In this desperate corona time, I decided to find clients out of regular platforms. Bark website was looking nice to me however there was something wrong with this website.
I have read some reviews on Trustpilot and I notice that they are getting a river of 5-star reviews from ONLY AND ONLY invited people “This Company sent a review invitation outside of Trustpilot’s systems. Reviews collected this way are automatically labeled invited”
Why Bark is worse than you think
– £250 for 250 leads, that is enough for 8 – 12 leads
– They will charge you £300, not £250 (£50 hidden tax)
– They will turn on auto-fill credit without your permission
– They will refuse to refund your money even you didn’t spend your credit
– I have contacted 10 leads via email, the message even call and LinkedIn got 0 responses
– You going to most likely spend your leads on people who testing bark, I made a request for a lead in less than 20 sec
– Less than £250 for an e-commerce website? This is a joke you need to spend £25 to view a lead from someone who asked for a 25 pages e-commerce website.
Conclusion
If you are a web design, developer or you offer any other type of online services don’t waste your time on the bark. £250 is way too much for few probably fake leads. You can find the same or better leads on platforms like Fiverr, Upwork, and similar.
