Just had a very unpleasant encounter with these folks (SPAM!!!) and recommend you stay away from them as a high-risk, online pharmacy merchant account provider too. Not many nice people in this type of business. My synopsis below.
Apparently, a David Guest is owner of this company and that is who I had contact with. Mr. Guest contacted me regarding a merchant account for my business--I did not contact him first. I do not know how he got my information, but he sent me an email saying he could help me. So I filled out his paperwork and sent the information I had. I did not have a financial statement to give him and after finding out that it was a necessity, I told him I preferred not to continue with the process. I am not a big business, just a small one and have never incorporated so did not have assets and liabilities and other things like that which he said he needed.
Instead of letting it go, Mr Guest continued to send emails to me even after I asked him not to contact me again. He accused me of trying to run a scam on him. I just wanted him to leave me alone and said so. I decided to contact his company to make a formal complaint and that is when I found out he is the owner. The woman who answered the phone literally flew into a rage when I tried to say what I was complaining about and then hung up the phone on me. I called back only to have her do the same thing. This time I hung up on her.
Clearly this is not a company that cares about customer service at all--only about money, as Mr. Guest told me in one email. For a small business owner, who is only trying to make a living myself, I found this experience completely disheartening and discouraging. An honest and forthright company would have politely bowed out when I told them I could not comply with their information needs and not contacted me again. Not this one. In all my time online and in business, I have not encountered people such as these.
I also filed a complaint with the BBB in New York. There are many merchant account providers out there that are running a good business. Stay far away from David Guest and his TOO aggressive sales tactics.

Why do you think I am a spammer? My post about the above experience was very real. I posted it here because I thought it was okay. If I should have posted a new thread, you could have told me that instead of marking it spam. I speak my mind and if that makes you guys not like me and want to get rid of me as a spammer, I am sorry about that. I have just told it like it is and detailed my experiences to the best of my ability. I did have a call back from Instabill but because of this thread I did not call them back or apply with them. And I am glad that I did not. That is one company that needs to go. Simple PayClix is another and wanted to give my honest account of my experience with them. Let me know if I need to put them in another thread and I will be happy to do so.
Lighten up, people. Just trying to give you the benefit of my experience too.
Please make a new thread for such posts since it isn't related to ECS, would be nice to keep this one clean, thank you.

Note to Administrators:
The libel and slander denoted above are from a Jody El Assadi who was trying to setup an illegal pharmacy merchant account and she was trying to have deposits put into her personal bank account. We can only guess why. This is why I did not help this person establish an account, totally because we only operate under legal circumstances. This libel and slander will not be tolerated any longer, and since we are a respectable business enterprise, we find no alternative than to follow the proper legal channels with this delinquent person.
The main point here is that my company is not associated with Instabill and therefore I request that you remove this entry and the above entry which mentions my company, from this forum. Please email me if you have any questions.
Thank you.
okay hi
my names riaz this and my company name is originalkickz. I sell replica shoes online and was thinking of joining InstaBill but seems like there are more unhappy merchants here then happy ones. First of all, WHY IN THE HELL DO THEY HAVE AN A+ RATING ON BBB WHEN ALL I HEAR ARE PEOPLE GETTING SCAMMED LEFT AND RIGHT? SECOND IS IT POSSIBLE THAT MOST OF THESE PEOPLE COMPLAINING ARE COULD BE INSTABILLS COMPETITORS SO THERE TRYING TO INTERNET BLACKMAIL THEM TO AVOID GETTING NEW CUSTOMERS??? I NEED TO TALK TO ANYONE THAT DID GET SCAM ON THE PHONE, PLEASE. I HAVE MY OWN WEBSITE AND AM DECIDING ON JOINING THEM BUT WHOEVER DID GET RIPPED OFF, I NEED YOUR PHONE # SO I CAN CONTACT YOU AND FIND OUT WHY? I TALKED TO KATE THE LADY THAT IS ASSISTING MY ON INSTABILL, SHE SAID ONE MERCHANT WAS SELLING ILLEGAL DRUGS SO THE BANK HELD HIS MONEY, THE OTHER ONE WAS NOT DELIVERING PRODUCTS TO HIS CUSTOMERS. SO ANYONE OF YOU WHO HAS BEEN RECENTLY SCAMMED COME FORWARD AND LET ME KNOW, I WANT TO GET MYSELF INFORMED BETTER. THANK YOU AGAIN FOR ALL YOUR HELP GUYS
