Only giving 1 star because you can't leave a zero star review. I am a small business owner in Red Bluff, Ca. A Sales Rep came to my shop about 1.5 years ago and sold me on an expensive advertising promotion. I was placed on a monthly payment plan. After about 1 year I received zero feedback from customers regarding the promotion. I replied to messages to the company on two different occasions that I wanted to cancel the remainder of my promotion and no one ever responded and they continued to take an automatic payment from my account. Later, I had a new bank account which was not forwarded to Valley Yellow Pages as I felt I had given them enough notices of cancellation. They proceeded to turn my account over to collections and once I tried to talk with them, they refused to discuss anything with me regarding the account. My advice is DO NOT PURCHASE ANY ADVERTISING FROM THIS COMPANY! read more

DO NOT GIVE THESE PEOPLE YOUR MONEY! I own a small landscape company and about a year ago was looking to expand. One of Valley Yellow Pages sales representatives was interested in becoming a partner in my business and handling the office side of things. He agreed to invest several thousand dollars into my business in exchange for a partnership. Part of his investment was going to be a huge ad in Valley Yellow Pages. I drew up a contract and gave him a copy to review and we began working on the ad. He said he needed more time to look at the contract and rushed me through the ad process, apparently because of due dates for publishing. As soon as I had signed the ad contract he stopped communicating with me regularly. When I sent him an urgent message saying w need to talk right now, it took him three days to respond. Once the ad was published he told me that I had to pay for it with the work it would generate and that he was uncomfortable having his name officially on the business. Aside from unethical aggressive sales tactics, the actual service this company provides is out dated and does not yield the results they promise. With a $2,000 dollar ad the only thing my company generated was constant solicitations from credit card companies. This alone is enough for a terrible review. I have personally heard of several other local businesses that have had negative interactions with this company and are taking legal actions against them. Phone books are a thing of the past and this company is desperately trying to survive in a world that doesn't need its service any longer. read more
