First Capital Consumers Group ripoff, deceptive company victimized many consumers, Ontario Ontario *UPDATE ..Thank you Rip-off Report for getting me my refund of $199
I was contacted by a woman from First Capital named Mary Ann. She stated that I was approved for a Visa and Mastercard with a $2500 limit on each. The one time fee of $199 would have to be deducted from my checking account. I agreed and was called back to verify my information.
After considerable thinking I tried to call back to cancel. The number 416-289-2441 that Mary Ann gave--no one answers. So I went to the bank on Saturday 6/29/02 and withdrew all of the money out of my checking account except for $116. My bank still let this go thru on 7/1/02. Now i am overdrawn. If there is any help or advise please let me know.
I'm sorry I do not know there address.

Its been over a month since First Capital Consumer contactedme and ripped me off. I'm still having repercussions over this. My bank wouldn't refund my service charges on returned checks which was over $400. The bank said there wasn't anything they could do. We did do a stop payment on any further withdrawals from FCC. I'm losing my apartment and greatly behind on bills.
Please don't fall for this scam, its just not worth it. Even tho I have a job I couldn't afford to lose around $600 to some company that doesn't give a crap about anyone but theirselves. Thank goodness for the ripoff report for letting me know I was scammed. I have told all my friends to check this report daily. Keep up the good work.
Hopefully someday I can get a refund as well as everyone who was taken in by FCC.
