Global Verge Shut Off By Their Wireless Provider Activation King Wireless Because Of Money Owed
Global Verge shut off by their wireless provider Activation King Wireless because of thousands of unpaid activations and tens of thousands of dollars owed.
If you have watched the video you know I am livid at what is taking place at Global Verge aka Global Mobile 1. For months we have covered this company and at times given them room to correct their issues. However to date the only ones who have become financially independent is the owners Ted Robbins and Mark petschel who have sent millions to offshore bank accounts.
Here is the information we have received over the last few weeks.
1. Global Verge Gateway (Merchant Account) has held funds
2. Activation King has ceased all business dealings
3. Reps/Customers can’t renew their prepaid phones
This is not new info, this is the same crap we have heard over and over. Yet each time Global Verge wants to SPIN the story, and the top paid distributors (Triple Diamonds) keep raping the downline for all the money they can get before this company goes south.
I have, at the request of top distributors backed off a little to give the company room. Well not any longer! We are going to push this issue until one of three things happen.
1. The company is sold to folks who know how to run it.
2. The top distributors buy the company and hires a top rated MLM Team to run it.
3. Some regulatory takes control of the company.
This is 100% wrong, and the Triple Diamonds who are part of this shell game will be held responsible for their greedy, unethical actions to the unknowing distributors who are following their leadership.
Here is a little off of Chris Greco’s site today…
For more information on how to get your phone turned on, or renewed contact Unlimited Wizard.

I posted the status of GV in a Global Verge group on Facebook and I had a rep come back and was literally ready to shoot me for posting what I "found" from credible sources.. She denied it and said this
"Activationking is NOT our wireless partner and they were not on the corporate phone calls, Raymond with All Wireless was. Look at the local dealer list on our website, the main address for their main store is All Wireless. Activation King is who is spreading these lies and and they are now trying to fraud people. A la…w suit has already begun.
So wake up and stop believing all the B.S. you read on the internet and start believing in your company. It is the competition that is creating this crap. Fight back…"
Geez wake up lady
Nick,
Welcome to the world of craziness. She can deny all she wants, but when you listen to the archived recordings of GV they make it clear they had teamed up with Chris Greco, AKW and were going to blow the world apart.
I just can't fathom anyone in their right mind would publish what Chris has published if it was not true. that would truly take this saga to a whole new level.
Intense hah.. I truly feel bad for the reps and when you try and bring them news.. they rip your head off.
Troy is one of my closest and dearest friends in this entire industry, and he proves it regularly by RIPPING ME A NEW HIND END when I am out of line! That is a true friend.
And he HAS allowed friendships to cloud his vision at times. He actually DID back off on GV due to friendships…he didn't research XELR8 as deeply as he should have, again out of friendships.
And what did he do afterward?
He acknowledged and apologized and promised to do better in the future.
That is class. That is integrity. That is honor. That is a friend to the industry.
And the only financial benefit Troy is going to get for all his help he has given me is the biggest juicy steak in Destin the next time I am there!
Hmmmmmmm…I guess he MIGHT have an ulterior motive
Just wanted to also validate that my site is up as well http://www.endzonemobile.com
I am truly excited troy I am already selling Product, I really cant believe how fast and easy this was, and chris set me up for FREE, I paid nothing for this, and I am making money 31.00 today so far, so i cancelled my autoship with GV today, and I advise everyone else to do the same, I am also added to the matrix for chris if he does the mlm, I would tell people to do that cause it costs nothing to get in on it, if he does it and look guys he has a product if we all pursue it this way with chris we can have a solid MLM that has a real wireless Product, Just send chris an email, tell him you want it, he told me he is waiting to talk to some attorney, I just dont see the down side, a real product I am already makin money, well screw GV and thank you Unlimited Wizard for the opportunity
Um, you're excited about working with a company that takes Pay Pal as their form of payment? Yikes! Best of luck to you.
Concerned MLMer,
Hey, I take paypal, and even added Google Shopping Cart this year
I use paypal and a merchant account, I use paypal on the sites for the associate that owns the site protection against fraud, and not getting paid, transfers are instant because we have a pro merchant account, and there is no fees because my company eats that cost, so can you tell me a downside?
When a company like Global Verge uses Pay Pal as a form of a payment whether is a product or getting distributors in, you know it is a bad sign that the company is on it's last legs.
David Gibson,
You do make a good point. I know more and more companies are using PayPal and Google Shopping Cart as alternative payment methods these days, but you do not see it as a primary payment methods 99% of the time.
Troy,
There is a BIG difference between an individual using Pay Pal to take/make payments online and a legit company using it as their order taking system. What sort of stable, long term company doesn't have the ability to set up online ordering for their reps??????
Concerned MLMer,
I hear you bro… These sure seems to be something burning in the background.
I'm an honest person, I went to see your web site the day it went up, but why is it down now? I'm really confused here?? Is it up or is it down now for some reason?? http://www.endzonemobile.com
I'm honestly sick of MLM, I just want to go direct Chris Greco. Thanks for giving me the opportunity to be a man in a honest Cell Phone business!! Please call me soon!
Troy I am soooo excited, I joined Unlimited Wizard yesterday my site is up and I am actually making money I cant Believe it, I just want to thank Chris for giving us the opportunity to sell wireless service, As I have been promised from Global Scam (Global Verge) since May, well I have made 82.00 today so far, And I cant believe I can take payments from all my friends cause they take all cell companies, troy you gotta see this, no one has done this. I am so excited and he didnt lie I got paid my commission Imeadiatley, I really cant believe someone finally backed up what they said and did it, It really is here, Thank you for reporting on the scam, I am askin for a full refund GV you scammed me, I am stay at home mom and you took food off my table, you promised phones at christmas NOPE, then you turned off service, YOU SUCK!!, I cant wait to see the A.G. kick in your DOORS! Thanks again troy for letting me vent and thank you chris for doing what you say.
Amanda Havner
Tampa, FL.
p.s. does mark pay the celebs like hookers? maybe thats where the money is
Hi Amanda, your post is hilarious! I am glad that after what you have been through, you still have a sense of humor
You are going to do well in this industry.
Just to follow up on what I had posted earlier concerning AKW and GV.
I tried to activate with Unlimited Wizard, but didn't get an email for about 2 hours later telling me I need to remove the ESN. But I did get a call from Chris helping me to get activated. He went thru the process and got me activated within minutes!!!
As I stated earlier, I am now a former e-associate and will now be working Chris' program! I don't know what GV's issue is with AKW, but I just got the best confirmation of who is real and who is scamming people. I've been with GV since May of last year and now I know that GLOBAL VERGE IS THE BIGGEST SCAM going on right now. I no longer believe anything they are saying and I don't understand how Jan or Ruth or Jim Helman can continue to push this scam unless they're in it to keep scamming people just so they can get paid their thousands from naive people like me and thousands of others.
If you want to talk to me and find out if I'm real or not, email me and I will tell you the truth of who the good guys are (Chris and AKW) and who the scammers are (Mark, Ted, and GV).
