Alex Doyle Associates

Shawn do you agree that libel statements have been made on your forum?

 

How many clients have come forward, have a look please
I think it's about five

 

You are obviously concerned with regards to how many dissastisfied clients were posting, thats why you were checking they weren't the same person but you still can't see the libel, thats ridiculous.

 

Here's an interesting one for you. Had a client that before he signed up was achieving 2 first place rankings. He read the forum spoke to an "seo", I think we know who that was. Whilst our work was in place he was receiving 22 first place rankings within four weeks, since he wiped the work because of the forum and advice of the "seo" his rankings have plumitted again to 2 first place rankings. This forum is not only damaging ourselves but existing clients. You can't argue with facts. Every action has a consequence.

 

Thank you for your co-operation SHawn, that thread wasn't particularly directed at yourself but was directed at everyone in the forum who has done damage to myself and our clients.

 

I dont think your responsible for helping me retain clients, I think the forum's responsible for a certain amount of damage caused to my clients and my companies reputation. As the CEO you own the forum, so the forum's your responsibility surely.

 

I am currently an active client of Alex Doyle Associates and I have to say I am amazed by what I have read by a handful of individuals trying to dent and tarnish the reputation of a company who has provided my company with an excellent service so far.

If you are so called dissatisfied clients of Alex Doyle Associates I would not be remotely interested as an individual of purchasing any goods or services you would look to offer after reading this forum.

The professionalism of the individuals posting messages on this forum is shocking.

I regularly have my telephone calls returned and I am receiving a lot of help regarding the building and content of a new website which is currently under construction.

I have read back over the early pages of this forum and I can guarantee Alex Doyle Associates do exist as I will not do sales calls over the telephone only face to face. They quite happily came to my offices where we have been through the service they provide. I was only yesterday at there offices and spent the majority of day with the Managing Director ( who correctly is not Andrew Morris but has always been known as the Sales Director to my company and was introduced as that position ) and did so last week. Why would a bogus company want to spend so much time getting to know an individual whom they are trying to con I ask myself!!!!.

I suggest people who don’t have dealings with a specific company mainly Digital Point keep comments to themselves and get on with their own business.

We all know success of a company or individuals makes others jealous and become determined to try and take that success away why else are these forums set up. A lot of what I have read doesn’t make sense and by the content of your messages I expect you are very successful people!.

 

Just out of interest, nothing more, whats your website address?

I have a friend who runs a loan company and he may want to reciprocate links with you

Darren

 

It would be very interesting to see where swiftloans is in all this

Shaun - have you traced his/ her IP ?

 

A quick search on google for Swift loans brings up
http://www.swift-personal-loans.co.uk/

Can the person from swify loans give tell me which search terms Alex Doyle has 'optimised' for them?

 

The site is 'under construction' I think. Well I hope so

 

After all the public fighting and not-being-so-nice to eachother I PMed Alex Media and got their numbers to speak in private. I didn't like how this was going nowhere and I certainly didn't like the threats being thrown at me and others.

So I did ring Andrew to listen to his story, and what he wanted to see happen to close this case bacause it is a waste of time for many of us (apart from those few who are legitemately trying to get money back for valid reasons).

We spoke for about 15 minutes and I'm pleased we did. Apparently others got in touch too, I hope the remaining people who say they have problems will do so too because they do seem open for suggestions/feedback/negotiation.

I still stand by my opinion that one should not and can not guarantee 27 #1 spots for 12 months. Not only is this opinion based on a fair understanding of how Search Engine's work, Google warns here: No one can guarantee a #1 ranking on Google.

But I guess if someone do decide to guarantee just that and they have adequate guarantees in place and do keep their promise of refunds; then it is fine by me for companies to promise that. Maybe a 'mission virtually impossible IMHO' would be nicer to say than 'bogus claims'.

Andrew told me they have refunded clients where appropriate and I think it is more than fair (I have done it in retail too) to reject refunds if the company has tried everything to please the customer according to the T's & C's but they are not willing to cooperate. Fair play both ways (Buyers are Liars, Sellers are Too is the old and very true sales saying).

As we spoke we agreed that we both based our opinions on only part of the story. Andrew only read what I said here without knowing me, I only knew things from when they called, what I saw on their site and what I heard here from others without really knowing the company and their track record. It was good to talk.

Further from here...

I will cease my interest in this thread because I am not a client of theirs and won't be either (I'll do the dirty work myself). I would be interested in knowing how the others who claim things come out of this but I do believe they can solve things in a fair way by ringing Andrew at Alex Doyle Associates. PM Alex Media for a number.

My message for people who find this thread when looking for info on this company:

Yes it is strange Alex Doyle didn't show up #1 on the Search Engine you used. Wouldn't it be a nice example when they hold 27 #1 positions themselves? But they are apparently busy with their own site. So you found this forum and quite possibly another one about this company. All I can say is this... We here know one side of the story and have given our opinions. Read them as opinions not as facts (basically counts for everything you read on the internet). Verify things yourself by ringing Alex Doyle, ask for examples, perhaps get their info from the Companies House etc. etc. Also do understand beforehand what is involved in SEOing a website so you won't see any surprises. This forum is a good source, there are more online. Read the link above pointing to Google's guidelines. Read and understand Alex Doyle Associates contract and T's and C's and I am convinced you shouldn't be worried. Perhaps also ring a few competitors. Andrew is not a bad guy, Alex Doyle Associates isn't a bad company. The economics rule of supply and demand in an open market wouldn't allow for bad companies being in existance (the only real bad ones are gouvernment funded).

My advice for Alex Doyle Associates... Get a website up and running so customers can get to you. It saves on the cold calling, gives people a place to calmly read all about what you do etc. etc. Get it #1 and people won't find this thread as easily. It could also display your telephone number in case people need to get in touch. I'm sure you are working on this.

So I have said my initial opinions. Now I know more I say what I think again and don't hesitate to do so. Innocent until proven guilty is a gift, those who have still got issues, come forward and have them sorted out.

Enough is said, enough time wasted, enough DP hard disk space and bandwidth wasted...

At the end of the converstaion with Andrew I volunteered to write this post with the intention to encourage those new to this company to not base their decisions just on what is being said here. So there ya go. Read everybody's opinions, make up your own mind.

I rest my case.

Now I need a cup of tea!
