Services Unlimited Plus ripoff con artist fake ripoff tricked and lied to us victimized many consumers Glendale Arizona
I have read ALL of the reports prior to filling out mine. And let me just start off by saying WHOA! This is the second time dealing with SUL. I dealt with them around Christmas of 1999. I was approached by a young man when coming out of Sports Chalet after shopping for my husband. I proceeded to purchase a Scuba Diving mag as a gift for him. I paid $28 and paid by cash, and went on home to tell him about it. He said he appreciated it, but didn't have time for a magazine.
So, I decided to cancel and I filled out the back and sent it to them. In this case, I did receive my refund, and I hadn't seen hide nor hair of this company since then....UNTIL March of this year. I had just moved into my apartment March 14th, when Crystal Matina knocked on my door. She told me that she was trying to win a trip to Cancun, and a $1000 for school. I have wanted to purchase a Reader's Digest subscription for sometime, but have never brougt myself to do it. Seeing this opportunity present its self, I thought, why not help someone out and get my magazine subscription I've wanted. So I did. I also bought my 8 year old daughter a subscription to Disney Adventures. In total I spent $76. $56 for the subscriptions and $20 for the processing and handling charge, which was paid by check.
I have to admit, that it obviously hasn't been that long, just over a month, since this. So there MIGHT be a chance that I might get my magazines in the next 2-3 months, I do really doubt it though. However, here is a bit of information that I am not sure anyone knows. I haven't seen anyone reference this on this site. I was looking at a copy online of my canceled check (which I was told would be held for 7 days, but was cashed the very next freakin day) and I saw the endorsement stamp on the back. It says Circulation II, Doing Business As Services Unlimited Plus. I also went to the Maricopa County Recorder, in Arizona, and found Services Unlimited listed, and there is a husband and wife listed as owners. CHECK IT OUT!
Now, I don't know how important this information is, or if I am just a numb nut and everyone already knows, but I don't want to ignore this if others don't know. I looked up Circulation II on the BBB website, and this company is in IL. It is listed as a Door-to-Door magazine company. So, do what you want with this info, I will keep everyone updated as to how my situation goes.

in respnse to someone finding the company listed under a husband and wife yes. many people dont know how it came about. the wife a know person, she worked under a great manager in a different company. she actually cares about the young people that work for her, just lucky to be able to make a living at it. admit some people do lie , but the fact over all is that the contest that some kids state they are in is true. nca contest. national cash award or national communication contest. the cash is real and so is the trip. there are quite a few people i know that have recently won the trip. in small print on receipt it does state it may take up to 120days to receive your first mag. admit the are some mis angeled kids out there. every company has its problems. it just happens that people like to sit and write all the bad things that happen in traveling sales crew instead of the bad. the are many people that are very successful because of the experiences they learned through woking this job. so before who critize the company look to see that are company have their problems and all are attempting to change them. if you have any other comment or questions just ask, and i will tell you the truth. a large company. samll number. say out off 1000 people, between 10-25 may hav trouble getting their magines. over all number is good. not saying these people dont need their mags. some number were error have been made somewhere. every business has set back.
