Curt from Personal Wealth Academy contacted me; once he was aware of the police report I filed, and the FTC complaint I sent, he agreed to refund my money. following our phone call I received a hold harmless contract from him asking me to sign if I wanted my money back. (This was not mentioned during our conversation) It stated I would not contact legal entities local or international nor would I publicly state anything negative about them.
Since I had already filed police reports when they originally refused to refund, I did not sign the agreement. I waited the 5 days my credit card company stated it would take and the charge did not post to my account. (my credit line was tied up that whole time) So long story short, a lot of headache and I have only lost time and no money.
Today I received a phone call from Curt regarding this post with threats of legal action for defaming the company and a request to recant my story. I will not recant, only bring things current, as this truly did happen and it is unfortunate that I had to take many hours out of my day, have my credit card canceled and a new one issued where if they had just said sure our policy is refund within 72 hrs it has been less than 24 hrs thank you good bye then all would have been good.
Also if they were so legit then why would you need a hold harmless agreement agreeing not to contact legal entities or publish anything bad against the company? Hmm not sure so just beware if you are doing business online and if your gut says something is up, listen to it. Thank goodness I live in America where freedom of speech and truth live strong.
