Top Rated Site of the Week:

Total RIP OFF Misleading From the Start

I research them all, especially when I see a system which is supposedly going to build your business on auto pilot. What a joke, not only did it totally fail out of the gate, they lost their merchant account, and it took months to get it resolved and refunded, but when they supposedly got it together, I gave it another shot, and this was even worse than the merchant account issues.

I got not one single sign up after spending almost $600 on their so called packages. Not a single sign up and they promoted a high percentage based on their so called beta results, totally misleading, and I don't know of anyone who saw any results. What is worse is this was just a plot to get people into Shaklee, so again, totally misleading using false downline data making your think you can earn from all who come in under you, yet this too was not true. It was purely and simply a bait and switch, so with Paul Birdsall being a scammer, already pumping another deal with gas pills and promise of earning $135 guaranteed, forget it, just another lie, read the fine print.

Absolute scam that only aims to

Get your money. I signed up for my membership a couple of months backa and paid the $10 trial period. I was charged my monthly fee three days later. And this is the place where all their promises held up. Nothing else that they offered to me did happen as they promised. For one thing, I never did receive any opt-in leads. I convinced a couple of friends to join under me but I earned nothing by that. I was furious by then and tried to contact the customer support. It was a long waiting and I have sent around 20 e-mails but not even ONE has been responded by now. Their forum is horrible as it is all locked down and you can't write in it, probably because of all the scam complaints with which it is filled. In the end I had much problems revoking my membership and they succeeded in charging me another $40 before I could cancel it. In the end I lost around $100 for absolutely nothing and was very bitter about falling for this scam. I strongly advise you - stay away from this site! They only aim to get your money and will leave you empty-handed. I did try to ask for a refund but, of course, no response yet. And I am skeptical about receiving a response, much less my money back. Stay away!

Not a good idea

I would strongly advise anyone to stay far away from this. I had to cancel my credit card and change banks. Everything about this website is a scam. Do the research you will find the truth. I could write days on end about this website, but just google the name with SCAM at the end and you can read all the horror stories also.

I wouldn't recommend anyone try this website, many have been scammed and I have yet to find any successful people to get this website to work.

My latest experience with SFS 1/7/2019

SFS Cancellation Reasons/History

Note to SFS Support on 12/17

I want to cancel my membership ASAP. I request a confirmation indicating that I will not be billed again for the Basic Membership and The Silver Package.

My reasons are as follows:

No valid response to Ticket ID: SEQ-493429. From my original membership I had 2 Basic packages and 2 10K lead packages that were never broadcast. If they had ever been broadcast where are the results?

For 40,000 leads I must have got a few hits.

My new membership was signed on 11/27 and my purchase of a Silver Package was on 11/30. I have tracked the results of both packages and “hits” from the Basic has averaged 2 per day and the Silver Package had averaged 26 per day but has dwindled to 13 per day.

There has been 4 trial signups, but I have no indication

which package generated the signups.

I received no response from Support, and toward the end of December

I sent a note requesting answers to all questions, but have never

received a response.

At the end of December I had accumulated 8 so-called trial members out of about 700 clicks. By using a trick or two (signing up using another computer and new ID), I determined that there are no such category as trial members anymore, and that the 700 click total is actually exposures, and the trial member total are actually clicks and not signups.

Thus in one month I got ZERO signups.

At December end I was billed again for the Basic Package.

The next day I cancelled my Credit card with the Card company,

and as a result SFS was not able to bill me again for the Silver Package like they did the basic Package.

My Credit Card company will soon be in the process of trying to

recover as much money as possible from SFS due to FRAUDULENT activity.

If this company is real they sure have me fooled in a big way,

Bob

Never delivered

They redirected all my 1252 sign ups to Paul Birdsall's ID#

and the only way I could cancel them was to cancel my credit card.

They are being litigated against by Shaklee Corp. and Paul Birdsall

and Joel Broughton both have prior criminal records in Alberta, Canada

where the attorney general is prosecuting them for criminal fraud. Anyone who stays any longer does not want to hear the truth. I have done the research and know the facts.

