GBFake Algorithm for bidding Datalot has a developed a ponzi scheme on the bidding for live leads. We thought it was just a phase, but we set up a control group where the new clients were enticed with low live transfer costs. Jean was more than happy to assist them. Shortly after, they were winning bids within the same states as despite our team having a bid higher by $27! Such fraudulent bidding is grounds for litigation. We have decided to leave them as a result. Others should consider the same after taking advantage of their bias towards growth, which is more than likely a desire to sell off the company to another larger business entity. Don't believe us? Check out the pedigree of the board.

GBBurning Dollars Step 1. Simply take your money and place it in a trash can outside of your office. Step 2. Add generous amount of gas. Step 3. Throw match into the trash can. Step 4. Enjoy. The customer service was generally good, however the quality of the leads was terrible. We have had better success using xdates which we have purchased for pennies compared to 30 dollars for DataLot. Many of the leads were not qualified properly and some seemed confused as to why were connected. Long story short, enjoy burning your money.

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

GBDatalot is a scam Datalot is a scam. The last 2 weeks there were no live xfers. When there were live transfers, one lady told me she was responding to a tv ad for $13 a month life insurance for $50k of coverage for seniors. This is the kind of fraudulent advertising that all of these lead companies use to generate low quality leads that they charge between $60-$250 for. The next call I got was a guy who said he had a heart attack. If you have a heart attack, you can't get life insurance. The next call I got was a guy with dementia. If you have dementia, you can't get life insurance. Most places out there refund all of these calls. Datalot did not refund even one of them. That is when I told them to close my account and refund my money. That was last week and I still have yet to hear anything back or receive the money left in my account. My account manager was named Emily and she was awful. I never heard from her unless I emailed her. She would not go over my numbers for the month. Gave no suggestions of how to maximize my results. I already see this company's ratings are low, but I just wanted to make sure nobody invests with them.

GBThis company was great when it first… This company was great when it first started. Now you are bidding a high amount for leads and they create a 1 pager that they have given new farmers agents setting unrealistic expectations in my area. My average call costs $70 and the quality is not as good as it once was. They have also are difficult on their return policy even though they might send you a mobile home or something that isn't related to your campaign. The only reason I am giving 3 stars and not less is because I have had a decent conversion ratio (25%) This is good if you already have an established agency with 2 Million in premium. If you know how to generate your own leads organically it might cost you less.
