E M Business Connections I was told I would become a merchant agent for VISA, Mastercard and Discover. I paid $10,500 for leads that resulted in nothing. No clients applications were finalized to get credit card machines. All I have is a list of leads with no addresses or phone numbers. Internet
E M Business Connections has defauded me out of nearly $38,000 dollars. First, it was for $695 to become a merchant agent. The next day, I called back and wanted out. I had second thoughts but Bill Isska (Developing Manager of E M Business Connections) talked me out of cancelling the deal. He assured me that they were a legimate business.
This then lead to an additional $20,000 for business leads from a bank to get my business started. A week later, Dave Marsh called me with news that my $20,000 had been reduced to $10,500 because the bank had negotiated a lower price with someone else and would extend that price with me. I was thrilled that my debt is now reduced by $9,500.
I was told to call Dave Marsh every two weeks for a status update every Wednesday begiinning of May 29th, 2013. I never was able to contact Dave Marsh because the phone number that I called (866-964-5694) always said he was available at the time and to try again later. I been trying for 3 months and get the same message.
While this was going on I was contacted by Scott Parker (646-350-0820 for the Business Development Center) who talked about building corporate credit. Then a Jarrett (800-715-1772) a Credit Specialist called from Business Solutions Online Inc. talking about developing my business online website. I brieifly worked with a Lauren from Customer Service from Business Solutions Online Inc. for my capture page on my website. I paid another $10,000 to develop a website, banner ads, facebook, and twitter account for my business. During this time, I am still thinking that this is all legimate because of all the calls I received by none from Bill Isska or Dave Marsh.
The calls keep coming. I am now to take a online course on Corporate Credit for a business that really doesn't exist except in name only. E M Business Connections has lead down a path a financial ruin with no real means of making any money. I have a federal EIN number as a Merchant Agent but no contacts, no equipment to sale, etc. I would like to sue E M Business Connections but have no way contacting them.
