OnlineBookClub.orgReviews of onlinebookclub.org

Options offered to authors are varied and very useful for almost all budgets. The service is unique and has certainly helped me a lot as an author. In addition, owner Scott is very active and extremely eager to listen and help. The outfit is of great support.

I appreciated the response to my criticism of the first review of my book because it felt like the reviewer had not really read the book properly or understood the principal. message

I have enjoyed being a member of OnlineBookClub.org and a review team member. For a new member like me, it is difficult to tell whether I have successfully posted my Book of the Day reviews of the official reviews in the various social media that I have become a member for this purpose. It would help if there are instructions on how to successfully post reviews on social media. Thank you.

I like clear and straightforward policies of OBC. The team works with a mission and vision.

Scott Hughes, the owner of the company, refuses to abide by his refund policy, clearly stated on his website. He adds to it as he wishes so that he doesn't have to refund money to dissatisfied customers. He has refused my request for a refund because I had the audacity to write negative reviews about his company. Nowhere in the refund policy does it state that as a condition of a refund. He has ignored my request through the Better Business Bureau as well. Authors - actual customers of this website - stay far, far away! Now, he has replied with utter nonsense. An author decides to have a review published publicly when the review is ordered, not after. The reviewers he uses are not professional book reviewers as he promised. (Authors have no way of knowing that until the book review is put on his site.) They're just random folks around the world who want to make extra money. None of his "freebies" are legitimate, since he can't offer what he promises - a professional book review. I will quote here from his email he sent right before I ordered - "To say all of our services come with a satisfaction guarantee is an understatement. If after using our services you are "just satisfied", then that is NOT good enough. I work so hard to make OnlineBookClub.org the best it can be. I work 7 days a week, 365 days a year. I am not satisfied if you are only satisfied. I won't stop until you are MORE than satisfied." You can't satisfy me, Scott, because you didn't deliver what I ordered - a professional book review. FYI - there is a difference between a professional book review and just an ordinary reader's book review. You gave me that, but it isn't what I ordered. One of the free services he offered was a "5 star review" for my book on Amazon. That goes against Amazon policy - a guaranteed 5 star review would be a fake review. If I accepted it, I would be in danger of my book being kicked off Amazon. He offered me half a refund, then said he wouldn't give me the rest until I deleted any negative reviews I had posted online. Does that sound legitimate to you? Does that sound like a company that doesn't give refunds? And now, Scott has gone to the bottom of the barrel. I never at any time asked you to put a 5 star review on Amazon. The person who reviewed my book for your site gave it a 5 star review on your site. And, since I could not use her review as an editorial review as she is not a professional book reviewer, I asked for a regular reader's review. I did not ask that the review be by her or that it be a 5 star review. That was your choice to ask her to do it. She bought an ebook version of my book in the UK and then put up a review. Please, feel free to contact Amazon and I will be happy to send them a copy of all your emails, as well as the fact you are selling "editorial reviews" that are not editorial reviews. And, if you want to admit to Amazon that you are allowing your employees to put up fake reviews on their site, that's your business.

Mistakes were and are made but you are helpful to me and I appreciate that

They are honest, objective, fair and balanced. Great value for the money!

I have only just started working with the club and despite a few minor issues, probably of my own making, the responses from the team have been great and very helpful. So I have no hesitation in putting a 5 star rating.
