Web form not activated? So why are you advertising it?

Opportunity: Make sure you can deliver on what you’re advertising!
Some of you asked if Sprint Taxi’s online ordering form worked out. I was very excited when I found it; however, when I tried to order a taxi, nothing happened. Nothing whatsoever.
So I called the receptionist today and chatted with her a little. She told me the form hasn’t been activated yet, and had no idea when it would be!
Amazing! I had heard about Sprint Taxi’s online form on a radio advertisement (while in a Meridan taxi, for full irony). These people are probably spending serious money to advertise something that’s nonexistent.
For this and other companies, simply checking that their marketing and advertisements promote services that can actually be delivered would go a long way towards a more profitable business.

I can’t believe they’d actually advertise something that’s not working!

reminds me of the Seinfeld episode where he complains to the rental car agency that…they are very good at taking a reservation…but they aren’t very good at KEEPING a reservation.

Today I saw another sample of advertisement pointing to an inexistent webpage: in Unirii Square, a banner promoting services that will “create a firm for you in 3 days, costing you 600 RON” (less than 200 euros). A website was listed for contact - infiintarefirma.ro/ - but the webpage is not yet active!

Seems they invented “fail per click” advertising.
