I just wrote a complaint on behalf of myself being ripped off by Jim Ellis and his company. I would now like to share a story with you on what he did to our Nanny! (I'll call her "Jane", not real name)
Jane also signed an agreement in October for 30 machines to be placed and paid the standard $750 up fron via wire transfer. She spent her savings BUYING the machines from Vendstar in hopes to make some extra income to pay her mortgage when her older daughter moves out in June 06.
She trusted and relied on Vending Dreams to come through, as did we all. She got the same run around as us, but lo and behold, a locator actually showed up in Phoenix and "found" 30 locations! SOunds like a great story with a happy ending... WELL read on!
The locator presented "Jane" with 30 peices of paper with business cards attached and DEMANDED payment. She did not give Jane the time to check out and tour the placements. She said everything is ok and if Jane had any probelms, the locator would come back and help... So Jane paid her the 50% balance in CASH!
Well, you all know where I am going with this. When Jane tried to place her machines, over half of the people said "no" and the other 50% of the locations were horrible... SOOOO, Jane has tried contacting the locator and she gets ignored. She called Vending Dreams and spoke to ASHLEY FERGUSON and she said "sorry-if you paid her there is nothing we can do to help you". Real nice huh!
Now, my poor nanny is stuck with machines again, she doesn't speak english that well and may now have to rent her house and move into a cheaper apartment with her youngest daughter! She just can't beleive stuff like this can happen in United States "the land of opportunity". She see's stuff like this all the time in Mexico, but thought US citizens were better than that! Jim Elis gives us American business people a BAD NAME!
Vending Dreams and Jim Ellis has ruined her life and her financial plans. I don't know how people like Jim, Susan, Steven and Ashley can sleep at night doing this to people. I suppose they are living the high life up in Oblong, IL using other peoples hard earned money.
I am so disgusted and saddened by what they have done to "Jane", that I have made it a point to get restitution and persue legal actions for her, myself and others. I will do what it takes!
I just finished sending my complaints to the FTC, Consumer Affairs and the Attorney general. I urge all of you to take the time to do this and bring Jim and the other crooks DOWN!!!
As this website states, Don't Let them get away with it... Fight for yourself, you deserve it! No One deserves to be walked on or stolen from.
