I just got the same call. I can confirm your information. I asked for a web site and he said he would look that up and disconnected the call. They know they are scammy, as reputable companies would not do that. Talking about "reputable", check out their BBB page:
They have an "F" rating. They have 96% NEGATIVE consumer reviews out of 69 reviewers. They have 575 COMPLAINTS. And the best part is BBB notes they have had Government Action in TWO STATES (Montana and Arkansas), as well as a notice of PATTERNS OF COMPLAINTS.
I'd steer well clear on this company. No wonder the dude didn't want me to look them up online.
Update, received 2 thick packets of mail from some company called:
EBIX, HEALTH ADMINISTRATION EXCHANGE (in very faded letters, suggesting to me that it looks like a poor cut & paste job, in it was a Direct Debit Authorization with my computerized signature?
Allowing a debit of $165.00 monthly from my checking account.
There were also 22 pages of EXCLUSIONS OF BENEFITS,from a company called:
IHC HEALTH SOLUTIONS INDEPENDENCE HOLDING GROUP?
For Short Term Major Medical Insurance
In conjunction with
STANDARD SECURITY LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY OF NEW YORK ?
issued through Group Policy Holder: COMMUNICATING FOR AMERICA INC. ?
And another from MUTUAL OF OMAHA for $45.00 month.
Avoid like the Plague if you get a call from these slick sales crew.
My Rep was a guy named M** R*****n
I also got bounced around when i called for assistance and asked where my plastic medical cards were, "Oh we've gone GREEN" and don't send those out was the reply from them, I said well I'll pay the 49 cents postage. It wouldn't have cost them that to include it in the 4 inch package they sent me. I am really PO'd!
