Yellow Pages Group Reviews 

A few months ago, Yellow Pages contacted us and convinced us to sign a one-year agreement, claiming it would boost our overall business ranking and generate more leads. Unfortunately, they delivered almost nothing of value.

The worst part? Their customer service flat-out refuses to cancel the subscription. After realizing how ineffective the service was, I looked up other reviews—turns out we’re not alone. They have an abysmal reputation (almost a one-star rating), but by then, it was too late. We were stuck paying for the full year.

Be extremely cautious: they’ll auto-renew your contract, and you can’t even cancel the renewal until the last month—clearly hoping you’ll forget and get locked in for another year.

Don’t fall into their trap. Avoid Yellow Pages at all costs. Total waste of time and money.

The customer service sucks. I signed 2 days ago and it was like im forced to work with them, i told them they suck.No help whatsoever they only argue don’t want to hesr you out. Trash customer service.

Yellowpages service is non-existent and dismal. YP uses auto-renewal system, do not agree to this service ever. I recently cancelled my service January 2025 and was advised I am "under contract" to December 2025 (I verbally agreed to an auto renewal in June 2022, thinking it was close to year end, didn't understand it was a "forever" auto renewal). They were to send me physical copy of my contract, this paper/email version was never received for further review (mistake on my part for not following up but business was busy.) Auto renewal could be acceptable if someone from YP ever reached out to discuss my file. I contacted them in 2022 to discuss pricing, they did not call me. And since 2022, no one at YP has reached out to me, their client. Auto renewal = no service. In my business, no client contact means no client, gone. Bottom line, YP is a dying model in the new world, AVOID Yellowpages at all costs. They were happy to take my money and never service my account. Quite a business model.

My wife clicked on a Yellow Pages ad offering a free ad for new businesses. They called her and pressured her for almost an hour to pay for their "services", citing that they would reduce the price for her in order to give her great savings. She said she wasn't interested, but they kept lowering the price and begging until she finally gave up and accepted to "try them out". That apparently gave them the right to lock her into a 1 year term. They refused to cancel, she refused to pay, then they threatened to send her to collections. They also didn't fulfill their end of the service agreement by giving her access to her "dashboard" for several months, allowing her control over her service. This "dashboard" is also responsible for allowing for service auto-renewal to be turned off. Yellow Pages is clearly a scam company now and should be avoided at all costs.

Yellow pages has been an issue for number of years! We cancelled years ago and they deny it and keep sending us invoices even after cancelleation and it's been years since we shut the business down and still sending invoices for service we never used and cancelled.
Yellow pages has been an issue since the 90s we stayed away from but the sales person was nice and then very pushy.
They drained our bank accounts.
Horrible company! Business was shut down in 2022 and they keep sending invoice. Stay away

This Company and its sales team are a bunch of liars and scammers. I will be taking them to court over a contract I never signed. Just look at there rating at BBB or any reviews other than the ones on there website. If you hear the name Sonny or Adrain in the Vancouver/B.C area hang up

## Beware of Yellow Pages' Deceptive Practices!
I made the mistake of trusting Yellow Pages with my business listing, and it was a nightmare. They promised the world but delivered nothing. My Google rankings plummeted after partnering with them.

## Broken Promises and Aggressive Billing
Despite their failure to deliver, they continued to charge me and threatened to send me to collections. The constant calls were harassing. It's clear they prioritize profits over customer satisfaction.

## Sneaky Auto-Renewal Policy
Yellow Pages auto-renews contracts 45 days prior to expiry, and if you miss this window, you're locked into another year of overpriced services. When I tried to cancel, they made it incredibly difficult.

## Mafia-Like Business Tactics
Their business practices are predatory and deceptive. I urge others to avoid Yellow Pages at all costs. If you're considering their services, think twice. Protect your business from their exploitative tactics.

We are in Australia. I was called by an extremely courteous and helpful gentleman from Yellow Pages named JAMES.
He guided me thrugh the issues I have with changing our complimentary yellow pages entry to update our business address for Sydney Business Web. This is critical for us with Google - they require full consistency across all platforms.
I have not dealt with Yellow Pages for years and held a poor opinion - but they are clearly improving by a huge amount. THANK YOU JAMES.

I strongly advise everyone to stay away from Yellow Pages unless you want to deal with a company that lies, manipulates, and traps customers into unfair contracts.

