MBF Leasing / Northern Leasing / Merchant Services / Fiona Walshe Creditcard Processing SCAM San Jose California

Like hundreds of others small businesses got rip-off by MBF leasing/Northern Leasing, Fiona Walshe came to my store sell me the credit card processing merchant account. She promised lower rate, no contract, cancel any time if not satisfy. Even I already own processing equipment for my previous merchant account, she said it won't work for their program; I had to lease one from her. Thinking I can cancel the account anytime and wanting to give it a try, so I went along. Then she had me signed few pages of application for merchant account service. Few months later I found they over charge me and cancel the service with them. Then MBF leasing starts harass me with 10 to 15 phone calls a day. Now I realized when I signed the application, without disclose to me, she had mix-in one page of equipment leasing agreement with MBF. If I been told there was a 48 months no cancel leasing contract to signed and with two monthly payments are enough to buy the whole machine, obviously I wouldn't signed the contract.

Now I found out at least six businesses in the same building where I am in San Francisco fell for the same scam. And hundreds of more are victimized by MBF all over the country. In New York there is a class action lawsuit against MBF / Northern leasing.
