A person by the name of Angel called me offering to help me rebuild my credit with the purchase of their credit card. They would debit my bank account (the call was on 2/27/08) on 3/7/08 and 3/14/08 $125 each for a total of $250, and in return they would issue me their credit card with an available balance of $2500 with no apr. Like a fool -- I gave them my name, address, birthday, social security number, and account info to my checking account. I have not heard anything from them and they have no reasonable answers to my phone calls. I would like to institute fraud charges against them but do not know how.

I am up in age and am on a fixed income with barely enough money to house and feed myself.

I was never told by the person that called me that the only place I could use this card was for on-line purchases. I know that the recorded message did say something about where you could use the card, but unfortunately I guess I wasn't paying goo d attention and the girl that I was speaking with never said one word about the fact that the card could only be used for online purchases. So I feel that I have been screwed out of $250 that I didn't have to give away.

My feelings on this company are that they are nothing but a scam that prey on people that are trying to help themselves.

My name is Jeremy Street and my fiance was recently scammed by US GOLDLINE so I decided to put up a website to help bring legal action against them. I am going to forward all the info posted on the site to the attorney generals office once a week until action is taken. I have had enough! If you have had ENOUGH sign up and post your comment here!

Together we CAN make a difference!

Like a fool, I did the same thing... except when I called the number, that all you seem to have, I asked them to stop the payment... they came with this bullshit ass excuse about how they couldn't stop the payment.. they could only cancel it and how they can't GUARANTEE that it would be stopped!! I am so fucking pisseed off about this situation!! Another way you can tell it is a rip-off... if you listen carefully when they are speaking to you... there is someone else telling the representative that is talking to you what to say!! I tell you what... the ext time someone calls my cell phone about any damn thing I know I didn't ask for... I'mma curse they ass out from Heaven to Hell!! I just may call them back and curse they ass the fuck out!! Oh just in case some of you did not know... someone will answer the number you all have... they just have you on hold for so long you just hang up!! But if you just hold on... hell put the phone on speaker phone until someone picks up... thats what I did!! They ass got served too!!

I wish I would have done my research before I got involved with this bullshit... I know better next time... hopefully we all learned a valuable lesson here... Everything that sound good aint always good for ya!!

Signing out...

Based upon the spelling and the grammar used in the above entries, it appears as though you all got what you deserved. Ignorant people get what they deserve.

C'mon folks - we're bringing the human race down with this @#$%

Smarten up, huh?

I got several calls over the last couple days from usgoldline.I finally called the number back because they would never leave a message.I said my first name and they practically knew everything about me. While I was on the phone with them I looked them up on google and got a few pages of negative results. So I told them I wanted to cancel everything with them, then the representative started harrassing me telling me I should look up other companys, They basically would not give up, and they were getting even more rude with me. So basically I would not recommend them to anybody, they're very shady and will go the length with making you feel bad about your credit and made it sound like they were the only option, which is not true.

Well I am glad I came here, I came here after visiting usgoldline.com and seeing that none of the Links work!... luckily it was only yesterday I signed up, and they are not supposed to take the money out for a couple of weeks, I tried to call back the number to see if I could cancel, and wouldn't ya know it?..I got through a hell of a lot faster yesterday before I signed up.. now I will have to wait forEVER on hold to talk to someone... But it's not too late for me... I can re-open a new bank account and close this one before the money is withdrawn. Now I was cautious with them... but they already had my Routing number and some other of my info!... I did just get a loan from a trustworthy credit website, and figured this company was a referral from them. I could hear a LARGE customer service center in the backround and previous attempted scammers don't generally have that.

This is a scam! Best thing you can do is not try any of these "quick fixes" for damaged credit. Just try hard to pay what bills you have on time from here on out and your credit will eventually repair itself. Most creditors will work with you in paying which will help.

They did the same to me & I am sure the original rep that I spoke to did not explain everything. The rep says that you will receive a credid card, & even on the phone call the rep continued to refer to it as a credit card. A $2500 line credit card to use with select vendors. The only vendor is "USGOLDLINE.COM".
They also quoted that i would be elidgable for a cash advance on my credit card. The cash advance is not even affiliated with USGOLDLINE. Its one of these $1500 cash advances that I can get from one of these companies that advertise on google. I feel like i have been mislead and ripped off & taken for a bad ride... "In my & several others opinion" Anyone reading this SHOULD NOT NOT NOT do business with this company. The crazy thing, is that your credit line is only good for a small portion of the purchase price... If a tv costs $1300, you finance $300 with them & the rest comes out of your bank account. Also they send you vouchers for $250, but those can only be used on your monthly payment. This is the biggest scam... I am not ashamed to say that I was a fool for signing up for this crap. In this economy this company is making things worse by taking advantage of people in need of actual credit assistance...

I almost fell for this about 6 months ago. They Just called me today to try to get me to sign up with them. Calling me at work no less. I will rebuild my own credit in the legal and responsible way, not having to be scammed by anyone.

their new number is 866-710-8746 @4:21pm they call me and had a lot of my bank information and all i know is that this could be you now but i have a alert on my name and phone number and social security and i am going to report you even further than this. i hope you reap what you are doing out here to be done to your family and you personally from stealing peoples money and identitiy. may your creator rush your wages of your sin upon you now in jesus name amen.

Im also receiving calls from this #, I think my # was released by a pay day advance loan company that promised they would not release my info, which I guess was a lie.
