Complaint Review: Quixtar - Other

I have a philosophy (not sure if I spelled that right, so forgive if I miss spell anything)in my life. Every part of my life is clear and transparent. If you ask me a question, you are going to get a direct honest answer. I am not this way out of spite or hatefullness, I am this way because I believe you should always tell the truth. One doesn't have to be bruital when telling the truth either, just have tact and be kind.

Especially the buisness aspect of my life. I believe in total honesty. And today I had an encounter with a Quixtar rep. I learned that not everyone, even though they present themselves to be a Christian which I whole heartly am, has that same philosophy.

A dear family member of mine called me and asked me if I wanted to be apart of an 'opprotunity,'about a buiness she and her husband were starting. Immediately, having been ripped off by Primerica, I smelled a scam coming. Almost any one that uses the term, 'opprotunity,'has something up their sleve.

I asked her about her company and she put her 'mentor,' on the phone. He asked if he could just have 15 minutes of my time and he would explain to me what they do. I told him I would do some research about his company and then I would contact him if I were interested. He asked me that when I do some research, that I use a reliable source such as IBO, or the Better Buisness Bureau. I said I would and I did. Being that I am an honest person, I did go to the Better Buisness Bureau and here of coarse! Even on the BBB site, they had complaints filed about them and as one can see, they are all over this one too!

But, I did however set up a meeting because I was concerned about my cousin being sucked in. I was hopeing to bring some light to the issue so she could see what she was getting into.

So, I met with him and my cousin. He asked if we were ready to start. I said yes and that I have some questions to ask him afterwords. He told me that this meeting was not about question and answers. He said this was about presenting the company and seeing if I was interested. Offended that he would be so rude, I did let him continue on his little quest.

He gave me his sales pitch and that did not explain what the company was about. He asked me if I was interested and I said I that I was interested in how people made money. What did he do to earn this money and who really makes all this money? Of coarse he said it would take way to long to explain to me and that we needed to set a meeting with his mentor to explain it to me.

I pressed for an explination and he became irratible, as did I since I waisted 15 minutes of my life and gas to hear him rattle on about the name of the company but not what they did!

And it is beyond me why I would need another meeting with someone else to figure out what they do? If I go and apply for Wal-Mart, then it only takes one interview to figure out where I will be and what I will be doing for my money.

This guy was so bugus and I was on to him and he figured it out, then totally shut me down. He didn't answer any of my questions and was offensive to me when he figured out I wasn't an easy customer to sell this company to. (By the way, why was he trying to recruit me into this company rather than try and get me to buy products or what ever the heck he sells? I guess he makes more money roping saps into this trap.)

The research I did on this company as well as having a face to face meeting with him just shows me that they are frauds! I am grateful that I found this website before I took any action. Because, I have been a sap before roped in by Primerica with their 'Christian business', and I won't be roped again.

Beware of those who use words like, 'opprotunity,' and that they want to 'meet with you,' before they tell you what it's all about.
