Little about me I am single mother of two making 22 thousand a years as a teacher and recieve no child support.

]]> Sat, 20 Apr 2013 08:50:40 UTC 15101586 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/14840741?utm_medium=rss Thrive Learning Institue is nothing more then a company who has dishonest business practices. They give you a 90 day time period to cancel their program, but when you call to cancel you only reach voicemail. I have sent 10 emails to them requesting a refund and only now get a response after filing a complaint with the FTC and Utah Dept of Cosumer Protection. Even now they only want to provide a 50% refund which is unacceptable. I am still pursuing the entire refund amount. They call their fee "tuition" when in fact it is nothing more then a registration fee. Despite them saying it is tax deductable it is in fact not. Do not trust a word of what they say!

]]> Wed, 6 Mar 2013 03:48:26 UTC 14840741 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/14758459?utm_medium=rss i was scammed by focus learning center for over $12,000. they charged on 2 credit cards (which i gave them permission) i was so confused by their high pressure, bullying, presistant questions and demanding answers along with faulse promises. i didn't know who they were or what was going on. when i realized i had been scammed i called both credit cards and disputed. 1 of them reversed the charge the other has not. i have disputed it 4 times, sent in all info. proving they are scammers and if they don't reverse the charge they will be giving them $9,000. for nothing because they only solution focus lc offers is to rejoin. they breached the contract before i ever signed it and i am having to do a lot of writting to many agency's FTC, CFPB, BBB, ect to get the rest of my money. i will not stop until they do the right thing and i refuse to pay the $9,000. the credit card didn't see that charge as unusual activity and did not red flag it, i called and told them it was a scam when the charge was pending so i am also going after the bank for not protecting me per their policy. shame on people who steal your money.

The Summit Group took me for $12,250.00 and I was stupid enough to think I was taking a course. After spending a lot more money on dropshippers, sites and watching lots of videos, I was left with nothing. I have been severely depressed and had to see a dr because of it. I am a senior on a fixed income and have nothing now at all. I did report to Utah's BBB but it did not help. Everyone else beware of these people. They are stealing our money and do not care other than the fact that they take our money. We get nothing at all out of this venture so please stay away from letting them take your money. They left me broke and now I have nothing but debt courtesy of Thrive and the Summit Group.

]]> Fri, 24 Aug 2012 02:38:01 UTC 13600501 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/13282398?utm_medium=rss My wife and I purchased a package from NMR after purchasing a book on an infomercial from Dave Espino. We were called a couple weeks after receiving the book and were put in a high pressure sales pitch from two males out of Utah. The price was exorbitant for the package, but the man on the phone was very glib and instilled confidence that the $9000 dollar package was worth it and outlined how we could easily make our money back and start profiting. Two years later we realize just how slick these individuals were and how the fee we paid cannot be justified. We have read from other's complaints that the same packages were sold for less than half what we paid. We are extremely unhappy with NMR and their high pressure practices and would like them stopped. They are selling unrealistic dreams to good people and putting great financial burdens on the same people.

None of the training was like I was told it would be, and even when I did what I was told, when I asked too many questions, 2 coaches dumped me. My cc company is disputing the charges.

]]> Fri, 2 Mar 2012 12:22:22 UTC 12302454 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/11837954?utm_medium=rss I was sold a lot of promises saying that I would make lots of money by following the Thrive Learning Institure training. When I tried to follow their help, they did not provide adequate assistance and were not available to help when I needed the help. Their materials were very basic and not functional for me.

]]> Fri, 4 Nov 2011 01:00:56 UTC 11449223 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/11345130?utm_medium=rss Was so believable that this was a great on-line company that was really going to do everything to help you succeed as long as you spent at least 10 hours a week on it. I spent a great deal more time than that and never got anywhere but further in debt. How do they feel good about themselves? I followed all the steps and always received the run around with the coaches. It was like throwing your money on a tread mill that turned into a blackhole...and now they have managed to ruin my credit.

]]> Tue, 18 Oct 2011 09:38:33 UTC 11345130 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/11036450?utm_medium=rss I lost over $15000.00 to Thrive by way of the Summit Group LLC. and setting up a store and business #. I actually thought I was buying into a great company willing to train me for working and building a site on line. I worked very hard but couldn't reach the coaches most of the time. After months of trying I had a mental breakdown and tried to get my money back. I never did. That was in 2008 and I am broke. They scammed a senior (me) living on a fixed income. Would love to be paid back.

I wasn't told about the 3 day cooling off period in which one can cancel so I thought I was stuck. When I learned it was fraudulent, I saught a refund and I haven't seen a penny of a refund yet, from any of them.

]]> Sat, 16 Apr 2011 04:05:23 UTC 10252280 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/10117282?utm_medium=rss This program was sold as somthing that was totally different than it really was. During each call I was thinking... is this really it? My coach was not a website owner making thousands from his website...but a college student trying for a degree. Tons of money wasted for a breifing on the ebay site.

]]> Wed, 30 Mar 2011 09:53:42 UTC 10117282 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/8929798?utm_medium=rss Thrive Institute and its affiliates have refused to give me a full refund of $2,400, after asking them within the 90 days of being a client of the company. After 1 year, nothing has been done from the company nor have they contacted me to help with their so called programs they have available. They have no interest in my success in their program. All they want is your money and run with it, and never be heard of again. To me, these guys are scammers. Whatever happened to company integrity?

]]> Wed, 17 Nov 2010 11:19:47 UTC 8929798 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/8867839?utm_medium=rss They said at The Focus that I had 3 days to think it over. When I called them back in less than 24 hrs they said I could not cancel that they would not let me. John told me that I was not in my right mind and that he would call me back tomorrow. Trying to drag the 3 days out.

I have sent information to FTC, FBI, Attorney Generals of Alabama and Boise, Id. and my credit card company. This is in redispute. Within 3 days of the transaction I asked to cancel and was told I could not cancel. I am a widow on a limited income and am not mentally or physically able to do ths program. There has been many complaints about this company and yet they continue to beallowed to operate. Big time scammers.

The sales pitch bears no resemblance to the real product which is actually worthless and will not help you form a succesful on-line business as they claim.

Received minimal help during first 4 months. Spent several months getting product on site. Was not given go ahead to put site live as suddenly there was a list of steps that were to be reviewed one at a time and approved before I went further. I had never been informed of these steps which required me to start all over with site construction. I asked for help with this, received no answer. Asked for a refund in Oct 2009. Still no answer.
