I received NONE which is a BREACH OF CONTRACT! I called their customer service center, cancelled my subscription and demaned a refund 3 TIMES with no response. I wrote the Director of Publications by mail to ask for my REFUND; to NO AVAIL! This is a serious breach of contract; therefore, I am entitled to a $2000 refund.
No refunds allowed! However, NONE of the ADVERTISED MATERIALS were ever delivered; thereby creating a BREACH OF CONTRACT!! I have contacted customer service by email to request a refund due to breach of contract (3) times to no response.
I have mailed a letter to the Director of Publications at Agora Financials, again with no response. I have no recourse left but to file a very public complaint with the FTC!!
The information that these so called experts gave me was nothing more than information I either already had or was readily available to the general public. Lost over $20,000 from James Altucher's pathetic hold and buy dips recommendation. Found out that they should have known of the annual sell off every January but said nothing as we watched our investments lose over 50% in just a couple of weeks and then continue to tank.
Instead of sound advice, I have been bombarded with email ads to buy and buy and buy more and more reports till I am ready to puke!
Called to get a refund and they were quick to point out that there were no refunds. I own a company and that is simply NOT true, someone somewhere in any company can make a decision to refund a customer's money, it's not CAN'T, it's WON'T.
When you don't even attempt to come close to giving value to your customers, there should be a refund.
I'll never, ever, ever, ever buy anything from Agora Publishing or James Altucher again!
I signed up for Jim Rickards’ Gold Speculator newsletter with Byron King at $1750.00 that didn’t really offer anything profitable in gold and silver mining after an entire year passed. In fact, I lost about 30% to 40% due to their recommendations. Lately, I have been gradually liquidating the dozen or so mining stocks I purchased they recommended as they continue to go down in value for various reasons including poor business performance. (I actually have two other mining stocks I purchased on free recommendations from other sources that have actually done much better.) Agora tried to renew my subscription recently and I cancelled as I wasn't about to give them another $1750 for more overrated recommendations on underperforming mines. As a retiree on fixed income, I feel like a fool for falling for Jim and Byron’s intellectual escapades that overhype underperforming precious metal miners. These guys have cost me so much money! There ought to be a class-action suit against them for taking advantage of people in this manner. This is just plain wrong!
Upon reviewing an offer I entered my cc for a trial. The price was $49 for a year.
Upon check our receipt indicated $89. No way to back out or confirm charges. Tried to call and no answer. Tried to email three days in a row, no answer.
My credit card company says they can't do anything.
I will continue with a complaint to the bank and the Attorney General in Maryland.
While walking to Bally's from Paris Hotel there is a cosmetic shop that always has a sales person on the sidewalk and trying to get you to come in. After several years of seeing them...I had some time so...what the heck. They used an eye product that tightened the skin and helped with the dark circles...I purchased 4 products....$600.
They wanted to do a makeover on my face/neck and I made an appointment for the next day. Again, impressive immediate results. I purchased more. I refused to pay what they were asking...and please check out their website www.Agora.com.
Here is the rip....they have a 10 day return policy....they shipped everything to my home and by the time I received it...too late because I paid for it in Vegas 12 days earlier.
Very pushy sales reps and the more you resist the lower the price goes along with giving you "FREE" items. I was religious in using the product for 45 days. Saw no difference for the better in my skin. I actually did not think my skin improved. I went back to using my Strivectin regime and in 2 weeks... less wrinkles, softer texture and more lifting in the eye and mouth area.
Don't fall for it ladies. Then I thought I could try to sell the NEW products that they gave me on e-Bay...Ha, cant give it away even selling it at 75% off. I just received a letter from Agora telling me to cease putting it on e-Bay because I do not have permission to sell.
I don't want to fight with them about it. But I will be very vocal on Facebook, Twitter and internet.
Agora Products are a total rip off for the money spent. Don't do it ladies.
Was tricked/Scammed into a Jim Rickards Strategic Intelligence Newsletter that costs $99 without knowing. This is what happened:
I'm subscribed to the FREE newsletter email from ROBERT Kiyosaki of richdad.com I receive many emails of different services, mostly offers of jobs a mom can do from home or other offers and this day I received an email with the subject: DO NOT DEPOSIT ANOTHER DOLLAR AT YOUR BANK BEFORE YOU READ THIS
Then the email goes: CIA analyst, Jim Rickards, has made a shocking prediction: a cabal of 198 global elites is preparing to launch a direct financial attack on America...He urges all Americans to prepare NOW!
He's giving you his book The Road to Ruin for FREE! Just click here to claim your copy! Well the book was not really free, I had to put my credit card to pay for shipping and there was a whole LONG description of the value of the book and what this person says and also an attachment to a $99 investment newsletter that if you don't cancel in the first 30 days of getting the book, you get charged. I only found out this information after I was charged and they DO NOT REFUND YOUR MONEY.
In fact, the rude man from customer service that I talked to was so mean and evil that I started crying. I explained to him that it was all a misunderstanding and that I did not order those services. That I'm a single mom with no help and don't know anything about investing or the stock market and that I needed my $99 back that this was stealing, that I only paid for shipping of a book through different company (so I thought)...that I never even heard about Agora Financial. He was not having it, he was saying that I should have read everything that it said there when I paid that there was a $99 non-refundable if the 30 days would pass. He even compared that this was like signing to Verizon or HBO ...NO! A person knows signing for Verizon and HBO and doesn't end up on the Verizon website subscribing for a 1-year contract from buying one book!!!
THIS SHOULD BE ILEGAL!! THESE PEOPLE ARE TAKING ADVANTAGE OF A MISTAKE!! DONT MOST COMPANIES NOW OFFER REFUNDS FOR EVERYTHING?? WHY THESE PEOPLE DON'T?? It's BECAUSE THEY MAKE MONEY OF VULNERABLE PEOPLE WHO DON"T UNDERSTAND HOW CLICK BAITS WORK AND ALL THESE INTERNET TRICKS WORK.
I HOPE THERE's A CLASS ACTION SUIT AGAINST THESE GUYS BECAUSE THIS IS NOT RIGHT!
Agora Financial touted a certain Drexel Code in April 2016. That is an online trading robot in binary options. There was also Quantum Code and there are more. I signed up with Drexel Code, they got me with Omega Options and that one shut down on May 15, 2017. See separate report. Thanks a million. I was scammed. Not by Agora Financial directly, but by their buddies. And you can bet that the trading bots win. The next paragraph is not about a scam and has nothing to do with this one described above.
With regard to other things Agora Financial touts, there is Jim Rickards who has been "right all the time with predicting major events" (this may not be an exact quote, but the meaning of his sermons). Well, he repeats certain statements monthly and eventually, he accurately predicted this and that to happen. David Stockman the same. Now, do these events come to pass? Eventually yes. Did you then win from their advice? 50/50: You get in at the wrong time and out at the wrong time since "event" did not happen-->> then, no, you did not win. Agora Financial is at least culpable of letting informercial performers misrepresent that winning is a no-brainer; instead it's a 50/50 chance like all other bets.
