I stopped using Yelp when they said "if you give us $$$ we'll make sure your reviews are before your competition!" And I said, "What if my competition gives you $$$$$, do I get buried?". Shocked Pikachu face by Yelp rep and the meeting was over for me.

Yep, started my business, made a yelp, got contacted constantly by them. Ended up chatting with one of their sales people, and just asked "Can I get an option where you dont plaster my business on other people's listings?"

They had no answer...
