Brian West Mid Direct Scammed me by $499 I paid for a processor that I never got to use Traverse City Michigan
Brian West is a high risk processor middleman that tries to get high risk companies a processor to process credit cards. I sell Kratom and came to him for help. He charged me $499 and when I went to use the new processor, it was already closed because he gave me a MID (Merchant ID) that was used and used for something besides Kratom. The bank found out and closed my account. He promised to pay me back and never did. He prays on people and is very dishonest. DON'T GIVE HIM A DIME

Please feel free to ask any questions. This merchant says in his own complaint, "received a MID account.
Thats right, I did my job, and got him approved with the aquirring bank. Turns, he must have got approved elsewhere, and choose the other processor. Thus, wanted his "setup" fee back. Once the bank turns on the account, and you choose not to use it, they all keep that fee. Ask any 50k merchants out there. Its the same as a cancelation fee. When you want out, they charge you.. You know, the cell phone companies do as well.
He chooses to be in this "hard to place" industry.
Bottom line, "no one got ripped off" ! He just paid the fee.
