I lost my $5000 downpayment on EBPRO, but hopefully you won't. He removed my EBPRO status when after some years had passed I hadn't sold any homes. Of course, that didn't also give him the right to take away my 2000 member downline, which was acquired by following his "system." And it ignores the fact that my failure to sell them had everything to do with his failure and nothing to do with mine.
The system worked on my part. The problem was that he hadn't built one single home that produced a satisfied customer. After eight years or more at this he now has four homes built with litigation pending on two that I know of, but is still unable to produce a testimony from a satisfied buyer. He is having "VIP Open Houses" for those who give no negative indication or pay him money. There are two houses he has in progress at this time. They stay "in progress" for a very long time. I think he's finished his third and the current VIP Open House is for his fourth sucker. I have asked him repeatedly for a testimony from his third or fourth buyer. I have already heard from the number one and two buyers, both suing him.
It's too bad. He has a great concept. Apparently he has a personal problem and can't manage to spend your money where it is supposed to be spent. He cuts off your communication if you have anything negative to say. He has over 100,000 former members, many very angry, but his "forum" only has a few posts - from those who just got in and are letting their high hopes of the dream get in the way of their due diligence. Everything else gets deleted by him, the moderator. Same thing for his conference calls. He cuts you out if you are negative. He also does not reply to your email if it seems to him a lost cause. For instance, I sent the following email to him twice, each with no reply...
Dario,
I will repeat what I wrote you before when I got no reply.
I'm still waiting for you to show me one satisfied customer before promoting your deal because there is a lot more to promoting a builder than seeing they can
produce three or four houses after seven or eight years, especially having heard from two of your four customers that they are suing you.
Your response to my telling you that I am waiting to hear from a satisfied customer has been - why should I wait until you don't need me any more?
Sorry, I can't buy that. Even giving you the benefit of the doubt by presuming naively that literally everything those who filed suits against you is false, I'm still not going to stick my neck out for a person who
won't do the right thing by refunding EBPRO downpayments to those whose EBPRO status has been removed by you and in my case a 2000 member downline also taken away. Any basis for ethics in you is clearly missing based on my own personal experience. So here I wait for that first satisfied customer you can boast of and I can talk to or at least get a recent recording or written statement from. The fact that someone may be living in one of your
homes does not mean they are satisfied. No VIP tour can take the place of a conversation with an actual satisfied buyer who has seen you do your job
from start to finish and has a completed property to live in and enjoy as you have promised. Just a phone call from your happy customer living in their wonderful home is all I need, not even that. Maybe one of those V3 or V4 buyers? I'll be waiting.
Of course, optionally, you could refund the $5000 I paid you for my EBPRO downpayment upfront, rather than require that I find you another sucker to get the refund. Now that would be a sign that you had a conscience.
Keep me on your list, but there is no way in hell I am going to help you promote this without one single known satisfied buyer. You can get their recorded message if you are concerned about their privacy and not just
throwing up smoke and mirrors. Let me hear them talk about how you didn't rip them off. I know you'd be blaring a recorded message like that all over
the web if you had one like you are back to doing with the clips you have of the Hudsons and Perkos.
An actual recent clip from a satisfied customer with a completed home they are living in and a reinstatement of my EBPRO status would get me back in action with CSH and help you redeem your reputation. I would then start
promoting CSH and earn the rest of my EBPRO. We could go from there. Until then, and for similar reasons, there is not one single builder that uses network marketing that I will endorse.
But I know that you are more interested in taking my $5000 and that of any other EBPRO downpayees than you are in redeeming your reputation. Apparently you don't care that history will mark you down as one of its lowest scum.
Sincerely
