capital first ripoff - Misrepresents its products and uses your information for sub contractors ripoff fraud business Miami Florida
Upon receipt of the capital first information packet, I read the fine print and it was discovered that the sales pitch was very misleading and I have attempted for 3 days to cancel this program and the phone rings three times and comes up busy.
I don't appreciate how they sucker single parents into thinking we're buying into this great program and then they are unavailble and the other numbers in the program are affiliates of capital first. not capital first themselves.
I am furious and hurt because like an idiot; i gave capital first my banking information and they are screwing up my account and i have no way of stopping this. I tried thru my bank and the bank rep says without the company's routing number, they can't stop any payments. what am I to do?

My Good news is that it may not be to late to help yourself. First go to your bank and ask to fill out a "dispute form." Like yourself I too fell for this same scam. Your bank should have a 30-60 day grace period to dispute any transactions. I had gone to my bank before the 30 day time period and as of today my bank called me to say they did get all of my money back into my account about 160.00.
Also while your there ask them to put a stop to this company from debiting from your account again. However my best advice would be to close this account and open another. I know this may seem like alot to do.
The reason you should close and change your account is because it doesn't seem to stop. I just received 2 peices of mail stating an agreement from Capital Firsts initial contact. The mail was from Mega Saver and Hartford Autoclub.
They both want to debit my account a $99 fee and a $54.90 fee. I plan on cancelling with them tomorrow between business hours but my husband is going to our bank to close and open a new account. I hope this will help. Good Luck!
