I have received this call 3 times. They state my husband has been approved for a $7500.00 credit line. I am on the Do Not Call Registry and I reported them twice now.

Please read what I wrote in another thread...
| Mikey wrote: | The company that is calling everyone is called CreditPlus Rewards. They offer an online credit card that is allowed to make merchant purchases online. Most of these cards require a bank account, as they will deduct your purchases automatically.
Their address is:
505 E. Windmill Lane #1B-201
Las Vegas, NV 89123
Toll-free 800# is 800-975-5642
They also mention of a credit card (MasterCard) when you return the phone call on your caller ID 702-835-8602.
You can view their website for more information at creditplusrewards.com, as the BBB site has just started a new file on this company.

Mike

I also got this call twice last week. When I tried to call back, I got a recording and then if you try to leave a message is states the mailbox cannot take messages at this time. I agree they are anoying and want them to remove me from their call list. I am also on a Do Not Call list.
Thanks for the information Mikey.

Most of these lending companies will make inquiries in your credit report without any legitimate purpose. Inquiries lower the credit scores. Thus, it becomes very necessary to safeguard your ratings by stopping these offers from flowing towards you.
Call 1-888-5-OPTOUT (1-888-567-8688) and place your request to remove your name from the direct marketing lists. You can also contact the individual credit bureaus for opting out from the pre approved credit card offers. This effort will be helpful because it will remove the temptation to get further in debt

Anytime you get an auto-genterated call like this, or even a telemarketing call, chances are the system is on a dialer. If you say hello more than once, the system will automatically assume that they've reached an answering machine, and will hang up. There is usually a 2-3 second delay of pickup (on their end) from when you first say hello.
If you are not wanting to receive any type of telemarketing call you, you may sign up on the government registry at donotcall.gov

I got a call from this co. stating that I was approved for a $7500 credit line, a payday loan for $500.00, and an unsecured mastercard. The salesman claimed all of this was at o% interest for life. All I had to do was pay an initial fee of $129. I asked for the web site and phone #, which he gave me, so I could check out the co.. I could not believe this was a legitimate co. I have been unable to access the web site. "If it sounds to good to be true than it probably is". Accourding to the BBB, this co. may not even have a business license.

Tracy,
Don't get tempted towards these credit offers. Without knowing the background of the company, financial transaction is perhaps risky. You might get the first hit when your $129 will go into waste.
Some companies are very difficult to be tracked down later. Credit business is rising with a number of companies that come online. Be very careful before you make any decision that can turn risky.

CREDITPLUSREWARDS IS TERRIBLE!
I initially agreed to the terms, but changed my mind later. It had been almost 2 weeks before I was able to contact them. I had stayed on hold for over 30 minutes at times waiting to talk to a rep. I also sent them email. Today was the first time I was able to speak with someone and she tried to tell me that they didn't have bad customer service. I cancelled my account with them and won't fall for this trick any more! BEWARE!

Well, I was hurting for money. I called and got on of those cash til payday loans yesterday. I signed up from my work telephone. Today, i got three calls from credit plus. So thats how they got my info. I am on the do not call list, but im sure when i accepted that short term loan i signed up for some "YES, PLEASE SEND ME SPECIAL OFFERS" and "BUG THE CRAP OUT OF ME EVERYDAY" list.

jamajo, you can reject all the special offers by calling the company's helpdesk and get your name removed. These offers will also tempt you to increase your debt load and make you fully dependent on such loans.

I receive calls from 702-835-8602. Now they are calling my job and home. Today (2/7/06) a woman wanted me to verify my information over the phone - I ask what this was for and told her it sounded like a script she was reading. She said "it's not a script stupid" and hung up. What can we do to stop this?
