I had paid for and received a desk top from FAI (Financing ALternatives, INC.) around spring or early summer of 2005. I thought, why not a laptop? Entered a contract in November of 2006, bi -monthly statements from my checking account ($187/ month) from November until July.
In July of 2007, I continued to get billed bi monthly for the whole amount of the computer, ($2266.48) but the monthly statements stopped coming, and I did not receive a computer, or a refund. Not even a letter explaining the circumstances.
Every so often, I tried to contact them, to no avail. Life went on, as it does, and in going through some old paperwork during a move, I came across the FAI papers, and decided to investigate further. Found out that the company was sued for fraud in July of 2007, by the Attoerney General of Virginia.
I am still holding out hope for some sort of compensation, however.

I can confirm this kind of situation is true!! So buyers please beware!!!! I worked there for a while, started out in the sales department & moved on into the purchasing department for which I was given the tasks of ordering/shipping computers for the customers & entering paperwork.
I seen this type of thing happen to a lot of customers & without knowing the real reasons of why we were not able to ship out their computers when they were completely paid in full, we were just told that the funds were not there to purchase the computers.
There were occasions where the computer would be on back order, but mostly I'm assuming because the money was all gone. The poor customer service department was left to deal with rightful, irate customers & were told to just keep telling them it was on back order.
I felt so bad for the customers & what they were doing to them was wrong, so I decided to had no choice but quit; it was completely against my beliefs of how to treat other people.
To the people that have suffered: I hope you find joy in knowing he has been put out of business & was ordered by the attorney general to pay back around 13.6 million dollars!! After learning this was the second get rich quick business he started I was glad to hear they finally shut him down!
