Aggressive Tactics, Not Recommended
This company is aggressive, and I lost trust in them. I was just exploring their website to get information, and next thing I know they are emailing me to confirm an appointment. Then I kept getting emails and texts to confirm the appt. I cancelled it, then decided to reschedule a free consultation for the following day. Again, received too many emails and texts. Then I received a phone call, they wanted to ensure that I was willing to pay the $8,000-13,000 required for a package. I informed them that I felt they were being a bit aggressive, assured them that I was seriously considering their services, but was looking for a supplemental service (as seen on their website), not a full package. Representative said they could do that. So I agreed to continue with the consult. Then I received a call back from the representative saying that they do not provide the supplemental service he had told me about. So I ended up cancelling, and I would not consider them again. Unprofessional and deceptive.