Roland – rggbiz@gmail.com
thank you roland for the kind word we at unlimited wizard and akw are just trying to provide what we say as for talking to a live person folks please contact us at 888-90-WIZARD with any questions, if you need assistance, if the lines are full leave a message and just like roland I or another customer service agent will contact you back, thanks, Oh and just so GV knows we are at 119 retail sites and growing every second, and yes people are actually selling service right now, How you guys doing I was told page plus shut you down, I dont hear the sarcasm in the calls now do I, its put up or shut up time GV, ive gone all in and I am producing, Global Verge 0 – Unlimited Wizard 119.
I spoke with Chris Greco, he is an outstanding individual, and he is commited to bring to market the very best service, NO MORE BULL FROM GLOBAL Thanks for your help Chris
Rob Turner
First of all, I'm a GV e-associate, but a damn pissed off one! I just want a company that can provide the service. I was led to believe that AKW was working with GV and providing the service. Now AKW is slamming GV when I thought AKW was doing all the activation?! I tried calling AKW and all I get is a recording and I can't even leave a message. Just like GV, all I get is a stupid looping response and can't even leave a message. And when I was able to leave a message at AKW, I have never gotten a call back.
So this Chris guy comes on here and starts bad mouthing GV when their customer service is just as bad!!!! I don't get it? I can't get a human voice at either business at any of the phone numbers. This is just frustrating as hell!
I just want a company that doesn't lie their ass off to get customers. I want a company that will do what they say they can do.
As for Troy, are you connected with FDI? Are you friends with the company heads? Because I don't see FDI being any better. They have a front loading structure ($500?), who wants to pony up that much to get wireless phone service when you can get service at other stores without the up front fee.
Just letting out frustration here.
Roland,
I want to personally thank you for coming by and sharing. I was talking to a close friend in network marketing today and he asked me what was up with GV, and I equated it to politics. I told him, there are some party members who just go with the flow of what they are fed, then there are some grass root distributors who are fed up with the crap, and are asking for a change, for the company to start listening to the needs of the field, or else a revolt is going to take place.
I'm glad to see a level head come by and share pure frustration, instead of just defending the undefendable.
Roland, I am friends with several company founders and/or officers. And I have voiced my frustration with each one of them. So far I have found one company who truly offers wireless VOIP and one company who has a branded cell service (two different companies) FDIVOICE is very close to the mandi service GV offers, so I am not sure how that will go, but it does work pretty good because I am testing it.
If you are serious about a wireless opportunity contact me offline and I will gladly give you three or four different companies to review and decide if they fit your business model or personal needs.
But, as I have said in the last and will say again, I am not getting paid or have a position with any company in MLM period. My only connection is with INVISUS Direct who has shut down their MLM arm.
My contact email is troydooly@mlmhelpdesk.com.
Troy, glad you shared this point. There are many that think you are involved with some of these companies and you are benefiting from it financially which is why you are sharing about what is going on with GV. I know and many know this in NOT true and you just want to see good people not get hurt.
Casper,
It truly amazes me, that when someone stands up to ask the tough questions everyone want to point fingers trying to find some hidden agenda. Yet, if you set back and don't say anything they get mad because we did not speak up.
I am proud to have made some great friendship with most of the founders and leaders of every wireless company in MLM, not all but most. And if you were to talk to each one of them, they would be the first to tell you I have sure asked them some hard questions, and question some of the moves they have made.
The difference is ALL of them have been willing to talk. They have explained what they are doing, changed what did not work, or are just ow launching.
Just wait until I write about the one company who has VOIP Wireless working (Been using the phone WITHOUT a sim chip for months) that will really open the eyes of some.
I think Jim Bartlett of Lightyear wrote it best here on the blog the other day… There is plenty of room for several companies if they are running their business right.
It is crazy… I even had a friend call the other night, and he had talked to a Triple Diamond had called him to inform him I only do this to get increase traffic to my site. I had to laugh at that one because if anyone knows anything about SEO and how the search engines work, they know that spikes in traffic HURT your rankings, they do not help!
A site needs consistent steady traffic. Then I asked him… What does traffic do for me anyway? I don't market anything of great value on my site. We review companies, and share info, and from our non MLM sites.
Casper, you are a good friend, you have been around me from the beginning of this saga, and I wantt to thank you for your continued friendship. I am just sorry you and thousands of others who bled GV for so many months did not get the payoff you deserved.
Living An Epic Adventure,
Troy
Troy I will have to agree with the spike in traffic. Controversy does do that. But I checked your Alexa stats. It has spiked, but is dropping again. Keep fanning those flames of controversy. Here is the link…
http://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/mlmhelpdesk.com?p=t...
Of course, in keeping with the theme of my prior comments, I am sharing opinions, not necessarily facts. We are all adults here. Draw your own conclusions with the information before you.
Increased traffic, increased subscribers, maybe a few more affiliate sales from the links on your blog, future sales down the road due to increase subscribers.
This blog is your business. If it was not generating revenue for you, you would most likely be working beside me in the library.
I have noticed a trend when looking at your Alexa stats. Global Verge appears to have been good for your traffic. You had a spike near the end of October when you endorsed it. You had another traffic spike in November when you pulled your endorsement. Your traffic in December was pretty flat. Now you have a new spike. So it is pretty easy to conclude that your goal was to increase traffic.
Now with that said, your post has also been good for my traffic. I just checked my stats. MLM Help Desk is one of the top five referring sites to my blog. Thanks for sharing the love.
Your unofficial conscience
Paul
Paul,
You have me laughing. the spikes are also about the same time we sent out newsletters. I have not sent a Newsletter since November.
It's never about traffic! I covered this in a blog post and on Facebook a few months ago, when a TVI rep tried to use the same old tactic. The video is still live at facebook and here.
But, I will out of respect address a little here.
Professional bloggers just like professional social marketers are not looking for traffic or friends. What we do want is very targeted organic traffic and friends.
If you or anyone takes time to study our community, you will very quickly see our largest footprint is reviewing MLM companies, providing training and doing reviewing on leaders in the MLM profession. These have brought us more subscribers than posts on Scam Alerts.
Our most viral videos are those which have to do with legit companies, not those we report on under the scam alerts.
If you look at Alexa or Compete, you will find two small but very important benchmarks for us. It is our upsteam and downstream from Facebook and the amount of sites linking in to our blog.
These are the same benchmarks the search engines look at to determine if we are producing valuable content.
We fully understand when we post on a Scam Alert we take a risk on hurting our own SEO rankings with the search engines and do it anyway. Search engines count spikes in traffic against the site because they know it is not from normal content.
With any of our blogs, micro-blogs or profiles it is all about generating very specific targeted subscribers. We want to build a very tight community of people who come back often, not just when we do a scam alert update.
If you hang around long enough, and meet some of the people I am very close with and have served over the last 20 plus years, and you ask them about me, you will soon start to see a pattern.
