Do NOT join "FTA4WORLD"
www.fta4world.com. They're a RIPOFF whenit comes to
choosing money order option!!!What a way to get ripped off for Christmas!!

They're a total SCAM!!! Especially in Florida.I didn't get a "LIFETIME" membership that I wanted which ended on
Tuesday December 23, 2008. FTA4WORLD site is somewhere
either in Florida or off shore. They deny of any wrong doing for mishandling my money order.

First, I joined this site, www.fta4world.com which has a
forum group. But when it comes to paying for a "LIFETIME" membership, it's a rip off. They offered 2 options for payment. 1 is pay pal, and the other is money order.

I decided money order so I sent them a $100 money order for a "LIFETIME" membership that they offered.

I sent the money order by USPS next day air with tracking number, which I sent to FTA4WORLD at "Satellite Reception Technology, L.L. C." in Fruit Cove, Florida.

I also do have a recipe for the postal money order and the shipment. According to USPS tracking, it has arrived to the address in Jacksonville, Florida on December 18, 2008.

On December 22, 2008 I got an e-mail from a guy named
"Tab" from FTA4WORLD site, who said that he haven't receive my $100 money order, and was THREATING ME, WANTING ME TO FORCEME TO PAY BY PAY PAL on a LIFETIME MEMBERSHIP which ended on Tuesday December 23rd. FORCING ME??? And he stated that he haven't receive my money order.

I sent "Tab" the USPS tracking information to show him that my money order is there. He then replied back and told me that he has too many mailing addresses and wouldn't give me a lifetime membership on FTA4WORLD site.

Sounds suspicious?? Skeptical??? "Tab" was the one who gave me the mailing address, and he told me that's the correct address.

Well, where's my money order for him to varify my lifetime membership??? And it has ended on Dec. 23rd.
I've SAVED all e-mails contact which I'm willing to share with to whom want to investigate it.

It seems like in the way "Tab" who typed e-mails, could be a kid at under the age of 21 or under 18. Because of communication problems, and made typos.

About Satellite Reception Technology, L.L.C. I sent a money order of $100 to become a LIFETIME MEMBERSHIP on their website called "FTA4WORLD" www.fta4world.com to access download files for digital Free To Air ( FTA ) satellite receivers to be upgrade to watch digital satellite tv for free.

They offered options, pay by Pay Pal or Money order.
I decided to pay by money order.

I sent them the money order last week by USPS express mail, overnight. USPS tracking number: EQ03 8113 829USUSPS money order number: 16529701140 You can access the USPS tracking by using my tracking number
at the above to know where mymoney order went. "Tab" from FTA4WORLD couldn't resolve theproblem.
by disregard the money order, and deny any wrong doing.

I'm being scamed by Satellite Reception, L.L.C. / FTA4WORLD site and didn't get a lifetime membership.

What a Christmas gift from FTA4WORLD by ENFORCING me to
pay by Pay Pal instead of them looking for the money order that I sent. I didn't pay by Pay Pal, because I know that they have my money order that was delivered.

If they offers money order option, they should already be
able to know how to manage and to keep track of costumers'money order. Because if they don't, you would definitely think it's a scam. They might have already cash it and disregards.I think that they're more way too easy in handling money
with Pay Pal, instead.

The last thing I did was I filed a online complaint to the Florida State Attorney General on the night of December 22nd regarding this matter. After "Tab" from FTA4WORLD site, in Florida, wanted to FORCE me to pay by pay pal on December 23rd deadline, instead of looking my money order that I sent.

All I want is either a LIFETIME MEMBERSHIP from FTA4WORLD that I paid by money order. Or my money back which FTA4WORLD should be shut down as an illegal operation for good.

I would be happy to send you all e-mails communication that I've been in contacted with FTA4WORLD site regarding my $100 money order.

If there anything that you need to know, pleasee-mail me as I provided in the online complaint form.

Thank you.

