Complaint Review: M1 Financial

We found the Advertisment in our local(MT) mini-nickel to borrow $12,000 by calling a TOLL-FREE # this M1 called on you to apply for a loan. We were approved, so I checked them out on the BBB, only I put in M One finanical and got a good report.

On July 1, 2005, we went to our local Western Union and sent $896.86 plus a $79.00 Western Union Fee, and were given a confirmation number to call them back (M1) Natalie Stevens. Natalie said that $12,000 would be deposited in our account within 24 hours, which came to find out we could never get ahold of her again. Every time we called, we got a different individual. Karen has been calling them every day, we put in for a refund of our money on July 8, 2005 and they keep giving us the run around.

I called them repeatedly today (August 16,2005) and he said, wouldn't give out his name, that the money was send out yesterday and then he said no it wasn't that I had to come up with another $940.00 to get my 979.00 back. I said how stupid does that sound. I asked him how many people have you scammed, and he said I have been in this business for 10 years and have scammed no one.
