College Funding Grp. Aka College Funding Center They promised to provide free funding for my daughter to go to college Plano Texas
Back in 2002 I had spoken to James Thomas who had convinced me that there is so much free funding out there from companies the Government and the states. He had assured me College Funding had been in business for many years and that was there job was finding funding for college bound children. But when it came time for them to help with the funding I couldn't get anyone to return my phone call. I called and called and no one would return my phone call. I finally gave up because I am not to knowledgeable about fighting someone who has taken advantage of me.
I live in Tenn. and the person who involved me in this was James Thomas his number here in Nashville was 615/776-1289 and on his business card it has the main office at 9888 Bissonet #430, Houston, TX The phone number on the card is 713-779-3700 and the fax was 713-779-3787. I had although received two news letters from the college funding center which did have the address of 2828 W. Parker Rd. Plano TX 75026-0080. 1-800-299-9856 and 972-964-3970 Alan E. Baron was the one who wrote the newsletter and the only email address I had for them was [email protected].
I also have a contract with them which apparently is not worth what was put into it. If anybody has any more information on this company can you please email me at [email protected] I'm a single widowed mom and I'm not made of money but wanted my daughter to have every opportunity to go to college with out having to pay back so many loans. I would like to get my money back from the in the amount of 995.00

To All, The Federal Trade Commission has shut this company down and sued them for $1.4 million in restitution as well as required them to post a $1 million performance bond before allowing them to reopen. There is also now a program that is aimed at stopping anymore of these groups from taking advantage of parents trying to send their kids to college. For more information on the new guidelines, search at ftc.gov for anything regarding "Project Scholarscam". the inclosed link will take you directly to court documents regarding College Funding Center and contact information at the FTC. http://ftc.gov/opa/2005/01/collegeadvantage.htm Happy Hunting!!
