ADVANAGE "THE WONDER CLEANER" advanage HARVEY Illinois

 It is illegal to post date a check. A professional financial institution will not accept it period. So if it was deposited the date on the check was not recognized only the date of deposit. Since the rest is done electronically that date would have no bearing or effect. Absolutely correct that its irresponsible in this situation.

 Ok in my personal expeience this product is wonderfull it's not good for hardwood as it's meant go cut grease and so it strips the oil from the wood (which I put there intentionally to protect the wood) but it cleanes EVERYTHING else in my house beautifully. The young woman who sold it to me was real down to earth and totally honest. She offered to let us post date our check and so we POST DATED the check. You are very irrisponsible to have not done this. Its the same as giving someone your CC number if the check is made out to a company and has your signature on it they Have a right to cash it for what ever amount and whatever date you wrote on it. If you post date a check no bank will cash it until the date YOU write on the check its as simple as that. Stop being a baby and take responsibility for your own mistake.

Hi Andrew, I was just visited by an Advantage Door to door sales rep. The whole sales pitch stank as bad as the cleaner. I would first like to apologize because I'm going to be blunt. I'm sorry that you were taken by this, and for so much, but this is a perfect example of "buyer beware." Had you done research prior to being bilked out of $250, you would have seen this scam operating across the US. Ultimately, it does not fall on Advanage to replace any cash past the $250 you paid for the product. Never trust a salesman because they are there to part you from your money. Again, buyer beware. If you didn't have money in your account 'that day' to cover the cost of the product, that responsibility is on you - along with the fallout. Not on Advanage. It's clear that this company is a scam, and I'm sorry this happened to you. In the end, I hope that this ordeal did teach a lesson (albeit an expensive one): Do your research, and don't get pressured into buying something that you can't afford. Best of luck.

280-174= 106.

By taking the total amount of debt you provided, which was 280 (roughly estimated and rounded), and subtract the amount you claim you were charged because of the price of the product and other fees, which is 174 (again roughly estimated and rounded (RER)), we find that the cost of your two pending withdrawls would be 106 (RER). You claim you account only contained 104, which means one of the pending payment withdrawls would have bounced and would be NSF.

You can not, in my opinion, blame the company for the negative funds you are claiming. Your withdrawls mean you would have overextended the account yourself. The company may be responsible for some of the fees you received from NSF, but you also have responsibility. You would have went negative and had NSF penalties because you did not have sufficient funds in your account yo cover you scheduled withdrawls.

I also believe you acted in an irresponsible way writing a check knowing you did not have sufficient funds to cover. It does not matter what the employee told you, you still made the choice to write a check from an account that did not contain sufficient funds. The employee was wrong to tell you the check had two weeks, however you made the choice to write the check.

i think that your are not 100% innocent in this instance and that you would go to court with, "dirty glands", which means you would be suing someone for wrongdoing while you yourself was involved in wrong doing. The company is 100% responsible for the negative ammount of your account, including all fees, and you are not 100% innocent in my opinion.

I believe that this is the same company, I paid 75.95 for the smaller deal. they are located at 3993 sunrise lane Las Vegas, NV and I believe selling same products and make no delivery. I called them on three different occasions the same gentleman answers, I send him my proof of purchase and still nothing. I finally went thru PayPal suddenly I got not so nice reply from him. His email is chrisjacksonbiz@yahoo.com. I only hope you can get him off the streets.

Thank you!!

First, regarding the original complaint, do not write a check if you don't have the funds in your account. Second, I purchased this product only because the salesman was working so hard. It is fantastic! I have never been able to get grout clean. My floor now looks brand new again. For that alone the product was worth it, but it also cleaned up grease stains beautifully. Happy I took the chance, and even if it hadn't worked that great I would have only been out $40, because I had the funds in my account.

     The wife wanted ALL tile on the downstairs.  I'm from upstate NY not a fan of tile.  She won...ALL tile..  Not to bad.  however 6 years later, the grout needed cleaning.  Got some bleach, nothing seemed to work.  Called for a professional quote, and they wanted about $200 bucks....  Super!!  As if my prayers were being answered, two young ladies, happened to knock on the door one day, offering this product.  I usually thank them and send them along their way, but she asked, "what are you having trouble cleaning?"  Well, being smart, thinking I was gonna catch them off guard, I told them the grout.  BAMM  a second later she is spraying, lightly...and i mean lightly rubbing the grout, and to my suprise, clean!  SOLD..  I paid $60 bucks for two bottles.  a buck for a brush, and spent two days cleaning the grout.  It looks like when we moved in.  Brand new.  I DO think this is a good product.  I have cleaned stubborn carpet spots, chairs, cabinets, grout...I would have bought more, however, as Sarah said, I only had enough cash for two bottles.  I wasn't about to write a check to people off the street, or supply them with credit card info.  If you are willing to do that, you are asking for problems.  If you are willing to write a check that you do not have the funds to cover, YOU are the problem, and EXTREMELY irresponsible, and deserve your misery.  You earned it.. enjoy.. 

Rule #1: If you don't have the money in your account, do not write the check.

It is your own fault, and if I worked for this company I wouldn't waste my time calling you back either. Learn to live within your means. If you don't get paid for 2 weeks, don't buy something today. Buy it in 2 weeks. Take responsibility for your own actions. Take responsibility for your money.

This situation is not Advanage's fault, and they should not be obligated to refund your money or make up the negative balance in your checking account.

I have talk to one person on the phone the same person you have, and she told me the woman Cassie who sold my product to me was fired, just the day before i called 3 days after, i told the cassie i have to ask my husband, she was like well i can hold a check for you, if u dont want it just call we wont cash it untl the first, well i checked the account and guess what, the check was cashed, she had me write it to barry fisher. I was so mad, thats when i called, because i had not recieved the other things that came along with it. I dont know what to do, i call every fricking day. i just called to tell them i know the liers, and i beet the person wasnt even fired. i have not recieved the rest of my products, it was only 34.95, but that is allot for us right now. i HAVE ANOTHER # TO CALL THAT I GOT FROM THE BACK OF MY CHECK. I am so mad!! what should i do?aww!

I am the one that filed the report but i gave NO account info or me social security # nor dste of birth or year of birth so i'm in the clear

Do not fax them your account balance. #1 call your bank and tell them this story, they will change your account numbers.

If you gave this guy your social security number and happed to say I was born in in X year, and he said really, when is your birthday. You have trouble.

When you call your bank ask them if they have an Identity Theft program.

What was the cleaning 'kit' that cost $250.00? For that did someone do the cleaning for you?
