I was contacted by Ameritrust Financial and was told that with a $200.00 deposit, I could obtain a credit card with a credit limit of $2,000.00. I gave my information, and the money was deducted from my checking account and I received a letter of verification in the mail that I had to sign in order to obtain the credit card.
At NO time during the "recorded" conversation was I told that Ameritrust Financial was a catalog company and that the credit card could ONLY be used on their merchandise. I contacted them to get my $200.00 back and have yet to get a return call.
DO NOT trust these people - this is a SCAM - save your money. If you want a credit card go to your bank - get a SECURED credit card from your bank - and DO NOT trust Ameritrust Financial.
I plan to pursue this as far as I can take it and get my $200.00 back.
