This company is a scam! The office is located on 24th St. and Thomas however they tell callers that they are calling from Las Vegas, NV. They use a Vonage phone system with 702 area codes to appear to callers that they are calling from Vegas. They claim to provide business owners the opportunity to receive grant monies that are being awarded by public and private foundations.
Here's the truth, they make outbound calls to unsuspecting business owners and claim to be able to secure a minimum of 100K in grant money for them. If they can't secure the 100K in grant money for the business owner within a 12 month period they will give them another year of their service for free and forego the balance of the retainer while they continue to work towards the 100K.
The entire cost of this service is $7500 and is disguiesed as a retainer fee. They tell the business owners they will take half of the retainer fee ($3750) upfront and the balance of the retainer ($3750) once they have secure them the company minimum of 100K. Where GBF really makes its money is from the so called "retainer" they secure from hopeful business owners.
They will even lower the upfront cost of the retainer to give off the impression that it's really not the money that they are concerned with. The truth is, this is just another ploy to extract whatever they can get out of the business owner. Beware of Robert Ponce, Christopher Cole and Marco Esparaza. It's only a matter of time before the Fed's kick in the door.

Writer confirms my suspicion, and is describing the situation perfectly. Global has contacted my business and is trying to get me to sign on under a couple different names than listed. I doubt that changes things. It makes NO sense to me to have to pay to receive free money. It has always been my understanding that is a sign of a scam. The writer did a great job making a thorough report. The BBB still leaves suspicion open and can't be very trusted regardless (BBB).
Thanks for the report,
James

This guy doesn't answer to anything, he doesn't even answer his email, his scummy customer service director answers for him.

Global Business Funding Report Rebuttal
AUTHOR: Mickey Gines - (U.S.A.)
SUBMITTED: Tuesday, November 04, 2008
My name is Mickey Gines and I am the President and founder of Global Business Services, Inc. I want to take this opportunity to refute the claims against my company referenced in the above report. The claims against my company are completely false, made by a disgruntled ex-employee who only wants to hurt the company. Here is a link to another identical post where he clearly identifies himself as an ex-employee (http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AiVDaf6TaTcEWsu9imISU3ojzKIX;_ylv=3?qid=20081014150932AAUmnoW).
I ask anyone interested in my company to due your due diligence; look at the BBB and at all the other information on the web. We pride ourselves on our commitment to the client and our success at helping our customers. Don't let the rants of a clearly unhappy ex-employee color your judgment, look at all the information available and we are confident that you will want to do business with us.
Thank You, Sincerely,
Mickey Gines, President
Global Business Funding, Inc.
