  I hired Agent Image in December 2021 to build a website and to integrate SEO into the website. I spoke with the sales person *********************. I paid $15,387.00 in advance to this company and was promised a completion date of no later than April 2022! It is now February 13th, 2023 and I still do not have a completed website and no SEO. After complaining for several months by email kept being promised a completed result with excuses of covid, this companies employees quitting their job and short man power! All of which I have emails proving this. So many emails that they do not all fit below! I am not not receiving any emails or phone calls from Agent Image or The Design People in regards to my problem. There is no resolution and they have provided NO product completion!! This is a huge scam! You are dealing with *************** not ***. The initial sales pitch from ******* was not what I received. There is no customer service. The company is non responsive. BUYERS BEWARE! LOOK AT THE **** REVIEWS! *********************************************************************************************************

  In May of 2022 we entered into an agreement with this company to build a website for our real estate brokerage. We were very specific about the features we were looking for and that we would not move forward without confirmation from their development team. The salesperson told us, in writing, that the features were very easy to add and so we moved forward. When they finally completed the website for us, we did not get the main features we were looking for. They tried to tell us that wasn't part of what they offer, so we sent them all the emails and texts with their salesperson. They then told us they could do it, but that it would be $4,000 extra per month. We have since demanded a refund and keep getting a runaround and now they have stopped communicating with us. Do not use this company. You will be scammed.

  They have not done what they said they would. I would have never paid for their service if I would have known they would not deliver on their service.

  In June I contract with Agent image to build a website. The sales person was in the US. Once I paid the $2500 deposit I found out our primary contact would be in the Phillipines. On our very first call she had internet connection issues and we were not able to communicate very well. It was also apparent that English was not her primary language. We continued but she just didn't understand that we wanted a custom luxury website which is what we paid for. We requested many edits. Most were not made and they even had pictures of rhe wrong city! I also paid to have my neighborhood's written but and was told it wasn't covered. I went back and had to show them that indeed I paid for that. When they sent the write ups the very first sentence had an ridiculous mistake and the rest of it was written very poorly. We requested they rewrite. Also i was told ai would have to pay an additional $500 per month to have the search function. This was not explained in our initial conversation. We decided against the search option. About 7 times we had to go back and tell them we were not doing the search. At this time I requested a new account manager and upgraded designer, Native Engliah speaking and with luxury experience. It's been 3 months now. They sent me to a new guy, also from the Phillipines. I requested a full refund. They said no, this was 3 weeks ago and I decided I would continue with them instead of starting over since they have all my notes. We have called, left messages, sent many emails and for almost 2 weeks we got no response. They have purposely drawn this out so long that I can no longer dispute with my credit card company. At this point I do not trust them and just want a full refund so I can start all over. Thanks.

  We have reached out to our client and her representatives. As work has been started, presented and revisions have been made, a refund is no longer applicable.

  The website is still pending and until now it is not yet completed. 1/23/2023 I made a follow up with write *** that would be needed on the website. I wanted to review it first before my Zoom meeting with the Agent Image on 1/31/2023. I received a response same day 1/23/2023 that the write-*** are in progress and will try her best to complete it that week. 1/26/2023, my assistants made another follow up about the progress of the write ***. 1/27/2023, received a response from ********, saying " I apologize for the late reply.  I was trying to have them ready by today.  Today has been pretty busy. I will email them over the weekend so that you can review them before my call with ******** on Tuesday. Please let me know if you have any questions". 1/30/2023, my assistant made another follow up with the write ***. I did not receive anything over the weekend for me to review. 1/30/2023 her response was " I apologize for the delay, but I will get you the write *** today.  I thought I was going to have time this weekend to finish things up and I didn't.  I was supposed to be off today (for my Birthday) and ended up working all day - I will get them over to you today". She promised that write *** weeks ago and then there's another delay. It seems she/ they don't feel the urgency of the situation knowing that my website is still on progress now and incomplete for almost 8 months now. ********, the agent who supposedly taking care of the website sent me an email 1/30/2023 saying " I understand your frustration.  I'm trying to do the write-*** myself (which is out of my purview), and I have limited time since I primarily work with website development.  I had the write-*** on my plate essentially for the last couple of weeks, and I've been trying to work them into my schedule.  I will send them over tonight. Hopefully, I will do a good job. I'm working to finish them now ". 1/31/2023 she sent the draft of the write up 8:57 AM and I do not have any time to review it prior to my meeting with her. I have been dealing with these people for almost 8 months now and nothing is happening. I want a refund to this project.

  We are unable to accede to the request for a refund based on terms of service which the client digitally signed off on. Moreover, work has been carried out and two concessions have been given.

  "No refund shall be given to the Client for cancellation for convenience, which is made three (3) days after payment. Notwithstanding this, the Client may treat all advanced and processed payments to TDP as credits for future services and projects. TDP shall furnish the Client with its latest billing details upon cancellation to
  reflect the remaining balance usable by the Client for future services."
  

  We respectfully request that the client continue the work as we are at the cusp of finalizing the free community content we are providing at no charge. The content that the client raised concerns about were given at no charge, as goodwill. We likewise have also discounted the client's site by $500.00.

  I am rejecting this response because: 

  Let's take the $500 and have a professional writer work on the communities, if community write *** were not included in their services then their sales team should not have promised them to me. Please get a new invoice reflecting the $500 discount and find out what the other two concessions were and have then noted on the invoice as well and we can proceed.
