    Hi Guys


    Few months ago a company called yelp.com contacted me and asked me if i want to add my website in their directory.I told them no and that was all.Few days latter they added my website to their directory,they added some weird uk phone number and a very bad review.I emailed them to ask them what s going on and i found out that they have the legal right to add companies to their directories without asking if they want to be added.I complained to google ireland and they told me that there is not to much they can do about it.How is this legal?I refused to be added to their directory and they added my company anyway,then they added the worst review ever.What can i do about it?They want me to buy addvertising in their directory.

    Many thanks

    Not sure if this is in the best section to get the best advice.

    Why can't you get your loyal customers and friends to review your company on yelp.ie to tilt the balance in your favour?

    Does it have the correct link to your website on yelp?
