In addition, there are plenty of local directories such as Yelp, YellowPages.com, Merchant Circle, and Google+ Local that you can use to post business reviews, but these would only work if you can find the business listed on them.
Most often, you can leave anonymous reviews on these sites and the only thing required may be a valid email address. This unfortunately makes it hard for business to track down the actual posters. In our opinion, it is not a good or ethical practice to leave anonymous reviews. If you were really screwed by a business, then use at least your real first name and last name’s initial so there is a way for the business owner to know who you are and try to reach out to you to offer you a resolution or refund.
