1 /5 Alicia Green: I decided to take a chance and do business with Marie because of the positive feedback I’d been hearing on the radio and some review online. I called and left a message inquiring more info on the PPPLoan and the grant. A couple of days later I received a group text message with 9 other people who I had absolutely no idea who they were. I later figure out who the person was behind the text. Marie Deary soliciting $500 just to look at your email and any other info. I’m the text message she listed the items that you needed to make copies and email back to her which were an id/ drivers license, recent bank statement, SS card, copy of voided check, and a schedule C. Me being anxious, I emailed those items right away then I called to see how to make payment and to whom. When I called Marie answered and was very rude. She asked for my payment info and was very short with me not wanting to answer any further questions. So I took a chance and paid the $500 fee. She said she would be contact me as soon as she received the payment. A day or 2 later o checked my account and noticed she charged my account $500. I was a little surprised that she did not call or send any confirmation saying that she charged my account. She also never followed up about my application or status. I waited about two weeks before contacting her. I called the number she sent the group text message from. When she answered she was very rude and even asked me how did I get her number. I had to remind her it was from the group text she solicited the $500 to look at any email. She then told me not to call her because she was extremely busy dealing with other applicants. She said she would contact me as soon as she heard back from the lenders. About 2 months later and I’m still waiting for a phone call or email on my status. Marie didn’t keep her word. I paid you to do a service and you didn’t keep up your end of the bargain. I’ll take the $500 investment as a lesson instead of a loss. I will see my investment come back somehow and someway. I’m not worried. But anyone else thinking about doing business with Marie, do your research and proceed with caution.
