I am investigating Lease Finance Group LLC for my Client. My client states that he never heard of this organization until they started taking sums of money from his personal account. It appears that my client is not alone. I am collecting proof for my client and would be glad to work with anyone else that is having trouble with this business. You may contact me at Farrar Investigations. [email protected] If we can round up our complaints together, we can stop this fraudulent business. Any attorneys that are already at work have my clients support. Thank you for your cooperation to clean up America!

Starting a new phone sales business in August 2007, I was approached by a representative of LFG. I leased a credit card payment machine from this company. After 2 months, the machine broke. I repeatedly called and asked for someone to come and repair the machine, but no one ever came. After another 2 months, I lost my business due to no one being able to make payments at my store. I refused to make another payment on my lease since it was their broken machine that caused me to lose my business. They got a hold of my credit card number from a previous transaction and began to charge the lease payments on it. I cancelled the card, and since then, I have repeatedly been harassed by LFG. They call and call and send threatening letters. I have now received a letter stating that I have been summoned to appear in the Civil Court of the CIty of New York. If I do not appear, I will lose my property and my wages will be garnished.

I have the Summons and the letters stating this information, but do not have a scanner to scan them in and attach at the moment.

Is this legal? Can they do this to me? Please help. This has been extremely stressful and now scary to think I may lose my property after losing my business.

Thank you,

My business started receiving more requests for credit card payment. I shopped for credit card equipment and found a local salesperson (Jack McAdory) apparently working for Merchant Solutions or an independent agent for Merchant Solutions. He claims to offer the best rates and asks for a lease on the credit card equipment. I asked about the purchase price for the equipment and he told me the equipment isn't available for sale. In the end, I signed a lease for 48 months at $69 a month for a piece of equipment that I can buy on the internet for $135. It is my fault for not doing more research, but I prefer doing business face-to-face.

I called him to tell him I wanted out of the lease and told him to take back the equipment. He told me I couldn't do that. I looked on the internet and found the price of the same equipment for $135 for purchase. I also found page after page of complaints on the internet regarding Lease Finance Group, LLC.

With my first phone call they told me that they would cancel the lease and I can return the equipment. Hopefully it is that easy to finalize my mistake with doing business with this company.
