Amscot Financial, Inc.

"The unprofessional and rude representative within the Hispanic accent who just hung up the phone at your Corporate Office in Tampa when I asked his name will now cause a Complaint with the Federal Trade Commission."

"Great company! Company cares about their customers and employees. Also do amazing work within their communities."

"Deposited my pay check only reason I went to them was cause i lost my card and I need the money fast So I cashed my check at Amscot being a first time customer I trusted them. 4 days later I get a call that “ the check was bounced” how If I only went to them I feel like they want to take my money so I blocked them I will never be going back to them first and last time."

"Well I was done with Amscot about 5 years ago with their debit card thing got smart got a bank account. But what really sucks is I haven't seen my child support for the last 9 months with a few of their money orders off the top of my head five or six. Child support told me that they have not received my money so I called Amscot gave them my money order receipt numbers they tell me that they have not been cashed but give us $12.50 on every one of them and we'll stop payments on all of them it rounds up to about a hundred and some dollars to stop the payments I told them that's basically half of what I've paid so give you half of what I've already paid to get half-back so I pretty much gave you all of it what a rip off I'll never set foot in an Amscot ever again and I would strongly suggest that nobody give those people a dime for paying your bills money orders check cashing go to your grocery store they'll cash your check Publix does it all the time or get smart go get a bank account cut those crooked Bank out called Amscot! And where's the zero rating don't even deserve one."

"Amscot's Inverness Florida Location fraudulently stole $75.00 off the Western Union Wire System that I sent to my daughter. My daughter was suddenly left homeless and had no place to go and no food or money. I wired her through Western Union enough money to cover a hotel room and food until the next day. The Manager Matt at this location had her sign to receive the money transfer and then instead of giving her the money took the $75.00 and said she owed Amscot from 4 years ago from an Amscot loan. He then gave her a receipt for the money he took. I contacted Western Union and they are investigating , they however said " it was not legal ". My daughter is disabled by law and was left homeless with no way to buy even a drink. It is illegal to have someone sign a form stating they received money and then take it for their own use. It is considered fraud and punishable by law. It is theft to take someones money without them consenting. This was my hard earned money that I trusted to Western Union and they " Amscot" / Employee Matt Stole it. I am seeking attorneys fees , prosecution of the employee and a lawsuit for direct emotional distress to my disabled daughter who was left on the streets hungry for 24 hours until family could get to her. This is not the way to treat customers and they had no right regardless of what transpired 4 years prior. The Americans with Disabilities Act and her rights as well as mine were violated and Western Union should remove their right to represent them in wire transfer. When I called Amscot I was told it is their policy to do this and they would stand by their employee. I am seeking Media attention and coverage from local news channels and social media forums to prevent this from happening to anyone else. BEWARE."
