Sorry I haven't been posting. Right about the time that I last posted I signed up for StomperNet's $1 Trial Offer. I mean, talk about a no-brainer, any peak at the inside of StomperNet was definitely worth what the vending machine charges me for a can of soda. I was skeptical that they'd quite live up to the expectations of their sales letters, but here was a chance for me to find out and they must have something good in store, or why else make the almost-free offer?
Some people said Stomper's idea was gather the credit card info (needed for $1 payment) and then at the end of the 30 day trial offer, put a $800 charge on that credit card before people realized they had to cancel their membership. No problem from my end, I was pretty sure the $800 would have been declined on my card. Once in a while, being broke pays off.
So then the instructions followed and I was just too busy trying to squeeze the work in to post here. I've learned a lot, but then suddenly (about a week ago) we were at the end of the 30 days. Some trial members complained -- there had only been about 20 daily activities posted in the 30 day trial. Others complained that they were promised at the end of 30 days if they had carried out the instructions they would have a fully operational business and that wasn't the case. Frankly, I thought they had a point, but didn't really see there was anything to be gained by posting along those lines in the forum, considering that we'd been hearing Stompernet was going to let the trial members continue with the Simple process (trial members can only see a portion of the Stompernet information) for a price well below the $800. I was very interested in that option, as I could see the potential of continuing what I had started, but didn't have $800 a month to invest and frankly I don't have the time to sort through, let alone absorb, even half of the info out on Stompernet. So..... I read all the forums and watched for the new offer and.....
$97 a month for trial members converting to permanent Simple members. I am IN!!! Course in the last week my day job and other activities that I am firmly committed to have kept me from getting busy again. But, my overall assessment is the Stomper trial offer for $1 -- VERY Legit offer and at the risk of using very over-used words, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?
Sorry for not posting more. I'll try to stop back again at least on a weekly basis and let you know what I'm up to and if I'm rich or famous yet. I've been tempted by the 5-bucks-a-day guy and emails about $1K-a-day, but I'm spread a little too thin already and need to focus on what I've already begun. If you're not as overswamped as I am, then check his stuff out.
Talk to ya later!
Thanks for checking out my post on StomperNet. I responded with my insights. I have to say you give a good rundown on the membership. I didn't sign up for the program but I did see some value.

Yes .. this $1 trial turned out to be a way of just sucking in people who don't cancel the membership.
I signed up for the $1 trial out of curiosity amidst all the hype. I was not overly impressed and went back to all the other things I was doing and just forgot about it.
Nothing in the signup confirmation stated that the membership would be ongoing or that I needed to cancel it if I did not want to commit to a full membership fee.
Lo and behold, my credit card was then charged with a $797 fee and, despite numerous emails to the stompernet general help email address and automated replies from their system I have not been able to contact anyone at Stompernet to refund this fee.
Seems you can make a lot of money ripping people off.

Listen Folks..
I would be willing to jump and down shout from the rooftops how great StomperNet is .. but I never got the chance.
I recently took advantage of the new StomperNet2.0 + Brainless Business Transplant for $150.
I purchased on 9/7 and still have not recieved the product.
I have recieved an overdose of email “congratulating” me on my purchase.
So .. I set off an interesting expedition .. solely to find out what happened to my order ( innocently enough, I presume ? )
So I write .. oh .. 4-5 emails to :
[email protected] >> I received exact duplicate responses from Colby,Natalie et al telling me quote “I have confirmed that your order has been placed successfully and is currently being processed” That’s great .. but the same exact duplicate message 5x ? Come on !!
Then I write to another customer service email listing ( yes, another one ! ) a meager attempt to get a response from the dark side of the moon.
[email protected] >> No, none,zero, nada response.
Ok .. now it’s time to call! this is where is gets really interesting ..
So, I managed to find a number listed at
https://member.stompernet.net/salesflow/contact-us.html
the number is 1-404-348-4401 ( huh ? No even a toll free number ? )
Well, I get the GREATEST customer service message ever recorded.
“there is no one able to answer you call. GoodBye!”
Next is a quest similar to trying to find the Holy Grail …. a legitimate telephone number ..
So I start the exercise and “voila” i find one … buried as deep as whale crap at :
https://www.stompernet.com/Default.aspx?tabid=190&ctl=Terms
this is inside the Terms and conditions.
The number is 1-888-325-7845
and .. I get a LIVE person named Judy who is quite sweet but tells me she cannot help me . I need to contact another customer service person , which, she diligently transfers me .. well, I should have known at this point I am now adrift in the nether world of no contact. This ranks up there with sensory depravation torture!
Ok , I am starting to think .. wow, did I get scammed ?
So, I look at the blogs and discover there are significant volume of negative pub on StomperNet ..
Oh God, was I a fool ?
Then, I think well … if it is a scam then what does the Better Business Bureau have to say ..
Well, should have known .. StomperNet has an Unsatisfactory Rating.
Well, I issued a chargeback on my business VISA card today , which incidentally VISA’s policy is to cancel the card and re-issue ( which means know I have to update all my business accounts ! )
So.. I do not know if StomperNet is a scam but …
if it look slike a duck
sounds like a duck
dont get f—
You get my point !!!
Yes, I am sure there will be countless fans of StomperNet claiming I an off-sides or so .. but I have published the contact list and phone numbers .. Try it your self and see..
if StomperNet is a truely reputable, customer service advocate then why close the doors on it’s customers.

I too brought 4 products from stompernet
Rang their phone number after emailing them countless times and was hung up on when I pressed 5 for their advocacy department
Have put in a complaint for non delivery into the BBB and will start a chargeback I got
an email from Bill Crowthers saying I'd be refunded then 6 days later another one saying I had to send the product back to get my refund Pretty hard when it never arrived.

Hi Guys Almost Christmas 2008 and I signed up for stomping the search engines way back in september.. Guess what it cost me £150 pounds so far and I have not received anything. Not even a response to my many complaints. I paid by visa so hopefully I will have the last laugh on claiming my cash back from this bunch of sharks..

Hope you all got refunds, but be glad they weren't abel to suck you into some of their membership things. You're not missing out on anything anyway. They just get everybody all excitedm, get your credit cards for recurring billing and then they move right onto their next product launch...no support or interest in the previous one.
