Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?
My original dealing was with CardService o26072 Merit Cir,Lauguan Hills,California May of 1998 for 24 months lease which was through LeaseComm from my credit card. Never even activated the machine but kept paying the lease because I was told I would own afer 24 months and could sell it.

When I continued to be charge three mos. after the agreed I called and they said I need to buy it out for $199.00 I said noway that wasn't the agreement so I returned to address give an e-commerce address filed a report with the BBB of California. Got a check for the 3 months and thought I was ok.

Never heard anything until I did student loans and they showed up as I owing them $600.00 sent in the update to the credit report that this was all cleared up and I didn't owe.

Fine everything was ok the student loans went through etc. In the mean time 2 years later I clean out old papers and burn all this material ecept for what I have been able to find in Tax paperwork.

Last Oct. I received calls from LeaseComm saying I owe over $2,000.00 I call and tell them I don't think so they tell me that I didn't cancel the lease with them, I tell them I did everything I was told, Name tel.

No and reason for returning when the equipment was returned and I don't owe this end of that. Well the letters came saying I can not cancel and that they will put this on my creidt report, sure enough they did. I get new calls from new people and I go through the same Information.

Recently a Fred Grenier has been calling and offered to take a few hundred dollars off. No way and that E-commerce are sleazy they probably have lease my machine to someone else and I should call a Trevor Cross and that in 60 days they will be filing court papers on me.

Wednesday I received somewhat of a Statement also with buy out charges. I told Mr. Grenier that we should be working with all three States Maine,Mass and CAlifornia attorney general to get these sleaze bags as he called them.

He got real quiet and I offered no more comments trying to trap him. I don't know how these people sleep at night. I'm not paying a dam dime more.

They are willing to accept a buy out

LeaseComm still up to old practice. I called as suggested by BBB of Woburn,Mass. and got the same run around. They are willing to accept a buy out of $325.00 from original of $2,100.00 but they put you on hold while they look up your file and talk to their supervisor. I asked the person I talked to explain the settlement and he had a whole different explaination than what was listed on the BBB site under their Company name and I told him that. Well he talked to his supervisor- came back and said so you're willing to make a settlement and of course I say no, I don't owe anything. He say's we're willing to accept the buy out of $325.00 due in 15 days. I tell him he needs to send me some paperwork and he gets huffy stating either I agree today or I will still owe $2,100.00. I say - explain these charges and he gets even more huffy and said he's not going to send me any paper work unless I agree. I say I'm not agreeing to anything I want to know why you are willing today to accept $325.00 on a $2,100.00 lease you say I owe. He tells so you don't want to agree to the $325.00 buy out and tells me to have a nice day. Same old stuff. I have now e-mailed BBB of California to help me since E-Commerce is also involved with this company and has the same bad dealing reports, although they originally refunded my money because I had brought in the Credit Card Company that was charged each month. I believe someone in these two company's are talking and confering on any dispute and they both should be investigated by all the State Attorney's General in this recent government settlement for further allegations.

A joint investigation conducted by Attorneys General of Mass.,Florida, Illinois, N.Dakota and Texas, the Federal Trade Commision -Northwest Region announced a settlement filed In Suffolk Superior Court on May 29, California. Please go to the Mass., Maine and Vermont BBB and read about this under LeaseComm. I e-mailed the BBB to find out if I was on this settlement and they suggested that I call LeaseComm. Here we go. Hope this will update and help those of us that have been cheated by this company. 6/17/03