Still early to tell

I have joined Streamline Funnel ever since the first time it was launched, I was very inspired by their sales letter, and thought that this might be the one. However I am very disappointed, their support is worthless after emailing them since August finally I got a not-so-great reply and that was not even clear. I have been led to think that I might have some huge downline which I will profit from which is not the case. Ever since their first launch all there was were problems with the site and still is. It seems that now finally I am active and am in the rotary system and so far I only got 54 hits to my site.

I have asked support if I will get my 10,000 monthly opt-ins for the money I paid for the month of Aug, Sept, Oct, and Nov and no reply yet. From the reviews I read I am very discouraged but I am going to hang around a bit longer to give them a chance to solve all the issues they have with their site. I still believe that it will work once it's on it's feet and running properly.

I have not purchased any of their advertising packages as I am the type of a person that first I want to see the results I was promised from my monthly membership of 10,000 monthly opt-ins.

At present I will not recommend it to anyone as we still have to wait and see if they fulfill their promises of making money without doing anything.

Love The Relaunched System Even More

I must say I loved the Streamline Funnel System the 1st time around. There is indeed a lack of support within the system, but I have no doubt that will be resolved. I do love that information is now passed through the blog vs having to deal with a forum. The system itself seems to be much more organized in the new system, offers 5 ways to earn now vs just two in the previous system and is not a generic system so that opens up commissions for so many more people. The system is also not centered solely on the traffic generation methods it teaches and the lead generation software (which you can also view on the blog & in the system) vs a person such as Paul Birdsall. This offers a huge window if you are an internet marketing business leader to brand YOURSELF instead of someone else.

To date I have made a little over $1800 using the Streamline Funnel System, but I will add that is through my own advertising efforts not through any lead pack purchases. I actually do take offense to a previous comment on this list that was stated that anyone making money in this system is lying... I have a team that would definitely dispute that comment and some other team leaders that would do the same as well. The Streamline Funnel System may not be for everyone, but it sure has worked for a lot of us.

The new updated additions are just icing on the cake.

Don't fall for their "relaunch" either

As many of you may know, after the horrible first launch, they're now trying it again. How convenient.

Let me tell you the truth...

I was billed multiple times for the monthly fee in just a few short days... they NEVER answered any of my support tickets, then they turned the comments off on their forum because it was getting flooded with really ticked off people who were getting scammed.

FINALLY, they provided an email address, which you really had to search for in order to find (it wasn't plainly listed) where you could request refunds. Meanwhile, my credit card went over the limit and I had to pay the fees for that too!

This doesn't even cover the extra $99 I paid for an exclusive promotion package where MY LINK and MY LINK only was supposed to be mailed to people who had already requested info on SFS... not ONE signup from this... in fact, I don't believe it ever went out.

Now keep in mind, while all of these issues were going on Paul totally ignored the problems and all he could talk about was his wonderfully exciting Las Vegas trip for all the top earners!

And then they RELAUNCH?????

If you join SFS, you're making a big mistake.

SFS bad move

I joined SFS, paid my $9.95, I was instantly credited with one downline member and $9. I thought this was the one, having joined many MLM systems in the past, you'd think I'd have learned by now. Anyway, after receiving my $9 very quickly I decided to carry it on. I paid my first monthly subscription 3 days later and continuously checked my account daily.

I began to see what I thought was MY downline grow quite rapidly, and I thought it wouldn't be long before I started seeing some cash being added to my account. I was waiting patiently to see the next $15 from the person directly below me, it never came. I then started to read into it more, what I discovered shocked me.

It showed me where to find my sponsors name, I didn't have one, the "DAILY VLOG" was about 2 weeks old, the word "DAILY" has now been removed but it is STILL the same video that has been there for a MONTH.

I got two of my friends to sign up under my link, I received NO commission from their sign ups. I lodged support tickets concerning this, to date, 103. No one has contacted me, surprise, surprise.

I joined their forum. The only place you can post is in the "Introduce Yourself" section. Your post has to be reviewed and if it contains any negative comments it doesn't get published, although a moderator did answer a question I had, via a personal email to me, when I tried to reply I was told that the person did not accept personal replies.

