Contact Auction com Support

This app and company are a fraud!!! They said there NO BUYERS Premium, but that is not true!!! Let me explain to you how they make money by screwing you over! They are automatically bidding against you on every auction to drive up the prices. Once the bid amount get close to the secret reserve amount ( for example $139K and this is a educated guess because I have done my research on the property) and my current bid is at $125k, they will come in at and increase bid up to $136k. This put me in a bad spot, because the bid increments are only in $10k, so if I bid again, I will have to go to $146k. They only have to collect the $139K to satisfy the bank, so they get to pocket the extra $7K for their “services” even though they claim not to charge BUYERS PREMIUM! This company is extra deceptive!!! BE AWARE!!!

My experience with this app was absolutely dreadful. I registered to bid on a house which resulted in a $2500 holding fee in which I couldn’t get back until the Saturday after the auction ends. I never got it back and had to wait until the following Monday when they were open to call customer service. Customer service informed me that they sent the money and that “it was an issue with my bank”. I called my bank right after that and they told me that I never got my money back. So I’m currently filing a dispute. I’m just very stressed out, disappointed, and disgusted.

There has been a house with a resale value of $225 K if repaired . This house is just sitting and getting more and more in disrepair . Nobody has won the bid because apparently knuckle heads at bank thinks it’s going to be worth more the longer it sits . House isn’t worth more than 75K and I have seen the winning bid go over 100 K . This house has been on this site for over a year . This app should require a opening bid so that people don’t waste their time with bankers that could care less how bad of shape they let these houses get that could be someone’s home .
