I had a $3, 200.00 Balance (approx.) on a care credit card with no interest for one year and 21% interest. I had a balance of approx. $280.00 at the end of the one year period with no late payments and high payments early in the first three months of the pay back schedule that brought my balance down below $1500.00. At the end of the one year period I received a bill for approx. $672.00 for interest due which is the annual interest rate on a total balance of the $3200.00. I called to protest the charges and told them I would only agree to a... read full review »

We had discovered their services through the internet. We were notified by Darren and were told that we were pre-qualified for an SBA loan. We were told that we needed to pay a $40.00 fee to run our credit and $495.00 for an application fee. Needless to say it never amounted to anything and caused us four months of aggravation, grief, and damages to our finances as we stopped financing with a legitamate bank. read full review »

I deposited $59k in the Emirates Bank in Dubai. The money was stolen out of my account using a forged signature. The bank has 1. Refused to honour its obligation and refund me the money. 2. Refused to provide copies of the documents used to steal my money and 3. No senior member of the bank staff has ever bothered to contact me. Dubai has no banking ombudsman. I wrote to the central bank and they have not even bothered to answer my letter. I have attempted to engage four different lawyers, none of whom want to represent me against a potential or actual client. I advise anyone thinking of depositing money in Dubai not to - your money is not safe. read full review »

After working years for someone else I decided to buy a franchise. Ladco was strongly recommended by my back as their partner in merchant services. The contract was written up the rep reminded me over and over that the lease amount was tax deductable as a business expense. (should have reaised a red flag but what did I know) Well 18 months later the business failed and when I turned the franchise over to the new owner I offered to turn over the lease for the credit card machine and it's 52.00 a month payment. I was told I wa... read full review »

I am a realtor. I was contacted by a couple who had a variable loan on a home financed by Chase. The husband had become disabled and their house had become uninhabitable. It had TONS of city violations on it and it is in horrible condition. The amount they owed was more than the house was worth. I put it on the market and got a couple of short sale offers. This was in June 2008. I spent hours and hours working on paperwork only to find that each of the 14 times (yes, I have proof) that I faxed Chase, they denied they ever got it or would give... read full review »

I accepted a loan with GFS for a small amount of $225.00. After going through several hardships, I decided to enroll with a Debt Settlement Company. I notified GFS that my bank account had been closed and that all correspondence needed to go to this Debt Settlement Company and even faxed them a Power of Attorney. This was in June of 08. We did not hear anything from this company until Aug 08 where as they discussed a settlement and we accepted, to pay just the original $225.00. The company I was working with immediately sent them a check along... read full review »

I had a charge on my telephone bill. I googled and called Voicenet. I told the receptionist that on my phone bill, it stated -- USBI behalf of VoiceNet Telephone, LLC. The receptionist stated that they do not charge and do not have access to charge the telephone bill. She also stated that they are not VoiceNet Telephone and USBI does not show up on their invoices. I was so upset. So I googled other Voicenet's. I found www.voicenetplus.com. It states right on their home page: "Charges for your monthly calling plan will appear on... read full review »

I live in Louisville Kentucky. I had American Seamless 821 Ulrich Avenue Louisville KY. 40213 502-964-2848 install new Gutters. I chose American Seamless because the owner said that he donates a portion of each sale to an account that the customer can get cash back if they hold on to the voucher. This sounded to good to be true but he said most people forget to keep records because they move or other circumstances. We sent in the rebate after 4 years to come to find that it was a fraud. The owner of American Seamless must have known this to be the case as well. read full review »

I was contacted by First Data in California which insisted that they had 'internet' merchant account 'deals' that were very reasonable. I was told it would be 25.00 a month to have one, that seemed fine, and I signed papers that were mailed to me. I'm a law student and I looked these over, and they all seemed to be pretty much boilerplate. There were no obvious gotchas. After I signed, Linkpoint called me up insisting that they could NOT activate my account without a hardware purchase. This is something that... read full review »

We've lost $50, 000 to an investment in Gencom, Inc. by learning that the Share Certificate issued to us has a forged signature and the company is non-existent. The founder of Gencom, Inc. - Michael J. Colonna is not who he professes to be and doesn't have the credentials he purports to have. The company is bogus even though there are recent scientific journal publications about Gencom. So if you are asked to invest in Gencom, Inc. or want to hire Michael Colonna for consulting work under his consulting firm called Advanced Computer... read full review »

I joined Direct Medical out of Irving Texas. A discount plan which includes supposed discounts on medical services. A total RIPOFF!!! My doctor, a blood lab (which is on their website and in their booklet), a radiology site, (on their website and booklet) and my eye doctor (also listed in booklet) EVERY OFFICE refused the card.

I bullied my way to getting $179.00 monthly fee returned but $135.00 application fee was not. THIS IS A SCAM! Don't fall for it!! read full review »

Luckily, I caught these 2 transactions before to much time had passed by. The first unathorized withdrawl was for $49.95, the second was $39.95. The only reason I even found out these had been taken out of my account is I had Pending withdrawls and I knew I hadn't paid anything. I checked with my bank, and sure enough these scammers had taken money without my consent! My bank recovered my funds, stopped payment on the pending withdrawl and waived any fees caused by these people doing this. If this happens to you, contact your bank... read full review »

I had a short sale handled by Christerfer Boyett as well. You can't get him on the phone. But if he needs you, he will e-mail and call you back. I find this not a problem to me considering he has many files to handle. What bothered me most is that an offer of $199, 000 submitted 3 months ago (before the worldwide financial crisis) was approved only after 3 months of waiting. By then (the financial crisis had taken place), the buyer is not qualified for the mortgage he was intended to get to make the purchase. We remarketed the property at... read full review »
