These guys think they can still call people and swindle them even though the internet is PLASTERED with negative reviews and accusations of fraud. Our company is reporting the call to the proper authorities here in Canada and working closely with the CRTC to eliminate their calls for other people. What they are doing is illegal and their days are numbered. Don't buy into their smooth talking. If you live in Canada and get a call, be sure to report it to the CRTC. They don't need the phone number...

Totally agree
Dot com Chrome .com chrome G Chrome dot com Platinum are complete scamsters.
They took money out of our card until we cancelled it then didn't activate another one
Threats and phone calls one after another
over 10 hours in total on the p[hone to Trading Standards and Greater Manchester Police who were of little use
DO NOT GIVE CARD DETAILS or you will very much regret it because of the standover tactics

We were duped into advertising with these clowns last year, we then cancelled after the first month ater we read their reviews & found that they were not doing what they had originally promised.

I signed up from a telemarketing call from dot com chrome (chrome-media.eu and now gmedia-eu.com) and it sounded like they would be great. As it turns out, I couldnt tell if they were doing anything at all. I searched for my own company on google and I was never appearing in the top results as they had promised.

Please beware of any one from this group of businesses who calls you offering to get you onto the front page of google for a fixed fee. They do not deliver. When you try to cancel the contract you must give 30 days in writing (which I did). They the tirade of abusive emails starts from Jamie the CEO of the business.

These complaints are spot on. They all follow the same pattern. The take you money and when you try to cancel they say they never received the letter. Then they rip money out of your account when you are not expecting it. You think that they have received your cancellation, no money is taken out of your credit card then Wham 2 months later they take your money. Their staff send you belligerent emails which defy belief. They belong in the gutter until someone locks them up....

This is the review that is probably fake or by now this person has figured out what they are really doing. Don't take just one sites word for their reputation. Search the internet and see what people are saying about them. Nothing beats doing your own google adwords account. Read up on it, learn how to do it yourself.

Chrome Marketing UK are a total waste of money, you get a sales call which is not recorded. Then they ring you back and record this call, of course, with the recorded call they only repeat what is in their favour. I did get impressions (this would have cost them nothing with adwords), but no hits as far as I could tell. I certainly didn't get one enquiry. I let it run for a few months as they said it would get better - it didn't. I was told that they would monitor my campaign and adjust as needed,...

Other reviewers have said they have written to cancel but they say they have not received the letter. On top of it all they did not provide the phrases I agreed...

They were so friendly on the phone when they were taking my payment and then nothing happened. I got the confirmation emails of what they were going to do which was full of errors to which you can only talk to them by phoning a £1.50 per minute number. Even then no changes were made. They tell you that to cancel you have to write in and then they never receive the letter. I had to cancel my card otherwise they would have kept billing me.
