I was looking for a loan for bad credit due to my divorce. I had did a search on bad credit loans and they had popped up. I had applied and the next day Feb. 26th I received a call from John Belstaff Ext. 509 and he faxed over all the loan documents, he stated that I needed to make the first 2 payments up front but that meant that I wouldn't have to make a payment until June in return. I had agreed the total I would have to pay was 737.00
I had did a seach on Aylmer Financial Group and at that time I didn't see anything about Aylmer financial Group no where, so i was comfortable going through with the loan. So finally on 3/03 I send the money to the first 2 initial payments that I needed to get this 10,000 loan I called John Belstaff he instructs me that I need to send the money through money gram that way the next morning I will get the 10,000 wired into my account, he tells me he will help me fill out the money gram receipt in which he does and tells me my lender will be Michael D Handler in Ajax, Ontario in Canada... I sent the money and gave him the reference number he states again that the money will be in my account by noon my time and if I had any questions to call him.
The next day I see that the funds still haven't been deposited into my account then I call John he doesn't answer so I call back and connect to the customer service center and ask for the accounting department. I get a rep who then states that John misrepresented the company and the lender wanted another 2 payments from me and that my contract was null and void.in return when I send this last payment they will up my loan to 12,000 I stated I was unable to come up with that kind of money and he said I can hold your loan until you do. He then asked if I could borrow the money and let that person know I would have it within 3 hours. I then replied that I want my money back now then, the purpose for me getting the loan was to help me pay bills that I was behind on if I had 1,400 I wouldn't be so desperate it was hard enough. I sent my daughters tuition money and now I just want my money back. He then stated that I would receive a check within 7 to 10 days I stated I should have it wired back to me since I wired it to him he stated they don't do that, I said fine just give me my money back.
The next day I continued to try to get ahold of John which he wouldn't pick up so then I called customer service and said a different name and they picked up and I told them who I was and I wanted a signed note that they were issuing my refund they stated they don't do that I would just have to take their word for it, I said I want it noted that I asked for my refund the day prior and I want to make sure someone would make sure my refund was processed he said it was noted yesterday and I should get my refund within 7 to 10 days.
I finally did another search on Alymer Financial Group and started to find complaints on people being scammed for their money it was then I realized that I was too now. Til this day 3/ I have yet to receive my refund nor will they even pick up the phone at any extension now. If anyone knows how to legally take action please count me in or any other steps that need to be taken.
