June 15, 2018 TO REX : I am responding to your rambling, nightmarish, pice of crap you call a "General Comment". You go for miles and miles, talking about a mystical investment thing that sounds rat-trap nutso, and then out of nowhere, you come out with some more staggeingly low I Q stuff : " You don't know much about business ", like you're my MBA degree counsellor ar Stanford University, or at Canrnegie - Mellon. My STRONG suggestion is, that you find something to do in life.. because you have NOTHING, NOW. HES Grove, OK

Hello, This is an unaggressive response to the gentleman who wrote about Legal Shield and the two owners. First question, I always ask, is prior to this relationship, have you ever been self employed Was this opportunity successful? I graduated FSU working 45 hours a week and 12 hours a quarter. This was a Restaurant Franchise with 13 stores in FLA, $52 million in revenue and 1500 employees . Most my life was self employed looking for opportunities with a lot of work, I mean 18 hours a day for over 30 years. These opportunities were about identifying and taking advantage of these, there was no luck, it was always paying attention. There were 6 of these businesses, my largest investment was 350.00. The different companies involved annual revenues from $500,000 to $4 billion . 99% of all Americans walked right by the same opportunity but were to busy working 9 - 5 Mon - Fri. My friends have been worth $25,000 to $500million. I agree with this gentleman that most of the rich trampled over many average American bodies to make their money. These are not the smartest people just self centered and greedy. In regards to Harland and Rip Mason. They both had differing objectives. Harland started the company and was successful for 37 years.
His responsibility was to keep his customers and associates satisfied to be profitable When the acquisition was made for $650 million and the group added another $650 million, just a group of complete morons would have done this. Unless your completely unaware of exactly what Direct Marketing is, you will not understand that SCAM Direct Marketing are lucky to make it 3 years. The difference is Rip Masons responsibility is much larger. This was no longer a Family Business but a part of a Capital Organization whose primary intent is to buy companies with consistent and large cash flows.This keeps their investments running 24/7 I worked for the Largest Independent Living Communities in the world. This happened 5 years ago and it became quickly understood this organization was all about the money and not the residents. The Carlsons sold for $4 billion. 2% of employees approve of the existing CEO. How much longer do they have?
By the way, I was involved with a Direct Marketing Company out of Memphis that went from $20 million annual sales to $500 million in 7 years. I earned over $1million during this time. If this gentleman spent $300,000 to become an executive Director with Legal Shield which is no where near the money I spent, maybe $50,000. Unfortunately sir, you do not have much of a business background. What I do agree with is many of these companies do not educate people on how to build a business. This was not the case with my associates, A lot of higher earners set their associates up for failure because what you usually hear is, just go out and talk to a lot of people and money just falls from the sky. Whatever you do now if you find the right Direct Marketing company with the right product you can make good money. Be prepared to work hard and most importantly consistency, you can build a decent $60,000 year income Only 20% of people who follow the plan will make it. Only because they have not been trained properly or just don't have the work effort I have used their product least a dozen times for things my regular attorney would have charged roughly $10,000 for and my prepaid bill was $2500 25 less. Most companies work hard to take care of the people we service and the customers. I'm going to Philly tomorrow and feel will be taking my membership back and an associate position. My apologies for your unfortunate experience, The person actually responsible for this happening would be the call center manager. Were all human and make mistakes and unless you called up cursing and yelling, give the money back to make you happy. This sort of thing doesn't happen often and my years tell me to make you happy and move forward. (((redacted)))

