Do Not Trust Shady Companies: 'Yelp' And 'Trustpilot'

I am sick and tired of these shady websites and companies like Trustpilot and Yelp, who censure user content. You're not allowed to tell the truth about a company. Only upbeat kiss-ass reviews are permitted. I wish I could put these unethical companies out of business permanently!

I hate Trustpilot, Yelp and other shady websites that censor user content.

The Dark Side of Trustpilot - Can It Really Be Trusted?

Hell no, you cannot trust Trustpilot. On the 'Choice Community' website, they expose the corruptness of Trustpilot's bogus and unfair review process. ...
On Trustpilot, If you go through Youi insurance you will see thousands of reviews. That on the surface gives it a great trust pilot rating. But if you look most are single person reviewers giving a 5* rating for the amazing experience they had. That drown out lots of single star reviews complaining about the poor level of service when they try to make a claim.

Only a fool would trust Trustpilot or Yelp for accurate reviews.

The following negative review I posted of Smyrna Baptist Church in Pensacola was buried by Yelp in September of 2024. Unless you go diligently searching for my review, you won't see it. And worse, Yelp refused to include my review in its ratings. If they were honest, Smyrna Baptist Church's rating should have dropped a star, but Yelp are dishonest people. Ironically, if you go to Yelp and search for 'Smyrna Baptist Church in Pensacola,' you'll see my photo (of me holding a Deering Golden Wreath banjo). Yelp is using my photo, but refuses to post my review with the other posts, because they didn't like what I wrote. Read my post for yourself...
I DO NOT recommend this church. The Pastor woefully lacks personal concern and compassion for people. I attended the church for several months but the senior pastor never welcomed me. When I shared my broken life with him, he never offered to pray with me. He didn't care. The senior pastor has denim without lace, strength without beauty, toughness without love.

I believe the church is always 85% empty because of their bad attitudes and the horrible way that they mistreat people. When I kindly asked for some water to drink at their Memorial Day movie, the pastor's wife rudely asked me why didn't I get something to drink outside at their earlier picnic. I almost walked out the door. It matters how you treat people.

I am so hurt, disgusted and disappointed with their senior pastor. I DO NOT recommend this horrible place to anybody, unless you want to play church three times a week, and be part of a superficial cult that preaches Lordship Salvation. The church uses Chick Tracts which pervert the true meaning of repentance, requiring you to be willing to forsake sinful bad habits to go to Heaven. That is not a free grace Gospel.

People just want to be loved. The way that you treat people matters, it really does. Positions are temporary, ranks and titles are limited, but the way you treat people will always be remembered.

Also, the Smyrna church auditorium literally smells like a cheap musty hotel. It was offensive to my nose. I don't know if it is the carpeting or what, but it smells bad. My nose did adjust to it some over time, but the smell didn't go away. First impressions are lasting impressions.

RUN from Smyrna Baptist Church!
Thank you for reading.
Dear reader, there is absolutely nothing wrong with my negative review of that crappy church cult. Yelp are in cahoots with bad businesses and bad churches, protecting them instead of posting honest reviews! Why the hell is my banjo photo still there on Yelp, since they refuse to allow my post? Unreal. These ungodly people are incompetent! They're like irresponsible children at Yelp and Trustpilot.

Today, December 23, 2025, I tried to post my honest review of Cox, but Trustpilot rejected my post because the content offended them. I didn't think to save the post, but it essentially said that I am offended COX is airing 100% Spanish commercials in the United States where we officially speak English! Trustpilot emailed me to say that they couldn't post my review because it violated their sensitivity policy to minority groups. WTF?

According to DuckDuckGo's Search Assistant when I searched for “COX reviews,” it reads:
Cox Communications has received numerous negative reviews from customers, often citing poor customer service, unexpected charges, and billing issues. Many users express frustration with the company's service reliability and communication.
That's all besides the point, this blog is about Yelp and Trustpilot, which I DO NOT recommend to anyone!!! I hate these shady, unethical and dishonest companies who censor the truth about bad companies and churches. I am greatly offended as a natural-born American consumer that COX airs their damn commercials in 100% Spanish, so that as an American I cannot understand a word of it. That really offends me and I have every right to be upset with COX and YouTube for permitting it! Truly, the LOVE OF MONEY is the root of all evil as the inspired Holy Bible warns in 1st Timothy 6:10-11. SHAME on Trustpilot for rejecting my honest post about COX as a consumer. I am now giving Trustpilot a bunch of negative reviews as well!
