Complaint Review: Mountside Capital

Beware of Mountside Capital!  They are a fraudulant organization, if they even are one! 

I applied online for a personal loan for debt consolidation purposes.  I received a call from a man by the name of Richard Keel, who stated that I had been approved for a $5,000.00 secured loan.  He advised the only thing I would need was either, A) Collateral which would be the same worth of the loan or more, B) A Co-signer who had collateral in the amount of the loan requested, or C) A down payment for the loan as an insurance policy in case I lose my job or run off with the money.  I had my car paid off and it was worth more than the loan, but the car was too old for them to accept.  I did not have a co-signer either.  I told him I could put a down payment on the loan when I got paid.  I was advised at that time that I would only need to put down $500.00 in order to get my loan.  On my payday I contacted Richard who advised to "Western Union" the money to my insurance agent based in Victoria, BC named "Chris Smith".  So I wired the money called Richard back and gave him the MTCN number.  He advised I would have my money in minutes and to call him back.  An hour and a half went by with no money, so I called and Richard immediatley transferred me to his so called supervisor "Alex Morrison" who stated that the insurance agency and lending company were requesting an additional $400.00 as they considered me "High Risk" due to my credit.  They talked me into an additional $400.00 which I Western unioned the same day. When I called back and spoke to Alex he stated to give him 20 minutes and he would have my MTCN (control #) for my money so I could pick up my check for $5,000.00.  I called and called and called and no one answered my calls or voicemails.  On my way home that same day I made one more attempt to contact them and received Richard who hung up on me as soon as I said my name.  My boyfriend has tried contacting them and has been hung up on four times. 

Be careful of this so called company who sweet talks you into taking care of your debt and offering you a low intrest rates for a minimum monthly payment of $154.00 a month.  If it sounds too good to be true...IT IS!!!

I have contacted the attorney general on this and I will be turning them into the Better Business Bureao and taking them to small claims court!  If you have been scammed by this company, please reply!  I WILL get my money back and the fees it took to send this to them!!
