Covenant Payment Technologies, formerly known as Access Payment Solutions, is nothing more than a scam, a sham, or better yet, a flim-flam. I signed on with Access Payment Solutions as an independent sales agent and met the owners Tyler and Stuart Long. Both seemed very down to earth and were quite convincing when they proclaimed their love for Christ. They promised monthly residuals on each merchant account I brought to them.
For about a year they delivered. Then the residual payments began to come in later and later each month until they stopped altogether. I tried calling Susan Martin, one of the Long's partners in crime, but she would not return any of my calls. After calling her and leaving messages repeatedly for about three weeks, I called Stuart Long directly on his cell phone. He also did not return my calls. When I tried the office a couple of days later, all phone lines had been disconnected.
The Longs had made off with all of the residuals and the entire portfolios of all of their sales agents. Not surprisingly, a local news station ran a story on Tyler Long exposing his fraudulent business practices, not only stealing money in credit card processing, but also scamming people into buying a Postal Exam preparation guide. There are also articles on this website about that business, Exam Services.
Since being scammed by the Long's, I have conducted my own research on them and found a long line of similar schemes attached to them. They tend to stop in a particular place scam the people of that area out of millions of dollars and move on. They have been run out of Maryland, Georgia, and other states. They have lost a lawsuit filed against them by the FCC and are in deep trouble with the U.S. Postal Service. I warn anybody and everybody who reads this report to avoid the Long's at all costs. BEWARE!!!
Be mindful that there is at least one other Long brother besides Tyler and Stuart. His name is John and he is just as crooked as the others.
