Fifteen years ago, I answered a help wanted ad & began to change my life. I entered the world of credit card processing or bank card as those of us in the know would say. I was recruited by a fast-talking pitchman who could have been singing "I represent the Lolly Pop Kids" as he was only about 5 feet tall. His name is Peter Moles. He is currently based out of the Chicago suburb, Oak Brook, Illinois, about 30 miles west of downtown Chicago. When you google "Peter Moles", you'll learn of his earlier criminal exploits as a commodities con man. This is an individual with NO concept of the meaning of words like honesty, integrity, morals or human decency. This man is motivated by a massive sense of entitlement which tells him that it is perfectly acceptable to put his well-being and financial success and that of his family above any law or moral code. He will stand in front of you, claiming that the sky is black & about to release a torrential downpour when in fact, it's a brilliant cerulean blue with bright sunshine. Moles will tell you that he represents First Data Corporation, the payment processing industry leader. But a quick call to their Atlanta, GA headquarters will tell you differently. Moles operates an Illinois corporation, The Merchant Source, Inc. which is just a shell for his nefarious activities. He maintains a loose connection to a company called Card Connect of King of Prussia, PA which IS affiliated with First Data. Card Connect is owned & operated by the Shanahan brothers of Pennsylvania and I was told that once they are fully aware of the scope of Moles' illegal behavior, they will probably terminate their relationship with him. This is Peter Moles fifth incarnation in the bankcard industry. His last scam ran from 2009-2013 where he affiliated himself with Retriever Merchand Solutions of South Holland, IL and National Processing Company. The come-on to sales people is simple: Pay $120 and attend our 3 day training in Oak Brook and we'll make you an independent agent for the industry leader and start depositing thousands of dollars to your bank account weekly. Moles will tell you that he will assign a telemarketer directly to you, guaranteeing you 3-5 qualified appointments per day. The only sales rep getting that many appointments is Moles' 19 year old son, Jack. And why would young Jack be the poster boy? Perhaps a quick Google search of Moles' oldest son Jonothon will answer that question. Jonathon was the heir apparent until his drugging & raping of an underaged girl landed him in prison in Wisconsin. Peter Moles and Card Connect International will find ANY way they can to get out of paying commissions to salespeople, to honoring their word to reimburse customers for various charges and just about any other slimy activity you can think of. If his lips are moving, he's lying. Do NOT enter into ANY business relationship with this amoral, low-integrity individual.

Peter Moles

AUTHOR: HDK - (USA)

POSTED: Tuesday, January 31, 2017

 Peter started from the ground up busting his a*s. Grew up with him and know 1st hand that with success comes enemies from jealousy. Sure he made a few mistakes but we all have and if you haven't your going to. Bottom line is Peter aka Mole Man is a good guy and one of the most generous people out there. Nothing here to report and the individual who made this complaint should ask themselves a few questions about being honest with their assessment of Peter. I would do business with him although My business doesn't require that type of technology. I've got better things to do with my time but just wanted to clear the air here. HDK

 Someone who works for or with Peter Moles is not a very good poker player as they have showed their hand. First of all, the author of the rebuttal published on 11-01-16 referencing "poison" in the title is most likely a female, either Peter's sister, Polly, or an angry troll from Michigan. They have attempted to attack the wrong individual for telling the truth about Peter Moles and his company in December of 2015. I posted that report and my initials are NOT "DD". Anyone who knows Peter Moles knows he has a serious problem which he refuses to address or get help for. Rather than litigate(which he can't do because the statements made are true)or defend himself(as opposed to having his assorted minions fight his battles)he hides in his office snorting away. Peter has left a number of disappointed individuals in his wake. HIS agent agreement with Card Connect of King of Prussia, PA was terminated for cause due to his unethical business practices. He continues to surround himself with alcoholics, addicts and other bad actors as these are the only kind of people who will tolerate his bad behavior. If anyone has posted anything that is untrue, libelous or slanderous on here about Peter he would have already sued them. But he knows that any complaint he filed would be groundless so there you have it. I know the individual that Peter's female hack attempted to discredit in her humorous attack on 11-01-16 and that gentleman has cleared many thorough background checks to continue to thrive in the credit card processing business. The handful of people who continue to operate with Peter from his Oak Brook office routinely violate labor laws and have zero qualms regarding their dishonest, manipulative behavior.

