FederalGrantsNetwork.com is a company
that offers a comprehensive list of various
government grants. Despite their
official sounding name they are not employed
by, or affiliated with the United States
Government.
They claim that they will provide you
with access to a large directory of grants
that can help you get money for business,
personal, education, and even home buying
needs. From my experience people need to
be very skeptical with government grants
programs.
This field is ripe with scam
artists all claiming that the government is
just giving money away and they can all show you
how to get free money. So far I
haven't heard from anyone that was actually
able to secure a grant using these programs.
To make matters worse
FederalGrantsNetwork.com employs a deceptive
billing practice. They offer customers
a free introductory CD for the small price of shipping and
handling. What they're really doing is
using the S&H to get your billing account
information which they later use to start charging
you monthly fees for their service.
FederalGrantsNetwork.com outlines this in
their terms and conditions stating that if
you do not cancel within the allotted time
you are accepting the charges of their full
program. The problem is that most
people don't read all the fine print and end
up unknowingly paying monthly fees.
I've spoken to former
FederalGrantsNetwork.com customers and they
voiced their unsatisfactory experiences with
the company.
Some said that they never even received the
introductory CD or their membership access
to the website. In the end, I would
not recommend joining this program for their
poor customer service and deceptive billing
practices.
I work online with a method where you can make several
hundred dollars for a couple hours of work,
whenever you have time. This business is free to join and I
won't charge you anything for the
information, just let me
know where to send you the info,

This is completely a scam. I do not ever remember signing up for this. I cancelled the account. I refuse to give them any more money. I know it was my fault for not checking my account more closely. They started debiting the account under YOUREASYFUNDING.COM, then they switched to FEDERAL GRANTS NETWORK. This is NUTS!!!!

I did not check my monthly statements for many months and have currently found $300.00 in lost money which I am attempting to get back from the Visa debit card I have now cancelled. They must have gotten the information from my daughter's applications, research for grant money and college book orders. I cannot even be sure, as I do not have a CD nor anything from this company, which seems to have shifted from this name - to continue to scam me -to 'YOUREASYFUNDINGCOM" with the same $49.95 monthly charges. I haven't gotten the money back from Visa yet, they say it is my fault for not checking the credit union's statements like I do my regular credit card statements, hmmm? sounds like a scam to me all around. Wish me luck! I won't stop until this stops and my money is returned.

I've received everything I'm entitled to so far and yes they do charge me monthly by taking the money out of my acct., but it really makes it easy not to have to worry about paying this bill.

I fell for this bogus offer. I recieved my DVD. As you can expect I went thru the motions and recieved nothing but alot of run around AND! turn downs. I didn't get any grants but the company DID get my 49.95 before they even send the dvd, so much for 3.95 s&h. I called the customer support and demanded my money back. They say three to five days. We will see. I later found out you can go to your neighborhood library and get a book and fill out and send off for free. Don't pay for something that you can get for free.

The fine print the author writes about is actually not all that fine, it's the first paragraph on the sign-up page.

I have been charged the 49.95 to my account three times and have never received a thing. I found their phone number and finally got them to quit billing me. I have yet to receive any refund or any way to try and get my money back. What a SCAM!! I'm turning them in to the Better Business Bureau.

I received a CD via mail with no instructions no info. I want the 49.95 you are charging me every month canceled. I do not use this or will ever use. If you want this back let me know.

I was charged $49.95 by FederalGrantsNetwork.com directly to my bank account for info that I never received. It has been almost 3 months and they have not refunded me my money.
