WATCH OUT FOR THIS COMPANY!!! The Business Directory marketing company has been making *****ulent payment demands and harassing my small, one-man business. I was initially contacted by this company via WhatsApp regarding a marketing service to assist my business with advertising across various social media platforms and online directories. All communication took place via WhatsApp. In the very first message it was clearly stated that the marketing service was a 12-month package for a once-off payment of R1,500. Based on this, I proceeded with payment. Thereafter, they sent me links to the adverti*****ts that were created. I did not receive any further communication from them after October 2024. Since February 2026, I have been receiving repeated emails and payment demands for an alleged outstanding amount, despite the fact that the original invoice was marked as paid. Today, I received another email as well as additional WhatsApp messages stating that I must pay cancellation fees or an additional R1,500 for the time the adverti*****ts have been running. Their offices now claims that the adverts continue to run beyond the 12-month period I originally agreed to, despite no further consent from my side. Furthermore, they have threatened to flag my business as a “bad payer” on Google and other social media platforms, as well as to blacklist my business on ITC, should I refuse to make further payment.

I am the co-owner of a business in South Africa, and I’ve been harassed by so-called “Business Directory” ****mers since 2016. They’ve resurfaced again in 2025—same tactics, same threats.
