Additional File Information

Capital Credit Alliance is a mail order company which offers to sell consumers a "membership" card. Membership allows the consumer to purchase products through the Capital Credit Alliance shopping network. According to literature sent to consumers by the company, a consumer must call for membership acceptance; there are no additional fees or costs for receiving the MONEYFIRST CARD other than a membership fee; a maximum amount will be available to purchase items from the catalog once the new "credit card is assigned;" the credit card number may change once assigned; and cash on demand is a loan-free deferred-deposit service giving members access to immediate cash.

Consumers should note that correspondence from the company's representative, Mr. Gary Allen, has indicated that "membership and/or association fees are NOT REFUNDABLE, and that these transactions are final upon accepting membership." THE BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU WARNS CONSUMERS TO READ AND UNDERSTAND ANY CONTRACT BEFORE SIGNING IT. CONSUMERS SHOULD USE EXTREME CAUTION BEFORE GIVING FINANCIAL INFORMATION TO ANY COMPANY WHICH IS NOT KNOWN TO THEM. AN EXAMPLE OF SUCH INFORMATION IS THE CONSUMER'S BANK ACCOUNT OR CREDIT CARD NUMBER, DATE OF BIRTH, AND/OR SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER.

STOP! ..before you think about using the Better Business Bureau (BBB)... CLICK HERE to see how other consumers were victimized by the BBB's false or misleading information. Don't be fooled! It has been reported, when there are thousands of complaints and other investigations underway by authorities, the BBB has no choice but to finally give an UNsatisfactory rating to a BBB member business that is paying the BBB big membership fees every year. When a business is reported that is NOT a BBB member, BBB files WILL more likely show an UNsatisfactory rating, then reportedly shake down that company to become a member of the BBB. One positive thing about the BBB is, either way, if a business has an unsatisfactory rating with the BBB, you can be sure, the business is bad. But what about all those BBB member businesses that had complaints filed against them? Consumers never get to hear about them. What about the BBB advertising to the public? Is this a false and misleading perception they are giving about consumer confidence when dealing with a business? Click here to understand more of what consumers and business alike are saying about the BBB. You decide. ..Remember. The BBB membership is not earned, its paid for!
