wholesale-portal.com Very misleading and deceitful Internet
Like alot of people my husband and I were looking to make some extra money. I found a website that really sounded exactly like what we were looking for called wholesale-portal.com. It claims to provide dropshippers you can begin using to make money the very next day. It also offers a 14 day money back guarantee that eases you into paying to become a member. After paying to join we began going through the list of dropshippers looking for products we could resell on ebay for profit. It was only then that we saw we would have to either pay even more money to join each dropshipper as a member or provide our credit card info and sign up for a trial membership and be charged later or risk not canceling before being charged just to see what price they were selling their products for. Every dropshipper we clicked on was like this and we finally gave up and stopped looking. The one dropshipper we did click on that did not require payment info before showing us their prices sold their products at a cost so high no profit could even be made when comparing their prices to ebay ended auction listings. At this point we were outraged feeling very deceived. We promptly went to the support center and submitted a request for a refund that very same day as it was obvious we had been scammed and could not possibly make money here. 3 days later I finally saw that they had responded. They said that a 50% refund might be given after they review our activity. It was only then that We even thought to click on the refund policy tab and read it. There it is in black and white that only 50% refunds might be given and they do not even have to do that if they choose not to! How crooked!! This is the most deceitful thing I have ever seen in my life!! They make their main webpage sound so great with promises of making money so easy and promises of money back if your not happy then wham! You pay your hard earned money and your screwed! I too had problems using the support center with firefox and saw that others reported the same thing. I am disputing this purchase on paypal and plan to also dispute it with my bank, the FTC, and the BBB. This company really lacks integrity by misleading people with its creative salescopy and deceptive refund policy that they know most will not think to click on. They know that most will see the words "money back guarantee" and that will be enough to seal the sale and then later they can decide not to refund customers because it's not their fault the customer did'nt read the fine print. How shady! I admit I am so stupid for falling for this but if all of my money is not refunded in FULL I am making a youtube video to hopefully warn others about this very crooked website. Freedom of speech is still my right. I hope they at least have enough integrity to give me a refund.