Nobody ever makes any money from this, except Paul Birdsall. He even comments in his Vlog that he sacked all his team for incompetence, that's a laugh, he doesn't have a team, he works alone.

I have since tried to cancel my membership but ended up reporting my credit card lost as they DON'T respond to any contact.

Give this one a wide berth, anyone who says they are earning are LIARS.

SFS offers ZERO Support

I have not been able to log in to the SFS back office for almost a month. Therefore I have no way of knowing what if anything is going on with my monthly lead outs and the 2 10,000 lead packages I paid for. Luckily I was able to stop a 3rd order going thru via my bank.

As for the $39.96 monthly that is due imminently and I don't know if I have any signups under me or what. There is absolutely No Support.

And try calling the co phone #. Of course no one will answer and no one will return your call or take any action.

Mr. Birdsall does not seem to care that people, like me, and I'm sure many others- are frustrated. I learned in Business 101 that COMMUNICATION is the key to success in any business.

IMHU Streamline Funnel gets a Big "F" in this crucial area!

SFS is all that it is cracked up to be

I joined SFS 6 weeks ago and already I am in profit, as I have 2 enrollees that both came from leads provided by SFS as part of the monthly fee. They were sent a series of e-mails by what is called the rotator. All of the work is done by the company. I have done nothing other than make welcoming phone calls to my enrollees. Both gentlemen have upgraded and made further purchases. These individuals are excited at their prospects, as am I.

Paul Birdsall is a brilliant marketer and a down to earth great guy who cares about people. My sponsor Nick "The Bear" is an IM pro that has taken me under his wing. He has sponsored many into the System, and is 3rd in sales in SFS. I encourage everyone to join.

Do not waste your money!

To put it in a nutshell, I signed up, paid the monthly dues, paid for the extra 10,000 leads that he would advertise for me, and made NOTHING. I feel that I was scammed. In total I paid for over 30,000

leads and not one person signed up??? Come on, the odds of that happening just don't go that way. You would think at least ONE person would sign up. Maybe everyone already got wind of this one and won't join.

SFS Web 3.0 = Funded Proposal + Web 2.0 downline

Forgive me, as I am a former SFS member, and therefore some of you might automatically attribute these remarks as sour grapes. If you assume that in advance then please read elsewhere.

I joined just slightly after launch. And yes, I did make numerous allowances for technical glitches of a "new system". But how many should one allow? And how long should one listen to the proverbial "any day now" VLOG speeches, prior to establishing a line of poor planning, no vision or forethought, and exceptionally poor credibility? All of that I shall let your experience determine; as mine led me to all of those things, and more...

This entire "Web 3.0" system is little more than a funded proposal (which is illegal in some jurisdictions), coupled with a typical web 2.0 down line system to provide, what Mr. Birdsall calls "Leverage" of the opportunity... HHHHAAA ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha...

Right... let's look at what this really is which is a funded proposal to whet your appetite, and then get you to sign up under Mr. Birdsall in his existing downline for a product manufacturer, and grow his (and his team's) stake in that specific business. Where in order to be "successful", you have to "auto-buy" $100 worth of crap and hope that some other putz comes in under you and gives up his credit card for the monthly "auto-buy", and then you receive $50 for each person under you, etc. plus commissions and percentages, etc. etc. etc... The problem with that is with the amount of product you must purchase in a month for the $100 auto-buy, generally you would NEVER use that much of any of this stuff in a given monthly package. So what to do, throw it out every month or give it away????

I'm sorry, but I work way too hard to throw stuff away like that, even if I made huge money on it.

Final thought - I would have had some additional tolerance with Mr. Birdsall's overall entire program, if from the beginning he was upfront with everyone and said hey, I'm with XXXX program and I'm going to put this system together to help us both. I'll grow my downline while helping you to do the same for yourself in this program. It involves a funded proposal and a typical downline structure.