Revenge is a poisen meant for someone else that you end up ingesting yourself

AUTHOR: One who actually knows the truth - (USA)

POSTED: Tuesday, November 01, 2016

It never ceases to amaze me the unsubstantiated garbage and rumors this site allows to be posted.

This extremely vicious attack on Mr Moles Integrity is totally unfounded or supported.

The person who wrote this, is an Independant contractor that was terminated for cause and was upset because that means he gets no more pay either.

He has been fired by more ISOs and Credit card processors than I can even imagine, in the last 20 plus years.

Once he was terminated for cause here, he simply wanted to get "Revenge" on Peter and the Companies he represents.

Actually "WE"  terminated our relationship with him.

I find it humorous that DD mentioned Peter's small stature, considering that the only thing bigger than this outside sales reps mouth is his body!

The minute I met him I knew he was a dishonest-jerk and I was very happy when he got terminated, becuase we don't want his kind working for us.

I have worked for this company since it started and we have gotten rid of every bad apple that we have found representing us .

The vile and untrue comments and vengeful rant, published by this person should be deleted with predudice, as its mostly nothing but twisted lies and deceitful comments .

Maybe the person who wrote the bogus report should work retail in the shoe business,since he has no soul.

revenge is a poisen meant for others you end up ingesting yourself

AUTHOR: One who actually knows the truth - (USA)

POSTED: Tuesday, November 01, 2016

This totally unfounded attack on Mr Moles integrity is nothing more than a TERMINATED, dishonest X outside sales reps attempt, to get back at the company and Peter for letting him go "with cause"

When a Independant contractor is let go with cause, they also give up all rights to any future salery or residual payments, as stated in their contracts.

As Small as Peters physique is to you,you are only small in the brain but HUGE in body.

Your initals are more than likely DD and it was pretty obvious from the day I met you, that you are a dishonest lying jerk and I knew it the second you opened your mouth the first time.

Your knowledge of the payment Industry is very limited and you try to make it up by using your large size and mouth to make up for it.

You have also worked for more people in the payment Industry than anyone I have ever met,more than likely due to terminations from all your past employers(for cause).

Your Angry attacks upon others are bound to come back at you 10 fold and I can't say, anyone deserves it more than you DOUG!

I have no idea what you expected to gain by all the laible and slanderous comments you have made,but you are pathetic.

Maybe you should get a job at a department store selling shoes,since you seem to wear so many.

#1 UPDATE Employee ..inside information

Completely Unfair and quite frankly Childish

AUTHOR: CopNick - (USA)

POSTED: Wednesday, January 20, 2016

 I would have to whole heartedly disagree with the report. I'm one of the younger reps and good friends with jack, and Pete acts like a father figure to me. First off Peter Moles preaches nothing but honesty and integrity to his reps when dealing with merchants. We disclose interchange rates and expose our profit. We disclose all fees. We verbally disclose the lease and never shy away from exactly what our program is. Second, Jack is not handed anything. I also recurve 3-4 appointments daily, but some areas are slower then others, if you can perform and close deals and walk the walk they will match you with a solid telemarketer. Also we earn our commission from cold calls. That's where you get your best costumers anyway. YOU earn them, don't expect the telemarketer to find you top notch deals. Last but not least, it is pretty apparent whoever wrote this was NOT a performer and was expecting a hand out and couldn't creat the revenue he wanted so not he is just bad mouthing a man who has in my mind just tried to promote an integral service to our customers. Credit card processing is not a perfect industry but I am PROUD to say I work with Peter
