    Complaint Type:
    Product Issues
    Status:
    Resolved
    Background: I purchased Lee Arnold's real estate investing course "Reverse REO Specialist Certification" (cost $997.00, invoice# ******) and his software program "SendFuse" ($297.00, invoice# ******) via two credit cards on May 19, 2023, totaling $1,294.00 I first emailed to ask for a refund of my money for their Certification and software on the very day I made my purchase, which was May 19, 2023. When my original login info didn't work, I called and spoke to *****************. It is on this phone call I discovered that the main training event wasn't until July *****. I immediately responded that that wouldn't work for me, and I was going to need my money back, since they had an extremely short 3-day refund policy. She asked if I could at least watch the four modules and see the Rules of 56 before I made up my mind. I told her I would. After completing what ***** had requested, I again requested a refund. Now, she informed me it was too late since it had been over their 3-day return policy. I extraneously disagreed. This has been going on since the end of May. Since I originally requested the refund within an hour of my purchase and taking ******* request to give it a chance, I believe it is only right to refund my two purchases. I did not ever waive my right to a refund! Except for the first module, the other three were only sixteen minutes long and from the contents, they were at least thirteen years old. When I told ***** this, she said I would have to wait until the 3-day seminar - again - July *****th. This was from May 19th, which was two months away and was never mentioned in any of their seminars or sales material leading up to my purchase. I feel extremely taken advantage of with this situation and am requesting my money refunded for the total amount of $1,294.00. My contact information is: (T) ************, (E/M) ********************* I'm located in the Pacific Time Zone. Thank you, ****************************

    My experience with **************************** COGO or Secured Investment Group is that he puts a smooth effort into his internet advertisements, he insists he's a good ********** he motivates his online audience to take action or lose out on the great income opportunity that he offers.His wording is seriously sugar-coated, a lot of people can be motivated by money but his support is almost non-existent. People that do home-based businesses don't have the luxury of approaching a supervisor for questions. Lee Arnold insists a person can call, email, or send a message through his online portal. I found that to be very untrue. I emailed several times, used his web portal & called when I was put on hold indefinitely, disconnected or even ignored after I reached the voicemail. There were times when I complained to their affiliate marketer, ***********, and then I received return phone calls. It got to the point that ultimately, I didn't want the phone call because his company had demonstrated disregard for a person who paid good money to be an active member. I came to the conclusion that his persistent online marketing is geared to attract new paid brokers that he can ignore as well. Lee Arnold's COGO Capital is NOT unique. Lee Arnold refers to his capital as private money,,, the normal phrase for this is Hard Money. There are plenty of Hard Money lenders available that lend to most states in the *** & perhaps at better ************* than COGO Capital.
