Diane from 317-456-5319 called and said she was from Merchant Services. She said she wanted to make us aware that there was a possible reimbursement for the increase that had taken effect on 10/1/2011. The notice should have been sent out with the December statement but most of their merchants did not receive it. She needed to go ahead and go over that with them. She gave her toll free number to call her back at 855-270-9974 Ext 7043. When you speak with her she wants you to fax a copy of your latest credit card Paymentech report to her attention at 949-313-0947 for Chad to review. Then Chad would be in the area on Friday this week to review. This is a SCAM!!!
855 270 9974 ex 7815 Merchant Services Inc. Blind cold call. Guy wanted to set up a time where one of his representatives would drop by our office for our annual review of our merchant acct fees/services. Nice guy who needs the work, but the company pulled my info from a public source that has only attracted scammers, snake oil sales men, and over-all scum bags. We have/had no relationship with this company. It was a thinly vailed sales call. For that alone, I would never give them the time of day, much less let them know anything about our finances.
How is this a scam ? i dont understand ... This company has been in business over 15 years , they have helped thousands of merchants lower there cost for processing ... you shop around for car insurance dont you ? this isnt any different ... having you fax in the statement is to help the rep become more prepared for meeting with you and making sure they can offer you the lowest price possible ... and if there are excessive overchargers YOU WILL IN FACT BE RE IMBURSED
