National Financial Publications ripoff pay a fee for a book which will tell you where to send more fees to find work Slidell Louisiana
I am writing simply to say that National Financial Publications is nothing more than a ripoff.
Currently, I am un-employed student who was looking for a way to earn extra money while working from the comfort of my own home and also creating my own hours. It seemed like a good idea, so I called the add in the paper. When I spoke to the representitive, I was told that once I paid for my booklet that I would be guaranteed work. I was never told that I had to send an additional fee to get signed up with these companies.
The booklet I received was $49.95, it was a little paperback that had a listing of all the different companies in it. And in order for me to start receiving work, I had to send anywhere from $30 to $40 to receive their products. After I saw that, I was in shock because I was not told this information over the phone.
I then tried to call NFP to get my money back, but was unsuccessful. When I called the number, which was long distance by the way, I got an answering machine that told me to call back during regular business hours, which I did but still did not get through. I was ripped off. I would NOT recommend this company to anyone. So now I'm stuck with this booklet, out of $50 and no way of getting my money back.
In order for me to get my money back, I had to get in writing from these companies that no work was available and send it to NFP. I thought that was a bunch of crap.I would never in a million years, recommend this company to anyone.

Misunderstanding, I apologize sincerely

I apologize sincerely that Sherwynna has had such a bad experience. Our company strives for the utmost in customer satisfaction and it disturbs me that Sherwynna has slipped through the cracks. What Sherwynna purchased was a thoroughly research listing of companies that provide the opportunities to work from home. Each company has passed our requirements and will provide exactly what we promised. The fees that Sherwynna mentioned are associated with home assembly companies. Home assembly companies provide materials and directions for products for the employee to assemble and return for a profit. The fee request is a material deposit fee and each company requiring that deposit also refunds that deposit once the products are returned. Originally, the companies did not require any deposit. This changed because individuals would receive the materials and then, for one reason or another, decided they were unable to complete the product and then did not return the materials. In order for the companies to protect themselves from this, they began requesting a deposit. In the publication that Sherwynna received are also many other opportunities that do not require assembly or deposits. I am saddened that she was not able to get in contact with a customer service representative that would have assisted her with finding exactly what she was looking for. If you are reading this Sherwynna, please write to [email protected] and provide your customer information along with this letter, and I will make sure that you are issued a refund immediately. We only wish to provide individuals with honest opportunities to work from home. I apologize that we were unable to help Sherwynna.
