While we don't verify specific claims because reviewers' opinions are their own, we may label reviews as "Verified" when we can confirm a business interaction took place. Read more
To protect platform integrity, every review on our platform—verified or not—is screened by our 24/7 automated software. This technology is designed to identify and remove content that breaches our guidelines, including reviews that are not based on a genuine experience. We recognise we may not catch everything, and you can flag anything you think we may have missed. Read more
A man is talking on the phone at an unfollowable pace, asking if my name, address, and place of residence are correct (just the basic information from the Chamber of Commerce). Then I received an invoice for €478 that must be paid within a week. If I object to that invoice, they sent a threat and added the interests of 15%.

I DID NOT PAY, AND NOT GOING TO A*SHOLES
I was trying to find out about a KvK and my Internet search lead me to bedrijvenregister. I paid 19.95 for a PDF of the information, but the website hung, the PDF was never displayed, and I was never emailed the PDF. I filled in the contact form on the website twice.
As I heard nothing from bedrijvenregister, the following day:
I reported the fraud at fraudehelpdesk.
I reported the fraud to the online payment system iDEAL.
Several hours later I was refunded my 19.95. This may have been the result of action taken by iDEAL, who obviously need to protect the trust consumers place in their platform.
I now realize I should have simply gone to kvk to get the information I needed.
Scammers