But, it is always great to have an unofficial conscience
I am truly glad you are part of this community.
Living An Epic Adventure,
Troy
Your a loser for promoting your business on this posting. Cut the crap!
I am so sad for all the folks that put their hopes and trust in the leaders, both in the company and field. I was one of them for awhile and I know how good they are at making you believe everything is going to be ok. We were always pushed ahead by the "What If's" and that can be very powerful when you have big dreams. What is also sad for me is that we brought friends into this mess and they are still hopeful and staying because of what they have been told by the very talented leaders that have many years experience at "saying what you want to hear".
I really can't believe some of the things I am reading here and I don't understand why someone would even consider this at all after doing any homework. Integrity should far outweigh $$$.
I have long since left and want to thank you, Troy, for giving me the strength and posts to let me decide for myself by doing my own due diligence.
I can only hope for those that can't make that cut, to have the authorities do what needs to be done.
I just got this from a person who is drinking the koolaid. Let me ask Mark is just now speaking with T-mobile?? What took so long?? Had to pay off the escort service first?? (""But I live in Florida and Mark Petchel was in Tampa yesterday meeting with T-Mobile and getting business done.
While he was here, he also met with some of our more famous celebrities that are reps. Hulk Hogan for one, and abaseball player that I just can't think of his name. Now, I do wish GV would share more info with the general population, but I think you will all start to see some good news here very shortly. Patience is a virtue.
We have live meetings several times a week in Florida if any of you are interested. Check Team GG calendar for more info.
I am off to go build my business.
I suggest you go do the same."")
gomobile,
This is funny… I am truly amazed at what folks do and say. Let's look at the Hulk Hogan statement for a second. How many companies have we seen over the years who have had celebrities as distributors, endorsers or investors, that when the end came, it did not matter? A company who is running unethically is still unethical, even if the President of the USA is a member.
Thank you for sharing this little piece if info.
Soooo disappointed! I'm a GV e-associate that told several friends who joined as well. My friend purchased a phone 11/27/09 and was charged approximately $250 on her credit card. To date she has never received her phone (1/23/10). Numerous support tickets, phone calls that go to corporate offices which are voice recordings………..never a real live person NEVER NEVER NEVER. Triple Diamond JAN JOHNSON (Boulder Colorado) who got me into this company said was contacted in an effort to help replied that she doesn't know how she could help us. She continues do weekly calls promoting the GV opportunity. Here's her website that she posts all recorded calls:
http://www.attainingexcellence.com/
Also here's a email address that you should send emails too. Use your judgement, but ask her why she continues to promote a company that can' t deliver and how much $$$ she makes monthly from GV:
johnson.jan@comcast.net
Maybe Jan could do the right thing and write a check to your friend, since the company doesn't seem to be able to.
troy you ting unlimited wizard is a god oportunity victor orea 619-778-9219 vjcomunications@yahoo.com saludos from san diego a ting you do good work on investigacion thank you
Victor Orea,
I do not know anything about Unlimited Wizard, except what has been written here, and the fact Chris Greco truly seems to be trying to help the GV distributors get a business up and running.
Ted, why did you guys do this to all of us here at GV?? We trusted you so so very much! Now what are you guys going to do with all our money we paid you?? Who is going to trust you now in this business? I am a poor person Ted, I was giving you my monthly food money hoping that some day I could be making at least $1,500.00 per month, but look at me now, I have nothing because of you guys!!
Wow hearing stories like that makes my heart bleed.
Eric,
It is rough, but what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. I was on the phone not to long ago with David Manning, and we talked about this very subject.
Thank goodness there are some good companies where people can find a good home if they are looking for a company with leadership, products and services.
Thanks for coming by my friend.
I was a GV member over a year ago and thank God I left when I did. I can't believe they are still pulling the same sly crap. Anyway, I have moved on from the Telecomm industry. I have seen them all and none of them are good. I flew to several companies and have found my new home. I'm hoping Troy can shed some light on ASEA. Get details here if you are looking for a long term home and income…http://lookatthat.info
More GV BS for those that are hanging onto HOPE!
Yeah, Unbelievable JUST UNBELIEVABLE….. Got off the phone with Activation King & he really gave me some info…. The guy named Randy that was on the GV conf call yesterday trying to make us believe that his company is Activation King, although is wasn't said exactly… but sure made you think that is the case and that everything is OK…. activating phones as we speak. This guy has been arrested 8 times for cocaine possession and is an e-associate. No doubt in on the scam. $37 million been taken in the last few months…. where did it go??? To an off shore bank account. We know $150,000 went to Vegas…
troy I would like to direct everyone to activationkingwireless.com where proof of the scam is posted! such as those great activations yesterday, yeah through page plus and all at 79.99 when it costs only 39.99 what a crock of crap, so go look under released documents link, and we will continue to post more records as they continue to LIE to you in the field. I can say with assurance that our attorney is talking to the authorities concerning the merchant account info and will be in their hands before the end of business today.
Chris, where on the site is the stuff you are talking about? I can't find anything.
go to http://www.activationkingwireless.com and click
activation records for gv
that should show you what you need
Hmmm, interesting. Chris I just read your scam exposed page. Had it been my name on those tickets, I would be taking legal action against you for violating my privacy. Full names, email addresses and phone numbers, what were you thinking?
It is very obvious to me that you have completely disregarded and violated any non-disclosure and confidentiality agreements that were between you and Global Verge. Your actions crossed the line. Any credibility you may have had with me is shot.
Looking forward to it Troy!
Chris is the one who made me able to activate and sell phones. I am still open and running today. I am on the AK web sight. I am the Ormond Beach/Holly Hill Store. One of the reps from cv was here my opening night. I have activated phones for gv e reps to help people out too. Chris is the real deal! If you want come check out my store or call me any time! COMPLETE SOLUTIONS LLC 1700 ridgewood ave holly hill fl unit c 32117 386-523-6335 or email completesolutions@live.com I have lots of info on Raymond and chris and i am hear to tell you SS would love to know raymond had a job since he is disabled and his jax store is in his sisters name so he dosent get cought and we wont bring up his criminal record and for the his family saftey i wont tell you more!
I own a store in Holly Hill Fl and Have been under Chris and Raymond from before GV. Raymond made promisses he never keep as i have boost in my store I cant sell. He told me get a store and i will set you up. He and chris were her for bike week and worked out of a trailer. I lost my shirt that week. I then got my store I have today. raymond left me hanging he never answer my calls or set my up. I feel so bad for janis at his store!!!!!!
OK,
Casper has brought up a great point on all the good hearted, over zealous distributors who are using this post for personal propaganda.
Instead of allowing this to continue, I'm going to delete the majority of the posts. If we see a post with solid value, it will stay, others will disappear.
Casper good catch.
Living An Epic Adventure,
Troy
Thanks Troy. It goes without saying that most of us posting on this topic are probably soldiers in what you call the "Wireless Wars", but that said, this thread is not for our own personal recruiting agenda. This thread is about you gathering the facts on one specific company, Global Verge, and posting those facts, with our help if we have quality information to share about Global Verge specifically.
