On SmartCustomer, businesses may not offer incentives or pay to remove reviews. Learn more about our Review Guidelines.
The company has garnered mixed feedback, showcasing strengths in its effective platform for enhancing online presence and generating positive customer reviews. Many users praise the support from account managers, noting their helpfulness and commitment to client success. However, significant concerns arise regarding customer service, particularly issues with contract terms and billing practices, leading to feelings of frustration and distrust among some clients. While many small business owners report tangible benefits from using the service, the negative sentiments about support and transparency indicate a need for improvements in customer communication and service reliability.

We monitor reviews for authenticity
We were excited at first when our representative told us that we could cancel our contract if we were not happy. We could also upgrade it, with our proven sucess. Almost two months in after receiving a lot of negative feedback from our customers we called to cancel and was told we were under contract and could not. They offered to cut the cost to 50% - which to me is as good as overcharging us 50%. We declined, not willing to further aggravate hard earned customers. We cancelled our credit card. They called to inform me that they had auto recovered the credit card when we cancelled it, and that they would be emailing our payment options.
Seems like they were happy to fight much more than simply take the loss of one customer - and no review, versus an upset and frustrated former customer that will be sure no one else goes through what we did, if we can help us.
They don't even practice what they preach. You can't leave them a google review or facebook review. I can't find a yelp account.
Stay far, far away. You can do the same thing for yourself.
I wanted to quickly touch base with either one of you since we hadn't come to a resolution with how to proceed. As a refresher, we sent the sales calls over to our Quality Assurance team and did not find any infractions during the sales process. The question to cancel was addressed clearly, as was the option to pro-rate within the first 60 days and the length of the commitment when signing up.
Even today, they called and said that they would be emailing options for us. This is a copy of the email. I suppose their idea of options is their way.
Her email said: I had presented the option to (name withdrawn) a while back to take the same cancellation fee ($1,396) it would take to void the contract immediately and spread it out of the length of your commitment for customer service purposes. It's a better outcome for your business if we can actually help you out for the year instead of just paying to void the contract.
We can customize the platform to your liking, but you guys did see incredible results in the first few months with 66 reviews posted to your online pages with the standard settings in place. If you would like another Account Manager, I'd be happy to move you over to someone else on my team to assist you, but I do want to make sure we're getting this squared away in a timely manner.
I look forward to hearing back!

In the meantime, the best number to reach us during our business hours of Monday through Friday, 9am to 6pm EST is (855) 606-4900 -- our support team would be happy to help you out!
Answer: A contract is reuired, you must pay up front, and they will not allow you to cancel. Stay away!
Answer: Signpost takes a lot of work to reap any benefits; it's not as easy as the pushy sales staff would have you believe. The real problem occurs when you try to leave. They require payment up front (in our case one year), and will not refund anything when you cancel. This is a very shady company, and I would recommend staying away!
Answer: Dave W's [Signpost Rep] above, is a classic example of the problem with Signpost; you can't just cancel the service. They bill you in advance, will not refund what they have billed (even if you quit using the service), and make it very difficult to cancel. You can't just click a button, or send an email, you have to endure a long sales pitch by a tricky, and very aggressive, sales associatte. Best to just stay away! QUOTED FROM DAVE'S RESPONSE: Dave W. [Signpost Rep] On 7/7/17 Hi Albert, Thanks for submitting! You can contact either your sales representative or our support team directly. Our support team can be reached at [email protected] or 855-606-4900. They will connect you with your Account Manager, who will offboard your account with you.
Answer: Good luck John. You will have to endure a long sales pitch from a very pushy sales associate. In our case (sounds like others had similar situations), we had to cancel 30 days before the contract automatically renewed. I contacted Signpost the day after their $2,000 charge appeared on my credit card, and they refused to budge. Nothing... Best to stay away from Signpost!
Answer: Dave W, it sounds like you a have a really terrible job, trying to justify the way Signpost treats clients. In my case, I'm out $2,000 with no recourse, for a one year contract that I don't want. Shame on you!
