Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?
Lease Finance Group LLC, has agent they call a Vendor,named Ultimate Merchant Systems, Inc, 506 Westbrook Ave., Brandon Fl. 33511. This company made promises to put credit card accepting services on my web site, enableing it to process credit cards. They said in so doing I could also get the credit card "swipe" machine that would inable use to process credit cards by phone should we choose. I told them I was only intrested in having my web site able to process credit cards.

They affirmed that they would do this and the credit card machine would just be an extra charge and service. I agreed under these conditions. Ultimate Merchanr Systems Inc. failed to install credit card processing on my web site. I told them (UMS) that I was returning the equipment as they had failed to preform as promised. For six times they promised to provide as contracted, in fact the Principle, Mr. Christopher R. Demian himself told me to hang on to the equipment and he would personally make sure that the work and service they promised would be preformed. So I waited, but again they did not provide.

Meanwhile, I was making payment on the equipment, but stoped when I saw I would not get what I was paying for and returned the equipment to Lease Finance Group ( known on the lease as CIT Financial. Every since I have been extremly harassed and abused by Lease Finance Group via phone and mail. There phone collectors would call me 12 to 15 times a day. Sometimes I would talk to there agent and explain things only to be accused of frightful things. The Harasment has not stoped.

Now they are calling me from there "legal department" saying I have been reported to the Credit Bureau and now they have no choise but to commence legal proceedings. I have told them to go ahead, as exposing there scheme and fraud to a Judge would be refreshing. They as of 10/20/06 not done that, but they continue to harasse me by both phone and mail, with many threats continuing.

This company is the worst I have ever seen in my whole life. They continue to ignore the fact that there lease was signed under false pretenses. I will never pay these crooks, but the harassment has not stoped, and I am ready to take some form of action agains them starting with complains to BBB and the Consumer Protection agencies, etc.

This situation could have been avoided if Mr. H. Chris would have called EMS Inc. They would have had him fill out a E-Commerce application and upon approval he would have been able to accept credit cards on his website. UMS Inc. regrets that Mr. H. Chris is unhappy with the program he signed up for. But as simple as it sounds all he needed to do was call EMS Inc. {his processor} and they would have been more than happy to help him. Sincerely, C. Demian
