Very disappointing experience with…
Very disappointing experience with Yell.
We paid approximately £2,376 over a 12-month period for advertising services and unfortunately saw no measurable return whatsoever. Throughout the agreement I raised concerns regarding performance and also attempted to cancel the service on multiple occasions.
The most frustrating part was the conflicting information provided by their representatives. I followed the cancellation guidance given to me by a member of their team in good faith, only to later be told different terms applied and that further payments were still due.
To be fair, Kerry from the customer care team did try to assist towards the end and was professional in her responses. However, by that stage the issue had already escalated due to the incorrect guidance provided earlier in the process, which could have been avoided had we been directed properly from the outset.
Despite the account being formally disputed in writing, I then received threats of referral to debt collection.
I appreciate that advertising results can never be guaranteed, however clear communication and fair handling of customer concerns should be expected as a minimum.
Based on my experience, I would strongly advise other businesses to fully understand the cancellation terms in writing before proceeding.

Good experience.
Our experience with Yell has not always been positive over the 25+ years we've advertised with them but the call we had with Pam was first class, she was friendly, helpful, not at all pushy, very knowledgable and went above and beyond with follow up emails. Pam helped create a comprehensive listing for our business. An enjoyable and informative experience which has changed our perception of dealing with Yell.

Terrible
Terrible, take your money and for first month great then ghost you. Have been trying for over a month to get a phone conversation with my account manager, can’t even speak to a person just some chat bot. Would avoid using YELL like the plague in future. I’m stuck in a contract that I can’t get out of. But don’t make the same mistake I did. Was promised weekly correspondence best I got was two 3min videos. Really cannot get across how badly treated I feel and how much I was lied to at sign up. Check their online reviews if you don’t believe me.
