    I purchased the thirty machine package and and received all of my brand new machines and the locations i received were very good.The product sells itself and i even have friends and family that are asking where they can buy the product.My wife and i look forward to adding on to our route aggressively in the new year.We received the tools and assistance to launch our business off the ground and would recommend this product and service to anybody,Other then having to have the locations company relocate two or three accounts that required more staff members things ran quite smoothly during the entire process.

    This business represented by a guy named Dave is about selling energy chews with vending machines. Dave explained to me and ** **** that they will send us 16 machines with the candies and they will help with placing the machines in good locations where customers will have easy access. They advertised that they have partnership with **** ******** ******* ***** ********, and once the machines are placed, they will provide stickers of that organization. Dave was always calling me and ** **** to convince us about how successful the business is, pretending they deal with *******, sport centers locations, schools and other groceries stores. Everything included the shipping fees came to around 17000 CAD and we had to pay the full amount before the machines were shipped to our place. When I went to the bank to pay the money, there was a 50 CAD bank fees and when i called Dave, he told me he would reimburse the fees once they received the full amount. After they received the full amount, neither did Dave answer my phone calls, nor did he reply to my multiple e-mails. I finally got ahold of Maggy who is in charge of shipping the machines and Jill B****** who is in charge of finding the locations. **** *** ***** **** ** ****** ********* ** *** *** **** ******** *** ***** **** ******** ** *** **** ***** ** *** Dave never got back to me till date. The machines were sent, the locations were nothing compared to what we have been told. No more *******, no more any other grocery stores, no more any sport center, no more schools, no more partnership with ****. Out of 16 locations, I still have 6 machines left sitting at my house since March 2021 and the other 10 are placed at locations where nobody is willing to buy the candies. **** ** *** ****** ** ***** ********* **** ** ** ***** **** ***** * ****** ******** ** ***** None of those locations sold even 5 candies so far, a total fiasco. **** * *** ****** *** *** **** ** *** ** ***** **** **** ***** ******** ** ****** ***** *** ** **

    I was told I would have full support for the Lightning Force Vending Line. I purchased 50 units. I was told I would be a great addition to the team and someone who David B**** *** ***** ******** thought could work as part of the management team as well as just a client. I had issue after issue. My machines were delayed. Then my product was delayed. **** *** ******* **** *** ** ** ******* ******** **** ******** ****** *** I talked to Dave about the issues as I had put a retraction on the money I had sent to the locator and Dave advised he would pay me back if I couldn't work with Dave acting as a middle man to get the business up and running. I trusted his word and tried to do this and all he did was email me notes from the locator and did not assist in getting things done. I asked for him to call me and he ignored me. I later contacted the person who makes the product ** *** ** **** ***** and he said he would work on things for me with Dave. I was then told I'd get new locations at no cost to me. I worked with a new locator and got 8 locations and none of them were good and I wanted them moved during the 90 day guarantee. They told me they wouldn't do it. I was very frustrated and asked for my machines to be picked up and to be refunded. They said they would give me a portion of the money I spent and that they wanted this settled in 2021. I was then told that the shipper would be in contact with me right after the holidays to pick up my machines and issue payment. Nothing was done in January so I reached out to the shipper who knew nothing of this. I was then passed on to another person who now says they need a buyer and will reach out when they have that set up. **** **** ******** ****** *** *********** I spent over $35,000 on the business and was not given what I bought into. I have a copy of my prior review which I was told if I took down they would work things out with me. They did not.
