“If you're considering using Add People, **PLEASE DON’T** They seem more interested in scamming hardworking individuals out of their money than providing any real value or support. Save yourself the trouble and look elsewhere. I had a deeply disappointing experience with Add People that I feel compelled to share. Initially, the sales representative was charming and convincing, painting a picture of success that ultimately turned out to be a mirage. After signing the contract, I was shuffled off to another team that put on a show of working hard for me, but this facade lasted only about two weeks. From then on, I was left to navigate a frustrating experience on my own, pouring almost £1,000 a month into Google Ads plus their fees without seeing a single return. When I expressed my concerns about the lack of results, they merely offered vague alternatives that also failed to generate any sales. Their claim of working with Amazon and being the biggest in the UK felt like a desperate tactic to reel in clients, as they showed no regard for the financial losses I was incurring. After eight months of ineffective service, I attempted to terminate my contract, only to be met with threats of debt collectors. I now find myself in a bind, financially strapped because of their services, which have proven to be utterly useless.”

“They had two chances to prove themselves during trials and cost my business thousands in lost revenue. They blamed outside issues which lowered my sales significantly. Not true. My son took over the business and unfortunately without asking me signed up for a 12 month contract. Within weeks sales had significantly dropped to the point the business is likely to fail. The 6 month break clause in the contract can come soon enough as only two months in and notice of termination has been served on them. Black Friday has also been poor especially for a company that is supposed to boost sales. My advice to anyone thinking of using them, don't. They are likely to destroy your business based on my experience and witnessing their results on two businesses close to me.”

“Don't bother with a bad review. Just report them for policy violations. I still think that they think that actions don't have consequences. They are sorely mistaken and it is this kind of company that Google is coming down on hard and removing them. I have also complained to company house for money that they took without permission and 3 other breaches. It is not the wild west anymore and bad business practice is not tolerated. Report, report, report. Honestly, if it was sketch the company would be a bag with swag written on it being carried by a man in a strippy top. This kind of behaviour is not acceptable anymore.”

“I wish I would have read some of these reviews before I signed my contract. This is the worst experience I have ever had with a PPC firm. The sales person I dealt with promised me certain things. OF COURSE when I brought this up to their upper management it turns out the sales person called me on a personal line and it was not recorded. To say my Google Ads are performing poorly would be an understatement. My ROAS has dropped in half since they took over my campaigns. I've had to prod them along the way to even LOOK at my campaigns. They did NOT care that my campaigns were performing poorly. During monthly calls they would manipulate the data and only capture a point in time were there was a slight increase in performance. Stay FAR FAR away, they try to sell themselves as a company that is there for the small business, they are not. They are there just to collect an outrageous monthly fee. They are also hustling to transition all clients over to ACH so seems to me they are having cash flow problems.”

“I am extremely disappointed with Add People. I have already paid them nearly £1000 for absolutely nothing. Their contract does not mention anything about consumer protection, and they have failed to fulfill any of their obligations, offering only empty words and worthless reports. Now, they are harassing me with emails and letters, claiming I owe them more money. I am completely confused and stressed by their unprofessional behavior. I would not recommend this company to anyone. If anyone else is in the same situation as me, please contact me privately so we can file a collective complaint against this company. As consumers, we have every legal right to demand justice. I will be filing a case with the Small Claims Court to recover my money and to free myself from these scammers. Their behavior has been unacceptable, and they should not be allowed to continue exploiting others.”

“Disgusting practises completely, just want to get you sign a contract to ensure a income not even bothered what there offering, the sales team will do anything to make you sign even if you say let me go think about it, just a scam company that put more pressure on small businesses. This after I told them I have 4 kids. They can keep setup fee but not paying 6 months of glorified google ads which you also have to pay for! It’s a load of rubbish. I wish I looked at lowest reviews first as it seem plenty of others had the same issue. They have well scripted and written plan in place to try secure that money. Keep the set up fee but not even had to anything yet want months of payments for what! Nothing you set of immoral disgusting thief’s!!!!!!!!! Oh and I’m autistic so when said let me go and think about it let me rather bigger me up!”

“Their comments to bad reviews are lame and good reviews are mostly fake. I have had a bad experience that yielded no results and now all they can say is that they have done nothing wrong according to the contract that they wrote! the more research I do the more I find that they are a poor company that lies and pushes for more business but provides it very badly. £4k spent in 4 months, 2 leads generated that were irrelevant.”

“What an absolute waste of money and time. I have a small independent bathroom showroom. We provide design, supply and installation. I was contacted by email and decided to overlook my usual scepticism with this type of service. I have been with them now for four months. I am spending £200+VAT pcm on Addpeople plus the recommended budget for Google itself which is £15/day. So far there has been two phone calls. One was a lady looking for a replacement toilet seat - not exactly the target customer. The other I missed. I was reprimanded for missing the call by a junior account manager. Even once I accepted that I should not miss 50% of my conversions, she continued to remind me that I "must answer the phone". They will tell you that it takes a couple of months for the methodology to settle in and show results. They will also point to many statistics that are flattering to their service - clicks per word, impressions per keyword etc etc. As we are all aware in business and especially in small businesses, there is only one metric that is relevant. Any other metric is merely a stepping stone to this one - Return on Investment. So far my ROI with Addpeople is 0%. This is the usual online chicanery dressed up as some arcane technical methods. Total rubbish. If you want to merely have a presence show up then great, if you want leads, customers and ROI, spend your money elsewhere. For comparison, I spent £40/week for three weeks on FB adverts and have had 10 solid leads walk through the doors of the showroom as a result of them.”
