Also WebsiteStartups.co.uk

Also operating under the name WebsiteStartups.co.uk, delivered absolutely nothing within the promised timeframe and stoped responding to messages.

Do your own research

Google has all the answers! V bad customer service! Low quality websites along with cloned/copied content and poor training. Do your own research!

I paid in November 2017 and have had emails exchanged and assured work will be done but still seen nothing.
Despite numerous emails and messages I am still to get the product fully activated. It may be due to a virtual sale that follow ups are easy to ignore by this company and unfortunately website does not work even despite assurances. I would not like to work in this way.

I paid up in February 2018 and have had intermittent promises but still seen no product so now out of patience.
Despite numerous email, phone messages & SMS chasers I've only had the occasional 'finish this weekend' and last on 26th March saying "If not finished by Sunday I'll refund", no further responses to my follow ups.

I don't know if the product is any good as I haven't seen it, just don't part with any money and don't trust any promises

Apologies for the delays (mainly due to staff leaving and restructuring). The website has been handed over and we are awaiting Steve to respond to request for his feedback so we can make amendments if required. Thanks

Beware - Do not trust him!!

Don’t believe the fake reviews. I ordered a website in January which should have taken no more than a week apparently, it still hasn’t been delivered in May with Chris giving excuse after excuse.

Lots of deadlines missed without much explanation. He even had the temerity to refuse a refund.

OK, so here's the latest update. My order was placed January 28th, we are now heading towards late April. Chris produced a site in early April with some very basic errors, images not loading, hyperlinks not working, no particular order to shopping pages. On April 12th Chris said he would look over the updates that I had to collate for him, over the "next couple of days". I have chased twice, 20th April and today 23rd. Still no reply from Chris.
This is the main issue with him. Takes your money then no responsibility of timeline or workmanship after that..... extremely poor service.

Update 23/04 12:12 - email from Chris sarcastically thanking me for the sh** comment on trust pilot and to tell me that he has not gotten around to the changes yet. He also comments that I expect the world for £550. Wow! You mean the £550 paid in January for a job that would apparently take a week and then being ignored when I ask for a progress update.... Wow again!

Update 02/05 11:12 - Last week Chris told me he would look to update my site and fix the issues at the end of the week. I have sent three emails asking for an update - no reply. Basically after placing an order in January, 3 and a bit months later I have a site that doesn't work properly so I cannot promote it. He ignores all contact so I am resigned, after all this time to be ripped off. I will start looking at legal measures.

Do not believe the sales pitch! Avoid at all cost!

Steer clear...

I apologise for the lateness of the website, after the order on 28th January we were able to deliver a similar site in February to the one advertised however this wasn't to satisfaction. Since then we have had further delays but have since delivered the website and barring some tweaks and amendments, Rob has expressed that the website looks good so we continue to work on getting to the customers standard. Hopefully soon this review will be updated accordingly with all of the events.

Chris has been really helpful!

Chris has been really helpful. He has created a really good affiliate travel website for me and has fixed major errors that were accidentally caused on my end. I can't thank him enough!

Chris and Jordan are both experts with affiliate website's. I would recommend you approach them first, they know what they are talking about.

Chris has been really honest throughout my journey with him.

I am now at the marketing phase of My Holiday Pick, although challenging, I can see it working really well.

I would say, OSA is a reliable company. There's not that many affiliate companies out there who specialise in making good affiliate website's. These websites are not generic like cheap one's sold elsewhere. You can definitely customise them to create a niche and bespoke service for your clients.

Look forward to the challenges ahead. You need to work to make the business work. Hard work and patients definitely pays off.

Thanks Chris, Jordan and OSA Team.

Good website, has potential, nice team

It has been 3 months since I engaged with online success academy and the experience has been pretty good. Opting for a travel based website I requested quite a lot of additional spec which led to a slower delivery but I was still given a working website as I had briefed within 3 weeks, originally quote a week.

There were various claims of earning potential, anywhere from £350 to £1000 per month. I was sceptical but seen many successful affiliate websites online and was aiming to at least get my investment back within 2 months.

In reality £400 in 2 months so not quite. But prospects are improving the more traffic I drive to the website. Some of the advertisers aren't so great but I've been able to follow the training to find others.

Dealng with the staff was pleasant, the developer was very good at handling my requests and support has been ok, sometimes a bit slow.

Overall good package, slow service, mostly positive

I have been browsing businesses for sale on the itnernet for over a year and it has been pretty tough to choose what type of business to go for and then fund the venture. I decided upon an online business but my budget is very limited.

Online success academy are one of several companies offering various online business packages and set up services. I chose them to set up a business for me offering different retail products across 3 websites, in home furniture, sports and travel industries.

I had to pay all of the set up fee in advance, which I was very wary of due to the varying reviews and reports found online regarding osa. But, Chris came across as very genuine and made it clear that the cost is to set up the websites and provide training, the success was very much down to me.

After 3 weeks (initially stated 2 week delivery) my websites were handed over. Wasn't initially 100% happy but was able to get things as i liked them after a week of communication with the web developer Jordaan.

So, having had my websites live for over a month now, I've made £83 in profit by following the training and session in which I was shown how to get traffic from Facebook groups.

I've been putting in around 12 hours work per week, but a lot of time has been spent getting used to the website admin area and also the affiliate dashboard. I'm pleased with results so far and I'm looking forward to advancing my knowledge and investing more time into this.

Only 4 star review as communication is very sketchy but ultimately I am satisfied.

Brilliant Website

They asked me to write a review of online success academy, I bought a website from them last August. My website has lots of furniture products on it and a shop which is brilliant. I think the service has been professional and I will surely buy more websites from them in the future. I would definitely recommend the online success academy to anybody that needs to start their business on the internet.
