Movie facts called my place of business and told us we would have 3 months of advertising for 50.00 a month for 3 months , I had paid my first payment of 100.00 and kept receiving bills saying I hadn't paid , I sent them a copy of my canceled check they cashed and an additional 50 to pay my balance.I got several phone calls saying I owe them almost double what I was quoted. I got numerous phone calls, I returned a call today with them to tell me I agreed to a 250.00 dollar ad which I would have never signed up for that amount.my employees also talked wit them about the 150.00 dollar ad. The lawyers office told me I was on a recording which I listened to, I told her they must have changed the amount because I know what they quoted us and I never would have agreed to 250.00 she said they didn't do that, than I looked this up on the computer and realized that there are many more complaints with the same issues. so now I know they scammed us also, and are somehow riggin up there recordings to all of us.I hope everyone else this has happened to will also speak up.
I received a call from a Movie Facts sales person stating they were given my name and number from a local chamber of commerce. I purchased an ad although I had not seen the finished product, knowing I could cancel shortly if I chose to.
The next day, I went by a local movie theater and saw the advertising product and was not satisfied with the offering. So I was pleased when I received a call from my sales person, making another offer, and told her I wanted to cancel my ad contract. She said ok, as thought it would be canceled. You can imagine how surprised I was when I received an invoice 30 days later.
When I call the company, I was given the run around about how the sales person did not have the authority to cancel my order and should have called someone else. This “routine” tells me they are used to handling issues and therefore do not offer a product that can stand up to close inspection.Otherwise, they would be just as willing to cancel within 24 hours of the initial agreement.
I’m not sure the company practices fit the legal definition of “scam” but they do fit my definition of suspected business practices. Therefore, I offer other prospective customers the wise words of “buyer beware.”
As for now, I have been threated to be reported to a collection agency and their legal department. I wonder what will happen when they find out the sales person called me back and did not pass along my cancelation request, especially as it was made within 24 hours of the agreement. Stay tuned for details.
