		<description><![CDATA[Ken, the data is not Opt-In, he cannot provide IP addresses (he tells you in the beginning he can until you need it to unsuspend an account), he does not supply any tech support and some of us have busy jobs where we cannot sit in his webinars every day to get a question answered.  And, finally, the data is FULL of spam traps.  I have been back and forth with Spamhaus to get removed from a blacklist and they advised me that dormant addresses are turned into spam traps and we hit a lot of them.  He does not clean his data, even though he says he does, and he does not verify it.  The program, he says, will verify it for you.  That is totally impossible because the only way you can verify an email address is to send it to the recipient or call and ask.  His suggestions on how to make the program work for you are exactly what the Can-Spam Act advises NOT to do.  His lack of support for a customer who spent a lot of money on his product goes to show what kind of person he really is.  He never answers a direct question, instead he tries to b.s. you with something else.  Example Email:  &quot;Hey Al, haven&#039;t heard back from you, did the b2b data ever get back from being cleaned and verified like you said a few weeks ago? This is holding up our campaign...&quot;  &quot;His response &quot;Brand new data coming in Saturday!!!!&quot;  A few more weeks will go by and you ask again if the data has ever been cleaned and verified and was the new data added in and was that cleaned and verified...his response, he copies a bunch of random people you don&#039;t know on the email and says yes, they came in but no email addresses. I have a great texter program!!!!  
During the height of our frustrations of not being able to get answers or support from him, we asked for references of people who use this program.  Of course, the references came directly from him and we had the pleasure of viewing their correspondence with each other on how great the program was.  Problem with that.....I found a reference on my own that was not suggested by Al and the gentleman I spoke to seemed to have the same exact problem as we were having and was not getting calls back and his emails were never responded to.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[i downloaded the demo software and it worked perfectly...I can&#039;t believe they give it away for free with a data purchase.  
I have bought data before from online sites and its been crap-and customer service was non existent.  These guys are around every day on their daily webinars and that&#039;s been real helpful for me.]]></description>
