I started a small carpet cleaning business from home, My company was generally operated off cash. One day a man from a company by the name of Transnational called me and offered me a credit card machine to benefit my customers. His name was Shawn Pebbles, he stated that it would only cost me 39.95 once a month to obtain this equipment. He stated that my customers would be able to process checks and use the machine to scan debit and credit cards. I really wasn't interested in the service, but Mr. Pebbles assured me that this would be the best company for this type of service. He offered me two months free to start the service. Which at this time was at the end of March. He faxed over an application for me to fill out and I submiited it with a blank copy of my personal check and faxed it back over to him. He then called me back later that day and stated he could not use my personal account for this service, he stated that I would have to have a business account to get this service, so I went to the bank and opened a business acct on 3-31. I then faxed him as he requested the voided check for my business acct. He then sent the equipment via a delivery service within a few days. I received a letter from my bank shortly after stating my acct was overdrawn. I reviewed the info and to my surprise a debited from Northen Leasing had hit my acct. Now keep in mind since this was a brand new acct I had only authorized one company to draft an amount from my acct, so I immediately contacted Shawn Pebbles to find out why was money being drafted so soon, since the original agreement was that I get two FREE months to start this service, he assured me he would have that amount credited back to my account, however that was a LIE. Another amount drafted 12 days later for a different amount from the same company. I called him again, he started dodging the phone calls. This was starting my acct to go into the negative with overdraft fees because there was not enough money there to cover these transactions, simply nothing should have been coming out. Several payments started coming out in various amounts and I could not get this Shawn Pebbles guy to credit anything back as he stated it would be. Then not only that my personal acct started being debited by a company associated with Transnational and Northern Leasing, that I did not authorize, because from the very BEGINNING he advised he that he could not use my personal acct that was the only reason I opened the business acct. I then tried reaching out to someone beyond him, as far as another representative of this Leasing Company, Once, I finally got a representative, I told them they had breached my contrat and since they were not refunding the money I want to cancel. Keep in mind this is all within the first 30 days and the machine had not been used one time. The representative stated we could not cancel because it was in a contract for 2 years and that I would have to pay over $2000.00 to get out of the contract or find someone to lease the machine. I was so Frustrated. Continuosly money was being drafted from both my business and personal account without my authorization. I am not surprised to see there are so many other people posting reports on this comany, They do not value their customer, and they do what's best for the customer. They simply just want to say you are in a contract and the money must be paid. I am willing to fight this all the way. I need a lawyer or someone to help me get rid of this NIGHTMARE.
