myusafinancialcard credit card/ merchant card/secured cart
This may not be right place to post this but i felt this is the
place where i could alert larger audience about the USAFinancial pitfall. I received a call from USA Financial and they said that they would offer me a credit card upon depositing $200. In return they would be offer me a credit card with $450 dollars worth vochers.So i have given authorization for deducting $200 from my bank account. After 10 days i received a letter saying that they couldn't offer me a credit card instead could offer me a merchant card. After another 10 days i have received 4 * $50 (=$200 not $450) worth vochers along with a merchant card and a catalogue. I can use that card only to buy products from the book and i need to put 35% down and rest i could use my vochers to pay my bill. The Shipping cost is 20%. So in order to use my $200 vochers i need to spend another 140 ( $40 for shipping and 35% down payment) The product are so costly, they would be about 250% to 300% more than the market price. I just decided to leave my $200 vochers un used. you can have a look at their website (www.myusafinancialcard.com ) It a pity. I don't know how i could take any legal action against them. Their customer care number is: 1800 769 0426 1877 872 7011 People who come to USA newly and looking desperately for a credit card are likey to get trapped with USA Financial Card.

A time to check
@harry_P
It could be a good idea to contact your local consumer group! I think in the USA it is called the better business bureau?? Here is a link to what others have said about this group! Ripoff Report: By Consumers, For Consumers

UsaFinancial
Same thing happened to me except I have received nothing from them. I have filed an afidavit of unauthorized account acitivity with my bank. I have also filed a complaint with the Florida Attorney Generals Office. Also, I filed a report with the Federal Trade Comission. I have pressured my bank every single day over Federal Regulation Form E and they must follow those guidelines. Complain to the BBB, the FTC, the FBI, your local police, Florida state and local police, Florida Attorney General, Florida state Governor, even the media and get this scam exposed. Do not rest until you get your money back.

Harry P don't know if you are still following this but...
The data supplied by Ravenous is excellent.
I want to throw in an extra two cents to all following. Any phone calls, or letters offering secured credit cards should be avoided. I'm not saying all are some kind of scam, but most are "fishy" to some extent. Want a secured credit card to use for Paypal, or to use to participate in legitimate surveys, which may require a credit card to participate, go to bank, and they will issue you one with a limited amount, maybe you deposit $150-200 on card. Reason: Even legitimate surveys, if you use the product a certain amount of time, and don't return it on time, will debit the card to you, as a purchase. If it has a limited amount, they can't debit past a certain amount. Sometimes if service oriented service, or product will continue to debit card. If card only has certain amount, can't be debited past that amount. In general beware of unsolicited, unrequested solicitations for secured credit card.