This person has issues ,we tried to refund him his subscription fee.He responds in his usual non productive manner on this site.We never hurt this person or banned him off our site till today .If testing satellite reception is considered illegal why does he practice this and need our site ? We at fta4world are not breaking any laws last check to our knowlege none of the satellite tv providers own the air though they feel they do. We do not do anything but post firmware and give technical support . We are under the constitution allowed the right of free speech as our person in question here is.This right does not include the right to bear fraudulent claim. He by his own admission joined our site to obtain tv free with out paying the provider of the signal. We provide testing information only what he or other members do is not in our control . It is unfortunate that the by trying to help this person our google add has been ruined we pay thousands only to have a person we helped gave 2mths of free service ,turn on us. HE NEVER HAD A RETURN ADDRESS ON THE MONEY ORDER OR THE PACKAGE IN WHICH IT WAS SENT ,NOR WILL HE REPLY TO MY E MAILS ,THIS IS THE TYPE OF PERSON WE ARE DEALING WITH .WOULD YOU WANT SUCH A PERSON ON YOU WEB SITE OR IN YOUR HOME? THAT IS WHY WE TRIED (UNSUCCESSFULLY) TO REFUND HIS SUBSCRIPTION TO FTA4WORD.WE SINCERELY SEND THIS PERSON OR BEST .WE HAVE TO TAKE LEGAL ACTIONS TO CORRECT THIS WRONG ,WE HAVE NO ADDRESS SO WE HAVE TO SPEND EVEN MORE MONEY ON A PRIVATE INVESTIGATOR .PLEASE TAKE THIS PERSON UP READ ALL 23 EMAIL I SENT ,THEY WILL VINDICATE ME AND THE SITE.IF THEY WILL NOT SEND THEM I WILL UPON REQUEST.

Satellite Reception, L.L.C. / FTA4WORLD site is a Ripoff on money order option and didn't give me a lifetime membership Fruit Cove Florida

Update: December 27, 2008

On December 27, 2008 Satellite Reception Technology,
L.L.C. / FTA4WORLD in Florida sent me an e-mail stated
that they removed my membership and asked me for my
mailing address for them to send me the refund.
And advised me that they hired an attorney
to response to my attack for filling a complaint
on Ripoff report site and to Florida State Attorney
General for forcing me to pay pay pal because
they didn't receive my money order, which was
delivered on December 18th, according to USPS
tracking.

I stated in my ripoff report that on December 22nd,
FTA4WORLD sent me an e-mail stated that they
have not received my money order and were FORCED
to have me to pay by pay pal while the lifetime
membership was winding down in less than 24 hours.
That was on December 22nd.

I also stated that I was upset for them for forcing me to
pay by pay pal.

I wanted people to understand that NO one has
the right to force a customer to pay by pay pal in
the last minute before the memberhsip deadline,
due to not able to find the customers' money order.
I was skepitical, and suspicious in the way they're
handling business.

I also stated in my ripoff report that the FTA4WORLD
site is an illegal operation, which offers new members,
or paid members to download the latest file fixes for
consumers' digita FTA (Free to Air) satellite receivers.
Such as Viewsat and Pansat satellite receivers, to receive
Dish Network and Bev for free without paying subscription.
It's illegal to hack satellite network subscription.

FTA4WORLD denies all the above, my money order
and the way they run their operation website.
They said that it's not lllegal. The download files
are "propose test use" only.

I want to say this, if they have good communication,
by informing me by e-mail that they received my money
order and give me a membership, everything would be
smooth, and that none of this report would happen
by posting on ripoff report and report to the Florida
State Attorney General. But it didn't go smooth, so
I had to do what's best as a customer is by taking action.

I only would report if there something that I'm not satified
with a company. Than I wouldn't if I'm satified with the
company, and I would support them.

That's the lastest Update report for December 27, 2008.

Thanks for reading my update.

FTAWORLD Resolved my Complaint

Latest News.
10:50 pm PST

Regarding my ripoff report on Satellite Reception Technology,
L.L.C. / FTA4WORLD in Florida, the one that didn't receive
my money order that I sent, has resolved the problem.

They finaly found my $100 money order and I was told
that now I'm their LIFETIME MEMBER at FTA4WORLD site.

www.fta4world.com

I'm satified, that was a good Christmas gift for change.

For those of you had read my ripoff report regarding this
matter, please disregard and that Satellite Reception
Technology, L.L.C. / FTA4WORLD made a satifaction
for me.

The worst part is if they still haven't got my money order
after the December 23rd Dealine on their LIFETIME
MEMBERSHIP, I would still keep my ripoff report as posted.

Right now, at least for now, I don't think there's no need
to proceed the investigation on Satellite Reception Tech,
L.L.C. / FTA4WORLD. They'd changed for this year's Christmas.

That's the latest Update for December 23, 2008, 10:59 pm PST.

Your comment is always welcome.

Thank you,
