Misleading recruitment
In 2/24/09 I responded to an ad in the Internet. The initial contact played a tape. My understanding was that I was to solicit businesses to install their brand of credit card machine, which would be cheaper than what they (customer) is paying now. After I was turned over to the supervisor it became apparent that it involved much more direct selling. I have bad knees and bank and am scheduled for a knee replacement in 1-2010. Nevertheless it seemed I could work this from my home with no further outlay. Shortly thereafter I received a phone call from a co. which takes your money and send out a "blst" of offers to various addresses they get from a marketing source. In otherwords, the more names sent out the greater chance of getting interested prospects, but at approx. $1 per name. I could not afford this. After seeing that I could not afford to buy advertising and my limited contacts with businesses I finally talked with who I assumed to be a manager, who said that if I wanted out I could do so. Unfortunatelt, not seeing their initial $50 charge I thought it had been dropped but I now notice that I did pay it in 3/2009. Tonight I was asked to sign some papers and return them so that I would not be charged a mo. fee.Theses included credit card charge papers I never saw although I did charge the initial material.
This business is misrepresented and for $150 one gets a folder of a few avertising materials but no training materials. There is always the push to buy advertising.
This co. also says they loan businesses money at substandard rates.

False Purchase of Google Ad $2,000.00 paid
I Received a Call from Rep. Frank Mont0ya in August 09, concerning a purchase I made for a business opportunity with Bankcard Empire in the amount of $159.00. His call was for me to purchase an Ad spot with Google Ads Page which would be a main Ad to advertise My Business Name and Number CODE. MY AD WOULD APPEAR NEAR A NEW PAGE ADVERTISING A NEW GAMBLINE PLACE IN LOS VAGAS AND GUARENTEED TO PRODUCE CUSTOMERS FOR MY BUSINESS WITH BANCARD EMPIRE. Mr. Montoya quoted a price of $4, 000.00 cash purchase for One Year Ad on Google or $2, 000.00 for 6 Mos. I PURCHASED THE 6 MONTHS AD FOR $2, 000.00 ON FRIDAY AUGUST 21, 2009, BY FAX AS INSTRUCTED BY MR. MONTOYA. THE SITE WAS VERIFIED BY "KATIE" FOR THE PURCHASE OF AN AD ON GOOGLE, POWED BY GOOGLE.
WHEN I CHECKED THE GOOGLE SITE, I FOUND ANOTHER AGENT FOR BANKCARD EMPIRE, WITH HIS PICTURE AND HIS ID. MINE WAS NOWHERE ON THE POWED BY GOOGLE PAGE SITE, i PAID CASH FOR.
I SPOKE TO MR. EARL ON 2/29/09 IN REGARDS TO THIS PURCHASE AND REFUND OF MY $2, 000.00. HE WAS GOING TO SPEAK TO HIS SUPERVISOR CONCERNING MY PROBLEM WITH THE REFUND. I THEN GOT A CALL FROM MY BROTHER IN MISSISSIPPI CONCERNING THE EMERGENCY CALL CONCERNING MY OLDER BROTHER BEING RUSHED TO SLIDELL MEMORIAL HOSPITAL WITH A HEART ATTACK. BUD MENDOZA IS THE BROTHER IN AMBULANCE BEING RUSHED FORM WARD 9, ARABI, OF NEW OLREANS, LA.
I THEN HAD TO PACK, CLOSE UP MY HOME AND DRIVE 5 HOURS TO MISSISSIPPI TO MY YOUNGER BROUTHERS HOME TO MEET WITH HIM TO DRIVE TO SLIDELL HOSPITAL. I AM NOW HOME AND FOLLOWING UP ON MY CALL AND TALK TO EARL TO CONCLUDE THE PROCESS OF A "REFUND FOR
$2, 000.00. WHICH HE SAID WAS OWED ME" THANK YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO GET THIS TO YOU.
SIGNED: AGENT ETHEL M. BAILEY

Retraction of Complaint
After reviewing some other things concerning this company on this site, I am retracting my complaint. These people get nasty when complained about and I can't risk legal action. I've already paid $850 to date and can't afford to pay more for legal costs.

No More!
I signed up with BCE almost one year ago with lots of sweet-talk about training with high-ranked people, promises to "walk with me" in this so-called business. As fast as I signed up, the person who signed me up disappeared. Then phone calls started about investing in advertising. I was skeptical until I met Kimberly. VERY PERSONABLE, CONFIDENT, and wooed me with ideas about her helping me to pay off my house in 6 months. I was even told I would have a 10% guarantee of the e-mail/call blasts or my money back. She said I was guaranteed 7 machines($3500). Seemed like a win-win for me so I "invested/gave away" $700 for advertising. Guess who else disappeared? For months now I have tried to get the company to stand by what their people told me but nothing yet. VERY expensive lesson learned!!

Fraud
This company is a rip off. I decided to try a home based business and this one seemed easy enough. All I had to do was send people to my website (they provided a one page site). Customers/Businesses would fill out an interest form. It would go to the company and they would sell the merchant account and I would get a percentage of the sell and if they purchased the equipment to process credit cards, I would also make money on that. Then a marketing person called me to market my website with email and call blasts. At the tune of $50, 000.00. Was told all the leads would go into my back office on the sight and then I would call the lead and have them call the company with my affiliate number and I would make my money back in 2-3 months and keep making money thereafter. Well, I never got the call and email blasts leads in my back office and called them. They said it was never implemented and would send them out again. I check the back office on a regular basis and never have received any leads. I filed a report with the WV Attorney General"s Office and they are taking my case. Please call your Attorney Generals Office if you've been ripped off by Bankcard Empire.

Fraudulent Statements Court Action
I got involved in this business over 8 months ago and have been sold the business, some call blasts and email blasts as well as radio advertising. I have spent in excess of 15, 000 dollars and have yet to get a single merchant. I see a lot of people going through the same ordeal, some spending even more than myself and some less. I have retained a firm who can represent disgruntled affiliates nationwide through their vast network of attorneys and all I need are at least one dozen people who have absolute issues regarding what they purchased and the results as well as how it was represented to establish a class action. If you are a person who has not been contacted after tries to speak to someone at this company or have spent monies with no real track record of where the money went, (as is my situation, all I get are Google maps of areas and not specifics, please contact me at [email protected]. Please do not respond here as I am sure this is watched daily. I am sick over this as I am not a rich person. I retired 4 years ago but this looked like a good opportunity so I "invested" some of my pension. I am worried now. IF you feel the same way...PLEASE CONTACT ME IF YOU ARE ON THESE FORUMS. I am hoping I can get the RIGHT people together to get this going quickly. I have been assured by the attorneys that if enough people have solid evidence, we can move quickly.I see people who appear to have lost money as well, so if you want to get the ball rolling quickly, please step forward and help me to help you as well. I look forward to talking to those of youthat are in the same boat as myself. Please put Bankcard Victim in the subject line as I get a lot of email. I am usually quiet but Let's NAIL these bastards. |
