I was interested in purchasing a business I saw on the Sunbelt website. When I went in I was told I had to give up all of my personal information before they could release any information. No one could explain to me why I had to do that. I looked up on the web and called the headquarters about it. I spoke with the man that was supposed to be in charge. When I asked some tough questions all I got was double talk.
I decided to do some investigating on Sunbelt and here is what I found out. The website touts that this companys values include integrity and following the golden rule. When you look up the history of the president Ed Pendarvis, in Charleston (where the company is located) he has been sued personnally 9 times for failing to pay his debt. His company has been sued in Charleston alone over 20 times (charlestoncounty).in addition, his company has been linked with Mitan and is being sued in that regards
Also, since this is a franchise, I checked on a few websites. It says they have 365 offices. On thier own website it list under 300.
This information took me only 40 minutes to find. One would wonder if you really spent some time what you would find. I for one will not give up my social security number to a company that can't even pay its own bills.