I applaud you Troy!
This is not a blog posting to promote another business!!
Kool Aide Connoisseurs…please stop ripping people off and get a cup of coffee…Global Verge is a Scam
Hey Troy,
It is sad to to see so many people taking advantage of by this Global Verge Debacle. This gives the entire Industry a bad name.
All I can say is FDI VOICE is a Complete Telecom & Financial Company that PAYS!!! We offer MOBILE, HANDS-FREE TEXTING, VOIP Plus Allot More… We actually help Saves Lives with our Telecom. The Crusade continues http://www.ILOVEFDI.com 1-888-334-8477
FDI, this is not a blog posting to promote another business!!
FDI, your a loser for promoting your business on here.
I have a little information for you global verge and RAYMOND KNIGHT just so the field knows do you think mark petschel has a record raymond takes the cake, Please look at duval county district court State of Florida vs. Raymond Knight. Posession with intent to sell Cocaine, WOW and after doing further research he is on supervised release!! for the Federal Government for marriage fraud, ASK HIM ABOUT THAT, wow does global verge know this WOW. He divorced his wife to allow her to marry a arab from syria, and in 2008 The F.B.I. kicked in the door to his store and as well as found the drugs that was turned over to the state, so look it up and see for yourself
Eric Fraizer,
I would love to see the official documentation if you can send it offline.
if you google it thats how i found it i looked him up under all wireless, which he says is his company but come to find out that its not even in raymonds name!!! its in a terry campbell, further after some research using intellius raymond is on social security disability, Wow I bet social security would love!!! to know that,, wow this guy keeps getting better, if you can find it let me know and I will get it sent to you.
Wow Mobile. Why they heck are you promoting another opportunity on here. This is BS to do this. This posting is about GV not about joining another business. Cut the crap by doing this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nice Spam WowMobile!
Go build your team and stop trolling around.
Seriously Troy, have to do something about the Spam buddy!
Troy, we bacame sick of all the bizarre hype ("we are so excited" repeated 20 times during a call, "we are working so hard" etc. but ZERO hard information. But like fools we kept forking over the $40/month for nothing…until we, and everyone else, got stiffed on the so-called "training" they promised for a certain date. That date came and went…no training, no e-mailed reason why, no nothing! Sent in several support tickets asking why there was no promised training and no notification. Finally a week later "service" e-mailed back and said thet "notification was posted that the training was cancelled". Well, that "notice was posted a number of days AFTER the scheduled "training date. These people are the pits who make money on the old adage, "a sucker is born every minute". We have all been suckered!
Zeke Hanzl,
Thank you for coming by. Bro your not a foll, nor are the good hearted, emotionally charged folks who have written over the last 12 hours on the blog. We're all in the same boat, looking for something we can grab on which will give us the financial breathing room we need to get over the hump and on down the road to financial freedom.
There are some great companies in MLM, especailly in the MLM Wireless arena, you hand in there and keep looking. If you have questions reach out, we'll do our best to find the right answers.
Troy this is chris greco, let me say this, there was a reason the training was cancelled, once I showed mark and ted how easy this business really is, I was told we gotta cancel the training these goofs will just try to go out and do this on their own, LOL. So thats a fact they canceled training to keep you the e associate in the dark, would you like to see the emails I have got from them folks, or wait that would be a lie too.. Look WAKE UP!! It has been CONFIRMED today that Mark Petschel is using a PAGE PLUS code to do activations now, that means you are paying 79.99 for a 39.99 plan its Illegal and he is screwing you right in front of your face!!
I have no choice but to bring my documents to the attoerney general and have GV shut down, I tried to let them do this amicably, but it is obvious they will continue to screw the distributors and people who have no idea that GV is a scam. Look do what you want but I think that ill release docs and then well see what you have to say in defense of GV what then, When the AG kicks in the door what will you call that a minor set back come on wake up people quit getting burned!!!
Chris,
I believe people need to realize you are not hiding behind some fact persona, but are addressing the Global Verge comments and propaganda head on.
I commend you for taking a direct approach to this situation.
Thank you troy I am doing just that and will continue to do so, and I sincerely hope that the distributors wake up to the scam, Raymond Knight who was on the call is just an e associate from jacksonville with one boost mobile store. Thats it, he has no interest or relationship to MobilePro Activation King or Unlimited Wizard. Oh Did I mention the fact that he has NINE CONVICTIONS FOR POSSESION OF COCAINE, yeah I bet they didnt tell the field that either.
Zeke. What the heck are you talking about?? The training has been up on GVUniversity just days after they made the announcement!! If you were staying plugged in, you would know that
Excited,
that's not true.. it took a couple of weeks the gvuniversity to be set up. And it was a real worthless test to be honest.
Troy & Chris,
I stayed around because $40 per mo is no big deal lose it or not. The potential for something was greater and since that doesn't look to be the case anymore I'm leaving and my 150 ppl who I have already personally recommended each cancel their autoship (back in sept) we will go find real companies to do real business with. I am thinking FDIvoice what do u all know about that?
Jay,
FDI has had their own issues, although it was more of two companies who had different business models.
I am testing their current service and it is not much different that Global Verges Mandi service. I do think FDI is focusing on this service heard and showing how it can save lives. But, telecommunication is new for FDI so there will be some issues.
troy I would like to direct everyone to activationkingwireless.com where proof of the scam is posted! such as those great activations yesterday, yeah through page plus and all at 79.99 when it costs only 39.99 what a crock of crap, so go look under released documents link, and we will continue to post more records as they continue to LIE to you in the field. I can say with assurance that our attorney is talking to the authorities concerning the merchant account info and will be in their hands before the end of business today.
Chris,
Its time to nail these crooks,thanks for bringing this out I have been checking these guys out since sept.09.they have quite a history of rip and run,the offshore situation is real slick ……….
Dean
When will you people wake up! Zer01, FDI, Global Verge, Global Mobile, TeleVerus and VoIParty the list goes on and on. THEY HAVE ALL FAILED MISERABLY. See the common denominator here. HELLO Nobody has brought a viable product to market that you cannot readily access at your local telecom store. If you stayed in and continued to pay your auto ship ask yourself this question knowing what you know now would you join. Answer heck no. So why did you stay. I'll tell you why because you sacrificed your morals and ethics because of GREED and I would assume this Chris Greco fella knew about their indiscretion but proceeded anyway. Is this guy going to be any better I doubt it. Guilty by association. Get out of Telecom people it's to volatile. amorbitzer@wowway.com theres a better way!!!
It never cease to amaze me that most of the time when somebody bash another telecom company they do so to promote their own. The nerve of some people.
@_emay,
I think you are talking to others, because I do not represent any MLM company period. And, this is not about bashing a company, this is about sharing facts so folks can make an informed decision.
The bloggers are full of lies.
