National Healthcare Solutions They lied to me about a Federal Tax Refund and then debited my acct. 329.90 total Tampa Florida 4 *EDitor's Suggestions on how to get your money back into your bank account!

National Healthcare Solutions is the most disshonest company I have ever come across. The called me on Jan. 9, 2008 saying that the Federal Govenment (I.R.S.) was giveng me extra tax refund money totalling something like $3,000.00. They (N.H.S.) said that they were going to deposit this money into my acct. over a six month period with installments of $500.00 each month on the 15th of each month. Being naive and also in a bit of financial turmoil with a barely eight month old daughter I thought that sounded pretty good. Boy was I ever wrong. If it sounds to good to be true it probably is! This definitely was. These "scammers" didn't do anything for me at all except put me in further financial turmoil.

On Jan. 14, 2008 NHS debited $29.95 from my acct. I honestly didn't think alot about it at that point. It wasn't until the 28th of Jan. 2008 when the took and additional $299.95 from my acct. that the red flags came up and my blood began to boil. I called them at the number provided on my bank statement and read them the riot act about how the had misled me by conviniently leaving out the parts of the recorded agreement that stated that they were going to debit this money. I know that I would not have agreed to let them take any money from me because I don't have it to spare. I called and threatened to contact the Attourney General of the state of Florida where there corp. office supposably is if they did not refund my money. That was an hour ago or so. They told me they would have to put in a refund request with there corp. office and that I would have to call back after 48 hours to find out the status of my refund. Which I fully intend to do.

Bottom line is these f*#@'s need to be stopped. One way or the other. They are fraudulantly taking poor innocent peoples money and that is in no way O.K. I fully intent to follow up with the Florida Attourney General as well. This needs to stop and everyone including myself should be entitled to a full refund of what the took from us in the least.

EDitor's Suggestions on how to get your money back!

HERE IS WHAT RIP-OFF REPORT SUGGESTS YOU DO:

Go to your bank within 60 days of the charge, or as soon as you know about the charge, don't delay, and tell them that there has been fraudulent activity within your account. Explain that you wish to file a dispute, and demand that they assist you in accordance with Federal Regulation E.

According to the majority of victims interviewed by Rip-off Report, those who immediately called their banks to dispute the charges did not get very far. Many victims got the following responses from their banks: we could not do anything for you or you waited too long; it has been more than 60 days.

If the bank is says that you have waited too long, explain to them how you called their 800 number as soon as the charges were found, and were told by the bank that nothing could be done. Remind the bank that they failed to assist you properly at the 800 #, and instead, provided you with an inadequate explanation of your right to dispute. Tell the bank that it's their fault time has expired, and since they gave you the wrong info to begin with, they will just have to deal with it, take the loss and reverse the charges.

Tell them the truth; this was unauthorized and your account was NOT to be charged! Keep emphasizing how you never authorized anything! Direct them to the hundreds of victims reports that were filed on Rip-off Report.com. And if you're at the bank, walk them over to their computer and make them go to this site! If you are on the phone with them, tell them you will wait while they access this site! Either way, be persistent!

DO NOT TAKE NO FOR AN ANSWER!

Let them know nicely, that you were advised to Report them (the Bank) and this situation to the Banking Commission in your state. Since each state has a different name for the agency/controller over banks, find that name before you call or get to the bank so you can throw it in their face. The more knowledgeable you appear to be, the further you will get.

And just continue to demand the Federal Regulation E form! The bank CAN, MUST and WILL reverse the charge! But, you must be persistent; ask to speak to the supervisor or the area manager for all the branches in the state.

Let the bank personnel know you are meeting with the media later in the day, that you would much rather they do the right thing (as most other banks have) by looking at the complaints and immediately reversing the charge(s) to your account; no matter how long ago it was. Be sure to call the Media if necessary so you are telling the truth.

If you have to, be loud (but nice) in front of other customers. If you are just calling by phone, the above tactics should still work. The bank can easily fax or mail to you the Federal Regulation E dispute form.

CHARGES TO YOUR CREDIT CARD

If the charge was to your credit card (not debit card, check card, or checking account), contact the credit card company as soon as possible to request a dispute form. Consumers usually have a little longer to dispute fraudulent credit card charges (up to 6 months), but it is better to act right away. In this type of situation, credit card disputes are usually successful since fraudulent companies often won't contest the disputed charge. In rare cases, credit card companies will review disputes, but refuse to reverse the charges. If this occurs, complain to a manager and let them know you will be filing a report here.

Remember Don't let them get away with it! Make sure they make the Rip-off Report .. The more Reports filed on a Company or individual, the more likely it is that the authorities, media and attorneys will want to take action.
