My experience with the BBB is, it is a wastebasket for your money!

It probably isn't relevant anymore. With Yelp etc. The south FL plug was pulled on it years ago.

Good Wednesday morning Dennis. I look at the Better Business Bureau as the Fox looking after the chicken coop. I do not feel that it is worth the expense.

In this day and age I think Yelp is more relevant.

Dennis, can't say I pay a ton of attention to the Better Business Bureau. But if I see a rating, especially a low one, I will take a second look.

Well, I agree that BBB is mostly used for complains by regular people.
I use....Yelp:)

In 1990 it didn't have much relevance other than a threat. They have no enforcement.

I stopped long ago when they stopped reprersenting businesses the way they should and started being a waste basket of complaints

Absolutely not. I think the ratings are completely misleading. It is just a collection of complaints unless you pay to be a member. I do not hear of many buyers or sellers who even look at it.

No I think it gave up its relevancy 30 years ago and most of the companies that brag about their membership are a little shady already

Dennis,
I think the BBB missed the boat years ago. It has the rants with few positives.

Dennis Swartz I was a member, but didn't see any advantage to it business wise.

That's a great question. I was a member for years and I never felt the effects. It was bragging rights. I feel like Yelp.com and online reviews have overshadowed the BBB and even made it seem "old fashioned". They certainly are not very present or impactful in San Diego.

With Yelp, FB and a few others you can get a feeling for a business oe someone quickly.

It is as relevant as the phone book and vaudville. Before Yelp and online review sites, it was relevant. Now, they've lost the market.

Good morning Dennis. Haven't been part of the BBB for years, so apparently it hasn't made a difference.

Dennis Swartz there are business who are not member of BBB - and still respond to complaints from consumers.
I have got positive results against couple of corporations where they initially refused to take care of anything.

Dennis - I'm not sure of the relevancy of the BBB but it's been years since I've even heard mention of it.
I'm not sure who(if anyone) uses it.
I don't think I've ever checked it out.

I have had clients check out vendors there, and think it is still relevant.

Old school this BBB is. Today, the Internet exposes all both good and bad