Amazing what people will believe. Do you not see how the competition is playing you all. There are so many companies that are afraid of what we Globalverge is doing that they are trying their best to make us look bad. Truth is that everything is good. Listen the the corp. call for yourself. Truth rules out and I believe in Globalverge 100%.

Eclipse,
Thank you for sharing your intelligence. I fought long and hard so you would have this right, and I am glad you are using it.
There are laws on the books when it comes to publicly writing information. Have you ever wondered why Global Verge and the Owners have never filed lawsuits against the magazines, bloggers, and others who have written about the company? Maybe it is because we provide facts.
Have you ever wondered why every outside partner who has promoised to, or who have provided wireless have split from Global Verge?
Have you taken the time to review ALL the links to the court documents, public records, and other documentation on Global Verge and their history?
Let me explain something to you… You are the same person, who if we did not write about Global Verge, would come back and gripe when they go out of business or cut the compensation and start another company as they have four the last four or five year.
You are the person who can't admit they did not do their homework and may have made a mistake.
If we did not report facts, then the ownership of the blog would be hidden and I would be going by the name ECLIPSE.
Please continue to drink the propaganda from the company.
One last thought… Did you ever wonder, why the company would decide to talk about this and send emails about this specific blog? Maybe, just maybe they understand that we do report facts, and that major investigative reporters come here, the SEC, FTC, IRS, and several state AGs are subscribers and read what we write.
Do you really think these agencies and people would read and report what we write, if it were just pulled out of our hats?
Eclipse,
I was a triple diamond and got screwed by the company not only by not delivering what they said they would, but also knowingly allow people to cross recruit and not follow policies and procedures. Your just drinking the cool-aid. Won't it feel so great that when they do get shut down you will have egg all over your face and you will lose credibility. Just face the simple facts, this has turned to be a sham with everyone they do. I have lost track with all the excuses and everything that went wrong since I joined the company last May.
I purchased two phones from globalmobile1 on November 27, 2010, I am still waiting for
my shipment. Please explain the problem in terms every one can understand.
Hey Troy,
Thanks for the update about Global Verge. I have a friend of mine, he was ready to call me name just because i told him 3 months ago that GV is not going to stay for so long. I hope that everyone learned a lesson Today. I just wanted to say this. I know some of you are very excited about the failures of GV. Honestly, there's nothing wrong with that, but in the other hand you have to be careful….
Making money online it's not about joining the greatest, the sickest, the hottest business opportunity. Remember, you are the most important asset in your primary business. If you are not acquiring values for yourself, people are not going to trust you or even do business with you.
Don't worry about people say "No" to your business, you should be worried the fact that they say "Yes" to someone else. It means that for some reasons you need to work harder on yourself instead of your business. I always tell my people that network marketing is a learning process, and we need to educate ourselves every single day….
I like to give away my great secrets. But, sometimes i can be careless. Here's the deal. Whoever could figure out the secret of how to build a community of buyers loyal to an internet business, would rule the Internet…..Period!!!!
LOL – this was from a Triple Diamond in GV who was on the GLOBAL DISASTER call tonight – apparently Troy you are a liar and Mark Petschel, the boy scout that he is, is 100% truthful. You better pack your bags Troy their coming for yah!!!!!!!!!!!!
Quote from GV T.D.:
You should know better by now about the bloggers and Global Verge. From the owners mouth tonight was laughter and total denial of any claims that there is a rift with Global Verge and the fact that they owe him any money.
The company now has thousands of phones activated and the VoIP products are fantastic.
Could be that Troy has a personal reason to attack Global Verge…Before you pass this stuff around, you might want to confirm it because you are with a competitor and certainly have motive to be negative.
Death to GV,
ROFLOL… Ok, I have climbed back up in my chair. This story is not new, as we both know. But since the old reps from the Summer have left. Those who did stay must have been sworn to secrecy, and have brought in a new group of good hearted, hungry entrepreneur folks who in their excitement did not learn about the past. How many partners have left this company? Take a look over the last three or four years folks.
Another thing I bet none of these distributors have done, is read the Policies and Procedures… If they read them they will learn Global Verge can cut the compensation plan anytime they see fit. I wonder if the original field leaders signed the same agreements?
Hi Troy,
You shall now and forever more be dubbed – Troy "Braveheart" Dooley. Nail these Bastards and let's put these scammers behind bars. To all that are still drinking the GV Kool – Aide – double your dose and get it over with as we want to finish this mass burial soon – we have REAL business's to build!
Check out the email – "GV is an MVNO" – what a bunch of crooks this pair is.
(FYI – same guy who feed you all those juicy docs months ago)
Email sent out by GV on Dec 21, 2009
5. Global Mobile1 Service – We are an MVNO (Mobile Virtual Network Operator). This means that we provide mobile phone service directly through the carriers. The data for our customers is housed on a server. This is the same server that other carriers use.
I am addressing this detail because there have been well meaning, yet misinformed e-Associates, that for some reason have tried to track down our detail and have been contacting the server administrators. These server administrators can see any carrier?s data. However, the only way to determine which MVNO a specific customer has gone through is to know the specific MVNO code. The customer service agents at the server location do not have access to these codes. Therefore, when the server administrator looks at the information they will not be able to discern which carrier the data is from, but just that the data is on the server. So, based on partial information, these researching e-Associates are making assumptions about where their service originated or who activated their service. Unfortunately the assumptions they are making are wrong assumptions based on partial information that is disseminated by seemingly helpful customer service reps from the server location.
I cannot stress enough the value that our vendor relationships bring to us. Our vendors cannot handle a barrage of calls from e-Associates. Therefore, it is of utmost importance that any questions regarding your service come directly to Global Verge or Global Mobile1 so that you can get accurate and valid information.
7. International Global Mobile1 – We are in the process of reviewing final agreements for mobile in Canada. Once this has been done we will set up replicated sites for our Canadian e-Associates to sell the Global Mobile1 service. We are very close. Australia is our next mobile focus point and we are in the process of developing agreements there.
We have been concentrating on getting all the bugs worked out in the US so that we can feel confident in our international roll out.
As always thank you for your patience and understanding as we move through these very exciting times.
Sincerely,
Ted Robbins, President
Global Verge
Death to GV,
You have been a voice in this nightmare who has provided the technical details and I want to thank you for always sharing (with passion) the facts behind all the techie talk.
This is the information the distributors need, and it will provide evidence in the future, that distributor's who stayed and recruited unknowning, good hearted people who were looking for some financial freedom, were lead to the gallows by people who were only in it for the money, not to change lives, or for a long term career change.
Even Global Verge leaders wrote this last week, they were just now putting a strategy together for 2010 and forming a five year business plan? What "Future billion dollar" business doesn't launch with a five year plan? Sounds like a bank or merchant wanted some plans in writing before opening more credit.
hi ted
if you are activating phones why do i have your people calling me to do it? I have nothing to do with this hole mess, but i am loving your mistake! I have acitvated several of your people just to help them out. you are charging alot of money for your plans! I wont get a plug in on here about how much but people need to just dial 611 and ask an know you are paying toooo much!!!! Raymond is a convict and a fraud being watched by fbi watch your back and check your facts!!!!
