Incompetent and dishonest amateurs
I contacted Kbookpublishing to provide all necessary services to publish and market a Childrens book These were the services listed on the 1 200 invoice Editing Proofreading Formatting Book Cover designs Publishing on Amazon Kindle ISBN registration 100 ownership rights Book distribution EBook Paperback Hard Cover Social Media Marketing Facebook Twitter Instagram 100 000 viewership engagement guaranteed Pre-Sales booking Campaigns I provided them a rough layout I was told that it would take 1-2 weeks max to publish I was contacted initially by A informing me that he would be overseeing my project A few days later I was contacted by R who informed me that he would be overseeing my project This was a worrying start R then asked me for my cover design I informed him that I had paid for the cover design to be carried out by Kbook He told me that it was helpful to have a call to clear these matters up Surely reading the invoice showing the service contracted for would have been simpler I then waited 3 weeks and after some prodding I received a replication of the initial layout I had provided I complained and R wrote to me saying I just went through you email and i apologize for the experience that you have experienced so far but i assure you that you complains will be catered completely which hardly filled me with hope as to the editing skills of the team R then phoned and asked me what suggestions I had I told him that I was hiring Kbook to carry out the formatting not to seek suggestions from me He reluctantly agreed to provide me a fully formatted version 1 week later although he failed to explain why it would take this amount of time At the end of the week rather than a fully formatted version I received 4 pages of amateur rubbish that looked like it had been prepared by a high school student of extremely modest abilities I then informed Kbook that I had lost faith and demanded a refund to which he failed to respond I contacted a provider on Fiverr who carried out the needed work in 24 hours at less than a tenth of the price As far as I can make out Kbook s business model consists of charging an exorbitant fee for non-existent project management and then outsource the work to an equally inept stable of subcontractors This is not company to trust your work to NB Kbookpublishing also dishonestly refused my refund request for the 1 200 made to Paypal on the basis that the service had been provided when in truth not even one of the services had been provided

Bait and Switch
Bait and Switch I payed months ago for 10 comic book pages to be commissioned After agonizingly going back and forth with Randy Gibson and his team refusing to follow the simplest of instructions I finally get a subpar finished product after 4 times the promised delivery time and now they refuse to remove their watermark and are trying to gouge me for more money meanwhile holding my project hostage

What a mess
I tried Kbook publishing for my book Looking for the King When I sent them my manuscript it came back nicely formatted That made it easy to find errors and correct them Then we got to the cover art Almost three months later I was able to get something sort of OK out of them Their artist seems to be a graduate of the Mad Magazine Manga School of Comic Books Then they hit me up with other things they need from They were legitimate Things like a synopsis OK fine But they could have told me this while we were waiting on the artwork instead of dragging it out They were unresponsive to emails and calls Then they wanted me to sign up and pay for their Promotional Package There were several to choose from Just send money When I told then I first wanted to see the finished product they sent me the FINAL edit It was completely botched up Sentences and conversations were run together There were huge gaps of blank pages Oh you re not using the same program we are but it will be fine in the final product Keep in mind that the first formatted copy came through with no issue At my insistence we went through it line by line to correct it It came back corrected but with the same issues in other locations We went through it again with their professional editor Same result It was clear that unless I signed up for their marketing package they would not correct their errors I spent almost TEN months going back and forth with these charlatans A friend who self published on Amazon offered to help It was up in two weeks nicely edited and formatted I can t describe just how frustrating and depressing it was to try to deal with their deliberate obstructionism I give them a ZERO star rating
