The whole point to the subject is that nothing was given for the monies taken, no card, no catalog card, Nothing. The money was taken and nothing was recieved. Not even a denial of credit letter. It was promised a catalog card and $1000.00 cash advance available. What part of, "Nothing", don't you get!!!!!!

I know how these companies work.When you are called and offered a line of credit,you are switched over to a verification system and a recording of all terms and conditions,and up front, the recording will state that it is "NOT" affiliated with a major credit card company.Also,I have used these particular programs to restore my credit rating,they do work.In these recordings it states ATLEAST 3 times and more what kind of card it is..a catalog card.Then the rep has to ask you at the end if you agree to the recording while being recorded "and" monitored. So how is this a rip off.Most people don't even realize they can't get a major credit card, and in my opinion paying $200 to be a member of their program and use it for "JUST" a few months so you CAN get a major credit card, is small price to pay.Hands down,if you don't understand what you are agreeing to on a recording,then don't say YES ,or ask to hear the recording again and make your decision .The scammers are the consumers that agree to SERVICES,and then go to their banks and say they never authorized the charge.AND THAT IS FRUAD

As of today I was informed most banks are aware of this company and if you call them and explain they will more that likely help you with your misfotune. They in turn send out a fraud report for you. Remember also that they will still have your info so unless you close the account THEY ARE ABLE TO GET BACK IN AND TAKE YOU AGAIN!!!!!!!!
