The first contract I received from Royal Lending Group was from a person, whose name is Sylvia Logan at 866-569-0684 ext 2483. Prior to me getting this contract I send in $1,179.00 USD, by Western Union to a currier by the name of Mellisa Dean in Richmond Hill, Ontario CA, for insurance against the loan, which had a policy term of 72 months with a monthly payment of $216.66 USD at a fixed interest rate of 6%. This contract was received from Royal Lending Group on March 18, 2008. Upon receiving this valid contract, I filled in my banking information and faxed it back to Royal Lending Group at 866-205-7012. The last time I talked to her was on March 19, 2008 at which time Sylvia stated that the money would be wired into my account the next day, March 20th, 2008. That never happened, and I have not heard a word from her.
After the Easter Holiday, on Tuesday March 25 I contacted another person form Royal Lending Group by the name of Simona Athill at 866-569-0684 ext 6234. Simona told me that Royal Lending Bank tried 3 times to wire the money but with no success and the money is now in escrow and will cost me $200.00 to have the $15,000 released from escrow. Simona also told me it would cost another $650.00. At this time I was not 100% that Royal Lending Group was a reputable company but more of a fraudulent company. Simona assured me that Royal Lending Group was a reputable company. Simona sent me a Settlement Letter on March 26, 2008, showing a total down money in the amount of $1,975 USD, loan amount $15,000 USD, Payback $16,500 USD monthly payments $229.16 USD interest rate 10% for 6 years. I was able to obtain the additional $850.00 USD and Western Unioned it to another currier by the name of Luisa Zeni in Richmond Hill, Ontario CA. Upon sending this money I called Simona and Simona said she started the wire transfer at 4:15 PM and it would take anywhere from 2 - 4 hours to complete and that she would stay at the office until it is completed. I checked my account on-line after midnight on March 27, 2008 and the money was not posted to my account. I contacted Simona on Thursday March 27 and she said that the bank didn't start the wire because it would have gone through after banking hours. So they where to start the wire transfer that morning, the morning of March 27 2008. No wire had gone to my account on March 27, 28 or 29th. I have tried to reach Simona by phone but to no avail. Only able to leave her messages and call back number on Friday March 28th. and Saturday March 29th. 2008. Simona also said that I would be reimbursed for the $200.00 USD to get the $15,000.00 USD out of escrow and my cost of $66.99 USD to send the $850.00 USD by Western Union.
I have been in contact numerous time with a person by the name of Amber at ext. 2426 and I have sent then more money to try to get there technician (for a fee of $1,475.00) to wire the money to my bank, this failed, After that failed they said that the where going to have it sent by the Canadian Postal Service Priority Mail for a discounted amount of $300.00. Amber kept saying (DO NOT TELL ANYBODY ABOUT THE DISCOUNTED PRICE, I DON'T WANT TO LOOSE MY JOB) I sent them the money. On April 29, 2008 Amber told me that the Canadian Postal Service picked up my check and it would arrive at my house with in 3-5 business days. On May 6, 2008 I contact Amber ext 2426 and complaint to her that the check has not arrived. She said that the Canadian Postal service is holding the check because they where not paid the full amount of $500.00, and Amber said that it would cost me more money, $300.00 for 5-7 days priority mail or $500.00 for 2-3 days Canadian Priority mail.
I told her NO and to refund my money.
I too and going to file complaints with the bbb. in North Carolina and Ontario Canada. I will be contacting said police departments, Secretary of State in NC and Ontario, the FBI, IC3 (internet crime force) and Western Union.
I have now made this my life passion to personally help to catch these people and make sure they go to jail for a long time.
Hopefully we can all get our money back!
