  GetDandy will not stop sending constant emails soliciting their business to remove bad reviews. I am not replying to these constant emails because I do not need their services, I have never requested their services, I have requested for them to "unsubscribe" my email EVEN THOUGH I have never subscribed AND I even have "blocked" their emails but still received these unwanted solicitations. Please have them stop! Thank you.

  Dandy is a scam, I was called countless times till I finally signed up.I signed up for a 6 month trial. After the 6 months I decided I did not like the service and requested to cancel. I made 3 cancel requests before contacting my bank asking them to block charges. I would get emails every 2 days asking for updated billing, no one responded via email. Phone number is hard to find. I finally got a hold of someone in June with him responding oh my manager is out. To this date I still get emails every day. Scam, very harassing. It just goes to my junk fold in email now. They are threating with collections??!!!Terrible experience.

  ***************************** at GetDandy, will not stop sending these constant and irritating emails soliciting their business to remove bad reviews. She obviously can't take a hint, that if we are not replying to her constant emails, we do not want her services. We have never requested her services. We are fine with the bad reviews we have on ******* we accept them and they are part of business. They just need to stop contacting us because they are wasting our time, and for a small business, that means a loss of revenue. Please just stop!

  More info

  Dandy Inc. (GetDandy.com) has misused our web contact form to send numerous spam messages, inundating us with unsolicited service offers over several months. Despite multiple attempts to unsubscribe, they have not honored our requests promptly and continue to send unsolicited emails to various companies. Moreover, they resort to changing sender details when blocked.Interestingly, Dandy Inc. lacks a publicly available physical address, utilizing a shared office suites company for their mailing address. This lack of transparency raises concerns about their business practices. They have also been removing their own business listings from reputation sites to prevent negative reviews from customers.It is evident that Dandy Inc. does not conduct their operations in an honest and ethical manner, as evidenced by the relentless stream of unsolicited spam messages they send daily and weekly. Engaging with Dandy Inc. could potentially associate your company or non-profit with their unscrupulous practices, given their disregard for ethical conduct.Considering their BBB score of all F's, it seems unlikely that they would represent your company in an honest and ethical manner. We strongly advise against engaging with Dandy Inc. or any of their employees, affiliates, contractors, partners, or representatives. We request an immediate cessation of all communication, including calls, texts, and emails, to us or any other member of our organization, using any of our company's contact email addresses and phone numbers.

  More info

  We signed up for Dandy at the end of May with hopes that their AI software would remove some of our negative, unfair reviews. We agreed to a monthly fee for 6 months with a $200 gift card for signing up. They said after 30 days, they are able to get upwards of 70 percent of reviews removed. After the 30 days, I checked in because only 1 review had been removed, many other positive reviews had been flagged, and that's it. The gift card never arrived either. I contacted support, who reported they had sent the gift card, to check my spam. It wasn't there. I became suspicious and looked up Dandy on BBB and found they are a scam. I emailed to cancel and get a refund, and they offered a meeting with their "retention manager" who never showed to our ****** Meet link. We want a refund for money's paid and cancellation of the account.

  Hi *******,

  Our VP of Sales reached out to you a week ago to address your compliant and the gift card directly (he was the one who sent it at first)

  Please check your voicemail for a message from **** and your Spam folder for the gift card as we have proof it was in fact sent (note I did not say redeemed but was sent)

  Please note that we also do not provide guarantee removal percentages as we have to work with other companies to get the taken care of based on their terms of service.

  Thanks,

  ******

  Thanks ******, for the response. 

  As I indicated in my email to you, the gift card was not in my spam folder. I never received it. If it was lost in email, you could have offered to re-send a physical or duplicate copy, which you did not. 

  I had a ****** Meet appointment to discuss our issues with *******************, and he no showed, leaving a voice message an hour before the appointment saying what you said above about the gift card, but not mentioning that he would leave me waiting in the ****** Meet room only to never show up. No one addressed that there had been NO movement on our account in a month and a half. 

  Furthermore, the numerous complaints here prove you don't provide what you promise to, and at $350/month are a total scam.

  More info

  Dandy Inc. (GetDandy.com) improperly used our web contact form to then send dozens of spam messages over several months with unsolicited offers for services. They have refused to honor unsubscribe requests in a timely manner and refuse to stop sending unsolicited emails to companies. If you are able to block the sender, they will often times start sending from a new address and name.Their company does not have a public physical address and instead use a shared office suites company for their Company mailing address. They repeatedly remove any business listings of their own company from ************ and other reputation sites because they apparently don't want customers posting negative reviews of their own company. So far Dandy Inc has been unable to remove the negative reviews many have posted here at the BBB.I believe Dandy Inc does not operate their own company in an honest and ethical manner, especially when it comes to the unrelenting stream of unsolicited spam messages sent out on a daily and weekly basis. If you hire Dandy Inc,, you are essentially asking Dandy to represent you and your company or non-profit when they contact reviewers.If Dandy Inc. won't operate and conduct their own business in an honest and ethical manner, can you really be sure they will represent your company in an honest and ethical way as well? Given the score of all F's on the BBB website, I would suggest, probably not. I ask that Dandy Inc, their employees, affiliates, contractors, partners, and anyone else associated with or representing this company or their services to stop contacting me or my organization immediately and to never call, text, or email me or anyone else at our organization ever again and that includes any of our company contact email addresses and phone numbers.

  Hi ***********

  I am the Director of Customer Success here at Dandy. 

  I want to personally apologize for not getting your company removed when you requested this and have sent this over to our outbound marketing team to make sure this is taken care of quickly. 

  We do in fact have a physical office, I have been there myself for meetings. 

  As far as our own listings we follow the *** of ****** and Yelp just as any other company we work with to remove incorrect reviews.

  We in fact operate our own company day to day and are an independent private company with no outside investors at this point.

  We will honor your request to remove your company from our contact. 

  Thank you.
