This company claims to offer work at home opportuntiies. However, based on previous complaints and my own experience A Real Chance Inc. really just want to scam people by taking !10.00 for a criminal background check. Ten dollars may not seem like a lot, but imagine all the people looking for an opportunity to make an honest living by earning extra money or full time income.

The company realizes that people may be willing to pay $10.00 for a background so that bank on this. I asked the company if I could just send a previous background check to them. The answer was not. I was told that they have their own company to handle it. I then asked if I could have a copy of my background check. Again I was told no.

This was the final red flag for me. The first red flag was the organization's website. It claims that it is a nonprofit organization. However, this company charges people $10.00 in order to approve them for a grant. Nonprofits will not ask vulnerable people for money.

Second red flag was the interview. The interview is only ten to fifteen minutes and I can guarantee that whoever applies and interview will get an email stating that the company would like to proceed with the application process. This is where you must pay the 10.00. 

The company stresses that you must pay a $10.00 background check throughout the process. Based on other complaints that you can find online after you pay the 10.00 you will more than likely not get hired. They are taking $10.00 from people knowing that they will not hire the majority of people. Do not waste your time and keep your $10.00 away from these crooks.

Stop with the lies Kimberly

AUTHOR: DontMessWithMe - (USA)

POSTED: Friday, July 22, 2016

I too was taken by this aweful Scam. I was offered employment from A REAL CHANCE INC. After they recieved my $10 for the back ground check I rarely heard from them.

For me its not so much about the ten dollars as much as it is about them having my personal information that I provided for the background check. I wont even mention the thought of have a job and waiting over four months to realize taht these people are not sincere.

 

KIMBERLY RHUE you should be ashamed of yourself!

A Real Chance Incorporated - Back To Work Program

AUTHOR: A Real Chance Inc. - (USA)

POSTED: Monday, July 11, 2016

Hello,

My name is Kimberly and I am the Founder and Director of A Real Chance Incorporated. Seeing complaints and reviews such as this one is very discouraging for me and it hurts me to know that there are individuals out there that do not believe that our intentions are good and that our motivations are pure.

First off, I would like to apologize to the author of this complaint as it is my understanding that this individual had applied for employment with our organization and for one reason or another feels that they were ripped off in some way. Although, we can assure and provide proof that the work from home positions offered are legitimate, we do understand that we do struggle with keeping up with all of the correspondence associated with the on-boarding process and we acknowledge that it is often very difficult to reach anyone over the phone. The recruiting process is very new to our organization and we have experienced many challenges in the implementation of our Back To Work Program However, please know that our effrots are completely legitimate and our motivation is to provide supplemental and/or primary employment to all who are qualified. 

Please note the following points which should help validate the position and the intention of the organization in regards to the Back to Work Program

 

1.) All Background Check Processing Fees Are Reimbursed

As communicated on our website and in many direct correspondences, all work from home applicants that provide(d) payment for the Background Check Processing Fee ($10) receive reimbursement of the fee paid. This is an election that A Real Chance Inc. has taken and is 100% VOLUNTARY. A Real Chance Inc is under no legal obligation to provide this reimbursement but as it is our interest to ensure all of our applicants that our motivations are to help and not to harm, we are glad to provide this reimbursement voluntarily. 

 

For information regarding the reimbursement of the $10 Background Check Processing Fee, feel free to contact our Accounts Payable Department.

 

This information can also be found on our website by the link below:

Please Note:

It is the primary goal and initiative of A Real Chance Incorporated to provide supportive services and programs to all that are in need and it is my personal goal in life is to see that each individual person is provided the opportunity to be successful regardless of their social or economic status. I believe that no matter what your background is or what your social status is, you deserve to be able to provide for yourself and for your family. It hurts and pains me very deeply that many hard working individuals still find themselves in situations where they struggle to survive and provide the necessities to themselves and to their families and for this reason I have dedicated my life to finding ways to provide relief, hope and opportunities to all that find themselves in hardship. A Real Chance Incorporated is not a rich organization and we do not currently have the financial means to provide all of the assistance that is so desperately needed, but we are doing our very best to get there and reach our goals and I for one will never give up on you and I will never give up on anyone that is in need of help.

I am working very closely with the my team here at A Real Chance to iron out any kinks in our processes and we are still growing and learning every day. We appreciate all of the feedback that we receive and I personally make it my priority to ensure that A Real Chance Incorporated is operating as efficiently as posible.

 

Thank you for reading our response and regardless of your personal decision to be supportive or unsupportive of A Real Chance Incorporated, I wish you all the best in your life and I truly hope that you are able to achieve all of your goals of success in your life.

 

Thank you