I just went to Unlimited Wizard and they are building my site as we speak I am so excited.
I will finally be able to sell what I was promised, for over a year and I can sell everything not just one product. we will see but Wizard put up, while Global Verge has Shut up.
Do you really think Chris was going to admit he was fired??? Fired for conspiring in the background and stealing information to do his own thing. What kind of a person has to put other companies down to make himself look like a Hero. For your information, I happen to be selling Business to business systems, saving people on thier electricity and saving them alot of money on things they already buy. The $40/mo becomes nothing when you add it ALL up and we have alot more than just cell phones. There's 3 sides o every story. Yours, Mine and the Truth. Why don't you ask his partner why he severed ties with Chris???????? Maybe because he didn't want to be associated with someone like him!!! Get the WHOLE story.
Excited,
Since you did not address this to me personally I guess you may be talking to others. However, I did talk with the MNVO team at Verizon today, and missed the call back from T-Mobile. But from what I did learn from Verizon prompted us to go ahead and post.
The whole story will come out in a court of law, and not before. There are so many current and past players in this mess, and everyone is scrambling to cover their butts right now. It will be interesting just how fast Jay Nixon the AG of Missouri decides to get involved in a larger way than they have already.
Just so everyone knows, since mark is saying he has an MVNO, (laughable) because you cannot have anyone in your structure that has a record period, so how did they pull that off, They used our MVNO agreement with verizon, you can look me up MobilePro, at http://www.mvnolist.com ok, if mark is an MVNO where is he? My company changed its name from MobilePro to Unlimited Wizard on December 13th due to our Sub agreement with boost to offer an IDEN product, and to put it out there because to be honest GLOBAL VERGE has not done the best for ACTIVATION KING WIRELESS Name. But Please look it up for yourself and see the lie they are telling you,
Chris Greco
this is chris greco believe what you want but i have the emails and the documents from the authorize.net merchant account and unfourtunately I am going to have to put these documents out here, and then the truth will be out, And you can ask Mark and Ted why 37 million with an M was sent over seas, and why werent commissions paid, If they were so transparent tell them to open the account records to the field, they wont, So when I release these documents what do you think mark and ted will do drop the company like e-verge, exactly, Ask about that, too, same thing, oh and I guess they Fired that escort service too.. You are so blind to the scam
So Troy, tell me what is your source? How reliable is it? And have you confirmed it? I hope so, as those are the steps of responsible journalism.
Paul Douglas,
Thank you for your concern, you do bring up a great point. I would suggest you read all of our posts over the last eight months, then ask yourself this question. If what I and others have posted is wrong, then why were we never challenged.
I am just a small fish in this saga, but the mainstream magazines and investigative reporters who also followed this story sure grabbed far more than I did.
I fully understand responsible journalism. But again thank you for your concern.
By the way have you double checked all the company propaganda? Which is the responsible thing to do, before you lead people down the wrong road. Have you read and checked all the facts and links we have provided over the last few months?
Troy, I would love to see the links to the credible sources of your information. I have read your opinions over the last eight months. But that is what they are, opinions based on your interpretation of the information you have. So please, provide us with a bibliography so all of us can do our own due diligence and form our own opinions.
Paul Douglas,
Paul, respectfully then you are blind. Opinion is defiantly intertwined within the facts. Yet, the facts and links we provided did not have any of our opinions. And as for the rule of law, there is no room for opinion.
However, I remember folks just like you saying the same thing about ASD, Burn Lounge, and TVI. Two of these three are no longer here. The founders made millions along with the top distributors.
Paul, this is not about opinion, it is about sharing facts and making sure distributors have a full picture. What you or others do is completely up to you. What I find so humorous is the fact Global Verge distributors find the need to defend they company, and yet the company itself refusing to answer any of the questions we have raised over the last few months.
We used company calls and asked questions, no opinion just questions, yet no answers.
There is only one any other company we have issues a scam alert on where the distributors find the need to defend their actions as heavily, TVI, I have to ask why?
When I came down hard on Randy Jeffers for the crash of Destiny, and his launch of WOW, he did not hide behind reps, he did not promise to reach out then never did, he called and we talked.
When I came out hard on Global Verge, it was Steve Lewis who came forth to talk, not the founders. And Steve and I never saw eye to eye, but he knew I would report as I saw fit.
Paul, I am sure as a person you are a great gentleman. And I am sure you are leading your family and friends as you see fit.
But, if Global Verge is such a great deal, then go build it, and don't worry about what folks write.
When I was with A.L. Williams, we did not defend ourselves, the company did that in court and won, instead we went and built a business. So stop worrying about opinionated folks like me, and go build the business.
If I am wrong, then the facts will show that in the months and years to come. If I am right, then you'll find a new company.
So does that mean you are not providing the bibliography?
Paul – you are a moron. Keep your head stuck in your ass as it is obviously the ONLY reality you know. You think Troy posts this stuff as a stunt to get himself on Oprah? Really guy go back to being a librarian, you are apparently programmed for linear thought so stacking books is perfect for you, and stop sounding like you are "THE SOURCE" for good and fairness for all.
Give them FREEDOM Troy!
Here is the other cheek. Strike away.
Paul, I have seen you on Troy's site many times, You must come here for good infromation except when it will effect your company then you want to question Troy's source!!! Good Luck with that
I respect and value Troy's opinions. But that is the point I was making, it is his opinion. As far as GV and AKW is concerned, who cares. It is a vendor and client issue, being tried in a public forum, where opinions and theory often masquerade as facts.
I have shared privately some thoughts and theories with Troy, as this is not the place to launch accusations without a preponderance of proof to back it up.
Yes, I have been here several times. Usually when, his blog posts make it to the top of the search engines. I would like to see what is said.
However my comment was not said to defend or defame. I once made a mistake of sharing information about an individual and his company on an online forum 12 years ago. It was an opinion based on information received from one source and not from both parties. It required some serious back peddling, brown nosing and a public apology to avoid litigation. I would hate to see Troy's credibility and reputation tarnished if he found himself in a similar situation.
Paul,
You make a great point… "Troy's Opinions" although my opinion is based on facts we have published and some we have not, at the end of the day until a court of law decides of GV is legit or a scam, it is seen as my opinion.
Now, there is one small thing here we need to think about. If I remember right, when the GV/AKW deal was announced, it was not announced as client/vender deal, it was announced as some type of merger. Now if it was a real merger that might put a whole new light on things.
And boy do I know where you are coming from with the apologizing… I have done that myself in the past. More than likely I'll do it in the future also.
Well, at the end of the day, we'll all watch what happens in this continuing saga.
Again, thank you for coming by and sharing your insight, it is easy to see, you are a man of wisdom who is keeping a close eye on everything. You are a true asset to this community.
