            yellowpagecity.com (YPC Media) is serving a business listing for a business named ****** **********: h**********************************************************************/ ****** ********** has been closed for 5+ years. The phone number on this listing ###-###-#### is my personal cell phone number and I am regularly receiving B2B oriented phone calls for this defunct business and I need it to stop. yellowpagecity.com has the listing in 7 different business categories and they require that each be removed individually. I have submitted online requests on yellowpagecity.com asking them very nicely to remove these listings every day for a week and they have not done so. The confirmation webpage that I get after I submit each removal request states "Please Note: No changes will be made to your listing information until the 9.95 verfication fee has been paid." (BTW they spelled verification incorrectly). It is highly unfair that I am required to pay them nearly $70 to have these listings removed because I never gave them permission to post my personal phone number on these listings and I find they are violating my privacy rights by positing these listings and not removing them promptly when asked. I am requesting that yellowpagecity.com (YPC Media) remove all 7 ****** ********** listings ASAP. Also, how does paying $9.95 per listing verify that I am the owner of the listings in the first place? Money grab!?! If you need to verify that I am the owner of ###-###-#### please call or text me at this number and I will confirm that I need these listings removed. I have tried to call them at ###-###-#### "to get further assistance" and it identifies that I have indeed called YPC Media then immediately transfers me to a voicemail box where I leave my contact info and they have not called me back let alone provided me any further assistance. Please help!

            I would honestly give less stars if possible. No don’t use this company. They will sell you on thousands of dollars in services. Make you sign a contract then you’ll never hear from them. I’ve attempted contacted my ‘account manager’ at least a dozen times and I’ve still yet to hear from him since I day I signed a contract for over $4,000. Never again. DO NOT USE THEM.
