My daughter and Army husband have two children and are living on WIC and below the poverty level due to military pay for Specialists 1. The were lured into a contract with the aforementioned companies with a promise of a vacation.
They ended up with $2200.00 worth of stainless steel cookware that could be purchased anywhere in the US for $400 to $500. They were also pressured into opening a revolving account with a credit entity that charges 18% APR and then charges $5.00 to $30.00 "Penalty" for paying via on line banking or via telephone debit.
They wanted to return the cookware and the company refused to take it because they had already been paid by the lending agent.
These kids are struggling every month just to pay for their basic needs and these unscrupulous companies prey on them. I have listened to their phone
conversations with the various entities and these businesses have no sense of fair play at all.
I think the company that sold the merchandise, Simplicity Brides of Hoynton Beach, FL should take the merchandise back and recover their monies from the lending agent that they pressured these kids into signing with. Their credit rating does not exist because they have never had credit and these
people have a $2200.00 indebtedness against them and they don't have the means to pay it and can't return the merchandise.
