Contacted Nov 1 by Pat Dolan of Financial Solutions advising there was an opening in British Columbia for an Account Manager offering low transaction rate Credit Card programs to merchants. Asserted that the rates were far lower than market and there were no merchant contracts, no conversion fees or hidden charges and they were eligible for advance cash payments based on their volume. He also said the cost to me would be $495 but WOULD NOT BE DEDUCTED until there was a revenue stream and that I should set it aside to pay when revenue was flowing in! I am strapped financially and was terribly stressed out and stupid enough to jump at the opportunity and gave them my credit card information. I received a phone call the same day (which they recorded) and while she did say that I was being charged but Pat Dolan said to set it aside. I then did called their Customer Service number and they said they had no knowledge of the company and that my Agent ID was not in a format they recognized. I sent emails to Dolan and they were returned undeliverable.
I made urgent phone calls including to Pat Dolan who said he would straighten everything else (no response was received) and to the Operations Manager named Hugh Harris (I think that was his last name) who also said they were sending some information to me that would explain it. I have not received any information via email/mail identifying the program, contract, agreement, or any information which can be supportive legally of any commitment. They have one phone call made under stressful conditions and obscured by the preceding false and misleading information. I have just hung up from HUGH the Operations Manager who said in effect - tough luck, we have your money and you can complain to whomever you want. I demanded that they credit me my $495 (Cdn) and they have laughed in my face.
I am a senior citizen who is striving to make ends meet and was pressured into a false, misleading and fraudulent agreement. Help!

Don't make me laugh! This is ANOTHER Arizona scam. ONe company calls you and sells you then another calls you and claims they can get your money back. Oh! They do get you a TEMPORARY CREDIT and that is when you have to pay them 20%-40% of what the original charge was...

But there is a BIG BUT... When they temporary credit is rescinded and you loose the chargeback effort against the original company, you are now out the additional money! Go here:
http://starpas.azcc.gov/scripts/cgiip.exe/WService=wsbroker1/names-detail.p?name-id=L16575329&type=L.L.C.
and you will see that this company is owned by Jay and Karen Rosen located in Scottsdale Arizona.

Lastly, what they are doing is COMPLETELY ILLEGAL and it doesn't take anyone paying someone to do what they do. Call your credit card company and tell them you have a fraudulent charge on your credit card. They will send you a form and you will have to sign it and send it back! How hard is that?

I promise you if you use an outside company to do what I just described, you WILL see the BUT in my story but it will be looking back at you with two T's! Steer clear of Arizona!

Franklin Financial Solutions Continues Fraudulent Actions

AUTHOR: Paul Moore - (Canada)

Note: I was apparently mistaken in reporting their operations manager as Hugh Harris. Apparently he is Hugh REID! My apologies to any Hugh Harris not associated with Franklin Financial Solutions.

This "Company" appears determined to suck more money out of its victims!
I received absolutely NO written communication from them including no response to my several emails. It appears they do not want any documentation that can be used against them.

I did receive their their introductory package which shocked me in terms of the previously undisclosed financial costs if one were to take part. They even had the audacity to advise me to have a large line of credit to take advantage of the limitless marketing opportunities! I returned the entire package back to their Operations Manager Hugh Reid with a letter stating that I would have nothing to do with their company as we agreed to on Nov 8. By the way, they make communications by email and writing virtually impossible. I had to send it to a PO Box in Wyoming while they do all of their business in Arizona. And there is never any response.

I received a phone call on Nov 30 from an agent named Robert (Employee Number 80109) who was happy to tell me that he was immediately processing a refund back to my account and it should appear back in my credit card account in about 5 days. In the meantime, the "executive have some offers for me including "1000 free leads" --- rather than $100 a lead the "Marketing Director" Michael Sullivan quoted after their original  promise of providing me with many, ongoing free leads. I told Robert I appreciated it but would not talk to ANYONE at Franklin until I saw the money in my account. I also told him I sent the introductory package back to their Operations Manager Hugh Reid.

I have since received 2 calls from TANYA asking how I was enjoying the web site and I told her the first time that  I had cancelled any participation in their program with on Nov 8 and was awaiting a refund. She phoned a second time a week later to attempt to engage me in the web site. I let her talk to my voice mail. In addition I received 2 phone messages from their Agent  - Sherry on Dec 7 saying she was making sure I got my credit and that management had some information on my "posting and web site".  And today Dec 15, I get a call from some Consultant who was hired to provide me with sales advice by Franklin Financial! I also advised him that I was waiting for my refund and would not talk to anyone associated with FFS. He was really concerned that I stamp his ticket so that he could say that he phoned.

#1 UPDATE EX-employee responds

EX EMPLOYEE Agrees with you: THIS IS A SCAM!

You are correct sir. This company and as far as I can tell, all of it's DBA's: Advisor's Choice Network, ChoiceAdz.com, mychoicebusinessservices.com, & mychoicebusiness.com, are all a SCAM. I have been working for the company for several days getting a gut feeling that this "seo marketing" and "own your own business" properties weren't just ripping off people for thousands of dollars. Our whole team were getting a horrible feeling that their target market were elderly men and women who wanted to invest their money in something to get ahead in life.  

When we were starting to get the wrong idea about the company, at ChoiceAdz.com, Butch Chelliah (@butchchelliah), heading up the telemarketing s****.>
