ahh yeah, sounds like your having far less than positive cash flow!

Jail Time Anyone?

Someone should take the CEO, COO, and any other higher executives and throw them in Jail. Not only will alot of their small to medium business customers lose money over this, all of their employee's are now forced to look for employment, which I am sure all of them will go on unemployment till they find a new job. There is no excuse for this.

I recommend Jail Time!!!

Yeah, and they still have "career opportunities" as well!

Thank GOD

They sent a high pressure sales person to my Office a few months ago. I knew there was something wrong when the guy kept on using the term screening and that he was interviewing us.He was making comments like we'll review your credit worthiness and decide of your right for us. He made it seem like it was a great honor for them to consider us. I basically did my best to push the sales person out the door! I knew something was fishy.

This sort of reminds me of when a company that I worked for years ago called @Link went out of business. Hey, I didn't know there were still these sorts of places around to go under.

Re: sad

There were many, obvious red flags. The real sad part is how many people could still sleep at night, knowing what they were doing.

I'm glad you saved me from searching the site lol

I remember the monstrous threads about this company, there were alot of questions then, and apparently for very good reason.

Re: Jail Time Anyone?

The sad thing is what they did is legal, unethical, but legal, the got 70% of thier money up front from leases for equipment that cost around $2K but selling to the leasing company for around $60000. Leasing companies don't check retail values, to them is just a loan commitment to the customer. Most leases these days are nothing more than loans.

I am sure there is something they can hang these guys with, but it won't be this.

We have a customer who is ready for when things end, we implemented a dial-up backup in his netopia R9100 router we provided for him earlier., so when norvergence ends his router will simply switch to a dialup connection with a solvent provider allowing them something until thier new provider gets them connected. (30 day lead time).

Anyone else interested in this solution contact us, »www.maedata.net

LIARS LIARS!!!

After they cut off our cell phones a couple of months ago they said it was a "FRAUD SCREEN"!!! I was sure they just didn't pay the provider and I guess I was right! They lost ALL of our phone numbers which we had for years. It was a nightmare!!!! Cost my salespeople and me lot of $$$!!!!
Now I'm scrambling to keep my small business going by getting new providers ASAP. I don't even know WHERE they were getting the DSL service from!
They lied and lied to us so many times. They all belong in JAIL!!!!!
