This investment group owned and operated by Ronald W. Hertel and partner Robert John Samuel Fowler is a smoke and mirrors fraud. They use several phony front companies and make big money making promises on investment returns. Nothing could be further from the facts and truth. It is a con game and shell company for fraud and rip offs. I would highly recommend any investors or business staff to do a serious search and check with the State Department of Consumer Protection and Contractors Board as well. They are nothing more than a scam of people... read full review »

This company has called many, many times over a bill that they say I owe to Verizon Telecom dating back to 9/18/2001. This alleged bill has never been posted on my credit report. I have not heard from Verizon at all in nearly 7 years. As per their letter dated 2/19/2008 I have disputed their claim. This company harasses the people that they speak with on the phone and will not transfer you to the person that leaves a message. One cannot speak with a supervisor. and, as other have reported, they are rude. If no one else has sued them by... read full review »

I am in the Navy and am required to move around a lot. I also do a lot of traveling inside the US visiting family and friends. My T-mobile phone only works in a few spots of the US. I always see others with version and Cingular using the phone, but mine has no antenna. I thought maybe I could get a new phone (with another 1Year contract) and that would fix my problem. I was wrong. I now have a cell phone that works less than 35% of the time while these other folks walk around me using the cell phone all the time. I will make my move to cingular after this contract. read full review »

I keep calling " Great fun" to refund my money and stop the monthly charges... offices are always closed! We are living out of the USA right now and how they even got our cridt/debit card number is beyond me... I did research online and looks like there is a connection with Chase bank??? Which I do have a regular credit card thru but, no charges on that card only my bank card... strange. Had to cancel my card and get a new one! Gladly though as this is some kind of scam and they will not get one more penny from me! I have been charged $11.99 for the last few months... read full review »

I have been getting charged by WPI*IFRIENDS for services I did not even register to use. I could not fill out an charge cancel because I do not remember signing up for the website. I did browse it several months back, but I never signed up for anything. So I do not believe I can cancel my payments. If Ifriends could correct this problem I would appreciate it. I am not very happy that I have had about 100 USD stolen from me. read full review »

Ok first off you walk in and see this lady who looks like one of those apartment managers from the 1970's. Her name is Trudy... She was not easy to talk to. I had a friend who lived there and i went into the office to check out prices. i liked the location... it was close to school. Well when I asked her if the model was exactly what the apartments looked like she said "its the exact working model" meaning in my mind they must have upgraded! Well we were talking to a neighbor of my friends who just moved in not more then one week... read full review »

I never said: "Take my money ($33.87 x 2=$67.74) that I work hard for every day, steal it from me now since I have very little money in my bank account. " Because of that money loss from my account I had to also lose even more money due to overdraft charges of $30.00 x 2=$60.00! (It'll be another week of having popcorn and fruits for dinner). I hope you don't ever have to suffer this type of thieving-trickery from greedy people who just don't care. You owe me: $127.74! I will be looking for the return of my... read full review »

I have tried for this entire week to find SOMETHING at your site that would allow me to unsubscribe - there is nothing. Now my bank wants the 40.00 bucks you took AND an overdraw penalty. I want ALL that money back in my account immediately. That would be a total of $70.00 as YOUR "transaction" put me over my checking balance. Further: I WANT TO QUIT, UNSUBSCRIBE, WHATEVER IT TAKES - YOU CAN HAVE YOUR STUPID DISK BACK TOO - I will never do business with you again. Sincerely, Vicky. read full review »

We have no idea who this company really is. This is what is on the caller id. they keep calling about a debt from 7 or 8 years ago, that was an identity theft for MBNA. We never received any information on this debt except about 6 years ago and it was for something in Texas. We went to arbitration and won and now they want proof of all this but we do not know who they are. They call several times a day. I spoke to them and they go well it is an open debt, well then send me something so I can review. Don't just call! read full review »

In the beginning of December 2007 I noticed that there were 3 separate charges (direct debit) to my bank card for Skype usage. These charges were pulled from my Business account with PayPal, who can pull money out of your bank account any time they wish. The 3 charges were all completed on the same day - November 29, 2007. One in the amount of $29.95 and two others both for $10.00 each.

In the past, I have done business with other banks, but I have never experienced anything like what this bank is doing. I know that if you overdraw your account, there is a $35. fee. This bank charges the fee every five days until you make a deposit. I've spoken to these cold hearted cut throats and have gotten nowhere with them. I'm a senior citizen, and if I'm not mistaken, it is against federal law to charge overdraft fees on direct deposit Social Security checks. It fell on deaf ears with these people. Since u... read full review »
