Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?
Back in March of 2005 we went to a web site called www.grant-partners.net and signed up for their "grant" program. We were called back that same day by a woman named Erin, she told us they had a program that would allow us to receive "garunteed grant funding" from the government in the amount of $2,000,000 for a new business start up. She said the program fee would be $6000.00 if we were excepted into their program and then our consultation would begin. We spoke to a Aneel or Aneal Paul who excepted us into the program. To make a long story short we sent them $6000.00 "all of our savings." Once they recieved the money, they claim we were entitled to some coaching sessions and at the end of our sessions we would be able to receive our $2,000,000 in funding from the government in the form of grants, notloans. They gave us some links to some grant site we could have found on our own. They also sent us an out dated cd that had out dated grant organizations listed on it....I do not know why they sent that. They claimed to have helped us get a federal id set up for our business, but when we went to the IRS to file taxes, there was no federal id listed for the company they claim they set an id up for. We had contact with Aneel Paul, Erin ?, Larry Ludke, Karen Hicks and Jessica Hicks, as wel as Mel Feller all of whom we have emails from to prove. We now find out that there is no such thing as garunteed funding in the form of grants from the government and we want our money back b/c it is causing an economic hardship. We also do not want this to effect anyone else. They should have never used the words garunteed. When we asked them if they can garuntee we will get grant funding they said yes which is a bold face lie. Never use their services.

First of all, let me say this website really works...as it pertains to my story. Shortly after I filled my complaint, I got an email fron the [email protected] saying NMR was concerned about my complaint and wanted to address it. I was given an email to get in touch with NMR directly. As soon as I sent them the information I had, they went to work. They verified I had actually used their program through Grant Partners. Onece verification was in place, they called me to discuss the issue. Heres what they did for me......They went back to Grant Partners, talked to them and a few days later, I received a call from The Success Team d/b/a Grant Partners. We talked and I told them flat out, I wanted ALL the money back we had invested. I was told there would be a %15 cancelation fee. I remained persistant and reminded them I had filed a compalint with the A. General's office. To make a long story short, I got all of the $6000.00 I was out. I waited for a while, just to make sure the check cleared. I have severed ties with the company. As far as grant partners is concerned, I really dont know what they do besides hook you up with a "coach," to help you write a busines plan. You can do that yourself almost for free - thats if you dont count your time as money. If you really nee a coach. NMR will do just fine. They were a third party vendor working with Grant Partner's clients. NMR's work was ethical and they kept all of their appointments. If you want to do business with them, go directly to their website and by-pass the middle man. My advice to all: I prayed about how to fix the problem. (I should have done that in the begining.) Always be the honest one. Dont fabricate you claim/story - you may have to prove it. RESEARCH RESEARCH RESEARCH RESEARCH RESEARCH RESEARCH RESEARCH Use this site as well as www.epinions.com Never pay with cash Keep every document you receive and keep all contact information. Never agree to terms that are less than desirable Understand what you are getting for your money Know your rights - get a lawyer if you have to. I did and I am NOT rich materialy If you are wrong but you just want your money back, you are wasting your time. Pick your battles. Time is on your side Thank you NMR and I wish you and your employees well. You have my vote.