Living An Epic Adventure,
Troy
Well I have had service for two month with GV. Troy! My service was re-newed this evening. You said they did not any service. You state that funds have been sent to an off shore account. Do have acccouting or accounts? Put it up or shut up! I think they have a good deformation of character suit. Regarding Chris G. you need to check your references before posting information from a guy with an office at UPS store.
Donna,
You should listen a little better. I neve said "any service" I did write in the title of the post "Their provider" I did not say their only provider. Plus Activation King Wireless has made it clear they will be taking care of the clients using their MNVO.
Donna, you need to learn the history of your own company. Why don;t you read the posts and listen to the Global Verge calls.
You are a doll, but, need to do your homework. By the way it is not Deformation of Character, it is Tortuous Interference of Business. And don;t you think if what I have reported on over the last eight months was false someone would have file a lawsuit? Not just against me but every major reporting agency under the sun?
By the way, just in case you miss the other comment. Have you ever thought, Chris might own the UPS store? Or, maybe the guy who talked about the UPS store might be blowing smoke? Funny how you are fast to judge my reporting, yet you just believe whoever makes you feel good.
Just a thought.
But, I am glad you came by to comment. Always good to see two sides of an issue.
yeah whats your cell phone number I bet they activated you on page plus, and thats a fact and if you paid 79.99 for a 39.99 plan your a fool, so if you want to support that, it is absolutely laughable lol lol, I advise everyone to dial *611 and or dial #737 and press option four for page plus and see if you are their customer, also if you are paying more than 39.99 for that plan it is absolutely illegal
Donna let me guess – your a TD with GV as well. Isn't it funny how the people making the money defend their paycheck at the expense of the ones that are PAYING their check. Makes me sick to see the greed that can overcome our inherit programming – honesty!
Really, how about $39.95 a moth for the 18 months form 20,000 plus peole with no service where are the funds. do the math on that one my friend
Wow – folks still go for the sidelines in wireless and telecom when there's a big fish in the tank that has NEVER missed a payment to its distributors. Come one, guys – look around and see which co has TWO wholesale partnerships with MAJOR US CARRIERS… details and facts thebigfella@lightyearwireless.com
Mr.goldberg thank you for bringing that up I do have 3 home based people in Florida, shouldnt those people be allowed to have the opportunity to sell wireless, My agent in Miami sell more than some of my stores out of his home, so tell me whats the difference, I support my stay at home moms, and people who cant work a regular job, so if you have a problem with that, I am sorry but I believe everyone should have a chance, ok, so It doesnt matter TO ME if you have a 3000 sq ft store or operate from home as long as the job gets done wouldnt you agree? thats what im doing now with e associates and others leaving GV so its ok for an e associate to operate from home but not an average person?
Chris,
I just thought it odd that GV promoted you with storefronts. I went to the three locations in Orlando and did not find one. Our team wondered if you really had a legit business with all the mis information posted.
I wish you well now that you have been scammed by the GV folks too.
Troy, I should have told you earllier. I live in Orlando and went by the Activation Kings stores listed on his site. One was a UPS store (for 6 years), one was a single family home and the other was a wireless store that had just opened that week. The owners had no Idea what i was talking about. Should have cut the dangling carrot then.
Ken,
As I wrote below, there is no doubt in my mind there are no saints in this game. The question at the end of the day is going to be who has the most money to pay the defense attorney.
You would be amazed who we have heard form over the last few weeks. In reviewing Chris's background and company info, I have to admit he looks far cleaner than others.
I agree, how can you use or reference a guy (Chris Greco) which has a office in UPS store. I have had GV service to 2 months and still working.
Donna,
Thank you for your concern, and you bring up a great point. I wonder if Chris may own the UPS Store since they are franchises. This should be fin before the smoke clears.
Just so everyone knows, since mark is saying he has an MVNO, (laughable) because you cannot have anyone in your structure that has a record period, so how did they pull that off, They used our MVNO agreement with verizon, you can look me up MobilePro, at http://www.mvnolist.com ok, if mark is an MVNO where is he? My company changed its name from MobilePro to Unlimited Wizard on December 13th due to our Sub agreement with boost to offer an IDEN product, and to put it out there because to be honest GLOBAL VERGE has not done the best for ACTIVATION KING WIRELESS Name. But Please look it up for yourself and see the lie they are telling you,
Wow I cant lie to myself anymore, can you believe ted and mark have the audacity on the call tonight to try and save thier ass and put this on chris, WOW do the math 9431 customers on CDMA is at the cost of 28.00 and this is what I was told by raymond at global verge is 261,548.00 thats just cdma now ted says 178,650.00, So Ted is saying they owe King activation 82,898 troy do you understand this or is my math wrong here? I am going to have to just leave global verge and face the facts that you got me for 8 months but not anymore and that call was a freaking JOKE… bland statements and no proof, I hope chris comes forward and puts you pansies in jail you asses!!!
By the way, if you notice the dates on the website (December 13th and December 19th), and use your common sense, you'll figure out rather quickly that Chris has been putting this together while still representing Global Verge!! You don't see that as a little suspicious? HMMMM, is it possible that HE is the one that owes Global Verge money, since HE'S the one that has been taking the money for the activations???? THINK!
Excited,
You are making me laugh. Personally I do not care when Chris started doing anything. If you want to make Chris out to be a bad guy and everyone else out to be saints, then you have a long up hill climb in this community.
With all we have posted over the last eight months, as far as I am concerned there are no saints, just players. The question is which players will come out on top, and who will pay the price.
hi excited, for your Info Unlimited Wizard was called MobilePro that is my MVNO agreement with verizon I have changed the name and yes I expected them not to pay me after the merchant account froze, yup so I did what any smart business man would do have a plan B, or would you rather wallow in global verge pitty, see that cant put money in your pocket, oh and by the way i advise everyone since ted and mark are an MVNO go to http://www.mvnolist.com and I dont see global verge but I do see MobilePro, anything else? I didnt think so, please enjoy paying that 40.00 to support the good working girls in las vegas,
have a great day.
Yeah and the fact that Chris Greco tells people that he owns 10% of Wizard, you don't think that might have been why he would want to try and destroy Global Verge, and spread some rumors like the reps are all leaving GV and switching over to Wizard. Do ya think???
Do ya????
Juanita Ciquena,
Can you help us to understand your comment a little better? I think we all know Chris has ownership equity in his companies just like the GV boys have equity in their company.
If anything Chris has stated publicly is a lie against Global Verge, then they have a leg to stand on in defending what he states. Likewise if Global Verge is propagating lies about Chris, then he has a leg to stand on in defending his reputation.
So, I am missing your point. Please explain!
@ William. If you were paying $40/mo and getting nothing, as you say, then you missed the Bigger Pic.
I just want to thank Wizard or Activation King for not leaving us e associates totally burned at least we have a product we can actually sell now. And thank you for doing the right thing I cancelled my membership today as are alot of e associates and following chris
But, according to the Global verge CEO, they are a full-fledged MNVO themselves !
