*UPDATE: Primerica recognized by Rip-off Report a business opportunity well worth considering - it's not for everyone but many representatives make solid commission incomes. Primerica takes appropriate action against representatives conducting themselves improperly, pledges 100% commitment to customer service.

they told it won't effect my employment, just continue to get people to join, they just wanted me to get as many people to join before they let me know they company won't except me because of my record..

I was miss lead, when I got involved with primerica, I told them about my criminal background they told me don't worry that the company will except me, I was all excited, going to the seminars and presentations i even sat in the class for 45 minutes so I could be certified to do mortgages,they knew I wasn't gonna get excepted, they just wanted me to get people to join so they could put them under their wing, once they tell me, the company won't except me with my criminal background. i'm a changed man, if god could forgive me why can't they forgive me and let me move on with my life, they are the criminals they are robbing my future because of a crime I commited in the pass, i was honest with them. I believe this is discrimination.

Jermaine,

I don't think that Primerica had much of a problem with your past criminality. They probably saw it as an asset.

I'm thinking that you probably wouldn't be able to get the required licenses, and that's an issue with the state, not Primerica.

Nonetheless, I'm with you in thinking that they probably knew from the start that you wouldn't be able to do the job. They just wanted your referrals.

Truth be told, there's a pretty big silver lining here. Better to waste a few hours than a few hundred hours and a few hundered dollars. Now you can move on knowing that they couldn't exploit you.
