Dear poster of the "Faith-based Funding" Ripoff Report,
First off, thank you for your post and concern around "Faith Based Funding" (FBF). We appreciate your efforts as we believe unethical business is not acceptable in any form. BUT before I give my complete thanks, I would like to uncover exactly how we do business with FBF, to clear your inaccuracies and our name.
To be 100% clear, FBF is not a "virtual client." First and foremost, Cheyenne business center is an office rental company, we have over 50 furnished offices, and at the time of your post, FBF was a good-standing company, that paid its monthly rental charge for an office on our main floor. Whether or not they call this location their "corporate headquarters" is not up to us - we have no authority over that. Our relationship with FBF is solely a landlord-tenant relationship. When they signed on as tenants in our building, we found no indication that they were participating in unethical business activity.
On one occasion, someone approached our facility and started asking suspicious questions about FBF. Questions that we have no authority to answer 1. because we don't know the answers and 2. I don't believe we should relay private operating information about our tenants if we are not sure it is accurate. This would be like us going to a rental car company and demanding information on a person who recently rented a car. However, had this visitor shared with us why they were inquiring, we certainly would have done our best to assist them. We always have been and always will be compliant with any legal investigations into our tenants.
We run a very sound and ethical business. We research all of our "virtual clients" and this service is extremely valuable to loads of entrepreneurs and business people who need someone who can forward their mail and answer their phones when they are on the road. But our virtual service in no way encapsulates FBF because they rent physical office space in our building.
Again, we appreciate your post because this gives us some insight into our tenant that was not previously known. But we would sincerely appreciate if you remove our business name from your report as we are by no means at fault.
If you have any questions about our business or how we operate, please feel free to give me a call.
Regards,
Office Director
