“USA Grant Applications is a SCAM”

Nathan D.
4/6/24

Opened an account through USA funding applications. Was told that if I did not receive a grant, that my money would be refunded. Instead, my bank account was continually charged each month with no contact from the company. When I called to get my money refunded, i was told that they are only a service and that i was supposed to do more steps like keep filing for grants (that I'm not eligible for). The instructions are vague and misleading. In my opinion this is nothing but a scam to trick people in giving them access to bank accounts so they can continue to draw out money without providing any product. He told me the only way my money can be refunded is if i have a verification of denial of the grant. When i asked him how do i find that, he told me that his company is only a service and do not provide that information. So they continue to drain money out of people account while they wait for a denial letter from the grantor that never comes...SCAM.

We signed up for $34.95/mo and while doing the purchase, we decided not to and clicked NO THANKS. They still processed payment instantly during the registration, so we called them immediately. They did a "courtesy refund" of $25. So 3 minutes of their service without a complete registration costs $9.95. BEWARE!

It is a great opportunity. I hope it really gives the financial help that we are looking for. There are thousands of grants and rewards. Looking forward to them.

First of all the name is deceptive it is not a USA business. I cancelled less than 30 minutes after signing up and not getting a confirmation email. When I called I was told I was not getting my money back. So I have gotten absolutely nothing but a bought lesson. Keep your money in your pocket. This company is a scam!

Tip for consumers:
Yes. This company has no physical address on the site. The customer service agents are flippant and unhelpful. This company is literally stealing people’s hard earned money who is trying to get funding. In this economy, it’s criminal to allow this company to continue to exist. Please protect the consumers we are already trying to recover from the effects of the pandemic.

ON 2/28/24, I WAS SHOPPING FOR GRANTS FOR A START UP BUSINESS. I CAME ACROSS USA FUNDING APPLICATIONS ON LINE. THINKING THAT THIS WAS A GOVERNMENT SPONSERED BUSINESS. I APPLIED FOR THE GRANT AND PAID THE $29.95 FEE THAT WAS REQUESTED. I WAS SUPPOSED TO RECEIVE A CONFIRMATION EMAIL CONFIRMING THE TRANSACTION; AFTER 10-15 MINUTES OF NOT RECEIVING THE EMAIL, I BECAME SUSPICIOUS AND WENT BACK TO THE SITE TO CANCEL. THE SITE WAS ASKING FOR MY SIGN-IN INFORMATION, BUT I DIDN'T HAVE ANY SIGN-IN INFORMATION, BECAUSE I NEVER RECIEVED AN EMAIL. ON THE SITE WAS A PLACE WHERE I COULD CANCEL. SO, I SUBMITTED MY DEMOGRAPHICS AND CANCELLED. AFTERWARDS, THE SITE SHOWED THAT I HAD CANCELLED ON 3/27/24 AND IT STATED THAT I WILL NOT BE CHARGED; HOWEVER, TODAY, I NOTICED THAT MY ACCOUNT HAD BEEN CHARGED. SO, WHEN I CALLED THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE DEPARTMENT, I WAS TOLD BY JUAN THAT THE SITE DOES NOT SAY THAT AND THAT I AM STILL GETTING CHARGED BUT I WON'T BE CHARGED IN THE FUTURE. I TOLD HER THAT THAT SEEMED PRETTY UNFAIR AND THAT HER COMPANY APPEARS TO BE A "SCAM" AND THEY ARE RUDE AND DISRESPECTFUL. I TOLD HIM THAT THE NAME IS VERY MISLEADING AND THAT I CANCELLED WITHIN 1/2 HOUR OF THE TRANSACTION; NOT TO MENTION I NEVER RECEIVED AN EMAIL OR ANY CORRESPONDENCE FROM THEM ABOUT THE TRANSACTION. SHORTLY AFTER THE TRANSACTION, LAST NIGHT, MY BANK MADE 2 AUTOMATED CALLS INQUIRING ABOUT THE TRANSACTION, BUT I HUNG UP WHEN I WAS ASKED PERSONAL INFORMATION. SO, I CALLED MY BANK THIS MORNING AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY WILL SEND VIA MAIL A DISPUTE LETTER WHICH I WILL NEED TO FILL OUT AND MAIL IT BACK TO THEM OR BRING INTO ONE OF THEIR BRANCHES. I HAVE GOTTEN NOTHING OUT OF THIS DEAL EXCEPT AGGRAVATION, THIS COMPANY APPEARS TO BE A FRAUD AND SCAM I WOULD LIKE MY MONEY BACK.

