I got scammed!!

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

His leads are complete trash. Wrong numbers, called 50 of his leads and only had one person answer or return my call.

She said she was not looking for a financial advisor and didnt know what I was talking about. Avoid this guy!!

Complete Scam, Chris is an excellent phone salesman but complete liar. I read these reviews and went ahead any way so its 100% my fault for not listening to the reviews. If you chose to do business with Bevello after reading these reviews its on you

Disrespectful representative

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

Chis just call my office in regards to an old Financial Advisor that used to be in this office. When I told him he is no longer in the office he asked for a number.

I explained I didnt have it and after asking if he still worked for the company and I told him yes. I also told him he has the same email if you would like to email him. He said well Ill just google it if youre not going to give it to me. I told him again I didnt have it and told him to have a nice day and hung up the phone.

I dont understand how you can be rude to someone but youre asking for their help to do something you can google anyways. Way to go Christopher Bevel @ 618-365-****.

I was convinced that this time would be different, it was not.

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

Shame on me, a couple years ago I purchased a list of prospects from Bevello and it was trash. Not one solid lead and after reaching out to the entire list there were way more wrong numbers, disconnected numbers and unsolicitied contacts then potential clients.

I chalked this experience up to failed marketing and moved on with my failed experience. A few weeks ago I was reached out to by Chris explaining that the process has completely changed and these leads were actively expecting to be reached out to by an advisor. So I agreed, again, to give it a try. The experience was the same and after 200 supposedly quality, qualified leads I had one conversation and much more of the same wrong numbers, disconnected numbers and unsolicited.

I am still waiting for my promised replacement leads, but I don't expect anything to be different with these leads when and if I get them.

I will not be making this mistake a third time. Run away from this process.

Fraud of a business

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

Do not do business with this company. There is no such thing as money back guarantee.

They will steal your money.

The list is not accurate, phone numbers are disconnected, people did not fill out so called "form" to be on a call list. This is an absolutely fraud of a business.

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I cannot believe the language this man used with my Secretary when she called to inquire about none of the leads being any good. Very unprofessional and quite likely a flat out scam. Pretty sure his wife is on only fans too, what a bimbo lol

I read bad reviews about them, but had to try for myself.

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I spoke with Chris over the phone and he explained their process and how they qualify their leads. I decided to try it for myself, even though I've always heard horror stories about buying leads.

He closed me on that first call, which is NOT normal for me. I don't like making purchases without researching the company and whatever due diligence I deem appropriate.

Right after we hung up, I googled the company and read the reviews on here. My buyer's remorse began to compound! I called him back and requested a refund.

He was EXTREMELY polite and professional about it. So much so, that I decided NOT to proceed with my refund.

I asked how soon I could expect the leads. He was very up front with the expectation that it could take a couple days, but that my 60 days doesn't begin until I receive the leads. He said they would TRY to get my leads to me by Friday (which would have been next or same-day turnaround; I can't remember), but that it may not happen sooner than their normal time.

I also knew they were getting ready to go camping.

I told him not to worry about getting me the leads til after the weekend, because I wouldn't call anyone til Monday, anyway, and that I didn't want him to take away family time to send me leads that could wait til Monday.

When I came in Monday I saw they had sent them to me on Sunday!

I checked the names & addresses with qPublic. So far, 20/20 of them are accurate. The homes are in neighborhoods that match the socioeconomic status I'm looking for ($500k+), and some of the homes I visited have personalized decor, showing the names of the residents match the leads.

Whether I close them is up to me, but I paid for qualified names & addresses of people I would want as clients and so far as I can tell, he ABSOLUTELY delivered!

The rest is on me. Thanks Chris!

Preferred solution: Nothing. I read these reviews and feel credit should be given where it is due.

User's recommendation: Decide what amount you are willing to risk on this investment and try it for yourself. Just remember what you're paying for--qualified leads; It is NOT their job to close your prospects. I got what I paid for. Go find the people that need your help, remember that NO one trusts phone calls and that building a relationship takes time. Go start with these people and be their advisor, not their salesman.

The owner called and tried to sell me more leads. I told him his prospects were not legit, like throwing mud against the wall and hoping it sticks. I will never work with this company again,.

Original review Jun 08, 2021

End up costing $8.75 per lead. 250 leads paid $350.

16 hours to enter into a database to print letters. 250 stamps, 250 envelopes, 8 hours to print letters, stuff envelopes.16 letters returned as a bad address. 8 hours to phone all leads. 31% went straight to BUSY.

33% was not a working number. 5% Voice mail not set up.

11% reached immediately said NO. Left Message on 20% (1 call back said NO) NO).Do Not Call List.

We have NEVER refused to give someone replacement leads. In fact, we have honored replacement leads years after someone has bought.

We set aside a certain amount specifically for replacements, so there is no way we would just let those go to waste. As far as “dragging you along” there is just 2 of us here, you would have talked to one of us, and we would have reviewed anything that you found unacceptable. In the 11 years we have been in business we don’t have 1 client named Lora. I checked all files, emails, hard drive etc.

You can call us at anytime to discuss this matter, ( if this is legit, and maybe you used a fake alias on here!?) since this is the first time ever hearing of anything like this, and it’s mid January.

Are you sure you have the correct company?? Kristin Bevel

Poor Quality Lists and Misleading Communication

I purchased a list from Chris Bevel who touted himself as the "only approved vendor" for my firm.

The list was supposed to be fresh. It has 35% disconnected and wrong numbers. I complained once via email and was told I had to finish the list. When I finished the list, I was told that I had passed 60 days of usage and no refunds were available. Yes, its in writing on the contract about the 60 days. HOWEVER, if I was generating rubbish lists, I would want to make it right.

I don't know where these charlatans get their content. Maybe they cut and paste phone listings by zip code. There is no way these lists represented what they claimed in terms of recent (2 weeks) activity.

Don't waste your time with this fly by night company that only wants your money.

WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY!!

Chris called the office of my employer, was using four and five letter words that are NEVER appropriate for a business setting. He was rude, chauvinistic, and unprofessional.

He called my office twice in one day and used derogatory language both times. I would not ever do business with this man or his company- and his website promotes his ability to create a positive client experience, I don't believe he is capable of a positive experience.

January 26, 2015 this post was brought to Bevello Management's attention. We have reviewed our records and find no indication of any such transaction. We have checked all emails, voicemails and other methods of communication; and have yet to find a request for a refund in the amount of $500. We typically do not sell $500 worth of leads to anyone except past clients, nor are we located in Tallahassee, FL. Bevello Management stands behind our product 100%.

I paid for a list of people to contact for their investment needs. I work for a very well known investment firm that has been around for almost 100 years & well respected.

They guaranteed at least 100 people would be interested out of the 500. Bevello gets their list from inquiries on the internet. I visited almost all and got 0 hits. I asked for my money back; they refused.

I was told these were people with higher medium to high incomes.

The last house I visited is listed on our local Property Appraiser's website as a value of $10,400 and that is the house and the land together. Thus; now they are on PissedCosumer.com.
