Branded logo design, logo bench, social avenue

I was scamed $1200.stay away, 9 complaints with BBB Hired them to design logo. They are incompetent liars,never provided me with the logo I requested after 2 months of working with them. read their terms and conditions at bottom of website. stay away you will loose your money. they will ask you to give them more time, there sorry its taking so long I was on vacation, getting married, my dog died etc,etc,etc So it takes longer and when they dont deliver they tell you refund was only for the first 30 days. All you get is lies. they lie about what they can do and they have 0 credibility.

Similar experience.

What I know:

1) Call center in Pakistan. False pretense of operating in the U.S.

2) Play the same scam under many names (BrandedLogo, Logobench, VideoJeeves, Logo Sanctuary, etc)

3) They are being investigated by Federal law enforcement, although no arrests have been made to my knowledge

4) Mr.

Farhaad Sheikh os Pleasanton, CA is one of the owners/founders. https://www.intelius.com/people/Farhaad-Sheikh/Pleasanton-CA/0ccbrjyvepj I hope this helps.

I wish I had this information before I was ripped off. I just hope the police catch up with them before too many other people get burned.

Same experience. I filed a complaint with the FBI internet fraud division as they consistently said I would get a refund but gave false names and addresses. Their behavior is criminal.

Starting up my business was one of the most exciting times in my life. That excitement quickly turned to panic when I realized everything that needed to be done. Two of the most obvious elements of business recognition are the logo and the website. I searched the web and found LogoBench. They had some great reviews, so I decided to put my logo and website in their hands. I was pleasantly surprised with the quick turn around and quality product. I loved the way they listened to my ideas and truly matched a design to them. I have gotten so many complements on my logo.

I have been working with Ray Smith over the last few weeks on my website. The only reason it has taken that long is because of my travel schedule. He was great with reminders, and his response time was amazing. I enjoyed working with him and appreciated all of his help and guidance that he offered so willingly. At Ray’s suggestion, I decided to purchase the CMS package. This proved to be the best thing. I really liked getting back into a little programming and working on my site with the help from Ray and the Developers. I am extremely happy with the site, the logo and especially with LogoBench and their staff. I hope my business proves to be as efficient and customer friendly as yours. I am very excited about my site going live soon!

Thank you for everything,

Stay Away

Just like the other gentleman described. They offer low rates to hook you in with a promise web and logo within 24 to 48 hours. I let them go for weeks and they offered logos that were not as requested. Never listened to design ideas. Online payment is NOT secure - they open a chat dialogue box to pay. Silly me I fell for it and compromised my online account information. Now bunch of erroneous charges (fraud)showed up on my credit card!!! What a mess! They don't deliver your project as stated. They will keep your money. They are difficult to contact. Forget about a refund.

I love the new logo! The designs of rest of the items are also very impressive and did not allow me a chance to raise finger on your service. Very impressive!!

Excellent work, appreciable punctuality of work. Do hold on to these business assets of yours. Good luck.

Your business structure and way of going through the design is very simple and undoubtedly effective. I had an impression that outsourcing for my logo would take a *** out of my time and would have to pin the services over and over again to get the work done. I’m glad nothing of that kind happened in my case ;)

Perfecto Irr

This is my first logo with your company. I have made few other logos for my watches, t-shirts and other brand products, and I was expecting your logo to amaze me.

I still feel that there were some ups and downs in the process, however I must say that I am really amazed by your work.

I needed something extra that can standout, and fortunately you guys have delivered exactly that. Thank you!

Before trying the service of LogoBench, I do not use to believe online services and considered all f them to be fake and scam. LogoBench really changed my perception, I got my logo well in time, and to be honest it is better than my expectations.

Terrible, LIARS AND FRAUDS

I also used one of their other companies, rapid writers and got the same thing. Still waiting on my $1000.00 refund. no one answers the phone, they duck calls, they dont give you the names of their managers or bosses. Have to get my lawyers involved.they keep saying, the money is coming, the money is coming, but its not there yet.I am so pissed about this. They were so eager at first, then they do a disappearing act. Please warn as much persons as possible and also tell the BBB in California to look out for them. Clearly Indians are there talking, and they do not respect women at all.
