Ameritrust called me on the phone and promised me what sounded at the time like a good opertunity for me to get my credit established and rebuild a good credit rating. They offered me a 2000 dollar credit account visa card. Asked me for all my information to establish my account and told me that it would cost me a one time activation charge of 200 dollars. I in turn get 4 50 dollar vouchers good for purchases or credit tward my balance. After all information was exchanged they gave me a confirmation number. I had told them that my budget was not able to support all 200 dollars in one payment so we set up 2 payments of 100 dollars and secured the agreement.
The next day I made 7 attempts to contact customer service and left 7 messages.By the next following day I made several more attempts to contact Ameritrust with no success. I got a little worried so I decided to see what I could find on the web. Thats when I found out the truth about Ameritrust. The first listing was this site! On one of my phone calls with Ameritrust's answering system I left a message telling them I am cancelling my application with them and wanted nothing to do with them.
After reading all the reports about Ameritrust, I went straight to my bank and put a stop payment against this company. Since then, they have accessed my account twice and tried to deduct there 100 dollar payments. I am now closeing my account so they will not have access to it anymore. I am glad I found out about this company before it was too late. I know others have not been so lucky. If this site saves anyone else from the grip of these scam artists, I will be truly greatful. I am now considering legal action against these people, who pray on non-suspecting people who only want a better life for there family.
