Complaint Review: PhonyDiploma - PhoneyDiploma - DiplomaCompany - NextDayDiplomas - RealisticDiplomas - Richmond Virginia

 Hello Everyone. Due to my failing health I am going to make this my last report. It has been over 3 months now since receiving my duplicate high school diploma and I have not had anyone from any law enforcement agency come calling on me. In my opinion there is no truth to the report filed here. I got excellent service from a great company. If you are looking to replace an old and torn diploma this is the company to call. Many thanks to the folks at Phony Diploma for all they have done. I also want to say that I am in no way working for this company. I am just a satisfied customer. God Bless.

Well I made it to week 10. I just spent the last tens days in the hospital so I missed week 9. But I can report that I have had no visitors from law enforcement since I got my replacement diploma. I hope everyone had a wonderful New Years. Now I'll go back and do some recouping in bed. God Bless

Merry Christmas to everyone. Its been eight weeks since I order my replacement diploma and no visitors from law enforcement. I'll keep everyone informed for as long as my health allows. God Bless

Well, here we are at week 7 since I purchased my replacement diploma and no calls from law enforcement. I want everyone to know that I am not associated with this company. I am doing this for them because they treated me great and did a good job for me. Ive even got in touch with old class mates that I have not talked or seen in 40 years. Ill keep doing this for as long as I can. Every one stay well and God bless.

Well, its week 6 and I have not had any visitors from any law enforcement agencies. Sorry I'm a little late. My health is not the greatest. I hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving. I'll keep you posted but it may not be on time. But I made a promise and I will do my best to keep it. God Bless

 Here we are in week 5 since I got my replacement diploma and I'm happy to report that I have had no visitors from law enforcement. I will keep this up for as long as I can. My health is getting worse.

But I hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving. God Bless

 Its been four weeks since I recieved my replacement diploma. No FBI or law enforcement have come calling.

I have been getting a little behind because of my health but I will keep writing these updates as long as I can.

 Hi Everyone,

Well here it is week 3 and still no FBI or any other law enforcement has come calling about my replacement diploma.

More updates to follow.

 Its been two weeks since I received my replacement diploma and I still have not had any contact with the FBI or any other law enforcement agency. I will keep everyone updated like I promised.

 Its been 1 week since I received my replacement diploma and there has been no contact from the FBI or any other law enforcement agency. I will keep everyone informed as to my progress.

 I purchased a replacement diploma from this company. First let me tell you that I had excellent service. I saw this report after I purchased my diploma replacement and it bothered me that I may be breaking the law. I am disabled and my health is failing. I'll be retiring in March 2014. The only things I have left are my memories. So when I found my year book and diploma ruined from flooding I decided to replace them.

I call the company and talked to the customer service rep Steave. He was very nice and assured me that they were not part of the the FBI or any law enforcement agency. So this is what Iam going to do.

Every week up until I retire I will update everyone. If the FBI come calling I will let everyone know it. I have plenty of time on my hands to do this so lets see what happens.

You know, it was extremely irresponsible of the company.  I don't know whether this is a particular company set up by "FBI" or whomever trying to lure unsuspecting buyers, but I can tell you this for sure: it was a very untimely purchase, and I can tell you why.

For future reference for those thinking about placing an order for a "backup" or "novelty" diplomas, you should be aware that to avoid a lawsuit, these companies have come to an agreement with many universities that they will no longer produce any novelty items bearing their names.  These same strict rules have been forced upon all novelty diploma manufacturers - in the U.S.

I know this sounds like something that should have and would have been an issue with the law a loooong time ago.  Well, it's not.  It was placed into effect very recently.

I can't tell you what to do if you still want to get this "diploma" even though there are ways around it; it really doesn't take that much creative thinking actually.  However, responsible companies will tell you whether or not they can create anything in the name of your university or if they have an agreement with that school.

To prove which companies are responsible, I've emailed several well-known internet companies easily googled who produces "novelty" diplomas in the U.S.  I asked each of them to create something specific for this diploma for a school I know cannot have diplomas created by novelty diploma companies.  However, to my disappointment, only ONE came back with an honest answer.  I don't want to post the name of the online company because well, that'll just be like free advertising for a lost cause.  Anyways, this company who said no to me repeatedly told me no - we cannot do it and neither can any other novelty diploma company in the U.S., and if they say they can then you will personally get in trouble.  I'm paraphrasing, but that's pretty much what they said.  I even tempted them to work around it (like printing the 1st letter of the school - it sounds stupid, I know), but the answer was still no.

So 1 company replied out of 5.  This tells you how much they care about you or what the consequences can do to your life. 

Well, good news is, not ALL schools have come to any agreements with any companies.  Therefore, go ahead and try to ask some of these companies and see what they say.  Remember to email several companies if you still want to give it a go.  Otherwise, if you've already graduated from a university, give a call to them and they'll order you a backup, although it generally costs over $400.  But better safe than sorry - what's saving a few hundred bucks when you're going to end up like this unfortunate person who unknowingly lost his job because of this trap?  And if you just want to trick someone, well, just print it yourself.  Like I said, it really doesn't take a whole lot of creative thinking.
