll call this #1 for future reference). I called and inquired and was told one of our billings were returned to them, so they thought our address had changed. (They were still sending the other two billings)

    I spoke with Wayne on 5/22/17, and told him we would like to cancel all the contracts (which he said we had to pay them until the end of the contract) and so I asked him the dates for each contract that we had to cancel by. #1 before 1/29/18, #2 before 1/11/18 and #3 before 9/27/17. He also said he would make sure the #1 billing would come to our original address like it used to.

    On 6/26/17 I received 2 Dex Media bills, and once again did not get #1 bill. I called (6/26/17) and spoke with Norman, who said we were past due on bill #1 again. I told him we did not receive a bill and he said it was changed to electronic. I asked him how it was sent, (email, website, etc) and he said via email. I asked him to what email address, and he said he was unable to verify the email address. (How did they send it by email if they didn't have our email on file?) I asked him what our totals were to pay these off through the end of our contracts, and cancel the service, and he said #1 was June 2018, #2 was April 2018 and #3 was Oct 2017. SO THE DATES FOR #1 and #2 had been extended in just one month's time!!!!!!

    ALSO, he said billing #3 had a digital contract on it that had been okayed in December (when we were in Florida) that was from May 2017 to May 2018. I asked Norman for a voice recording showing where we had approved it (because we didn't, we weren't even in the state), and he sent me to the resolution department, and they could not find the voice recording. I told Norman to cancel ALL contracts - case # **. Also I was told our account manager Brett ** would call and it's been two days with no call. I was told the resolution dept "Nikki" would open a case # ** to investigate all of our issues.

    Updated on 07/27/2017: They said they had followed up. Yes, they called, but said they'd call me back after they had checked into my problem and didn't. I called them and no response, until I called the supervisor. My problem is still "being looked into" and NOT resolved.

The customer service at Dex has been really helpful about making changes or making sure that we know what our advertising is for the yellow pages and if we need anything changed for the white pages. They also keep us updated a couple of times a year. They call us in the spring to make sure it’s ready before the phonebook comes, which is usually in October. They call and check if we’re happy with the way the bold type is, if we need to add more advertising or if we want to make more listings.

    After using Dex Media (and their predecessor) for over 10 years, our small company finally decided to stop taking their horrible customer service and failure to timely credit billing issues for our print and internet advertising. Our Dex Media sales representative acknowledged the significant service inconsistencies and egregious billing issues.

    During December 2016 we finally terminated services. Our Dex representative provided written proof of the credit adjustments issued to our account and acknowledged our account has been paid in full (after another sales representative lost a check for $18,000). Yet, Dex Media continues to treat our account as if we are currently delinquent (again, we terminated services and paid in full with receipt). Moreover, Dex submitted the reversed adjustment amount to a collection agency. The account representative that originally settled our account will not return our calls and the collections department claims it has no record of the adjustments. We are extremely frustrated and concerned that Dex Media refuses to respond. The company engages in deceptive and unfair trading practices that continue long after you terminate services.

    After they hung up, I asked the secretary for his number. It was a Nevada phone #. When I called it, I could hear several solicitors in the background.

    Dex Media was previously on contract with us to be handling our print media like phone books. Then, they expanded their services and they had the option for online web presence package which is what we have them contracted for. Primarily, they're handling our web presence campaign now including internet advertising, marketing and search engine optimization.

    What they do is they partner us up with one individual like a campaign manager and mine is Jonathan. They run the campaign, I give them parameters and they fit it into Google terms so that what I'm looking to accomplish works with Google. Our advertising campaign works within a five-mile demographic and they know what Google's looking for in terms of things. They were able to manipulate that and see what search cues within our geographical radius already pop up. That way, we don't start advertising to people that are maybe advertising a similar service but a different product.

    Working with them, there's definitely been a noticeable increase in traffic, both through the phones and through the website. It's not critical but it is nice to have. They brought us funerals. 100%. Funeral homes are very specific breed and most families know where they're going before a death occurs. But, they've definitely given us a better web presence. It's obvious that people are looking for us on the internet and that's evident by both the traffic that I see coming through their web server proxy to our emails to our website. We also have call whispers so if a call comes through one of their ads on Google, when we pick up the phone it says this is a call from Dex Media before the person is able to start speaking.

