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.

This place is the typical shitbag tall talk no actual service marketing company. Do you want to waste your money? work with them. nothing about the name of their company or what they do is live transfers whatsoever. Then when you catch on to the little scam they don't pick up their phones. That's okay I'm going to make sure that everywhere on the internet knows how BS this company is.

As a lead source their job is to MISLEAD you. The biggest thing they neglect to mention is that they have a MINIMUM BID on the leads.. Auto Min. bid is $50!!! Home is $58!!! Not once in the sales conversation did they mention that. The leads are also sold to other agents. NOT TO MENTION THE PENALTY! IF YOU MISS A CALL YOU ARE CHARGED THE FULL PRICE OF THE LEAD! AWFUL UNETHICAL COMPANY

I usually don't write reviews because I don't have time. I have to speak my mind about Datalot. They prey on lower socio-economic people. Every lead I have received has been on SSI income or no job at all. There bidding system is very suspect based on the other agencies I have spoken with. I have been using leads for years and this is by far the most suspect service in my opinion.

They believe themselves to be the Devine Lead service. The only positive thing i have to say about this company is the return service... as long as i'm an a$$hole to the clients and hang up on them immediately after finding they don't fit my filters that is... otherwise they don't approve the refund. Not to mention you get penalized each time you do. 4 leads in a row not qualified... Each return ensure's i'll be spending a little more on my bid if i want to win a lead. $120 minimum is a complete ripoff for this. I had success back in 2018 but they thought they were worth the extra money and thought they could afford to slack on quality... P.S. I have a recording of their rep letting a pregnant lady through my filters even after she said she was pregnant. Dirty company.. Don't give them your money.

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.

First 60 days were very good and helpful with Rachel, now that we've been passed on to a new account rep we realize it's a complete scam. Leads were averaging just under $47 per live transfer and now we are only getting occasional leads for nearly $80 and almost everyone has been an inbred. The transfer reps work on commission and are enticed to transfer any living organism that puts out a pulse. We have not seen the purpose of our new account manager other than to tell us refunds are not within the ToS. We have moved on as a result as should you and your agency if you're looking for a quality live transfer service.

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!
