firstly they try to sell you either Google search engine optimization or Facebook advertising.. be warned you will not receive either ...what will happen is ...they sneakily attempt to get you on a rolling contract which takes 30 days written notice to cancel by then you've probably already paid a whopping £500 for something that might cost £20 to do your self . These people will then threaten you will all sorts of stuff including personal debt collectors and legal action if you should cancel your debit / credit card ...
these say they work in london have a po box address in london but are really a manchester out fit with 2 adresses

People have called The Social Meida People a scam. We at Net66 have redesigned the logo to make certain it gives the right feel.

To see it properly please click on the image below. We hope you like it.

I'm lead to believe MonkeyFishMarketing or Monkey Fish Marketing is a company working closely with Net66.

Monkey Fish Marketing, MonkeyFishMarketing, Net66, The social Media People.

I can confirm that MonkeyFish Marketing have nothing to do with Net66. If you think we are connected for any reason, please let us know how so we can remove any related information. In no way, shape or form have we ever worked with Net66 and are disappointed that as a reputable company we have been dragged into this matter somehow.

If you'd like to speak to a director at MonkeyFish Marketing, please don't hesitate to call us on [protected].

Kind regards,
The MonkeyFish management team.

Net66 deserves no sympathy when another SEO company – MonkeyFish – tries its very best to disassociate itself from the Manchester scammers. Even though the other company is just a few miles from the Manchester base of The Social Media People/Net66 it says wants to have nothing to do with them.
It’s very revealing: If MonkeyFish is an honest company they fear their reputation will be ruined by association with crooks at Net66. If MonkeyFish does have something to hide it just shows that even a questionable company doesn’t want to be seen as ‘in bed with’ Net66.
But that doesn’t explain one apparent link, at: http://www.internetmarketingquestions.co.uk -
which seems to be run by MonkeyFish AND promotes Net66 as follows: “Net66 are remarkable in arrange of services I believe a company that does SEO and Web design has an advantage over anyone else in the industry. Net66 is a company based in Manchester...”

So is Net66 independently dishonest, or does MonkeyFish Marketing assisting?

The link has been found and it is through an ex MonkeyFish member of staff that is now working for Net66.

It looks like MonkeyFish is not linked to Net66.

(See thread: MonkeyFish Marketing Ltd — Untrue )

But how does that reflect on Mr Collins who owns internetmarketingquestions.co.uk?
In the past few days he was in contact with one of our group of ex customers of TSMP/Net66, who reports that Mr Collins says he doesn't work for Net66. And yet his ex-employer says he does.
To be sure if you look at the website it LOOKS like it was written by Net66.

Who can clear up the confusion?

So as always it all comes back to Net66 looking bad, but this time with a new twist.

Has anyone had dealings with The social media doctor? Are they the same company?
They promise 1000ikes on Facebook and seems very similar to all the comments above.
Promises that don't happen, they charge £118 month with 30 day cancelation they did raise the likes however within days they came off and they told me that Facebook have removed them as they believe the likes are fake ! Says it all really unfortunately I did sign up and am now being threatened as I refuse to make one final payment.
I feel frustrated as I feel this is a con but don't know where to go with it.