    About 10 years ago, when the internet was becoming more and more viable as an advertising tool and Yellow Pages was going to be a thing of the past, Dex Media reached out to us and we found it to be the best one for us to put our positioning in the internet search engine. I've had great customer service. Ruby's my local rep and she's done an excellent job. She gives me good guidance. That's part of the reason we're involved with the social media portion of it.

    Their group that maintains our social media, especially Facebook, has done an outstanding job. They keep us current. They're doing something that I would not take the time to do. I do the other marketing, mostly with the TV and radio. I'm afraid that I would falter and probably do a lousy job in keeping the social media portion updated. But for the money that we pay them, they do a super job. I couldn't ask more of them.

    As an integral part of our whole marketing plan, they fill that gap quite well. I'm finding it becoming more and more viable every time I post something on our program and see what kind of a result I get. The only problem with social or internet media is, even though there's report after report after report, you don't get quite the same immediate impact as you would with local television or radio.

    It's fairly easy when most of the customers walk in and say they saw our commercial on TV. They don't often think that they did a search on the internet, too. And that is Dex. So, the customers do a lot of research and they get vital information. And it's a very important part of our whole program. Could we settle on internet marketing alone? Absolutely not. Could we do without it? Probably not, especially the way the future's going on with the good old millennials. It's something that is an absolute necessity in this market.

    They way the climate of the market's going, newspaper is almost gone, even though it does still have a little bit relevance. The day's gonna come when we will be totally out of newspaper and then, I'll be looking at Dex further for other ideas. But, right now I feel pretty complete with the programs that we've got with them. I'm happy with it. Could they do better? Of course, they can always do better. But they're fulfilling the obligation and the promises that they made us. I have no complaints.

    I have been advertising with Dex Media for many years, & the number of phone calls I have been getting from advertising with them has been fewer & fewer. So I decided when my sales rep called me in Jan to not advertise with them & told the rep so. He told me I was getting all these calls & I told him to send me all the phone #'s so I could look at them. I have a tracking phone #. This was in Jan. Never heard back from him for weeks & then he called me again to renew & I told him to send me those phone #'s, which he did that day. I looked at them & they were all out of state #'s, which told me they were telemarketers. I have always been called every year by someone at Dex Media to renew & they go thru a process of making sure I want to renew for another year & they also send me a copy of my ad to change or keep as is.

    I never got that phone call or that copy of ad. So I thought the sales rep. gave up on getting my renewal. Then I got a billing from them. I called them right away & they told me that the one year contract was automatically renewed. I asked why the sales rep never got back to me to talk about renewal or why I didn't get copy of ad to approve. He told me he didn't know. I sure Dex Media thought I wasn't going to renew & didn't contact me anymore because of this automatic renewal. I also had him listen to conversation between me & sales rep & he agreed that I had told rep. I wasn't going to renew. The catch was that I didn't say the word cancel. What a corrupt company. They don't call or write & that way they got you for one more year, you're automatically renewed!

    The company was already with Dex Media prior to me working there. When we first started out they were just in the books and then Dex grew into online marketing so then we put a lot more presence in our online marketing campaign and it's been pretty valuable to our company. It's a good way to put our business out there any way we can. My overall experience with the customer service is really good too. I really like my reps for both the online and the books. They're always pretty responsive whenever I have any questions.

    Signed up with Marcia ** with DEX Media in November 2016... After signing up and paying for services my campaign manager set up a time to meet to discuss my campaign and go over a plan and reports, she missed the meeting. No call no show, and didn't call for days and days. Finally made a call when I was with a customer so I missed it. Called right back, left a message and never returned my call, I sent an email asking for my reports and to make changes to my campaign and no callback. It's now May 2017 and I haven't heard from a campaign manager, or received any month reports.

    I have no clue what DEX Media has done for me besides take my money and run. I have reached out to my sales rep. and management and they basically said, "Too bad you signed a contract..." This company is a straight scam, I will be pursuing legal action and have made a report with the BBB and Attorney General's office. Potential customers of DEX Media beware. They are a straight corrupt scammer company. Attorney General responded that this could be a class action lawsuit with all the complaints coming in... Be very aware!

