I picked up a local paper today and found a work from home offer. I called the number and they asked for the code listed in the ad. I gave them the code and they explained to me that this is an opportunity to make jewelry from home. You pay $44.95 to get a catalog of companies that will send parts to you to make the required jewelry. They mail it to you, you make the product and mail it back (postage paid). THIS COMPANY IS A SCAM!!! They will take your money and indeed send the catalog however it is the same few companies listed over and over... read full review »

This company call my 69 year Mother and claimed that they could lower her intrest rate. They told her it cost her $890.00 one time fee. In which she allow them to charge her credit card. They told her that if they couldn't lower her intrest, they would refund her money. So when she told me what she had done. I call the number that they gave her, And the number is no longer in service. I really think there should be something done about these people taking advantage of elderly people, Because most of them have very tight budget. and can't be giving money to scam artist like these. read full review »

My complaint is self explanitory. In the wake of massive bailouts and credit problems I thought banks would appreciate their paying customers A LOT more. Here a copy of the corrospondence: I appreciate your prompt response. Apparently the extra $10.00 charge being used for customer relations and I am sure THAT is also in line with industry standards. Please be assured, as per my original comment, that I am giving formal notice that this account IS to be cancelled immediately, November 11, 2008. Also I will NEVER shop at... read full review »

These people called my 80 year old grandmother, harrassing her, telling her they would be having me arrested and were filing a lawsuit against me. She was so upset. I called 6 times to get information from them but they kept hanging up on me when I asked for their physical address. They kept telling me that they were a PI firm working for the attorney. When I finally got someone to give me a fax number to send a cease and desist since I knew they were a collection agency, they told me they would be having me served with a law suit. read full review »

I have been doing business with Nationwide Financing and find them to be very profitable to my business. I have been with their program for 4 months. Nationwide Financing customer service is always there for my replacements, and I have wrote over 60% and was able to Quote over 80% of their applicants. Just maybe it may be the agent and not Nationwide Financing who are doing something wrong. Some agents just don't have what it takes to do the calling. They sit and wait on business to come by referrals. You have to be a Sales Person...not just an Agent... read full review »

I am filing a complaint for PayPal Plus Credit GE money. I just caught them not only taking a portion of my monthly payment to finance charges I presume, but also when the billing cycle ends the 7th of every month. They are taking another $55 on top of the portion they took not only a week before from the payment! How can they be double dipping? On top of that they are taking the charge on the 7th from the card itself as a cash advance. How can this be legal! I am filling a complaint with the better BBB also. I smell a lawsuit! For sure!

I first received a call from this company several months back. I did answer and speak with a woman the first time they phoned to see what it was about as I did not recognize the number and was not behind on anything. She advised this was in regards to a medical bill from 2002. She could only provide the doctors name and the company that was filing on behalf of the doctor. None of this sounded right as 1/I have excellent benefits and 2/ I was not involved in any surgeries at all. I took the information down and proceeded to look up the doctor -... read full review »

James Van Blaricum has stolen investment money from many people. I sent in a check for investment on a 3 well natural gas drill project. They paid a small amount back (approx. 10%), however current well # 3 is producing (confirmed with the Texas RR Comm.), but no payments now for two years. Investigating this company for a Ponzi Scheme. Everything is deceit about this operation. From his picture taken 20 years ago, to the company name (taken from a closed business ). This guy has many unhappy people that he has stiffed. He belongs behind bars and I'm going to help get him there. read full review »

$11.89 charge appears on account from Pioneer Media, LLC.. I emailed First Citizens Bank for an explanation of the charge. They responded and advised me to google the name of the co. and(for me) to ask them for a refund. Way to go First Citizens, big help. Anyway, their solution was to disable my account and send me new card that should arrive in 7 to 10 days. Again, thanks for the assist. As far as, Pioneer Media, LLC. I'm sure it's probably some lame foreign criminal organization. God forbid they should actually do something legitimate! read full review »

The defendants, Stewart and Conti development Co., stalled by purposely not paying their own legal fees during arbitration. I paid the legal fees for Nick Conti, and Les Stewart, so the stalling would come to and end. A move most would classify, by not paying the legal fees required in their own purchase contract I signed and followed, as coming from the lowest of immoral and unethical people acting like builders. Until my award is paid and I am made whole, this comment and award, will stay in print. Taking 400k from a home buyer such a... read full review »

After being downsized by a large company, I was in search of an affordable home based, 1 man business opportunity. I came across Lease One Corporation in several of the 'Franchise Opportunity' websites. Although the $20, 000 investment was substantial, it was relatively little in comparison to the type of investments required by most of the options I found (generally $50k or greater). They have their sales pitch down: 8 out of 10 businesses will lease some portion of their equipment, it's a $270 billion a year industry and... read full review »
