Securus Payments Excel Corporation Deceptive Selling, Exorbitant Leases, Fraud Portland, Pittsburgh Nationwide

This company solicits merchants for credit card processing.  Their sales agents pitch a program that they claim will drastically reduce monthly processing fees.  The program is contingent on an equipment agreement.  The equipment agreement is actually a 48 month lease,  which in most states is non cancellable.

The rip off is that the quoted savings is unrealistic.  The company makes fraudulent claims that they can save merchants hundreds of dollars per month on processing, but in reality, the processing fees from Securus are higher than what the merchant was paying before.

Unfortunately, once the business owner discovers that the new program is a rip off, they are locked in a contract and a lease agreement that they can't terminate.
