FREE CAR


Beware this one too!

Free Car Media / Free Car Directory

For $29.95 you will sign up to either receive a monthly payment for wrapping your car with an advertisers ad; or you will receive a NEW already wrapped car to drive.

I joined this nearly 4 years ago.

I have yet to EVER receive 1 contact.

When I email the company, I get either NO response or a "form" email letter. (These tend to TICK ME OFF.)

Here is their snail-mail address:

Free Car Media
11990 San Vicente Blvd. Suite 350
Los Angeles, CA 90049

or it might be: Free Car Directory

Net Driven, Inc.
90 N. Lincoln Rd.
East Rochester, NY 14445

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You can't get an answer from EITHER company so as far as I'm concerned...they are BOTH thieves and rip-off artists.

BEWARE!!!!

UPDATE:

The business has not made any further concessions to their original response.

Unfortunately, the BBB can not pursue the matter further. This complaint case is now considered closed UNRESOLVED.
