Nick,

They do advertise and send out gloosy info.

However I think the chances of you getting a return on your investment are very small.

Yell is cheaper and at least your get some response.

Cheers,

Doug

Had a call from Ufind US .com.

Salesman thought I was not taking him seriously.

I could use other words.  In fact he was very rude, then hing up/

they sent me a copy of the mag from Essex (i think it was the first area in the country) and my wife rang a c/c  advertising in it and they said they had not had a call in 8 months - like all advertising you should allways ring up firms in it and get their opinion and not the guys selling it - our quote was for about £1800  so they might of reduced their prices (not sure of size of ad)