Instead he touts out this "WEB 3.0" bull - which amounts to little more than a barely slightly new angle on the old web 2.0 marketing... or you can even say it's web 2.0 in disguise. There's nothing "new" about this "3.0" - it still amounts to you having to do available 2.0 marketing in order to really make some BIG dollars... because it's based in a web 2.0 downline commission system to get the "leverage" that Mr. Birdsall speaks of...

So if you accept that this is typical "web 2.0" downline building, you'll do fine, or at least you'll do what you do. But don't expect any new bells and whistles if you can't get a list together, or don't already have one in place. All that may help is a traffic rotator, with some purchased targeted traffic. You can do that yourself for a lot cheaper than what the SFS charges monthly !

I do sincerely wish all that stick with it much success in your efforts. But just like the "new web 3.0" system crappy "come on", I find it incredibly convenient that Mr. Birdsall's child suffered an almost exact "tear jerking" malady that the downline company's current owner's son did. Coincidence - possible - sales pitch - probably.

I'm sorry, I just don't like working with "sneaky" people, and that's all this is to me. It's a thinly veiled attempt to build a Web 2.0 downline, by calling it something else, ie - "web 3.0"...

Regards all...

Free Trial

I tried a free trial and became quite astonished with how this really can work for your business. I think it is safe to say, if you have the budget to acquire this service I do not believe you will fail with what they have to offer! The traffic you receive is worth trying this opportunity. They are not kidding around, you will have an immense amount of real prospects looking at what you have to offer.

Full of broken promises

I am member of Streamline Funnel System. My experience thus far has been totally negative. I started with a positive view however that has been totally diminished.

Payments were originally going to be for the period from the 1st of the month to the 30th of the month. This apparently has been changed midstream to the 1st of the month and the 10th of the month, with a 5 day grace period.

I have yet to be paid for any of this despite numerous messages left in their so called support area. I have submitted dozens of support tickets without receiving any reply. I am beginning to wonder whether it is in fact one big scam.

It is extremely frustrating not being able to get real responses or have any live help. I do not know what avenues are available in order to complain or get results.

The best MLM program I have seen

It is the only online business that guarantees you will not lose money and also pays interest on your monthly membership fee. I have been with this company for 6 weeks and I now have 11 paid members that I personally sponsored and 54 non paying members. The reason for this is that 7daywealth is a very good company to work with. The product is easy to sell. The product is money. It is a company I would recommend to everybody.

I think this is the best system on the net so far!

Many of the above posts state that The Streamline Funnel System does not live up to it’s claims. This is internet marketing! If all the systems live up to their claims, we all would be rich and not using an awesome site IM Report Card. I have been doing internet marketing for 3 years. Not one single system has live up to it’s claims yet! Or I would be a billionaire by now!

If you read all the post here, you will see a trend in the post. They start out very bad, and get better as you read them. This is a very new system, and yes it had problems at first, But they all do! As you go down the list you start seeing people are making money here, me included. If you think your going to get rich overnight you are so wrong, Not in this or any other system.

I will be honest, Is a little deceptively worded on the capture page. You are lead to believe that you are getting your link emailed to 10,000 people, But really it’s only 3333. Because you are rotated with 2 other members, Still better than any other program I have tried! I think that the only way to have any successes in the business is to pay for the upgrades. That is what I did and it has more than paid for itself many time over! You also, (like in any other business) need to do your own recruiting. At first when you look at the prices for them to promote for you, your jaw hits the key board! But when you think about it, how much money have you wasted on advertising other system? I know that the cost seem high, But when I look at my advertising budget for my other programs, It’s a small drop in the bucket!

I believe that this is going to be one of the best system on the internet if you are willing to give it the time!

I hope this helps!

Still Have A Little Faith

I joined during pre-launch. Like others have said I didn't know the fees were going to be involved, but I stayed on anyway. I also purchased a lead package to have my link blasted alone and not with other links. I have saw results, but not the results promised during launch. I have made a total of $360 since joining. Something is better than nothing I guess. You just have to have a little faith and keep at it. It's definitely not for people that are inexperienced in marketing.

