Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?
I applied for a credit card online from a legit bank, and was turned down. Evidently, they sold my info to Everest Consumer Services, and a number of other companies. A few days later, I was contacted by Ms. Leslie Lucas of Everest.

Ms Lucas (I doubt that's her real name) told me I had been approved for a Master Card with a $2300 credit limit. She told me there would be a one time fee of $299 for processing. She then asked for my checking account number, which I was reluctant to reveal. I was anxious to get a card, so I let her talk me into it. This was early May

I was told it would take six to twelve business days to get the card. When the card didn't come, I called their customer svc. Number. I was then told it would be four to six weeks.

Six weeks passed and still no card. A day or so after I allowed myself to be taken in by these people, I checked Rip-Off Report.

There was no info about this company at that time. I checked again today, 6/26/04, and there are complaints, all within the last couple of weeks. They must be new.

I contacted CCR, Everest's customer svc. rep. They told me I had to return the useless junk that Everest sent me in order to obtain a refund. I returned it via UPS. UPS reports that no such company exists at 235 Peachtree St. Atlanta, GA. I reported this to CCR and got nowhere. The person I spoke to offered no explanation, but said she would make a note of it. Big deal. I'm wondering if there aren't grounds for a class-action suit against Wachovia Bank for processing the bank-drafts for these crooks.

June 26. Later on June 26 I received an envelope from Everest. It contained a booklet about repairing credit, A list of banks that issue credit cards, a couple of credit card applications, and an ad for a wireless phone co. They did not send the Mastercard with a $2300 credit limit , like they promised. That is fraud. I will be contacting my bank, the FBI, the FTC, the FCC, and the State Attourney General's Office.
