SureWay Benificial ripoff took 249.00 dollars no credit card Champlain New York
Around the first week of April a customer service rep. from Sureway Benificial called my home and advised me that I was qualified to receive a Master Card for 2000.00. The company had all my personal information and just asked me to verify the info and give them my bank account information so the one time fee of 249.00 could be debited from my acct. I really thought this was for real. I have worked in customer service for the past 5 years and everything really sounded as if this was a realy company. Plus the fact that I had just spoken with a Benifical Financial(which is a real credit provider) rep just a few days earlier made me think it was a real offer.

Since I posted my ripoff report and my complaint again Sureway to the BBB and my local police officals. I have been contacted by both the BBB and the Federal Trade Commision as well as the Federal Communications Commision. All three of these agency's are fully aware that SureWay benificial is a fruadulant company and is robing people of their hard earned money.
The FTC has a law-suit against sureway benificial b/c they are also operating in Canada as well as out of New York state. I was asked to send in documents showing they took 249 dollars out of my acct along with any other information I had like Sureways customer service number that I was given to check the status of my acct and the number to cancel the "free long distance" that came with the credit card. I was later contacted by the FCC and the FTC to let me know that there would be a deposition held in New York state and I may be called to testify against Sureway Benificial... which I would be glad to do! Please if you have any offers from a credit card company that even sounds anything like Sureway Benifical contact your local police and make a report with the BBB, FTC and FCC as soon as possible!!! I did end up getting my money back b/c my back reversed the transaction electronically but I was lucky!
Many people are asked to send in a check or money order or even western union the money! Please don't.... there is no way to get your money back if you do that! Just be careful and always check Ripoff Report first before you send anyone any money for any service they offer!
