Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?
I also was scammed into buying a policy from U. S. Fidelis. The price started at $175.00 a month. When I informed them that my husband wouldn't allow that because we didn't have that kind of money, they continued to drop the price until it reached $100.00. We I agreed but said I had to discuss it with him when he got home from work, they informed me that I was not allowed to call back. If I didn't get it then, I wouldn't be allowed to get it. If I wasn't happy or my husband didn't agree, just return the two bottles of liquids that they would be sending me. One for the transmission and one for the gasoline tank.

After my husband came home, he said "NO". So I refused the package like I was told to do and sent a letter explaining the above. They finally credited my account only $75 after stating the full amount would be deposited back in my account. I have contacted my bank and issued a fraud statement and filled out paperwork. My bank is replacing the money. Thank God for U. S. Bank. I also have been advised that no more charges from U. S. Fidelis will be coming out of my account.

U.S. Fidelis lied to me from day one and pressure you into believing that if you don't get it right when you call, then you can't ever get it. Then when I said it was too much, they barter until they get you down to a price you will agree to pay. What a rip-off. Don't mess with them, but if you do, barter good and be forewarned they will go down on the original price just to get you to buy their policy.

Before you do business with US FIDELIS, I BEG YOU TO READ THISI USED TO WORK THERE! I could go into so much more about this company but I am praying that you will read this entire post and it will be enough information to trust that I am doing this in hopes of saving people from being scammed. **** US FIDELIS is now advertising their CAR WARRANTIES on TELEVISION COMMERCIALS**** Please notice that I have backed up this content with web sites from government websites and organizations that protect consumers. I also have links from media sources. PEOPLE DO YOUR HOMEWORK!!!! DO A SEARCH AT THE BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU for DEALER SERVICESTHEY ARE NOW US FIDELIS and they HAVE A GRADE OF ** F ** A+ is the highest, F is the lowest; just like an academic report card. Don't believe me? Go to the Better Business Bureau's website and do a search. If you need to narrow down your search, go to the St. Louis area of the BBB site. Wentzville is on the outskirts of the St. Louis Metro area. They are at 100 Mall Parkway and also 200 Mall Parkway in WENTZVILLE, MO. http://stlouis.bbb.org/WWWRoot/Report.aspx?site=142&bbb=0734&firm=310016763 The BBB has received numerous complaints regarding this extended vehicle service contract broker. Complainants primarily allege difficulty cancelling policies and obtaining refunds, misleading advertisements, misleading, high pressure or improper sales tactics, poor customer service, failure to pay for vehicle repairs, difficulty contacting the company, misrepresentation of coverage, harassing phone calls and failure to remove names from mailing lists. These complaint patterns are reflected in the complaint statistics below. Scroll down to Business Contact and Profile and you will see all the names this company uses. http://stlouis.app.bbb.org/report/310016763?noskin&fax=Y I was shocked when I found out that US Fidelis will be sponsoring Rusty Wallace racing for 35 NASCAR races. Steve Wallace, Rusty's son will be driving the US Fidelis car. I cannot imagine why his business Rusty Wallace Racingwould do business with US Fidelis when they are under investigation by several state Attorney General's; most notably the one in their own stateMissouri. See the link below. Rusty--- go to the Missouri Attorney General Website and to the Better Business Bureau of the St. Louis Area and look who you are dealing with! http://www.consumer.ago.mo.gov/Know_MO/ You will see that they are also US FIDELIS and NAWS and NATIONAL AUTO WARRANTY SERVICES; and THE ATKINSON GROUP OF COMPANIES. The company changed its name to US FIDELIS because Of bad publicity. They have been investigated and fined by the MISSOURI ATTORNEY GENERAL'S office as well as ARIZONA'S and no doubt several others. http://ago.mo.gov/newsreleases/2008/030608.htm The name of the company at that time..National Auto Warranty Services of Wentzville, MO Postcards sent out from Dealer Services/NAWS/US Fidelis can be seen in the links below.They had a special group of employees that worked calls that came in as a result of these cards. 90% of the people who called were under the impression that these cards were from their car manufacturer. I know; as I worked in this group for about 3 months. Channel 13 News in Jefferson City, MO: http://www.connectmidmissouri.com/news/news_story.aspx?id=87338 Florida Attorney General investigatingHere is a report on Channel 6 in Miami, FL http://www.nbc6.net/ciu/18211518/detail.html Reports from MSNBC---the first link has been aired on MSNBC during the last few weeks of December 2008: http://www.nbcconnecticut.com/traffic_autos/autos/Bogus_Car_Warranty_Offers_Invading_Mailboxes_All__National_.html http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/23147777/ ALL OF THE ABOVE ARE reports on the company who has changed their name to US FIDELISNotice the cards are all the same. Here is a document on the Missouri Secretary of State's website to prove that this company is in fact owned by the Atkinson brother's: http://www.sos.mo.gov/imaging/18755163.pdf Notice the 100 Mall Parkway address; sometimes the address will be 200 Mall Parkway; depending on the correspondence and if they are using National Auto Warranty Services or US Fidelis. Here is something else..the building that NAWS/DEALER SERVICES/US FIDELIS is in the owners also opened an alcohol free nightclub called EXODUS. Funded no doubt by the money they have made using unethical and possibly illegal business practices. Darain and Cory Atkinson own US Fidelis in Wentzville, Missouri. Out of the blessings from their business, it was their desire to do something significant that would honor God and be purposeful to the community. From this desire, the EXODUS concept was formed. http://exodusstl.com/documents/staff.html This statement almost sickens me. I have seen first-hand the unethical business tactics used to make the owners money. It would be better fitting to say the Business practices are sleazy and underhanded. They target the elderly and undereducated people and use strong arm business tactics. How can they keep a clear conscience? Moreover, sales people acquire banking and credit card information by creating a sense of urgency.Buy it now or you won't get this great offer again. This is the standard sales tactic. The sales people avoid informing the potential customers of the fine print in the warranty such as ridiculously long waiting transition periods before the warranty can actually be used. Because the sales people work for commission only, they will avoid They will process the banking or credit card information before a customer gives the ok to continue so that they (the salesperson) will have the deal. This is very common towards the end of the month when the salesperson needs to reach a level for a bonus or to make more commission (they are paid per deal). The Atkinson brothers also provide space for their church in the building. It is non-denominational and is called The Element'. Ironically, the majority of the US Fidelis management attends THE ELEMENT church. This church is very much like a cult, focusing on money and success. Watch the QUICK TIME presentation at the website below. There is a married couple on this video in which the husband is an assistant manager and the wife is a manager at the newly named US Fidelis. They are the bi-racial couple (and please note that I am only stating that they are bi-racial to point out who they are.I am not being prejudiced.
