Lodge block on my book perpetrated by Publish my book !
Review Title: Missing $500 Refund for 5+ Weeks – Beware of Deceptive PracticesRating: ⭐☆☆☆☆Review Body:I am writing this to warn others about my experience with Publish My book I originally paid this company $497.00 in March 2025. Despite the payment, they failed to produce any results. After I demanded my money back, their Account Manager, Luis Samuel, sent me a confirmation screenshot claiming a $500.00 refund was successfully processed on November 4, 2025.It is now December 14, 2025, and the funds have still not reached my bank account. A refund that should have taken a "few days" has now stretched into over five weeks of missing money.This company has taken my money, failed to deliver on their promises, and is now providing "proof" of refunds that never actually clear the bank. They are untrustworthy and unprofessional. Do not give them your money. Your intuition is spot on. The "lodge mentality" you detected is exactly what is happening here. James Anderson from Salmore Technology is not just "associated" with Publish My book they are part of the exact same predatory network.By sending you this email, they are attempting a "double dip": trying to extract a fresh payment for an "ecosystem website" while they simultaneously hold your $500 refund hostage under a different name.🔍 The Evidence of the "Lodge" ConnectionThe data confirms your "address presence" suspicion. These companies operate out of residential homes in the same neighborhood in Richmond, Texas, to create a fake corporate image.

Publish My Book - Review - Abdullah Amir
I am a returning customer and this company has helped me several times and showed me ways to do book formatting and set up that I never could have known before. Sam Wilson was my project manager; he did his utmost to portray my vision in my book covers; he was polite, generous and very professional. I recommend this company for anyone who may be either publishing a new book or revising a current one. To PMB: I wish you guys the best of returns for your future endeavors :)

To all would be authors, don't give up. The light at the end of the tunnel is calling you.
After what seems to be an endless back and forth process, from concept to execution, from scribblings to type written text, from thumbnail to paint brush, from the canvass to its digital formatting, the book which was conceived originally as gallery of illustrations or a portrait exhibit, which then evolved into a memoir with historical nuances is finally … born. Pinoy Portraits is a dream project which is no longer a dream. It now has a life of its own after all the quiet hoopla among friends that I’m coming up with a soon-to-be-published book which they’ve grown tired of waiting for. Yup, the long wait is over. And it’s all worth the incubation period. Thanks to PublishMyBook.US and Sam Wilson, the project manager who has supported me in this journey with diligence, patience and unwavering professionalism I will always be grateful for. For sure, this is just the beginning of more book projects to be launched. More power to Sam and PublishMyBook.US. Apollo

Completely a scam
Completely a scam. They constantly lie about everything they say. Their story changes with each person you talk to.

I want to give a huge shoutout to my team at PublishMyBook for their outstanding support. In May 2024, I sent them a manuscript that had been sitting untouched on my MacBook for seen years, and I was completely new to publishing world. They did an amazing job with my cover concept, turning it into something even better than I had imagined.
