Goodman Financial
Complaint 235322 Details

I was desperate to get a personal loan. Throgh the internet I came upon this company. At the time, I told the person who represented himself to me as Jason Pittman that I thought that the deal seemed suspect. He reminded me that I called him and he just trying to assist me in attaining a loan. I have fairly bad credit and when they said that they could help me I agreed
to try to meet their standards to get the money I so desperately needed. For collaterol they would need a car title. When I couldn't produce one they said that they worked with private investors who required some form of collaterol. Eventually they came up with a solution. I could provide them with cash, at first they required $850.00 plus the cost of Western Union delivery. I couldn't meet that level of cash so afteer supposedly speaking to his manager they could lower that amount to $650.00 plus Western Union totalling $708.00. They had me sign a contract and mail them a photocopy of my state issued ID. They were going to wire the $5000.00 directly into my bank account by 10:AM Friday morning. When the money did not arrive I called back and was then speaking with the executive loan manager Peter Schilling. He said that from then on all correspondence would have to go through him. He stated that the reason the money did not go through becuase the collaterol had been deemed inadequate. He told me that I would need to come up with an additional $850.00 for the loan to be approved. I then told him that I had used my rent money to come up with the original $708.00 and that I couldn't possibly get together any more funds. He urged me to borrow from friends and family. I tried but was unable to procure the funds. He then told me that they would issue me a refund by direct deposit but that their refund date would not be until April 27,2013. I told them that I had entrusted them with my rent money that was due in just a few days and that was my tough luck. I called back on seveal occasions to be received by the relentless,unapologetic, unsympathetic Peter Schilling. I had somewhat researched the company online to see if there were any complaints about the company and really if it really existed and was reassured at every turn. www.goodmanfinancial.org. Somewhere along the line it dawned on me that A pril 27th was a Saturday and not only would they not be open, my bank did not do direct deposit on the weekends. I called Goodwin Financial and it was a that time the telephone number had been disconnected and of course when April 27th came no refund. I should let you know that they have my routing number, my account number, the bank name, my identification or drivers lisence number, and social security number so it is paramount to me that these guys get caught.if it i any help to your organizationI will tell you that I saved the contract,loan agreement, the money transfer through Western Union which was picked up by a lady named Kristen Liverpool in Manhattan, NY. I don't know if it is possible to retrieve my money but seeing as I am a disabled American veteran living on a fixed income it sure would be a great help to me.
