            Status:
            Unresolved
            We had a free, zero down meeting with Formal Builder when my organization was looking to plan a formal. We were shopping formal companies to see who had the best deal. To get the free consultation meeting, they had us sign a large terms and conditions document. Within the document, there is a section which they vague used to ***** us for money when we decided not to go with their company. We had a 20 minute meeting with them and they alleged we owed them $21,000. After expressing issues with their business practices, they waited 9 months to send a follow up. I recently received an email from their lawyers alleging that we now owe them $31,000, and if we do not pay them they were threatening litigation or lawsuit. All of this for a 20 minute consultation meeting. They are an immoral company attempting to take money from college students.
