FederalGrantsNetwork.com
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.

Comments to date: 13. Page 1 of 1. Average Rating:  Brian Evans Oregon | 4:51pm on Monday, February 23rd, 2009  | I ordered this online thinking that, hey, pay shipping and handling and I'll get to check it out, that sounds fair enough. Well, they never sent the CD, but they sure as hell grabbed the $49 bucks out of my account. When I called to inquire as to where my CD was, they said they would send another one. I asked if the 10 days could be restarted so I'd have a chance to check out the program and also get my $49 back, they refused. Thank God my bank let's me dispute charges. |
Jay Winchendon,MA. | 3:32pm on Monday, December 1st, 2008  | My creditcard was unlawfully charged 59.69 I did not authorize any funds to be taken from my creditcard acct. Everybody is thinking it, I'm just saying it,----PIRATES!!! It's a good thing I can't get my hands on you. 'cause I would totaly kick someones ass!!! |
patricia simpson 359 lamplighter drive benton, arkansas | 8:06pm on Sunday, October 19th, 2008  | In 2007 I was charged between $200.00 and $300.00 and all I got was a CD and I asked for a refund and they have refused. They did not tell me that I had a certain time to cancel. They did not try to help me get any grants. This is a scam. They should have to refund every ones money that they did not help get grant money. They should be reported. |
shandi IL | 3:26pm on Tuesday, September 30th, 2008  | Im hadicapped on a fixed income, trying to get a home for myself and i knew it sounded to good to be true. I feel so stupid got charged 59.97 twice and havent recieved anything total scam. I hate people that take advantage of others trust. |
Patricia Florida | 7:01am on Saturday, August 23rd, 2008  | 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!!!! |
Linda NH | 9:25am on Monday, July 21st, 2008  | 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. |
SUSAN E. HOLMES Paradise, CA | 1:14am on Monday, July 14th, 2008  | 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. |
Nattina Orlando,FL | 11:30pm on Wednesday, July 2nd, 2008  | 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. |
James New York | 1:54pm on Friday, May 9th, 2008  | The fine print the author writes about is actually not all that fine, it's the first paragraph on the sign-up page. |
Roland Clindist idaho | 4:23pm on Monday, April 21st, 2008  | Went thru my Bank account and frond out I am being charge for something I know nothing about. What kind of scam. I don't have this Grant thing on my computer. Be going over to the local BBB to find out what's going on. |
Sally Location unknown | 5:36pm on Thursday, December 20th, 2007  | 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. |
Sue Matthews Location unknown | 4:14pm on Tuesday, November 27th, 2007  | 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. |
Charles Location unknown | 12:32pm on Sunday, October 21st, 2007  | 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. |
