Spammed me from some weird email account and tried to pretend that they wanted to interview me. Then I find out that I have to buy their service to get it. The person I talked to seemed shady and dishonorable. I would strongly avoid.

A little deceiving...
Make sure you are very clear on the services that you will receive. It is a little deceiving.

Worst service
Worst service, all this company does is take your cash and pay for a spot that is not even in the site they promise. The copy comes complete with typos and the wrong address, with no links to your website or even your name

Seems more like spam, than a real pr service…
I received an email from someone who mentioned that they wanted to publish an interview with me about my company(litespeed Racing). They did not say my name nor company name in the email though, nor did they have a signature on the email . I checked the email address and it was from goodnoon . But they did not even tell me that they worked for goodnoon. How can I trust a PR company that doesn't even know how to write a properly formatted email? The person never told me his/her name, never told me who they work for and never mentioned my name or my company's name, so it just seemed like a spam , and not a real pr service.

Shady Operators with Bait & Switch
They approached me about doing an interview with me, o mention that they were going to CGAEGE me for said interview. Then when I agreed they sprang an $89 fee in me. SHADY to say the least. Stay far away from these slick operators

We are sorry if the client was under the impression that the service was provided free of charge. Although in a perfect world we would have worked for free, we – as any other PR firm, and more in general business – need to price our services to survive in the market. The review, however, does not represent a service experience since the client has never made the order or started a working relationship with us.

NEVER USE GOODNOON PR
NEVER USE GOODNOON PR! THEY ARE A JOKE!
The company that I work for hired GoodNoon to write and publish a feature and a PR release about us. We did this on the advice of a GoodNoon representative. He advised us that these would be written by a writer from Forbes. Based on the quality—which is to say the lack thereof—of the writing, I highly doubt this. The little writing that wasn’t copy-pasted from our website was riddled with grammatical errors, which was unacceptably unprofessional and careless and would have made our business seem unprofessional and careless had it been published.
Therefore we wrote our own feature and PR release. Having little experience of writing, we forwarded them to the representative with comments that my colleagues left on the Google Docs of the feature and PR release for him to evaluate and reply to. We did this because under the “Features” heading under the “Our Services” heading on GoodNoon’s website it says:
• You can be the one to write the article and send it to us for evaluation
We asked the representative to do this before we decided if the feature and PR release were ready for publication. He advised us that they were. When he published the feature, he also published the comments that my colleagues had left on it. This is unacceptably unprofessional and embarrassing to us as a business, and damaging to our reputation as it makes us appear unprofessional. It is a joke that a PR “professional” would do this and not realise this.
Upon seeing this we emailed the representative to ask him for a phone call. He ignored that email, so we emailed him again. Once we got him on a call, he hung up within seconds of us outlining our grievance. When we tried to call him again, he rejected the call. We had to call him four times before he would pick up, at which point he told us he didn’t like to be interrupted even though he had not even listened to our grievance. As we outlined the grievance, he repeatedly interrupted this. As a service provider, he should understand that basic customer service necessitates allowing the customer to speak; yet his interruptions were especially odious and obnoxious given his repeated insistence that he himself does not like to be interrupted.
The representative told us that he had not even proofread our feature or our PR release because he assumed that since we had sent them, they were ready to published despite us asking him to evaluate them before we decided if they were as he personally assured us and as his website assures customers. He did not do this. Instead he publicly embarrassed our company with his unprofessionalism and carelessness. He told us that the platforms on which our feature had been published could not be edited, which is highly suspect in 2019. What kind of a platform doesn’t have an edit button?
Finally the representative told us that we shouldn’t care what was posted because he said that the platforms that he posts features on are so low traffic that—I quote—“only you will see it”. This defeats the purpose of hiring a PR company and show what a joke and waste of money GoodNoon are. Never use them.
tl;dr:
• GoodNoon copy-pasted almost everything from our website
• What they did write was grammatically incorrect
• We ended up having to write our own articles
• They didn’t evaluate the articles before publication like they said they would
• Published articles with comments from Google Docs left on them
• Ignored our request for calls
• Hung up on us when we were on calls
• Told us our articles wouldn’t be seen by anybody but us anyway

We are sorry about this experience. Before getting into detail we’d like to say that the client was fully refunded for the full order (pr+feature) and even featured in the outlet they chose free of charge.
The client got involved in the content writing because the information provided on their website – the only source of information given for writing the press release - didn’t match the actual service they wanted to promote. We promptly notified them about this, and they stated: “We are working on a new website and will update the SEO content as well.”
The client then sent us the revised version authorizing us for distribution, “I have attached an edited version of the PR and the Feature. Please let me know what you think, if they are correct can we move forward with the post of the articles.” But once distributed they notified us that they wanted the already distributed articles to be removed. Our CEO personally called them and explained to them that this wasn’t possible, offering them free service to fix the situation, but they didn’t believe that the system didn’t allow that.
