I met with a sales rep from Eliot Management Group regarding a merchant account through his company. We visited for a very lengthy time as I expressed my displeasure with my current provider. He assured me his company was top notch. I explained to him my committment length with my current provider and that I would be willing to switch after I full filled my agreement with that company. He had me sign a credit app that apparantly was actually in reality a binding contract to do business with them. I have discovered that today as I received a merchant statement debiting my account for the month of January.
Now mind you I don't even have a way to process credit cards through their company. When I called the corporate headquarters to get assistance of course I was then told I signed the contract so basically I was stuck. A three year contract no less. I was misled, misinformed, and above all lied to. I would not even agree to meet with a sales rep from this company and if they called me I would hang up on them. I won't be surprised when they are run out of town from running a dishonest business. I am waiting for my sales rep to call me back as I am sure he will not knowing I am on to him. If the call does not come I will obliterate the internet with his name and business practices. Stay away from them unless you want to be roped in and hog tied.
