Transcredit Financial-Anthony Lawton, Karl Parker, Julius Huviot, Kevin Osborne Ripoff, I lost money too Bellevue Washington

I am glad to see I am not the only one who has been ripped off by these schmucks. I even investigated them on the net when they had a website up and it all seemed on the up and up. My loan was for $5,000 and was asked to submit a security/insurance type payment of $770.80 due to my credit history.

Long story short, lost my job and was unemployed for two years (hence the poor credit history). Well sent my money via money gram to A Jonetta in Canada per Anthony Lawton's instructions. I sent the moneygram on 7/16/05. Anthony told me the money should be in my account no later than 7/19/05. Well on 7/19 I called Anthony to ask why the money was not wired into my account. He then transferred me to a Kevin osborne who said I needed an additional $770.80.

I told him I don't think so. When I initially spoke to Anthony a week prior to me sending the money gram, he said there would be no initial fees/costs. I told Mr. Osborne I wanted a refund. He told me the refund would take about 7-10 process. I called the next day and got a Micheal in customer service because I wanted to know how the refund was coming to me. He said by certified check and it will be mailed out on 8/1/05. Well, went to call Transcredit Financial on Friday the 5th to see what happened, got the message of 'Thank you, goodbye".

I then sent an e-mail and faxes, still no response. Getting all my paperwork together to send off to the Washington State Attorney General, and the Department of Banking.

I too am out the money I sent and now further in debt because of these jerks. I am behind on bills, and owe a few people a few dollars who were kind enough to help me with the required deposit. I am being polite by calling them jerks, but you can imagine the real curse words I would love to use.

I am glad I found this site, but unfortunately it was a bit too late. I am not sure if we can recover our lost money, but at least I feel better by getting my experience out to others so others will not be taken advantage of. You can bet I am going to conduct a more thorough background check on any company I plan on doing any tyoe of financial business with. I plan on calling the states attorney general and finance departments.
