Edmonton companies, avoid BubbleUP!!

1. Owner is all slimy car salesman. doesn't return calls. no integrity. 2. owner lies. He lies about the work done, the hours, and then sends an outrageous bill. 3. I caught him lying about his staff. An employee completed a task and sent it to me so I know it was done and then sent to the owner Jason Vance for followup. When I emailed the owner saying where's the stuff, he claimed the employee didn't ever do it and wasn't reliable. 4. he promises seo results, to be on the first page of google, just a few thousand dollars. it doesn't happen. GO SOMEWHERE ELSE!!!!!!

Cons
  • This company one bit bubbleheads
Reason of review
Poor customer service

Gave me a $3000 website, for $30,000

This terrible company gave me what basically amounted to a $3000 website, for $30,000 and half of what was promised wasn't even done. I found out the owner Jason used a wordpress template but lied and said it was a custom one that took hours and hours of programming and he didn't order the content what he was supposed to for my site because he coulnd't put any more on his credit card because it was maxed!! what kind of monkey outfit is this anyway. The service was *** and I got the run around anytime I phoned. Just don't use this place, there are better companies in Edmonton for websites

  • Worst company ever
Reason of review
Problems with payment

All sales, no results. terrible customer service!!!

went with this company based on a friend saying he had just started using them and so far so good. what a terrible, awful place that doesn't return phone calls once they get your money (UPFRONT!!!) and gives no results. bubble up marketing in edmonton is good at sales and sucks at delivery. i find the owner unathentic a smooth talker and zero integrety. designs I got for my website were amateur like a five year old drew them. go elsewehre!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! just totally skip this country. oh ya their marketing woman karly is a total airhead she gave me a marketing report that was the exact copy of the one she did for my friend!!! even left HIS business name in it. how dumb can you get!!!!

Greedy owner, doesn't deliver seo and website as promised

Long story short jason vance of bubble up marketing is a greedy scoundrel who will take your money and s c r e w you over and give you nothing. No seo results no website despite spending THOUSANDS of dollars and waiting months and months. Jason vance talks a good talk but doesn't deliver. I've never met a human with less integrity but he's a *** fine bull *** t e r. Sobif ya want to spend your hard earned cash and get sweet talk and empty words by all means call up jason vance and bubble up marketing seo and websote design edmonton and watch your money in my opinion.... bubble up and float away with lots of hot air.

Bad company with marketing that only sounds good

This is one of the worst companies I have ever dealt with. The staff are overworked and frantic. The owner ? Jason don't know his last name is a seemingly nice guy until he gets your money and then its just phone calls that don't get returned. Emailsddon't get answered. Months and months went by after I paid over $5000 for serviced and NOTHING nada. I had to threaten to drive there in person to get the reception dimwit to promise to hand deliver my message to the owner and she still couldn't say when he would call back. I guess my company must sue. Bad bad bad experience!!!!!!

Shady company paid thousands for website... months late

This company is shady first it was bubble up then bought a bunch of companies tied up with trinus then red shark then whytespace. Bubbleup owner told me he couldnt finish my website on time because his credit card was too full to pay for the domain name to put my website up!! Dont worry I will borrow money to pay my bill I promise your site will get done blah blah he said always an excuse and more broken promises. Ten months later no website looking at suing the guy jason vance of spruce grove to get my money back. Apparently the wife is a pastor does she know what a scam artist she married no honor just empty lies and more excuses.

OMG I had the same experience with this company!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I was a whytespace customer and got stuck with bubble up marketing because they merged and I was stuck in a retainer contract for $1000 a month and got absolutely NOTHING for servivce, SEO or results. See you in court JASON!!!!!!!!!!!!

#665559

I have never dealt with such an unreliable owner. This fellow comes across and sincere and trustworthy but when it comes to performance I give bubble up a fail. Basically my company spent many thousands of dollars and months later we have nothing accomplished.

