NATIONAL CONSUMER BENEFIT SERVIVES ripoff - DISHONEST CHAMPLIN New York

Back in July I got a call on my cell phone informing me that I will receive a visa credit card for $2000.00 credit limit. They asked me for my account # stating that I need to pay $299.00 to be enrolled and they will send the package in 2 weeks. They took the money from my account on July 16, 2003 and never send any package for me.

I got their telephone no. from off the pre authorized check they send to my bank 4 week after. I called them the first time and the answer machine came on and to my amusement it was in some foreign language"french" I supposed. Finally I got through to a Michael. He told me that they will send out the package in 7 to 10 business days. Well on August 12 I got the package and found out that it was a pile of lies.

They send me a cataloge and couponds in the amount of $300.00. There was no visa card. I immediately returned the package that same day via Priority Mail ( signature confirmation). The postal sevice attempted to deliver around the 14th of August but no one was there to sing. I called them and inform them that the package is at the post office and they need to go and get it. I confirm with the postal service and they signed for the package on August 22, 2003.

Ever since then I tried to contact the office and got the run arround. I was told that they cannot locate my "FILE". I spoke to Michael and he gave me antother # 514-937-2307 and I spole to Paula. She was still not able to help me. They were to call me back and they never did. It is now October 13, 2003 and no one has called me. I wrote them a letter sending them a copy of the signature confirmation receipt and a copy of the check they use to take funds from my account. I have contacted my bank to see if they can help me to recover the money but thus far I don't now what will happen.

AMERICAN BUSINESS DIRECTO IS THE PAYEE OF THE CHECK!
