I spoke with Mr. Anderson in September about acquiring rights to a piece of intellectual property…read more I simply needed him to research and inform me of who the current owner of those rights were. After a very friendly conversation in which Mr. Anderson walked me through the process, I contacted him the following day to pay him and get the ball rolling. The first red flag was that he wanted me to send the money via PayPal labeled as a "gift" so he wouldn't incur any PayPal fees. I felt that a tad sketchy but then I brushed it off, "he's doing the work for me, I'll pay the small fee." The following day Mr.Anderson requested more money because he "need(ed) to pay a bill." I still have this text message exchange. I sent him more funds but not before he again asked me to send it as a "gift" and not payment for services. This time I stood my ground - I was paying him for services and I wanted the record to reflect that. So I again sent PayPal payment to his assistant via PayPal. (The exact same process as the first time however labeled as payment for services, not a "gift"). I'd needed the aforementioned information from Mr. Anderson for an October 5th meeting, a fact that he was made aware of when we spoke mid-September. My first correspondence with him after paying him was to set up a time to discuss his findings over the phone. This was approximately two weeks after paying him to simply browse through pre-1977 copyright records. We set a date and time which I had to reschedule for the following day. When I called him at the set time I received no answer. Later I emailed him and he responded that he'd missed me because he was busy. No problem, I assured him. I asked that he call me back. That was two months ago. It is now December 5 and after sending numerous emails, the first few of which politely asked him to update me on the status of his findings, the latter few of which politely asked for a refund of my money, I have yet to hear from Mr. Anderson. Keep in mind that even after I'd attended my meeting without the pertinent information I'd paid Mr. Anderson to obtain, I was still willing to pay him if he simply provided me with the information. As time went on, however, this became unacceptable so I requested a full refund, still in a very polite and understanding fashion. When I try to get a refund via PayPal directly, I'm told I can only be refunded the portion I paid him the second time when against his wishes, I sent it as "payment for services". Being that the first payment was the largest amount and now I have no PayPal recourse, I cannot help but wonder if Mr.Anderson deliberately asked me to send the money as a gift so should he duck and dodge me, I would have to take him to small claims court to retrieve my funds. This of course is a slightly larger hassle than clicking a few buttons on PayPal and most people would walk away. A principled person, however, would not. Still, wanting to avoid this, I again left Mr. Anderson a polite message within the last 30 minutes asking him to call me "so that we may amicably rectify this situation." What is most disturbing is that my email client informs me when people open my emails. I've sent Mr. Anderson two emails and left two voicemail messages for him (all polite) this week alone. He has read both of my emails literally within minutes of receiving them, yet has lacked the professionalism to return either call or email to sort this situation out. After our very friendly and informative conversations prior to this event, I am saddened that things suddenly took this unforeseen turn.

I was in need of a new website for yearsssss and then I met Daniel and his team and they turned it around so fast that before I knew it, I had a professional page that was easy to navigate and really pretty. :) And speaking of professionalism, Daniel is top notch. He has a great way of explaining what is needed in a way that didn't make me feel like an idiot (remember I don't speak the language). They all put up with my multiple edits and revisions and made all changes quickly. Also, their prices are more than reasonable if not better than their competitors.

With so many website companies out there I had no idea who to hire to build a website for me. In short, I was refereed to Qarismatic from a friend. After hearing about there process and speaking with Daniel and his experience, I decided to take a chance. What a great decision that was. We now have a really nice professional looking website. I thought the process was going to take a long time and be very time consuming, but after sitting down and talking about my vision and goals for the website the staff at Qurismatic took over from there. I had to make approvals and some edits, but for the most part they took care of everything. I am really happy with the site and the support given from Qarismatic. Not only did they build the site but they help me out with ideas on how to be more effective at advertising on the web (Youtube). Can't thank Daniel and the Staff at Qarismatic enough for the help they have given me and my company.