Gong show for website

this place must be run out of a closet or something. the owner doesn't phone people back. totally appropriate name, bubble up the people must have brains made of bubbles. the owner doesn't answer emails unless you threaten to not pay the bill. last april they did my husband's website and the woman who wrote it sounded like she was in grade 3. the text was awful and sounded ***.how hard is it to write about construction. only after complaining did they outsource the job to another writer. avoid this place at all costs!! what a waste of time and money. plus it took 8 months for a five page website! ridiculous.

This company lies, broken promises, no results after paying $1000/month for seo in edmonton. Do not use bubble up marketing ever!!!

#644339

This outfit is a joke. dont get taken in by jason vance the owner hes like a slimy used car sales man all talk and empty promises no action.

he has no prob hounding people to pay 95% of the bill for work when only 20% of the work is done.

he blamed poor staff for HIM not returning my emails for weeks. Keep away from these bubble blowing bubble-heads clearly they spend more time having fun with their juvenile bubblegum than dealing with their customers!!!!!!!

#624587

What a piece of work these guys are. They will promise you everything and then won't even give you a copy of the contract.

They are all real sweet until they get your money and then they either don't return calls, e-mails or are extremely abusive with you.

They have the attitude that you are working for them. What BULLIES!

Save yourself grief and money by staying away from this company!

Bubble Up Marketing (if it really exists) withdraw $90 from my account without any order or authorization. I have never dealt with this company in the past.

I researched in Google and I found four results. All of them said that this company is a scam.

Avoid avoid run the other way!!!

after spending $4000 for seo from bubble up, and being promised by the owner Jason personally that I would rank on page one or two of google for my website, 9 months later!!!!! only half the seo work was done and I wasn't even ranking on page 6 of google.

i had to stop paying the monthly bills to even get my call returned by the owner.

You should post a review on Yelp. Just go to www.yelp.ca/edmonton and search BubbleUp Marketing.

They will come up.

This is the best place to post because when people search for web design or marketing on their smartphones, yelp is the first search that comes up.

I now know why they are called BubbleUP, they are full of hot air and just bubbleheads. STAY AWAY from them....They will hurt you not help you or your business.

Bad service doesnt return calls makes false promises this guy is a liar he says he will do something and then doesnt, but blames his staff. Avoid avoid avoid!!!!!

#637641

The owner of this company jason vance is no better than a used car salesman. He charged me thousands and thousands for a website and marketing and lost my contract and I ended up with a *** looking cheap website that was ripped off code from other companies.

The guy doesnt finish on time and does not do what he says he will do when he says he will do it . His word is *** . He cares about money and when I complained he blames his incompetent staff telling me his guys have tk be babysat or they wont do the work.

This guy is the worst shyster ever!!!!! Go anywhere else but here !!!!!

Bad service, poor results

used these people for seo and my rankings kept falling. emailed them every week with no results and finally went somewhere else. they also were six months behind schedule on my website. finally told them to forget it, but i still got their ridiculous bill. the owner is a great salesperson oh yeah, he got my money but he doesn't deliver on promises. every time i asked he assured me it would get fixed or get done or was being worked on. this place couldn't do the work they had and was still working on getting new customers. plus, they billed 90% of the work when i hadn't even seen a design mockup. avoid this company and their shyster owner.

SEO company makes promises, takes money, doesn't deliver!!!

Paid over $1000 a month to this so-called marketing company on retainer to keep my google rankings on first page. Not only did my company fall in rankings constantly, the owner Jason Vance never followed through with anything he ever promised me. He took weeks to answer just one email. And then he promised to use my coupon for free bing advertising worth $300 and didn't bother before it expired!!! the money I spent ($6000+) was wasted with bubble up marketing, because at the end of my term they couldn't even show me what hours or tasks they'd spent on my company to improve my seo!!! my opinion: this place is a joke run by amateurs. Use one of the reputable big name companies instead.
