A rep for MSI enter my store, (no solicitors sign up) asking me if I had a charge machine. My first response was no and I don't want one as I had already had a bad experience. He smiled and said oh really, well I assure you that I would never do anything you would be unhappy about and my program is a month to month rental that you can cancel at any time you do not like it or find no need for it. Unfortunately being the kind hearted one I am, knowing everyone likes a sale, I thought I would listen. He made everything sound so great and simple. My point to you is that a person in these fraudulent type sales will say ANYTHING to make a sale. In fact, you so call honest ones are even using us down in our judgment folks now, by just your last line CALL ME! Get a real honest job man! I'll finish my story on the rip off report.

I am NOT an MSI employee, but I am in the industry. There is a reason why the equipment is marked up and/or leased out. It's called PROFIT. The leases are dually beneficial. We sales offices receive more money from a lease, yes, BUT YOU AS MERCHANTS don't have to part with $500.00 plus out of working capital to buy the terminal! PLUS you get a bigger tax write-off on a lease! If you buy you only can depreciate the terminal's cost as a CAPITAL EQUIPMENT PURCHASE. We ISO's aren't ripping you off. There are dishonest reps out there, but I'm not one of them. I resent the bad name that this site is giving to good people in an industry dominated by thieves and liars. If you want an honest rep... CALL ME!!!!