Everybody fell for the lies that were told with this system

We were told that for a modest fee, we would have our links sent to 10k leads. Paul B even said for 9.95 you could broadcast to thousands of people.

Reality - 9.95 and then 39.95 3 days later. This was in small print on the acceptance page.

The whole scheme of defrauding people into thinking they have a downline when they really don't. When you signup, you are told that everyone behind you is your downline. Later to find out this is not the case. The counter is only the number of people that signup after you. They are not your downline. Again, another fraud scheme to make you believe that with this system, you are automatically building a downline.

Then there's the credibility aspect to this whole thing. Paul B during his overview callss and email autoresponder has told everyone to promote this Streamline Funnel System. For what? Not one of the Free member signup's ever gained a thing or even made money. There were tons of brainwashed people that advertised on UTube, poor souls that put their heart and soul out deceived by Paul B and his streamline funnel system. All of those people,, 20k people have moved on to other opportunities.

Stay away from Paul Birdsall (aka con-man, cheat, liar, brainwasher, rip-off artist)

He is all mouth and no action.

Very impressed Streamline Funnel System member

I join Streamline Funnel System during their pre-launch and have followed them every day since. I have reviewed videos, or Vblogs, as they called them. I have joined their forum and I have to say that they are impressing me everyday. Sure they had some problems getting every thing going, but they are working on solving problems everyday. I know they had problems with their first merchant account not being able to handle all the incoming money. Which by the way, I received the refund I was promised a few days ago. Their support ticket system is now working perfectly. I usually get a response back within a day or two because they are so busy. When it comes to making money with this system, things have just started rolling out. I currently have Four members below me, which puts me in profit now. I'm very happy with that. I have joined programs before and have not seen a profits for months or worse than that. I joined a couple of so called next big thing programs that have gone belly up. But I personally think that the Streamline Funnel System will be Awesome in the upcoming month or Two. Just be patient and you too will soon see a profit.

In Profit the First Month

I don't normally post comments, but I think this program is getting some posts that are "premature".

I joined this program early on from a recommendation of a trusted associate. Like another post here, I too don't usually join new programs out of the box, but every once in a while you need to take some reasonable risks.

I've made a profit my first month from my first set of included leads. I've spent 39.95, and I've earned 50, so I'm in the black by a buck or so.

I've been in many programs that take months if ever to turn a profit, so at a break even point the first month, I think it has potential.

The startup woes of the site are common and understandable. Oh, and to point, the support page is working now. It wasn't at the beginning, but they have been making site improvements almost daily. If you log in regularly, you will see the differences.

It will be interesting to see how next month goes.

Love It!

First to answer to some of the previous posts. No they were not prepared for the reception that SFS received that's why the changes are being made now. But I am happy to report I have made at the least $285 for my first pay out in SFS that is minus any investments made in the system. The $39.95 is the monthly ongoing fee for each of your personally enrolled members rather that be through your own advertising or your link going out $15 a month of that is paid back in commissions also. As for when you are paid out that is the 15th and the end of the month.

Totally agree there have been kinks along the way but I would much rather them be taken care of now than as in continues to grow. Get it all done now! But I love it.

I'm Cautiously Optimistic!

Paul has a good reputation, and I was referred by a Super Affiliate that I trust. The investment is modest, and you get your $9 back immediately. No, it doesn't just appear in your bank account the same day. Anyone with any experience in Internet marketing knows that there are established pay dates and minimum requirements that have to be met.

This Web 3.0 professes the ability to generate opt-in leads at a reasonable return rate. I've been in it for two weeks, have over 1,300 in my downline, but no one has purchased anything. I'm not comfortable with that return rate.

There are some positive aspects to the program, but they have their weaknesses. I believe that any successful program needs to have a strong customer support function. There are a few way to do this, but one very successful way is to have a forum. However, in order to participate in this forum, you first have to spend money. That's not good for me. I'd prefer to use a forum to ask questions, look around for problems/successes, before I put money into a program.

Another way is to sponsor an interactive Webinar, where people ask questions and get answers. Paul sponsors a T-Webinar, or whatever he calls it. It's just a broadcast on updates, problems and solutions.

