Consumer Complaints

This Chesapeake, Va., company sells TVs and computers for thousands more than their actual value. On top of that, they also sell jewelry. Their scheme is very similar to Blue Hippo, profiled in a ConsumerAffairs.com investigative series.

Virginia consumer protection officials have received "several hundred complaints" about them and the Better Business Bureau has even more, state officials told us. And what do the company's customers say?

Stephanie of Covingtion GA (10/20/08)
I have been dealing with financing alternatives since 2003. I started by giving my checking account information, followed by weekly withdraws, amounting to 70.00. My circumstances changed and my checking account was closed.

About two years went by ad I saw a commerical about being able to by a computer with no money down, contacted company, to by a computer. I learned they still had my 70.00 in an account in my name. I reactivated the account, once again gave my new account information to start withdraws, so I could purchase a computer, to make along story short. 2000.00 was taken out of my account and I still do not have a computer.

When I call the number I always called to follow up on the progress of my purchase, to my dismay no answer, and as time went by phone was disconneted. I want my money back. Please help me. I have bank statments, and paper work regarding contract and promises. I composed a file. I dont have a representives name accept whats on paper work. Desparate for help
