1372407 2014-04-10 21:02:00 Yellow I find OK.

Finda - no real experience.

Gopher -- :devil :angry :angry Personal experience- They tell you any BS to get you on board and then dont deliver what you pay for, their staff are useless to talk to, they dont even talk to one another or have their data bases linked so if something is changed you then get some other idiot calling you up about the same thing that you have just gotten sorted.
They pester the hell out of you with upgrade offers and doesn't matter if you say no or not they still keep coming back. I had to email them several times telling them I didn't want anything more to do with them and please stop all advertising,( contract had already expired) they completely ingore you - and in the end I had to threaten legal action if they did't stop.

The last time they tried I said " Have a read of the file you have there" -- So he did, what does it say ? He replied, do not contact , contract ended -- So I said why are you calling -- Then he goes into his sales pitch - I butted in and said read the piece about legal action -- OH sorry and hung up.

BTW I know of MANY people who run a small business and they all had the same experiences.

Rant over ;)

1372409 2014-04-11 03:12:00 Nup dont use any of them. If I know the name I'm after I'll just look in Google Speedy Gonzales (78)

I just use Google. Finda and Yellow in my experience both give incomplete and therefore missleading results. Never used Gopher.

1372411 2014-04-11 13:36:00 Finda and Yellow both give the impression of being a complete waste of time, Gopher is an incomplete waste of time.
DuckDuckGo and Google work just fine.

1372412 2014-04-11 19:50:00 I actually like Finda for the reviews on it. Not all have them, but it's a feature I like.
Thanks for the opinions.......