Please realize, this is a program that just launched. I have broken one of my cardinal rules by joining a new program, and I'll live with that decision. If you have money to risk, and I'm not talking a lot of money, this may pay off in a big way. But, it is a risk... no doubt about it.

It is Way Too Soon To Tell

From what I read in this section of comments I found myself amazed by some people who joined up and did not become millionaires overnight and are now bad mouthing a system that I am happy to admit has tripled my investment in less than 2 weeks.

I will admit that there were some problems during the first couple of weeks like a credit card processing company that could not handle the volume of sales that left Paul frantically searching for a new credit card processor to handle everything, and a few ongoing tech problems which is normal during startup whether online or in the real world.

For the most part I am very happy with this program and would recommend it to anyone who is SERIOUS about making money online. Look for another report from me in November and I will let you know more then what I think about this system. It is truly too soon to know right now.

Not satisfied

OK, here's what I think..

I went ahead and tried the $9.95 upgrade (which was only for 3 days) then it skyrockets to $39.95 per month! They also state that you will receive $9 back, which appeared in my back office but it was never sent to my Alertpay. I guess you have to remain a member to receive the $9. In other words, pay $39.95 to receive your $9! LOL. Furthermore, trying to cancel my membership was a nightmare.. they state "submit a support ticket" to cancel your membership.. ok.. I go to submit a support ticket and guess what? There was no support ticket area! When I clicked the support button, I sent me to a Q&A. I tried emailing, even calling.. nothing. As a last resort, I had to go through the hassle of reporting my credit card lost, just so I wouldn't get billed $39.95. Unreal and stay away!

Ill Prepared Launch

This program went into full launch on 7th July 2009. It's now the 28th and all I hear are promises and technical problems due to so many sign ups. If their systems can't handle all this 12000 or so members now, how are they gonna handle all the new members in the future when memberships grow 10X or even 100X? The way they're going, how are they gonna grow at all??? I've been a member from pre launch and recruited aggressively then. But now, promises of Web 3.0 technology is looking very bleak. They've started telling us, the members, not to sit around waiting for their systems to start rolling out, and to go and recruit more members through Web 2.0 technology. They probably forgot that we joined their program so we won't have to do any Web 2.0 recruiting anymore... blah, blah, blah. I'll stick around and wait only because they owe me some commissions already, but not through Web 3.0 technology as promised. These commissions are from my own efforts in pre launch using Web 2.0 technology.

Also, a lot of people opted out after full launch, from over 33,000 members during pre launch to around 8,000 members during full launch (only grew to over 12000 because of Web 2.0 technology by members). This I believe was because they've always said it would only cost $9.95 during pre launch. When full launch came, they charged the $9.95 and said it's only good for three days and everyone has to pay $39.95 per month to stay in the system. This $39.95 per month charge was never mentioned during pre launch.

Belly Flop Heard round the World... or

Some very poor customer service and communications in the first few days caused one big name supporter "Jane M" to leave in a "I was for them before I was against them" huff. That has all been fixed.

In the past week they have posted almost daily on site member update videos by the founder Paul Birdsall and directors. They just announced a member meeting mid Sept in Las Vegas. Not exactly the actions of a fly by night.

So it's a wait and see game. If it is a scam it will be one of the most visible scams in online history. The Sept. meeting in Las Vegas should be very interesting.

My bet (I am a member) is the program will perform and produce revenue over and above what I spend with them. Sometimes I like to gamble.

Still waiting

They keep talking and promising money, but I have yet to see results. May be I will change my mind if some money starts to come in like they say it will. But so far it has been all promises. One thing is for sure. They have a lot of golden tongued orators, which is okay if everything they say is for real.

I wouldn't spend money on it.

I signed up as a free member till I found more about it. After launch, they wanted to charge me the starting fee. I stopped there because I thought there would more fees to come. These marketers all want fees to upgrade. But it all comes from the same pool of other marketers, so there's only so much to go around.

Paul B. is involved in other programs; I think it's Global Domains, where he was a top recruiter.

But I'm not going to get involved with this any longer.
