ANGEL ABNER OF TANDEM TELEPROSPECTING.COM OF AKRON OHIO IS A RIP OFF!!! Philadelphia Ohio
Services were purchased from this company for Telemarketing services in Jan 2008. $2000 was paid to this company with an agreement 500 appointments would be delivered within 1 calendar week. We did not receive half of what was delivered nor was the quality there. ANGEL ABNER is the President of this company who has a history of complaints see:

Her previous employer Rebecca even accused her of theft charges. Unfortunately we were not aware of this until after we paid for their services. We found out she is under several different company names scamming and providing fraudulent services. Beware of this company and the owner and I would advise you to not do business with them, for they will fraud you and take your money!
They took our $2000, however we got it back after providing our credit card company with all information on their services and what was provided.

I too also worked for Amber. And at 1st she was very nice. All the people there were very pleasant to work with.
My mom was diagnosed with TERMINAL cancer the middle of january so, i had to quit my job to be with her. I only worked about a week and a half. My mom died in februaruy 26th. I was going to go back and work after a while but, they were supposed to have paid me the beginning of feb and i never received my $360.00! I emailed Amber many many times and she said, there were money problems. I NEVER got paid!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have all the emails from her in reference to she was..... sending my monies out and again NEVER received my pay!!!! I made 16 freaking appts in one day for her!!! And NEVER got paid!!!
Stay away from this company!

I was employed with Tandem Teleprospecting from 11/07 to 2/08. During that time, employees were extremely cut back on hours. I submitted my availability of 40 hours per week every Friday and would be lucky to be given 20. They constantly changed the scripts on us and rebuttals were not encouraged. From the employee's point of view, we weren't given the opportunity to work as we wanted.
Also, they rip off employees as well. I was told, as well as 5 other employees, that Tandem had to close because leads were not being generated as they should. So, the 6 of us were let go. However, the company didn't close as Angel, Robert, Stephanie and two other employees, Randy or Doreen, are still working. They've changed the phone number and will not answer my calls.
I have yet to be paid for my last two weeks of work. They don't answer my calls, or return them. Emails are ignored as well. It has been nearly a month since I was supposed to be paid. I am not the only one of the 6 ex-employees to be left unpaid.
When we've asked about this, they insist we turn it into debt collections. Also, Robert had another of our numbers blocked from calling.
Shady business all around, I think.

First of all, I have all the emails also. WHich I clearly stated that NO Number of APPOINTMENTS were guarenteed. I have the contact we sent you also. And you did not get a refund through google check out. As it is still being investigated, and I sent them every email and the contract. As far as my past employer, I have already handled that situation and as I stated before I never stole anything. I have never changed my business name, my website is down right now, as I am uploading a new site, I started my company as Tandem Teleprospecting and I have never used any other name. I have my computer records and bank accounts to prove it.
You really need to look into it more, check out the other websites for one not my style, I edit my own website. And I do not need other company names or websites that other companies do, as I am a small company and only take on a few projects a month. I am a mother of 3 children and take on just enough to help make ends meet. I call everyday also, and I called on your account, and personally made 15-22 appointments a day. You have no heart to make such claims, you knew as of the several emails I wrote to you that we did not promise 500 apppointments. 500 appointments was a goal it was not guaranteed!!!! YOU ARE TRYING TO FRAUD ME and I WILL NOT STAND FOR IT. I HAVE THE PROOF! This is all I have to say and I will not waste my time replyng anymore!!!