So, they don't even need a reseller like Activation King, do they not ?
_Arthur,
I talked with Verizon today as we were validating information, and I find it interesting that the CEO of Global Verge would say something so easy to prove. Ask him to provide the contact info with the carriers they have direct contracts. Each carrier has an MNVO team, you can call and verify the info. Make sure it's not a reseller company but direct with the tier 1 carrier.
if they had their own MVNO agreement, they would have not needed my company and if they are telling you they are, they are lying in hopes of stringing you along further, Heres my thing when you do a background check on chris greco you see masters degree in communications, when you look up mark you see federal convictions, ted well hes ted, and raymond 9 drug convictions for possesion of cocaine, so do your research, the only person with a clean record left there is ruth, and she was a police officer, so look at who you dealing with first, a bunch of convicts.
wow.. I was wondering who Raymond was because I hadn't heard him on the calls previously. But I have heard Chris on there and this will be another and the last break for GV and my entire team. Chris i will be calling you 2moro to set up with AKW … and thank you all
Man, I really to say we told you so because this means a lot of really good people got hurt. Very sad! JB
Thank you for finally doing the right thing chris I just made my first wireless sale with unlimited wizard and I must say porting my number went great and it works and my first customer loves it! I just hope everyone sees the light and sees that its a scam scam scam, I mean really come on I paid 40.00 every month for 8 months and got nothing, I had a website built for free got started and made my first 11.00 in wireless, I am sold, what global verge couldnt deliver Unlimited Wizard did, I am trully amazed I have told everyone in my downline to make the move, so either continue to get scammed or make real money here.
William check out http://jches.inheritancecc.com
Why not get paid for using your cell phone and your downline as well. Company in existence and the phones work. I have one, check the site out.
J.L.
I sure hope there isn't a single Global Verge rep that is actually surprised by this!
Chris Greco was and is a class A bonafide Jerk. He treated reps with disdain. We did not have a voice with him. He spoke as if we were just servants to him. he is trying to get people to use him and his company.
Mable Sable,
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. However, it does not change the facts when it comes to the split between Global Verge and Activation King Wireless, or that fact once again Global Verge seems to be without a merchant account provider and a wireless provider.
This is Chris Greco you do not need to use my company, but for your information all my customers have direct access to me as I keep my personal phone on all my sites, I actually brought a real wireless service to global verge, But they could not pay their bills, what would you have me do?
You are more than welcome to sell a real wireless product here at unlimited wizard, or, you can continue to pay GV every month for nothing.
Troy,
I am speechless, lost for words and speechless and FURIOUS!!!!!!!!!! To think how I led so many people to this sham. How sad for so many people that have continued to believe that things were going to turn around. I am so glad that I have personally canceled my auto ship with GV. Leaders, please do right by your team. Enough is enough. This is crap. Troy, I am behind you on this. If you need me for any help in anyway to see that this company gets shut down once and for all.
Thank you for being a stand up guy and admitting the problem.
You are a good leader and to admit you were mislead is a big task. I jumped out early when the whole deal fell apart with the VOIP phone because I've never seen anything like this in the MLM industry. When a product does not work, good manangement has a back-up and its implemented fast because you risk loosing people and that means a lot to the longevity of any company.
Take a look at this http://www.nowoneanswer.com – good company, good leadership with solid products.
Thomas, this is not a posting to promote other businesses.
Hi Casper, goon on ya m8! And remember this, even though you feel bad, people are very willing to forgive you for being mistaken…what they are slow to forgive is being misleading. You believed and so you led. That is noble. What is more noble is that once you no longer believed, you informed your troops.
I admire that.
Best,
Jim
Thanks Jim.
Hi "Excited" and "Partners"
I'm very interested in what you have to say about this. Will you NOW admit that all of us naysayers were right, or will you continue to scam people and lie to them?
My advice is to sue Mr. Petschel, as many of us called this BOGUS deal out months ago.
You are taking the word of an unscrupulous ex-vendor with an agenda. Activation King is still alive and well, and working directly with Global Verge on a daily basis. They have been paid everything due to them and are in for the long haul. All commissions are being paid on time, and have been since the one blip in jun/jul when so many people signed up it scared the merchant accounts. The closer GV gets to opening up their portals for retail sales the fiercer the attacks. just wait and see. The naysayers will be eating their words.
Reba,
Thank you for stopping by. Let's look at a few facts in this situation.
1. ALL venders, strategic partners, or whatever you want to call them all sign a NDA/NCA (Non Disclosure Agreement & Non Compete Agreement) Why would Chris Greco risk a lawsuit, unless what he is saying has merit?
2. You might want to do what I did and talk with Tier 1 carriers like Verizon who does have an agreement with Chris and who explained the Global Verge situation in detail.
3. Reba have you researched the ownership of Activation King Wireless to see who owns the company and where it is located? Have you taken time to research the site and see what is written. I find it interesting you would write this comment, if you had researched all the legal findings.
4. Why do you feel AKW has been paid everything due them? you have seen the merchant records for activations, or are you taking the word of folks who have paid an Escort Service owner $150K while telling distributors they do not have access to their funds to pay them?
5. I laugh at your comment on commissions. We have access to numerous distributors who were NEVER paid commissions, and are still trying to get paid. I can show you distributors who had their downlines ripped away and moved to other legs. Get a clue girl. You can drink the Kool Aid, but it does not change the fact.
6. Again, you write from a very limited understanding of merchant accounts. Merchant account processors don;t get scared. Everything they do is based on approved transactions, chargebacks, and complaints. When the cash starts flowing, they automatically increase reserve holdings, or freeze access to the funds until they are sure there is not a scam going on. If the owners are not credit worthy then they demand high reserve accounts.
Having run an MLM company where we ran millions of dollars a week and sometimes daily, I have a little knowledge in this area. We never had our accounts frozen because we were credit worthy. However, there were a couple of times we had to increase our reserve against chargebacks.
Please explain to me why a company is forced to move to an offshore processor? This happens when the US based processors believe the company is a risk and close them down.
Reba, you do not have to like the facts but the fact still remain.
7. reba, no one cares about Global Verge and their portals. What we care about is the unethical manner the company is run, and the fact distributors have suffered. This company has taken in millions in membership fees after promising some world changing wireless revolution. They then did a bait and switch for the third time, blamed it on venders for a third time, and have continued to take the money of good hearted distributors who believed in what their upline triple diamond were feeding them.
Show me anyone triple diamond or lower who is making anywhere near the propaganda preached? The comp plan has issues (as do most force matrix) and the only people who have made any real money has been the company.
I truly wish you the best of luck, in your tenure with Global Verge, and for your sake I hope you are 100% right.
you can contact your credit card company and have all your payment put into dispute from day one. once that happens and the credit card companys black list gv , how long do you think they will keep there head above water. Big grin here i have and i got it all back all 500.00 or so from day one. big grin again.
