I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID [redacted] The business has finally sent a check. Unfortunately, his response was neither factual nor relevant. None of our email correspondences support his statements. For example:
-I never asked for a full refund for his services. I asked for half. He was unresponsive and failed to send two out of four letters to the court on my behalf (He can reread my email from July 13,2016)
-I have not made "as close to whole as possible"; he refunded 37% ($635 of the $1705 he charged)
-he did not IMMEDIATELY approve of the refund as he claims; it took him 4 months to reply to any communication from myself or the third party program
-he did not contact the program to initiate the return; as per their records, it
took 2 months and he only did so because he was contacted by the Revdex.comFor his edification, the company that took over for [redacted] was obligated to return any funds accumulated for the
purpose of paying off creditors. They did so in April, the same month I left the program with no issue. That is not considered a refund and he had no bearing on this action; neither did the legal system of California.Six months for a partial refund is not acceptably by any industry standard.
