World Financial Group [WFG] Refund

"I was in search of a job when my friend enrolled me in WFG. The company charged me $169.5 for registration and background check.Also they charged $224.87 for study materials immediately. When I asked the recruiter how I would find clients, he said he would explain later.

After enrolling, I researched the company and realized that I would have to use my family and my friends as a my clients in order to earn money.I did not like that. it's not the job I'm looking for. My agent code is 263HNC.

I kindly request a refund of my money and the removal of my personal information, including my email and credit card details, from your database. Please process this request as soon as possible."

World Financial Group [WFG] - Unauthorized background check and transaction - urgent action required

Hello, I am writing to express my extreme dissatisfaction and concern regarding an incident that has taken place without my consent. I recently discovered that a background check was conducted on my behalf by WFG Canada Compliance, initiated from the email address [protected]@transamerica.com for the purpose of obtaining a licensing agent position...

World Financial Group [WFG] WFG

I joined WFG few months back, I wasn't clearly told about refund policy. In fact, I was told if I don't find the sessions useful, I can ask for refund. Everything on zoom took place so quickly that I was asked to pay. I insisted on reading the contract but was told that terms are very general and sent the contract to read after signing. Now when I requested for refund, I was told that refund policy was 60 days. This is the first time I m hearing this. Please help me get the refund.

Desired outcome: Getting the refund for 150 dollars.

World Financial Group [WFG] Scam

I was contacted by this guy via a Whatsapp group for people who are seeking employment on a Friday, Aug 4 2023. He gave little to no information and when asked questions, the answers never made any sense. As I was very desperate for employment, I had no other choice.

Aug 9 2023, was like the 4th Zoom call, after finishing the presentation, now you are ready to be onboarded and proceeded that way. I was pressured and he took advantage of the situation and made me do finish that payment.

Knowing that this is all a scam, I reached out to my credit card issuer and they said that they cannot raise a dispute as I have given the details voluntarily. There's no link or section to raise an escalation on this matter on WFG page.

Desired outcome: 169.50

World Financial Group [WFG] Amara Evans

I was solicited on LinkedIn by an agent and was asked if I was interested in an interview on Sunday the 7th of May, 2023. I agreed to the interview and it took place Monday the 8th at 6:30 via zoom. I felt like extremely manipulated as I was made to feel that I must have morals and principles to be hired (even though I don’t think she is a hiring manager, I think she was just an agent trying to get a bonus) and at the end and being told I had the job was told I had to pay $125 in order to proceed. I was also told I was my own boss and I made my own schedule. After signing a document I couldn’t read as I was sent the document while on zoom, I stupidly entered my card information as I felt pressured and uncomfortable. I was then told after paying that I had to attend meetings Monday and Thursday every week, even though I was told I made my own schedule. I texted the agent right after signing and told her to cancel my application and that I didn’t want to move forward. She immediately jumped into trying to ask why to sell me on moving forward. Two hours later I get an email stating my application was approved and realized this agent had not cancelled anything. I was told this was for a federal background check and that was it… After doing research, a background check does not cost $125. I feel extremely mislead, guilty, dirty, and manipulated. I want my money back, and I want nothing to do with WFG.

Desired outcome: I want a refund, as I cancelled my application prior to it being processed or approved.

World Financial Group [WFG] Refund Request

4 days back, one person who introduced himself as a Recruiter told me he has a job for me as I was looking for a job I said ok. Then, he setup a Zoom meeting and told me he is earning money and it is a great opportunity you should try that. At that time, I refused and told him maybe in future but he was very persistent and told me you can just register and can apply for your license whenever you feel ready. So, his persistent behavioral make an influence on me and I paid $169.50 and got registered. And on the next day, I came to know about whole process and I feel this was knowledge and compliance fail on behalf of recruiter.

Desired outcome: I would like to get a refund for full amount that is $169.50 and I would really appreciate that. Thanks

World Financial Group [WFG] Unethical practices by higher management

I am a WFG advisor. I joined 5 years ago, when I joined, they told me after I become a SMD level contract, I would get 12% commission override for life. When I did get to that level where I can finally get override, They told me I will only get 6% override because I have make certain amount money from my own business every six months. This was never ever revealed to me until the time actually came to earn 12%. I am not the only one but I found out this is what they doing to everyone. I am very upset that they told us we can retire if we have a good team because you get 12% override but not knowing that I will have to work hard all my life now to get that. When I asked my senior, they saying the rules recently changed but they don't tell anyone until time comes. I would not have joined another insurance company instead if I had known. Now they don't let me take my book of business if I go and kind of making you stuck here. The management is very greedy. now the other 6% goes to the person above me. Not very happy at all

World Financial Group [WFG] licensing

My agent # is: 10UHZC. I was applying my license and I sent the E-contract application to WFG for LLQP Ontario License. After more than week later, I received an email from Chitra Kshatriya, a senior associate of contracting and licensing department. She needed documents from me, which included my new SIN #, even though, I filled in my current SIN # which was and still is valid on the E-contract application. I don't know how I can give her a new SIN # if my SIN number is still valid. Due to this, I wasted the days in my validity period to apply for My Ontario License. But now, I don't wish to have any relations with WFG, but a few days ago I paid for new membership to apply for a new license, which was for $170 and I would like a refund of that amount. Next time, please make sure that they don't do it to anyone else, so that nobody else would go through what I went through.

Desired outcome: I would like a refund for $170 from WFG.

World Financial Group [WFG] refund for convention ticket ( cancelled convention)

Hi,
I was as associate with wfg . I started last year ; feb 2020. I paid $127.85 on feb 27, 2020 for a convention ticket. The convention never happened and no body addressed the issue for refund of that money sitting in WFG's pocket. I was told it will be adjusted in next convention. I terminated my contract with the company in march 2021 and i would like to get my money back. I called the company helpline multiple times but they never responded. I have my credit card statement as proof of purchase.
Thanks

World Financial Group [WFG] unethical behavior and illegal practice

- This incident was discovered on July 02, 2019, and I am not sure what date this unethical / illegal practice was initiated.

(2) Nita Dalal
(3) Gaeton
- Desirable Solution: Reinstate my wife under me directly.
