GBAfter using this company on and off for… After using this company on and off for 5 years I have said goodbye! As Datalot grows the quality of leads and the quality of customer support has become pathetic!! I sent a few emails over a month ago to the director of sales here in Florida and still have not received a reply!

GBCustomer service is Great I will give… Customer service is Great I will give them that. The sales people make great promises that don't show up in the quality of calls. The calls are the lowest quality of calls that I have seen yet. Most of the customers you cant understand or they think there getting 40k in free insurance. I was paying $101.00 for a lot of the calls and you get somebody on the phone that cant even hold a conversation. Ten calls not one person worth a $5.00 lead...

GBTech support is the worst for Datalot Tech support is the worst for Datalot. It seems like everyday it logs us out automatically and we have to reset the password. I call everytime to fix the problem and all they say is "no one else is having this issue". They ask if we want another password sent to us as always. This is not professional at all. Allstate

GBQuality of Live Transfers Has Gone Downhill Quality of Live Transfers has gone downhill and, yet, cost per lead has gone up. I was warned about this happening with Datalot by other former users. For the first 60 days you have an on boarding account manager, which worked out well. Bogus live transfers (immediately hung up, mentally incompetent, etc.) were immediately refunded by them. Now that we have been using them for 60+ days we get transferred to a new account manager and most replies are about how they cannot help with a refund or that they are beyond the scope of what is refundable because the lead "passed" the questioning with a customer support rep. How ironic that Datalot doesn't seem to mind billing for ANY live transfer with a pulse, but the moment we ask for a refund on a bad lead it outside the terms of service. If Datalot wants to keep their clients then it might be prudent to weigh what value they bring to their business revenues. An occasional refund for a completely bogus lead shouldn't be such a hassle. Rather, it should be considered essential for quality customer service.

GBI was informed that leads would cost less I was informed that leads would cost about $60 for standard (healthy) individuals, but then no leads came in for over a week. I kept raising my price until I finally got anybody and it was costing $120 per lead and most were bordering on homeless or drug addicts. My rep told me that because of my 'filters' I would have less leads, even though he stated that it should be higher during our onboarding. In the end, the only real filter I have is that they are not with a terminal illness. Kathleen Shugg sends generic emails pretending to care and asks how she can help. However, when I reach out with concerns she simply states that she cannot really help. Total scam of a company. I even messaged the founders on LinkedIn to see if they would defend the company's actions. They never responded.