I put in my application but left my card info blank because something seemed off about the website, the descriptions were lacking grammatically and the message seemed less than professional. So i never submitted the application but all my info was in there except card info because i left the page open until i did some research on the website. Before i know it, they cold call me from random number, begging me to finish my application and pay info. I simply said man "i dont have 30 bucks to pay for this. What should i do?" and the guy actually scoffed at me over the phone and then he hung up in my face! That seems like a very scammerish thing for him to do. So i went back to the website and deleted all my info destroyed my application and i exited their website for good. Now im reporting them. On a side note, the application is for a list of college grants i may be eligible for and that is FREE information but this website claims that they have a team of people working hard to put a list of grants together for my specific needs, yeah like i really believe that. It could be just this one guy doing this. Here is his phone number he cold called me from. *******015 the bot that answers sounds nice, but the people working there are faker than the bot's dramatic enthusiasm. Dont pay this website.

Tip for consumers:
It says on this website that their customer service sucks and after one of their team members hung up on me when i told him i dont have the money right now they hung up on me, literally!

Products used:
none i didnt finalize the payment because i had a suspicious feeling especially after they cold called me begging for my card info.

This company has you pay them money insisting there will be a refund if you're not happy. Once on their website you see numbers listed that have nothing to do with grants. I called several businesses that knew nothing of any grants, one was a tent manufacturing company and the other was some guys personal business. When I called to get a refund they said I needed to actually 'get denied' by one of the grant companies to be eligible for a refund and they played back a recording of me. It would be impossible to be denied by one of their own website grant phone numbers when the number itself is wrong, along with many others. He claimed he had no responsibility for changing numbers on their website, yet they claim that their website is updated daily with new grants and that you need to go through the grants and apply daily to get the best results. Day one for me was me basically calling illegitimate numbers for grants. The only real grants available on their website were to FOREIGN IMMIGRANTS, which I thought was kind of despicable. I spoke to the manager who was the rudest of all of them. Some Mexican guy. He was practically yelling over me during our conversation claiming no responsibility what so ever, and no intentions of rectifying the problem. So I told him I would file fraud through my credit card company. He said, oh its funny that you mention fraud because I am going to send these recordings I have of you to your bank and to everyone so they have it. I was like, wow that's totally fine because you promised a service that you did not deliver on. Meaning, you are in the wrong and that is exactly what I did. My credit card company assured they would handle it and not even 20 minutes later USA Grants texted my phone to say they refunded the money and please contact your credit company and tell them. No, YOU contact my credit company, I already warned you.

Please dont ever use this business and if you do, make sure you have a bank or a major credit card company to handle your dispute with them, because this guy was great at arguing that he's not a complete criminal. Obviously, thats not true.

You can further report this company to the Better Business Bureau for fraud.

I don't even know where to begin, fraudulent. Inaccurate information? Rude managers and sales reps? Harassing emails? The list goes on. I don't usually write reviews but I took time out of my schedule today to tell anyone reading this to RUN! My business email receives tons of spam messages but after I received an odd phone call from "WES" about being able to assist with finding funds for my business, but then states I would have to pay a couple thousands dollars. THEY ARE RUDE AND DO NOT CARE ABOUT CUSTOMER CONCERNS, I WILL NEVER DO BUSINESS WITH THEM.

I applied for this program and it was nothing more than a whole bunch of dummy websites or random trash. When I called to cancel they game me a 15 dollar courtesy fee and then hung up. Don't fall for their trap.

This company is a joke. I've tried to apply for grants, but each time I click on one, it just keeps opening or taking me to a bunch of different screens. When I've emailed support, they don't respond. When I try to contact cst srv, I'm just placed in the waiting queue forever. I would not recommend this at all.

Rude and huge scam! How is a company allowed to do this to people. People seeking funds for their livelihood. I called to cancel and the woman i spoke to a nasty woman who refused to cancel the transaction and when i asked to speak to a manager she said she was the manager and then proceeded to hang up on me. She refused to refund anything and the site does not do what it says at all. All the applications on the site ask for more money out of your pocket. Beware and do not give them the money you already dont have.

This website did not help me at all. I didn't qualify for anything on the site, and instead of helping me find the funding, they just took my financing. They took $34 out of my account, not as much as an email to let me know I was being billed, and the only response when requesting a refund was that when I registered for US funding, it was listed on the website. What a scam! I'm disappointed In this money-hungry site.

Tip for consumers:
Don't sign up. They provide the same free resources you can find on Google!

Life is good when you get funding for your education and personal needs. I applied for funding and usa grant applications helped me a lot in the whole process. Although they took a small fee to ensure the things smoothly. But at the end everything goes well.

If I could give them less than 1 star, I would. Please be very caution when you are working with them. If they tell you, that you have been pre-approved for a grant, but you need additional tradelines beware, you will never get the grant, and will be left holding the bag.

Filed with Texas AND FCC. Anyone can create a site like this in 5 min. They chsrge you up front then you have access to a bunch of phone numbers you can find free with a simple google search. One was my local HHSO! No s**t, like I never thought of calling them! Some numbers aren't even agencies or funding companies! One was a mechanic and another was a DME store!

Tip for consumers:
Its a bait n switch paywall scheme. Plain and simple.
