Was contacted by them in Sept., $2000 loc $200 up front 4x $50 vouchers, told them I wanted to see the terms in writing. Man on the phone assures me I'll recieve the papers in the mail before my 1st payment and have the option at that time to cancel if I don't agree and that they wouldn't be able to process it w/o completed paperwork. So I accepted. One mo. later no paperwork so I put a stop payment on my acct. I figure it's dealt w/, no paperwork, no credit, no payment.
Tues, Mar 17 I recieve a "third notice" from Georgia Check Recovery stating among other things that I must contact them by Mar 19th or I could be reported to national database used by over 300,000 businesses nationwide and turned over to the proper authorities for prosicution. I called GCR and spoke to Ms Bailley who told me that, my 1st notice was my bank statement, the 2nd was from ameritrust [which I never recieved(of course)], this the third, and that I owed them $359 Due Friday Mar 21st. I explained what happened she asked me to file a complaint, which I did. This morning she called and told me that Ameritrust had a recording of me agreeing to the withdrawls fom my acct and that tomorrow they would hand it over to their attorney for collections. I told her that I would be taking them and Ameritrust to court she told me to give them my attorney's info when I got one.
So I called the Wa Attorney General who informed me that they had some sort of judgement against Ameritrust, but that I needed to call consumer protection on Mon Mar 24th. I then Called GCR and spoke again w/ ms Bailley about my findings teliing her that if GCR is a reputable co. they may want to sever ties w/ ameritrade as there are hundreds of complaints etc. etc. This was no surprise to her (I'm obviously not the 1st to bring this to her attention), she became concerned and conected me w/ Ms fuller's (apperently the owner or CEO of GCR) voicemail to inform her of my findings.
I will take them to court, I will sue them for every single $ I'm legally entitled to. A class action would be better. I will do my best to find an attorney who will be interested in taking this up. I see no reason why any court in America would side w/ them. How could I owe $ for a product/service I never recieved. They never sent me anything! Not even when I stopped payment.

Spoke w/ Ms. Bailey from Georgia Check Recovery (GCR) today. Told her that I had spoke w/ FL St Attorney General (FSAG) and WA ST Attorney General (WSAG) & that FSAG was definately pursuing this matter and that GCR is aware of the fraudulant nature of this co. As I started to tell her that I want my case closed and want a letter stating it w/ prejudice (cannot and will not be pursued in the future) she told me that it had been closed. She then connected me w/ her Mgr. Ms. Fuller's voice mail and asked me to give all the information to her.
I didn't recieve the fax today, however I will continue to update FSAG, WSAG, and this website. If I don't recieve the fax tomorrow; I'll call again on Friday! Don't take no for an answer! Be Unrelenting! Be, to them, like a telemarketer is to you. Squeeky wheel gets the grease. Make their ears sore! whatever it takes! Good Luck!

Got a call back from Fl St Attorney General yesterday. They are pursuing this! filed a complaint Mon. they called back Tues.! Spoke to Megan Randell, Investigative Assistant. Bill Setheringill is Lead Investigater.
Do file a complaint w/ your own State Attorney General, Do file a complaint w/ Fl St Attorney General and do be detailed and specific. The more info the better.
Spoke w/ an attorney last night who advised me to call Georgia Check Recovery (GCR) back today demanding a dismissal of my collections, in writing, by fax, today, with prejudice (will not and cannot pursue in the future). Recorded Agreement not binding if they misled you, did not stick to their agreement, told you one thing did another, etc. etc. GCR is aware of the illegal and unethical practices of Ameritrust Financial (AF) and is most certainly bound by laws of ethics. Meaning that they are responsible to verify validity of debt in addition to avoiding fraudulant behavior themselves. Let them know that you will report them to their states Attorney General if they do not cooperate.
In WA state I can potentially sue AF for upwards of $10,000 for this "Fraud" (and it is fraud) I may still look into Class action, however if we all do what I am doing on our own behalf, the effect is potentially even more overwelming (the difference between being attacked by a Grizzly Bear vs. being attacked by 300 Racoons). So contact your County Bar Association to see if you have free neighborhood legal clinics, speek w/ attorneys and do whatever it takes to shut these Preditory Theives down