Before we do business here, I want to give all the thanks and praise to Mr. Ed Magedson, without whose long, long hours, and his sticking to his principles of Consumer Justice, we would noit have this avenue.
This is a not-so-polite response so the JACK-A$$ who says he a WORLD AUTHORITY of IDENTITY THEFT, but unfortunately, he parked his brains on the door - step. With his common-sense, pre-supposing he had any.
YOU JERK: Do you think I am both STUPID AND BLIND ? All of the nice list of factoids you were so superbly kind enough to give me, I KNEW!!! YOU ARE A JERK. Every single, little item, was made clear to me. But for one simple fact: those "TITLES", didn't come to me but way down the road. I don't give one d**n that you were some little punk-arse that was on some little committee. SO WHAT ? DOES THAT PUT A DIME IN MY POCKET ? YOU STUPID JERK.
I was SOLD A BILL OF GOODS, YOU ENORMOUS TWIT. What the H.E. double hockey-sticks do you think I am talking about ? The price of crack cocaine in New Zealand ? Why don't you pull your pin-head out of your arse, and THINK !!! You talk like a man who fell out of a HOLE, and into a TREE.
When will you paid whores for Ralph S. "Rip" Mason, STOP defending him ? The jerk-off RIP MASON is a scammer who actually is good at doing his crimes. Unlike you. You defend these whores, yet, you've never made a dime in your life. Ralph Mason (Uncle Rip) is not laughing at me, you gutless little troll.
He's laughing at YOU. WAKE UP.

To the poor, unfortunate, self-deceived, acrimonious, kool-aid drinker whjo has been so "kind" to write this " Just the facts " bul@#$%t
Who do you think you are rebutting, my stupid friend ? An idiot ? Did you actually read my content? Or are you so involved in drinking your cyanide kool-aid that you are willing to make an A$$ of yourself, no matter what ?
Are you so sold on Harland Stonecipher, and his Messiah complex, that you have sold yourself on PPL/Legal Shield, no matter who they hurt ?
What you fail to see, because the cyanide has sickened not only your brain, but also your soul, is that HARLAND STONECIPHER is Laughing not only at me, and other victims like me, but mostly at you ! Why ? Because you have ACTUALLY FALLEN for Stone-cipher's kool-aid cure ! Yes, you, jerk-off ! YOU ! The false messiahs that the Bible talks about ? They're here ! Now ! They don't carehow they get to you, kool-aid drinker. How is not the point. It's never been the point. It's the WHY. And, that why, is your poor, miscreant mind, that is willing to buy into anything that glitters.
Well, my poor kool-aid drinker: it ain't gold. It's fool's-gold !!!
Let this little love letter be a fool's advice: DO YOU REALLY THINK I CARE that Stonecipher's little business model is another MLM ? NO. What is it that I am complaining about ? You'd know, kool-aid drinker, if you had bothered to read what I wrote, but you didn't bother....and Stonecipher's little apprentice devils and kindergarten-level tempters are laughing their arses off at you because the crap you wrote is tangible, palpable proof, that your " road of good intentions " is your particular road to HELL.
I don't care one bit about PPL's business model. But I spent TIME, MY TIME, and a little of my money ( and it does not make any difference how much much money, because I PAID what they asked: it's called a contract for performance, cyanide drinker). And the fact that I was DECEIVED, kool-aid drinker, is the point !!!
When a party sells me a bill of good and services, I d**n well expect one thing - DELIVERY. Ponder that, if you are capable.
And leave us grown-ups to the business of grown-ups.

