I opened a store in Oct 2010 and requested credit card machine services to Gus Roman (transfirst). He told me that I could transfered or cancel the lease in the case that I sell the business or go out of business. 
A few months later I had to sell the business for just inventory because I was about to go out of business and lose it all.
The new owners didn't want Northern Leasing Systems, because they said that what they charge was outrageous and that they had their own service. I canceled with Transfirst (which went well) but NEIL SCOTT FROM NORTHERN LEASING SYSTEMS, INC is harrasing me with letters, phone calls for the last 9 months. The last letter states that I have to pay the amount of $1436 plus fees and taxes or he will report me to the Credit Bureau. I have also received letters saying that they will go to legal procedures. I am currently unemployed and have no money to buy food sometimes and I cannot afford to pay this. 

 Northern Leasing Systems trick people into signing a 4 year lease that at the end you end up paying an outrageous amount of money, plus they debit your account when ever they want.
They have one case pending (#101059/04) in the Supreme court of the State of New York. This company should not be allowed to conduct business.

 I do not know what to do, so please somebody help me with this situation.
These people take advantage of innocent people that do not know about these things.
They have a lease of like 6 pages that you cannot even understand what it says.
It looks like some crook attorney prepared it.
I HONESTLY NEED ASSISTANCE IN THIS MATTER. THANK YOU.

Northern Can Be Beaten

You need to surf the internet. World Law Direct has a database of lawyers who fight NL. Even if they've gotten a judgment, the fight is not over.

Equipment leases can be abusive

AUTHOR: LA Marketing Genius - (United States of America)

POSTED: Friday, October 05, 2012
Many card processing companies really make their profit on equipment leases.  We are a merchant advocate and we put
merchants in a place where no slimy processor can ever take advantage of them.  In 15 minutes or less I can teach
you the fundamentals that you need to know on how to manage your credit card processing and put all the confusing rates on an apples to-apples basis for true cost comparison. I also give you my word that I will not try to sell you anything.  Please call me and  I guarantee that you will learn things that no one else has been willing to tell you.  Thanks! 
Sincerely, Dave  310-409-3600.

Northern Leasing can be fought

AUTHOR: Beat Northern Leasing - (United States of America)

POSTED: Tuesday, October 02, 2012
There is a range of steps to take in fighting NL and its cronies. It is a legal battle and it calls for an attorney. Yes, attorneys are expensive. The key is to beat  NL at its own game. I can help you.

The NL game assumes that victims will not invoke their legal rights. Moreover, if you do invoke those rights, NL will likely file suit. However, NL is not in business to chase debtors. NL relies on the victims not fighting, which results in a default judgment, which they then enforce.

If NL can take a default judgment, they will. When they encounter resistance, they make a calculated decision. If the defense attorney serves them with discovery demands that will cost more to answer than the case is worth, then the case simply dies. They're not going to spend $5000 in attorney fees to collect $2000.

I handle these cases for as little as $950.00. 516-242-1453

Assistance with your issue

AUTHOR: standup86 - (United States of America)

POSTED: Friday, January 06, 2012
I am a prior consumer of Northern Leasing Inc. and have had issues trying to cancel even though my equipment has been returned since 11/31/11. The company insists that I have to make one more final payment (in addition to the "final" payment they stated they already took from me). This amt has now doubled. I have been working with The BBB to attempt to resolve the issue and it is helpful so you don't end up just arguing with the company. Give it  shot, I have been battling this since 10/31/11 but intend on filing my complaint on here along with resolving my issue with Northern Leasing. Best of luck to you and and a resolution.
