Just a thoughts!
From a Search Marketing perspective, Allied network has engaged the services of an SEO firm who is handling "reputation management" or damage control. Type Allied Network in any search engine and up comes pages of URL's with the keywords Allied Network (e.g. http://www.thealliednetwork.org/ ) The URL's serve as a landing page which is than linked back to their main site. In doing this they push any complaints to the 2nd, 3rd, 4th pages of the search engines. Most consumers never make it off the first page!
Also suspect they've engaged in posting ads on Kijjiji and Craigslist, feel good stories about how what a wonderful experience clients have had...
Click on http://www.google.ca/search?hl=en&q=allied+network&start=10&sa=N where you will find a craigslist ad which has been flagged. Even Craigslist is questioning the authenticity of the ads....
Best of luck folks...