Hi,
After reading your report I felt some clarification was needed. It is unfortunate you feel you have been taken by legal shield. I do not agree. I believe you may have misunderstood the plan that was sold to you or did not read all the literature that is available to you on the subject. I know what they give you, I am a member.
I am considered an expert on the resolution of Identity Theft have assisted the House of Representative in Drafting two laws that were passed and entered into legislation. Ran my own resolution company for many years on the matter of ID theft and have assisted attorneys in their litigation on many occasions as well as law enforcement and am enrolled in Legal Studies going on to Law School. I have several associates that have legal shield and are very happy with the results. Which is only one reason why I recently agreed to become an associate.
Yes, it is a multilevel marketing program, however it is not just based on sales but persistancy. It does not pay an associate to sign up someone just to make a sale for a month. The reward does not start unless the person stays. The company promotes that to each associate they want you as a customer to stay. It may be true that the "used car salesman" did not know the product or all of what is covered and may not have conveyed that information properly to you. But whatever the salesman failed to explain, legal shield provided to you all the necessary information for you to use the plan to its fullest when you signed up. You would receive this both by mail and by email if you provided an email address. Your responsibility starts at reading that information, contacting the company with any questions if you do not have a personal representative. When you built these relationships with the provider law firm on the phone, you would have been upset if they did not call back, obviously that was not the problem. You must have been happy with the letters they drafted for you. All of this, from what you describe, could have cost you well into the thousands for the work they already did under the plan.
It seems from your comments, your standard plan coverage ended when you needed to move this into court. At this time, they will refer you to a lawyer experienced in the field you need representation in for a negotiated rate at a 25% discount. I would think if the provider law firm attempted to represent you in a matter they have little experience in that may be considered malpractice. Would you really want someone on your case that is not qualified to fight the fight? I would not.
From your comments, it seems you received the legal plan as sold; of $17. This entitles you to Unlimited access to attorneys to talk about any legal issue, moving violations and issues of the IRS with restrictions as to the amount of time and only returns since you have become a member, letters to be drafted usually 2 a month (there are conditions) and they will read and advise on a maximum of 10 pages of any legal document. It also allows a spouse and children under the coverage. In addition you get a free Will drafted for you and one for the spouse of only $20 additional, which can be amended from time to time. That is quite a bit for $17 dollars a month. If you add the ID Theft Guard to the plan it will only cost an additional $9.95 or $19.95 depending on the plan you want and the coverage you desire. Personally, I think the ID Theft plan is incredible, I could not do what they provide for that price.
Anything you buy comes with terms and conditions. It is not just up to a salesperson to tell you that, it is the responsibility of the individual to read the information provided, ask questions when they do not understand something. I'm sure it became a concern when it would cost you out of pocket to defend your position. But if you were not happy, all you had to do is cancel the following month. The agreement is based on a month to month, not long term. You received the services that you were entitled to, but apparently you felt you were entitled to more. From what I read in your comments it seems you were given just what your contract provided and what legal shield promised when you signed up.
The confusion is unfortunate, I believe in the program and that they provide what they represent, but I read all the details before I signed up as a member and after. If you are paying for representation now and quit legal shield, you would not be receiving the 25% discount, that is unfortunate too.

HELLO, EVERYONE !!
Before we get down to business, we need to do first things, FIRST. FIRST: I need to, perforce, give all the praise and give the credit where the credit is HUGELY due:
TO: Mr. Ed MAGEDSON, without whose very hard work makes any of this impossible. But it is POSSIBLE, due to Ed Magedson's stamina, guts, long hours of hard work, and bearing up under the ridiculous   bu@@l$h34t he has to tolerate to do this advocacy work.
This is my 2nd addendum to my original RIPOFF REPORT regarding the CRIMINAL GANG known as TERRACOM WIRELESS, 401 East Memorial Road, in Good Old Oklahoma City. Now, there are quite a few special people that have come from OKC, like my Father, Lon Chaney, Jr., and other fine folks. But, not the crew that helm the GANG OF ORGANIZED CRIMINALS that call them- selves, TERRACOM.
I name the following criminals: Richard Yurich, D. Schmick, and another piece of crapola I can't remember right at the moment.
Anyhow, I am done yelling for the moment. But....ONLY for the moment. And again, Ed M....God Bless and Keep you and your fine family. Addendum to potential TERRACOM victims: DON'T be a jack-a$$ !! Take your business to Anyone Else but TERRACOM.

