Allweb Leads

[Bob Klee]

Owned by Bankrate. Don't need to try them, they suck.

They are not a Bankrate.com company. AllWebLeads bought Insuranceleads.com a few years ago & while it has investors involved, it is privately held & not part of Bankrate.com

The main Bankrate.com companies are: NetQuote, InsureMe, Insweb/AgentInsider.

Folks,
They are based in Austin & IMHO, they do a pretty decent job. We don't see eye to eye on some things, but I do like most of their folks I've met. I'd like the folks that say "XYZ" company "sucks" to start giving a bit of content as to why "they suck."

Did you try 100 leads? Did they not give you credit for the bad leads? Was it because you could not close the deal? Why did they "suck?"

If you only bought 10 leads then I'm sorry, IMHO, you don't have enough data to make a good decision. If you tried them over a year ago, then again, give us the details but IMO, that is not a recent enough experience as fast as things change in this business/industry.

It is so easy to cast stones anonymously & as you know from your own business experience, more people complain [the 5% that don't like you for whatever reason] than the 95% of folks that love you but never say a word:(

Anyway, knowing the "why" helps everyone much more than saying "stay away" or "they suck."

My opinion & a buck, unfortunately, won't buy you a cup of coffee at Starbucks!

Bob I am one of your loyal customers. They are about 3 times worse than you for auto. Their pricing with bids has no integrity. I tried more than 100 leads. Their contact rate was worse than most. You know I have tried everyone. Their return policy is flawed. Their live transfers were mostly forced and callers had heavy accents. They stink. Yours are the best so far. I always tell the truth.

Bob,


I guess I am mistaken. Their leads were so bad, and with the look of their website, I just assumed they were bankrate. I actually received numerous leads that I had already received from bankrate companies as well. I will say that your leads are the best quality, although when we tried you out customer service was a major issue. Unfortunately, my boss does not think the price is worth it, mainly because we are captive and are not usually competitive with rates. I would definitely recommend HTQ though.

I have purchased leads from AWL since they bought out leadsclearance.com. From the beginning their leads at $25-35 per annuity lead were of less quality than leadsclearance.com. Recently, the leads are garbage status. I would not recommend purchasing their annuity leads. Just no quality. You have to fight for the credits with their customer service, so it just became too much of a hassle to fight through the junk leads, take time to request denied lead credits to make it worthwile to use them.

Allwebleads is the lowest of the low. Horrible recycled leads, if you can even call them leads. I've used lots of different companies, and these clowns are by far the worst. Not only are their leads garbage, but their account managers are even worse. They have a bad attitude and frankly don't care about whether you use them or not. Their credit rate is the worst I've ever had, right behind Agent Insider.

I no longer use them... In fact, I am moving away from internet leads altogether. Currently I use NetQuote, which are decent when you consider that they credit 80% of what I request - no other company comes close.

There is no doubt that all of these companies quality varies, so you have to keep that in mind. I spent thousands with AWL and it was a total waste of money and such a horrible experience.

Does anyone know how to use pay per click? From what I have heard if you know how to use it, the leads are better. You just have to be careful not to get taken.
Still looking into it. Any advice?
