Was looking for a loan on line. I was contacted by email by this company claiming I had been approved for $5000. Since my credit is less than golden, I would have to pay 3 months of payments up front and then it was I had to pay for an insurance policy then they wanted 3 more months of payments upfront. All this money was or was supposed to be sent to Ontario Canada.

I just wanted to know if you got your money back and if so how long did it take you to get it back

  • I just got approved through Beaumont Referrals under the same terms. They told me that the lender would require 3 months upfront. Did they specify to you who the lender was?

  • The lender was supposed in Canada. I too was told it would be 3 month upfront. Then I had to pay for an insurance policy. Then they wanted 3 more months upfront. When I confronted them about not honoring the contract I signed asking for only the 3 months upfront I was told it would be 30 days before I got my funds returned by certified check.

  • Walter I'm glad you got your loan...i am still awaiting for my funds...i have now put in 2700 not including the money to transfer all this. I was supposed to have my funds yesterday by 7 pm..now they tell me they are having problems with western union transferring the money...sarah I have been speaking with a woman named mechelle...if this helps and she told me it would take 14- 30 days to do a refund.i think if I don't get my funds today I am taking this to the bbb and to an attorney with all emails and paperwork that I have kept

  • I still have no loan and now they are telling me I have to send ANOTHER $500 for conversion fees...that would total up to over 3700 to get a loan from this company. I have all documents and emails and am going to consult an attorney Monday morning. 484+484+484+550+750 and now they want more + all the fees it cost to send these funds. Lets see that would be 120+60+100 ...I think I have had it with this company and their lies.

  • Jolyn,

    I'm sorry to hear about your experience. To clarify, I didn't receive any money from Beaumont. I spoke with a guy named Paul. He told me the same three month scenario. I asked him how he would respond to people that have put money out upfront and hadn't received their loan. He told me that these people weren't actually approved. Then he proceeded to give me some tired analogy about how if someone complained about a Mcdonald's hamburger that it doesn't make Mcdonald's bad. Ridiculous!

  • For the record, I'm not an employee there. My conscience wouldn't allow me to work at such a place. I have a family of four and really could use the loan. Obviously from reading what I've read on here and talking to the company, there is nothing that makes me comfortable about moving forward. I sincerely wish you and the others well in your efforts to get this resolved. Meanwhile if anyone has any suggestions on legit lenders that would give an unsecured loan to a borrower with 500 scores, please advise. I'm currently in underwriting with Wells Fargo so we'll see what happens. They wouldn't require any money upfront. I'm just not optimistic based on being turned down by a few places.
