Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?
I sold my business in october 2006, I returned the credit card processing machine, which I leased through above company, in December 2006. The new owners who bought my business were going to sign with the same processor and assume the lease after transfering it into their company name. This never happened so I was responsible for the two month period, which is fine. Upon finding the new owners were using a different processor, I picked up the leased equipment and returned it to Lease Financial Group along with corrospondence to cancel the account. They continued to bill me each month. I called each month and spoke with a suppervisor who said they would cease the billing and close the account. That never happened and I still continue to get billed for the lease of the credit card machine over one year after I returned the equipment.

Hi Jon, I too was deceived by LFG. and that was years ago. However, I haven't given up on giving suggestions to others. LFG using Independent Sales Reps to hook people in so they wouldn't be responsible. As small business owners, we are little fish, but hopefully enough little fish will become noticed. Here is what I have been telling people: I have been making this suggestion to many other people being RippedOff by CIT & Independent Reps. So far, I have received no additional calls since I did this plus told CIT that this was FRAUD and/or FORGERY. But who knows???? So check this out>>>> You may want to send a complaint to FTC (Federal Trade Commission). I did and received a response saying they don't do individual cases. However, if they log enough complaints, they will start an investigation and possibly legal action. So here is the link: https://rn.ftc.gov/pls/dod/wsolcq$.startup?Z_ORG_CODE=PU01 to the FTC complaint forms. I've told many people about it, so you may want to do the same. Make sure you give specific examples or even let them know you have documentation of deceptive or misleading information. Please remember if things weren't CLEARLY disclosed at time of sale, this may be FRAUD in most states Also, you may want to file with your State Attorney General. I haven't given up, but it does take a while for the squeaky wheel to be heard. The lease finance group did file to the credit bureau as a lost debt. However, I recently refinanced my home. I showed the Financing Company all the correspondence I had with this company, plus the many RipOff Reports, and she had a great laugh and I got my loan at a very low interest rate. As far as CIT, here is their main site: http://www.cit.com/main/default.htm . Also, within this site, I found e-mails and have sent copies of my rip-off report, including a copy of all the complaints listed under Lease Finance Group in the Rip-Off site. Here are some e-mail addresses, you may want to send your concerns to: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Just to let them know how you feel about their fraudulent relationships with Independent Sales Representatives. I did get the Rip-Off Report Do-It-Yourself Guide and it did have some good steps to follow. However, it was a little lacking in the cyberspace rip-offs. I've been paralleling the thoughts or ideas in this Guide to try to apply them to the internet. For example, instead of sending faxes, send e-mails. So every web site I am interested in, I look for e-mails and make up a group listing & start bombarding them with e-mails and include my rip-off report, plus any other rip-off concerns. I hope this helps. Thanks, G for California
