Independent Vending Concepts - Buzz Bites Vending Machines Took a deposit and refused to refund. This company is shady and unprofessional. St. George Utah
I conceder myself to be an entrepreneur. Looking for a new business venture, I started to look into the new highly advertised Buzz Bites Opportunity.
Unfortunately, I was wasting my time. After about a week of internet searching, looking into what it would take to make this business work, checking with procedures on how to go about setting up a vending business. Getting taxes, licensing, and business structure in general all figured out.
I contacted Independent Vending Concepts about purchasing some Machines. They gave me the pitch, clamed to be a Selection Committee for Distributors, and they are so busy with other locations all around the U. S. that they belittled my $10,250 purchase. Being the conservative that I am, I asked if I could buy some product to use for machine placement and secure some locations before I went through with the purchase. Nope, they wouldnt do that. So I mistakenly put down a 20% deposit for the machines so I could get my hands on some product. This was to ensure that I could get some feed back on placement and product before going any further.
Well, unfortunately I had some family and personal issues come up, that would not allow me to further pursue this business. As we all know life happens. So I called and left several messages about regretting that I will not be able to proceed and would need a refund. Having not signed anything, I was not too worried about getting the money back. So as time went on I was obviously put on the back burner, then I started to get some contact with the individual I was working with. I received an email that pretty much called me a liar, and that they have never had anyone ask for a refund so they didnt know what to do. Well, I will tell you it is just as easy to credit a credit card as it is to charge one. I was urged to go forward with the purchase and given excuses that the head of the company was out of town. They wouldnt be able to do anything if at all, so my deposit will be forfeited.
Well I then contacted My Credit Card Company and am now waiting for the out come of filing a disputed charge. I am pretty confident that I will get my money back.
To anyone thinking of dealing with the BUZZ BITES MACHINES: I am not putting down the product, in fact I love them and think buzz bites are great. I would not deal with The INDEPENDENT VENDING CONCEPTS Company. If you are set on building an energy vending business with buzz bites DO NOT GO THROUGH THESE GUYS!! They are a shady bunch of unprofessional, commission hungry sales tricksters.
I hope this finds anyone that needs it. Again, try to find an alternate source if you are looking to get your hands on some BUZZ BITES ENERGY CHEWS VENDING MACHINES OR START A ENERGY VENDING BUSINESS!!!

Update to this Independent Vending Concepts Report

Thu, April 03, 2008
After going to the extent of contacting a few people that matter to this company, my issues are on their way to being resolved. I am working with the president of the company, whom is very intent on helping getting me my deposit back. From my understanding the problem within the company has been fixed. This will no longer happen to anyone, and I truely believe this. In fact I am still concidering doing business with this company in the future. I guess all it takes is one bad apple to ruin the bunch. But if the bad apple is removed then the bunch can be salvaged. Don't let this post hinder you from doing business with Independent Vending Concepts. I, the creator of this report, am certain this company is full of integrity!!! P.S. BUZZ BITES ARE AWESOME!!!!!!!!!! DON'T LET OPPORTUNITY PASS YOU BY!!!!
