International Monetary Systems Reviews

  • May 13, 2020

I do not normally post reviews but feel I have to in this case. I joined IMS Milwaukee over 12 years ago. If you have a product that is of high demand, your account balance will rise quickly. However, finding a product or service on which to use your account funds is a HUGE challenge. Searching for something to "purchase" is like going to a yard sale where someone cleaned out the local dump. If you do find something of interest it is often overpriced compared to what you could pay for it at regular retailers.

Meanwhile, paying fees to IMS at $24/month x 12 years I spent more on fees while trying to find something reasonable to purchase than I had as my entire account balance. My choices are either spend through my balance on things I do not want or need or continue to pay fees. BTW, you'll also need to pay fees when you "buy" an item.

Greatly regret joining!!

I have been with this company for a couple years trying to make it work out hit the bottom line is its a rip off. You pay fees to get the barter. You pay monthly fees to keep the account going. You pay fees to spend the barter if you can find a way.

I have been trying to spend what i have for years on things i need but eveytime its sold out and not available. You get and email and 1 hour later its gone time after time. One time I bought $1200 in hotel vouchers that got lost in transit and they did nothing.

They are making millions off of fees and providing a terrible product. Dont waste your time.

I joined IMS Barter for $200, did a $4,000 paint job for another IMS Barter member named Rodney Morgan. Rod Morgan did not pay and IMS Barter refused to help me collect claiming they don't have a system in place for that. Essentially, IMS is part of the fraud. When I complained about this they cancelled my account.

IMS is not a good company, don't bother joining their trade organization, it's dangerous.

They had a Representative call our company and specifically make it sound like they needed our services as a potential customer. They refused to speak to my company's representative and insisted on speaking with me (the owner of the company) because it was an "important job". My representative took the number down and gave it to me. I googled the number to see who it could possibly be and found nothing. That number is: 716-313-2024. I decided to look at my company's call records because this sounded fishy to me. I noticed that the number the call came from was different. It was from: 262-780-3640 . A company called International Monetary Systems. Their website is: www.IMSBARTER.com .

I realized that it was a company trying to sell me something instead of ordering services from me. I was annoyed that they would purposely try to deceive my Representatives, make me as the Boss drop everything else I had to do within the company to try and tell me their services under false pretenses.

I decided to call the Rep for IMS back and tell her that I was very disappointed and that I would never do business with a company that would try to deceive me from the get go. She admitted that she was from international monetary systems because I cornered her and I asked to speak to her Manager to let the manager know about his representative's deceptive and dishonest sales practices.

After I explained to the manager what she had done, the manager's answer was " and what's wrong with that?", at that Point I realized that deceptive sales practices were actually encouraged in this company. I confronted the manager about it and told them that I would never do business with them because now I realize that the dishonesty came from the top.

I told him to remove my number from his list and that if he ever called again there would be legal repercussions. Rather than apologize and explain, the manager of IMS became more aggressive. I hung up before he could finish speaking because I had had enough. I own a service business and I would never EVERdeceive my Customers to make a quick sale. Much less pull the fire alarm to get their attention just to pitch my offer. People have busy lives and work hard. Nobody deserves to be sidetracked falsely to be lured out of their money.

Never trust a company that has misleading tactics and that doesn't appreciate your time or insults your intelligence as a person.