    Updated review: June 14, 2017

    I received a call from Somer at Dex and I must say she was a breath of fresh air. She listened, asked good questions and understood the problems I had encountered. It was too late to change the print books, but she quickly investigated and found resolutions to the other issues. The online listing (which she confirmed I do have) was able to be updated. She also let me know that I could add a paragraph with a description of my business. She changed my contract so that next year it cannot renew without my verification and approval. Somer reviewed my account and we found that the website they had listed was not mine, but a site that belongs to someone who had worked with me over 10 years ago! Now the correct website is listed. She also requested a new rep for me as I do not want to continue with the one I had. In my 30 years of running a business I have spent a lot of time and effort personally learning and training my staff in great communication skills, so I can recognize when that is what I am receiving. Somer was knowledgeable, clear, and very helpful and is the reason I will stay with Dex media for now.

    Original Review: May 15, 2017

    I tried repeatedly to get a hold of my contact person Elijah at Dex Media since January of this year (today is May 15). I left messages that my address was changing for my business. I made note of at least 9 phone messages I left him. Having been in business for 30 years I have never had this kind of trouble getting a listing updated. I finally got a hold of him today and he lied about the dates that the books were being printed. Said the one I could still change if I got back to him within the next day or two. He transfers me to Dave in customer care, and stays on the line as well. Tells Dave I only tried to call him 3x (?) After asking questions I find out that both of my listings (2 books) were already out. One started April 1st and the other May 1st - ending April 30 2018.

    So now I have 2 listings that I am expected to pay for that have my incorrect old address on them for the next year, and the attitude from both of them seemed like "oh well, the contract says..." Too bad for me. Elijah should have made sure that he connected with me over the last few months. Especially when I had repeatedly said when leaving messages that it was important as there were changes I needed to make. I can't tell you how frustrated I am at this moment. Dave contradicted what Elijah told me about the contract dates etc. and it appears that Dave is correct. Too late to change either one. Elijah had also told when I asked that I did have an online listing... While Dave says I do not. I will make another call tomorrow to talk to a third person. It does appear that we missed the deadline for those books. Terrible customer service.

    Dex Media bought the Yellow Page Book that was pre-existing. It was a merger so we followed into that. The customer service has been very good and their services have been pretty valuable to our company. They do our custom website and get our keywords in the search engines. The web presence certainly helped and the way it's been run is very good.

    I was looking for growth and more advertising and Dex Media created me a website, search engine marketing and optimization. Julia was my campaign manager and she did a fantastic job. I've dealt with her for almost a year now. They've been good. They've done everything I asked and answered any questions that I had and they were pretty timely on everything. There has been more hits and growth. I actually increased our budget two months ago and things just have taken off since then. They have been very valuable to the company.

    Contacted Dex Media to cancel my services. Was passed from my account rep who played the "Whenever you need anything, I'm here" routine when I was signing up, but quickly passed me onto someone else when I wanted to cancel. That individual's name is Megan, pretty useless on all accounts. Asked to cancel my contract and she said they had to "move accounts", which I did prior to this with removing any attachment they had with my domain, hosting, Facebook, etc. Contacted them three days in a row asking for a cancellation notice and receipt and it has yet to be provided, but surely they are just holding out to charge me again. Will be regularly posting where-ever, when-ever I can about this company until not only is my account cancelled but my payments are refunded in full.

    Our current website was not up to par and we needed someone to handle our marketing. We're tired of going to multiple different places so we went with Dex Media and started with them a couple of years ago. Dex Media does our website support, the Search Engine Optimization, and Adwords. Also, we're now getting into using the Dex hub because our website went live last week. Their services have been very valuable to us. We've made a couple of changes and we've already seen a noticeable difference in the past couple of weeks from when we met with our sales marketing representative.

    Their customer service has been very courteous and helpful. But one thing that is a very big negative for us is the change in campaign managers and we've had so many, which is a little bit ridiculous to us. We've just got another one last week. We have to explain things over and over again to different people and it seems they're gone after two weeks. Other than that, Dex Media has been perfectly fine.

    We did the website with Dex Media and we've had a lot of positive feedback with customers being able to just email us from the website to our email and get service that way. I use Dex Media to keep the website current because I wouldn’t know how to do that to save my life. Every now and then they email me and ask for updated pictures or things and if I have anything I send it to them and they handle it from there. I like that they're able to do that for us and I don't have to worry about it.
