Grant Pro Writer, Reward Me More, BSM/funding Accilerat Watch out when taking phone calls, these companies work together to get you Los Vegas Nevada & Utah
I signed up for Grant Pro Writer. A few days later I got a call to confirm my membership. Later that day I got 3 or 4 more calls from the same lady. I told her I'd already talked to her and hung up. I also got another call from a man and told him the same thing. Upon checking my bank account, I discovered two additional charges from companies I didn't recall. When I called to cancel the 'memberships' I talked to the same woman for two of the different companies and the third woman told me that a lot of times one company will get your name then several other companies will call and solicit you for more 'memberships'. This is technically my fault, but they really confused me using the same company name within the pitch and calling me at busy times when I was at work. I would suggest NOT joining any memberships or companies over the phone. It is confusing and they are very fast talkers.
