Complaint Review: Professional Marketing Group/Robert Allen

I too am out $5200. I was called by someone at PMG using Robert Allen. They promised that if I followed their instuctions and worked with my assigned coach I would make my money back within 6 months to a year.

They did not mention the expense associated with marketing the website (spent and additional $1000 before I gave up). They claim to throw in "for free" access to a wholesale warehouse. The prices offered by this warehouse are more expensive than other websites and they do not ship your products for 15 (thats right) days.

I actually found out that they are a DROPSHIPPER just like I was. The hosting company Vermotions charges $39 monthly not included in the $5200. Keep in mind that Vermotions hosting does not allow you to use coupons or CCV2 for credit card processing (which is readily available with less expensive hosting companies). They recommended that you use certain companies for link trading etc. I found I was able to get better link trading for free. They apparently are affilaited with many of the companieds that they suggest that you do business with. So in essense that continue to make additional money off of you.

I have requested a partial (75%)refund of my money, assuming that the coach had to be paid. I was told that I could get a year of continued coaching "for free"(continue to pay their monthly fees) or close my account an absorb my losses.

In my mind I have a third and fourth option. I will make sure that no one else falls prey to Robert Allen, PMG and Vermotions. Additionally i will persue getting some of my money back.
