While we don't verify specific claims because reviewers' opinions are their own, we may label reviews as "Verified" when we can confirm a business interaction took place. Read more
To protect platform integrity, every review on our platform—verified or not—is screened by our 24/7 automated software.

I am really impressed that I want to recognised as one of Britains best businesses as I have 4/5 star reviews on Google. I haven't even had a review on google yet as i have not long started up for the business that they are potentially giving me an award for. Thank you so much for recognising my skills and talent before it has been verified by the general public!!! DO NOT RESPOND TO THOSE EMAILS, THEY ARE A SCAM!! This is not the first time one of my businesses has been recognised by organisations such as this... they are all scammers. Have a good day sending trash like this to your email bin. :)
They just want paying. Not a reputable company showcasing business, they just want money.
I had an unsolicited email saying they wanted to list my business on their site but it turns out they wanted paying £299. There was no assessment or anything they just wanted money for the listing so not a reputable business at all.

Received an unsolicited email saying we’d won an award. Checked Trustpilot to confirm that these people are scammers.
They want payment for the award, and to be featured on their social media.
Avoid
Fake
Fake . Fake . Thank you Trustpilot and all the previous reviews to contribute. Big thanks everyone.
Thank you Trustpilot
Thank you Trustpilot! If it wasn’t for you I would have taken them seriously! The email looked good, social media looked fake but I wasn’t sure.
Still sending out scam spam
In October 2024 I left a 1* review about the spam from GBBRB sending things from an @gbbrbregistrar.org email account. Today I've had spam from an @gbbrbaccredit.co.uk email account. The same spam/scam rubbish.
I don't think they need another review…
I don't think they need another review to highlight how scammy they are, but here it is. I came straight to Trustpilot when I got the email and my suspicions were correct! - Don't give them your money!
Another vote for this dodgy outfit
Another vote for this dodgy outfit. Email flattering me and my business out of the blue! Got to be a scam.
This is what I was sent.

Scam
Scam. Everyone please stay away from them And honestly don't purchase their services.
Scam co. How ironic!!
How ironic! A company claiming to be targeting ligitimate 4/5 star review companies only to be a SCAM one themselves!
There are so some very very low individuals walking our earth. Thanks for other reviews. It took me one click to find you! Stay safe all and away from all this trouble. I’ve emailed them back and shared all the reviews and told them I’ll report them.
Please all do the same!
I'm glad I checked the reviews now.

Proper scam company just after your cash.
Don't bother with their fake award.
scam email GBBRG
received an email this morning from an Olivia at GBBRB and looked fake, checked it out on a few places and it is. Nice thought but . . . no thank you.
Thank god for trustpilot
Thank god for trustpilot! when being contacted by email and checking out their social media with 40,000 followers. Every post for every business has more or less exactly 1000 likes from rogue / fake accounts. Suspect all paid for to make them look legit. Asked to pay for an award for having over 4 stars on google
Scammers after your money!
As all of the above - Very persistent emails from Olivia about GBBRB Best Businesses in Britain 2024 and how we have been specially chosen!! Blah Blah Then they want you to pay for membership! Thought I would check on here and Hey Presto as expected a scam.
As an update - still getting messages from this sham business and to reiterate another response on here you DO NOT need to pay for fake reviews and insta followers! A steady gain of honest reviews and real people following you is worth far more!!
Scam
Scam. Like those awards companies that charge you for “winning” something.

Endless spam emails from a company that say a 4* rating on Google and £299 could get me linked on their Instagram page.
A total nuisance and quite clearly a brand of no value.
