I have a small business just getting started and researched about 10 different CC Processing companies. Most of them seemed similar. Eliot Management Group called me and had a Rep.in the area so I had a meeting with her. I stressed that I only need to process $500 to $1500 a month and would like to try their system for a couple of months to see how it goes.
No problem (Rep. Stated) — simple — I thought.
I called to inquire about the extra $5.00 processing fee, (even though I hadn't even registered on line yet to get started).
After a couple of minutes of explanation, I decided to cancel this month to month contract. Then I was told I had signed a 3 year contract and was reprimanded for not reading the fine lines in the contract. The lady told me, "A contract is a contract and we have it to protect ourselves and yourself". I agree with her that it was definitely to protect themselves.
I've called the agency several times and no one has returned my calls.
I did get some good advice from one of their Reps that even seemed a bit sympathetic. They said don't talk to your Rep but go to their boss.
I'll keep trying and if I get a favorable response I will post it as mistakes do happen.
