Coses1991 Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 SC5 is a rip off. Do not use SC5 (based in Finland - SC5.io) for your web development needs. I hired SC5 to develop my HTML5 website. A programmer named Martti Malmi contacted me and provided a list of services they could provide me at a reasonable cost. I had PSD files and was looking for someone to slice them into HTML5 and CSS3 for my website. He promised to get this done in a three-month time frame.Martti Malmi offered me a $1295 a month package for full time development (6 hours a day 5 days a week). I was promised a three-day trial period where I could evaluate how things worked and then I would be expected to pay the month up front.? As soon as I agreed to hire them they told me I had to pay immediately in order for work to start. They sent me a contract agreement that required 30-days notice to cancel services.Trouble started once I had paid them money. Almost all communication ceased. I would send them files and information and only get a reply telling me they had received it. Contrary to their promises I never received an update email. Nor did I ever communicate with the developer. At this point, it is the end of the second month and I have not received any update or heard anything from them. The last two weeks that I paid for were essentially stolen from me.The site I have is full of bugs, is coded poorly, and isn?t even according to the specs I asked for. It allows over 1 GB of data to get dumped on a user's PC every 16 seconds which seems to be a loophole on other sites they have developed for the clients listed on their website; Veikkaus, POP Vakuutus and F-Secure.SC5 quoted me three-months for my entire project and after two months I have some poorly coded HTML5. It has been one long headache filled with poor communication practices, poor quality work, and a very incomplete site as a result. Not only is SC5 making false promises with what they say they can do for you, they are also a very unprofessional company to work with. Hire at your own risk!!!!

El Pibe Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 Is Martti Malmi some sort of new amusing internet meme?I'm not sure I get it, though doubtless it's hilarious.

woodrot Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 phew, that was a close shave. I was just about to use Marrti for all my HTML5 and PSD needs. and maybe some PCP and LSD as well but now I have seen the light and wont be using him any more. a lucky escape for me.
