Furniture USA FRAUD and DECEIT. Failure to reposnd and unauthorized charges

Unfortunately, I placed my order with FurnitureUSA.com on 7/23/04. The web-site looked legit and I did speak with a sales rep. Named Marsha Fulp. Guess others have spoke to her as well. She seemd pretty nice.

I was told that they would need a 25% deposit on some Broyhill Tables that I ordered. Total cost would be $516.00. So, I authorized the charge for $129.00 on 7/23/04. I was told that I would get some paperwork in the mail and that I would have to sign something and return it.

The paperwork showed up on 8/2/04. It included a receipt showing that the entire $516.00 had been charged. The paperwork also had a credit card authorization form, an order confirmation form, a printout of the tables from the Broyhill caatalog and the original quote.

I wrote to customer service asking if I needed to sign both the order confirmation form and the CC authorization form as both needed signatures. But, since the CC authorization form had my CC info blatantly displayed, I did not want to fax this back. This first contact to customer service was on 8/2/04. I then tried to write to Marsha Fulp, with whom I coresponded via email and phone prior to this with no problem. Her email came back to me as undeliverable. Here is the exact output:

I am trying to reach you about my order. Seems like FurnitureUSA is having some
problems? I see many complaints against the company and customer service is
unreachable? What is going on?

Mike

To date, I have written emails, left voice mails and faxed the company. NOTHING!

I started getting suspicious when my email was returned. Too bad I came across this site AFTER I ordered stuff from them. I issued a dispute with my VISA holder and they will let me know status within 10 business days. They told me to gather all the information I have and fax it to them. I will do so gladly.

Do not order from them!!! I will be contact the BBB today as well.
