Poem called Grandma submitted to be published paid for copy have not received it more than a year
I wrote a poem for my grandmother who passed away in 2007. I sent it in for a contest hosted by White oak Press. I also bought a copy of the anthology it was suppose to be published in. I received a receit and invoice and what not. That was March 2008. Here it is October 2009 and have not received anything from them. I tried to call the company and there was no answer and no returned phone call. I am highly pissed because that was money I could have used else where and I want this taken care of. Here soon i am going to take my complaint to the police. I do not suggest anyone to White Oak Press they are full of ***.

Kiyoseki flat iron
Please read this complaint and do not buy this product! I bought this and I wish I had read the reviews first! My iron broke after about four months of use. It just suddenly wouldn't turn on any longer. As you know, this isn't an inexpensive product. I called the company to have them replace this and they said I would have to send them a check for 19.95 as well as pay shipping and handling to send them the broken one. Well as you would guess I had a problem with that because what if I did that and the next one I got broke again after the 90 day warranty period? Then I would have to give them another 40.00 for another one. I feel that I did spend a lot of money on this product and why should I have to keep ordering new ones and in the meantime be out of a flat iron for at least 4-6 weeks. This flat iron does work well but it doesn't keep working, which is a huge problem! Please, save your money and buy something that continues to work!

I got scammed too, dammit
i was taking an engish class in school and one of the assignments was to write a poem. i did and read it to the class. the teacher and students were stunned. i was surprised. i figured, hey, if they liked it wouldnt someone else? i submitted it to white oak press, poetry.com, and famous poets. i got a letter from white oak press that said my poem was so great and blah blah blah. it said i would be published in an anthology so i was pretty excited. i was on the internet today and saw them in a list of poetry scams and i deflated like a balloon. all i can say is not to be sucked in. i had enough time to get the payment stopped on the credit card but i was lucky. dont let these bastards ruin your dreams. research before you submit.

Should of investigated first
I just recieved the same letter that everyone is complaining they either got suckered into doing or what not but I have been a victim of scams and the first thing I do is look the business up in the BBB and find reviews before even considering them... may this be lesson and I'm not downing anyone because I have been a sucker too, just not in this situation... You should have been very cautious considering if they were actually publishing your work, you will recieve royalties for it.. There's no indication that you will get royalties for any sales of that book. That is the first thing that drew my attention to the scam...

What a scam
A couple of months ago i receive the same letter saying i won a contest and that White Oak Press would be publlishiing it.and Yeah i guess i got scam too Because i have not seen the book or have ever been contacted by them again.Please help me and others get our money back. It would be useful to file a lawsuit against them. IF it was not a scam how come we have not seen our books yet. they should be ashamed of what they have done to innocent teens who thought their poems would get publish in a book.

I represent White Oak Press's public relations dept. I would like to clearify our author's proof that is submitted to people that have shared with us on our website, www.poetryamerica.com. As our letter states, "White Oak Press is dedicated to promoting poetry and helping talented writers establish themsleves in the world of literature." Although we do have a contest every so often the author's proof does not mention throughout the letter of winners of our contest to anyone we submitt an author's proof to. We check for the effort and quality of the poetry we extract from our website. We filter through the works and would like to include works approved for our anthologies as nice additions to our compiled works that we put into print as a service we provide the cunsumer. If there are any concerns or questions in dealing with White Oak Press please feel free to express your concerns and we will be happy to assist you.

Book of Poem
I sent in a peom written by my daughter which I was notified would be published and I could order a copy for $24.95. I paid with a credit card and never received the book. I was ripped off. The company is called White Oak Press in Baltimore, Maryland. You send in your poem and then you get a letter asking for payment for a hardbound copy. Do not send them anything. Also, there is no phone no. or address to contact them at. I have tried to find these people and will continue until I get to bottom of it.