TO THE JERK-OFF IN BEVERLY HILLS: You know it's nice people like you, that make the
world go around for me. From 1,500 miles away, you think you know one thing
about me, the business I do, or anything about my life. " I should look in a mirror..."
In real life, which is something I doubt very much you know anything about, people, most
people don't have ALL the money in the world to do everything they'd love to do. So,
when a "deal" comes along, you go for it. Now, you take YOU, for example.
You are a gutless jerk-off who has inherited a ton of dough from Daddy and Mommy,
and you don't have the SLIGHTEST CLUE what it's like to have to do anything for
yourself. DO you even pay your own bills ? I'll bet you've got 24/7 maid service,
drive a $140,000 car that Mommy bought you, have a 1,000 square foot closet where
you can store all your fashions, to wear to the six or seven hundred parties you're
gonna go to in the next 30 days.
So you see, we know you. You literally have nothing better to do with your
sorry excuse for an existence, than badger people like me, who DO have to
get up in the morning, and do something to actually ADD something to the
American Economy, so we can purchase something that your Mommy and Daddy
make in a big factory somewhere, probably in Asia, that will continue to keep
a BIG MAN like you in designer jeans, and single malt scotch.
NO: a jack-off like you cannot possible relate to a real man, because you've
never had to be one. So, I suggest that you continue in your dream world,
in your posh estate in Beverly Hills, 90210, and let the real men ( and women) of
this world tend to business. And you ? Why don't you follow your own advice, and have a little look in your own mirror, at your half-baked, crappy half-a-man, and then
let us all know in a further post how you are going to solve all our problems.
As long as you can hide behind the mask of anonymity, you can take cheap shots
as people. But, in the real world, you're nothing but a third-rate loser and moral coward.

TO THE NICE PEOPLE WHO WISH TO CONTRADICT MY COMPLAINT:
ONE: THIS IS NOT PERSONAL. My complaint is about the activities of a publicly traded American company, who has made $300,000,000 dollars selling a product/service that they do not intend to deliver.
TWO: THIS IS NOT A COMPLAINT that pertains to a single individual, or their families. This is not personal.....this is BUSINESS.
THREE: IN AMERICA, when you advertise a service, and you take person's hard-earned money, then you DELIVER the service you sold, or you be kind enough, and and ETHICAL enough, to refund that person's money. And then apologize for not delivering the service that
you pledged to deliver.
FOUR: YOU CAN SEE that I used the term and word, " PLEDGE ". I use that term intentionally, due to the fact that when the law is involved, lives are affected. Sometimes, lives are ruined.
FIVE: IF YOU WISH TO CONTRADICT my complaint, please have the simple character enough to identify yourself, or, if you don't have moral and ethical fiber and the dime's worth of guts to identify yourself, then at least write something that might just accidentally give us a remote clue that you have a brain, or heart and soul and that you belong to the human race. Don't just post an childish insult, and then fool yourself into thinking that you are a real person.
SIX: PRE-PAID LEGAL is a company that is not involved in fruit and vegetable sales. Or even airplane parts. Or, shirts and pants made in The Republic of Taiwan, by ten year old girls who are supporting a sick Auntie. PPL is selling a pipe dream.
SEVEN: Therefore, have an ounce of guts when you post a "rebuttal" behind my complaint. Say something real, or, I will petition ED M. to be kind enough to remove your so-called "rebuttal".
Your choice.

Have you considered that PPL might not be the problem?
If you had 3 cases, issues with the landlord, his girlfriend, the people at PPL, the agent who sold you PPL, the lady who gave you the attorney referrals.....Geesh, never mind, the list speaks for itself.
IMHO your report reads like someone who complains about every single detail in your life. You must be very difficult to be around. It seems as though nothing makes you happy and I can help but say that even if PPL won all your cases, got you a settlement and did everything right, I think you'd complain because they didn't roll out the red carpet.
In investigating PPL/LegalShield , This is what I found- They've been around 42 years, they have an A rating with the BBB and have 4.2 million satisfied customers.
I'm sorry, but a company with a record like that can only achieve it by honest means and clearly with 4.2 satisfied customers, obviously they aren't in the business of scamming people.
I will say Thank you for your post because you've succeeded in bringing them to my attention and after investigating them on my own and seeing their record, I want the service!
Seriously......unlimited access to unlimited legal advice for $17 per month! I get my Will and Healthcare Power of Attorney done, 60 hours of trial representation in my first year.....
Sign me up!
And Thanks again!
