I signed up with Datashpere after recieving a telephone call from Tyler, explaining that I could have an ad placed on my local news stations (KHOU) homepage.

Tyler stated that the ad was only going to run month to month, at $150 per month. I was told i had 30 days to cancel, from when the ad was "up and running".

Everything he told me was false!! The ad was not on the KHOU homepage, but was actually on the "neighborhood" homepage, and KHOU has roughly 50 "neighborhoods". So needless to say, I received no additional bussines from this ad.

Secondly, the ad was actually not month to month, but rather I was signed up for a 12 month period, and would have to pay $150.00 x 12 to be released from the contract because 30days had expired, even though it had not been 30days since the ad was up and running.

Furthermore, the "services" they provide are complete bullshit. For instance, an online profile was created by datashpere for me, and it was filled with typos and misspelled words. After bringing this to the attention of datasphere, i was told the I have the tools to change the profile info myself. In short, these people are crooks.

They will lie and steal, and then tell you its ok, because its in the contract. The worst part is they sought me out, I didnt really need their services, but gave it a try....no good deed goes unpunished.

If you are looking to advertise anything ever, do not choose Datashpere to assist you.
