I do not get it

I have published my book with United p.c a year ago and till now they do not even care about me no calls no discussing nothing at all and the problem is that I see that my novel is being sold but believe it or not they still writing on my dashbaord that it has not been sold at all, so that is something very strange or very clear.

Hi Bekhat,

United p.c is a vanity publisher, stay away from them. I was approached and requested to pay few thousands pounds to get my book published. If you google vanity publishers you'll get lots of information and please do check out the link below.

This from the Advertising Standards Agency in 2015.

Hope this helps.

Good luck.

I'm afraid it doesn't look like good news for you.