When we signed up, a salesperson assured us that if our business shut down, Yellow Pages would discontinue services and stop charging us. However, when we needed them to honor this commitment, they blatantly denied it. We provided proof that our business had closed and requested to stop charges from as per their previous confirmation, but instead of respecting this, they launched an “investigation” only to come back and claim they found no evidence of the sales person's statements.

Their contracts are highly deceptive – requiring 45 days' notice to cancel, or else they automatically renew into a 12-month contract! Who does this in Canada? This is nothing short of a scam to trap customers. I’ve never encountered such terrible service, unresponsive customer support, and outright dishonesty.

Despite multiple emails and clear proof of our business closure, we’ve been met with lies, delays, and refusal to re-investigate our case properly. Every representative we dealt with seemed inexperienced, evasive, and more focused on covering up their mistakes than helping customers.

We even offered to pay for the period we used, but they refuse to stop billing us beyond that—even when there’s no business to advertise! This is nothing but a money-grabbing scheme.

If you’re considering advertising with Yellow Pages—DON’T. They will trap you in unfair contracts, refuse to honor verbal commitments, and make it nearly impossible to cancel. Their business model is built on manipulation, not customer service.

Avoid them at all costs!

They come advertising helping your business. Offer a trial service and don't tell you it's a one year "trial". Bill you for not providing ANY VALUE and then come around with telling you your first agent that sold you the marketing plan no longer works with them and assign you a new one who knows comes to sell you a "better" deal to tie you again to another year of providing ZERO VALUE.

Avoid this company. There are better ways to waste money than use YELLOW PAGES.

They think it's marketing but this is clearly a well run scam in broad daylight

They also "record calls" . Ask for your call logs and it takes them a day or a week as they say where they edit your call logs to fit their narrative .

Visit their google page or search on goggle maps for Yellow pages Canada and drop the real reviews to save others

Had to write something because the interaction I just had was hilarious. Someone called to try to see me something, I said « I am not interested » they responded « why not? » I said « I think yellow pages isn’t so relevant for our customers, so I don’t need them » he responded aggressively « we don’t need you either » How does this person have a job? And how is this even a thing?

Zero stars if I could.

Awful Customer Service and attitude.
Scam, super ignorant and rude.

Lied on the phone to sign the contract stating could cancel with written notice and provided this when they dont provide any benefits.

When I call they are super rude and basically ur beat for 1 yr.

Did I mention the employees so called manager is rude and talk to u like garbage.

Save yourself the wasted money and Hassel. Don't do it I do not recommended.

This service is a scam an a nightmare. They never provide what they prommised and is impossible to make them solve the problem, i canceled my account with them and they said that they submit my cancelation but they never did it, instead they have been calling me again and again with a very intimidating tone telling me that there is not them problem that i didn't get the full package the reallity is that everything they promised was a lie.

Yellow Pages is nothing but a scam. They make fraudulent claims, harass businesses, and force you to do one-year oral contract even they did terrible, and you beg them to cancel the service again and again. You're thinking about advertising with them—Please don’t! You will get nothing except tears and bad dreams!!Stay far away!! See what they sent to me: "If payment is not received within 10 days of this notice, your services/advertising with Yellow Pages may be interrupted and your credit score negatively affected."

Remember that. And you guys failed.

They took $500 at the beginning of every month for a 8 month contract. First month results were 10% what was promised. The year before we ran our own campaign and had 10X the search results. YP, talked a big game and promised big results using AI and so on. We were not able to cancel the contract, due to poor results. We have started to run our own Google Campaigns again.

Very disappointed with yellow pages. I have been paying for ads for the last 10 years, not one check in from an account manager. We were reviewing recurring transactions and went to cancel. Apparently they have me locked into a 12 month contract. I have requested a copy of the contract, but they are having trouble locating it.... So shady. Do not do business with them!

Yellow Pages is nothing but a scam. They make fraudulent claims, harass businesses, and don’t even verify their own records. I never signed up with them, yet they won’t stop with the nonsense. If you're thinking about advertising with them—don’t. Stay far away.

I know a lot of businesses and companies across Canada, and I will be sure to spread the word about this corrupt business—100%. Repeat business keeps you in business. Remember that. And you guys failed.
