      On 4/2/25 MDG sent a request for funds. My payment date is for the 3rd of every month. Due to them sending the request for funds early my bank has charged me an NSF for the 2nd time dealing with them.

      I called their 800 number just to be told that they will send a payment request early, and that they already have. But they don't actually pull the money until the payment date.

      This request for funds makes the bank look at your balance to see if you have the funds available. If you do not you get hit with a NSF fee. I now owe the bank $100 for the NSF fees because MDG decided to send the request early.

      On December 31st this company reported to my credit report. There has been no report since December although by email that said they just updated, asked me to check. I told them it was not updated and they never returned my email. It seems like weeks go by till a payment goes through. I have paid a significant amount of money to pay off this account and I would like this reflected in my credit report.

      12/19/24 Was the date of order. I received my order on 1/6/25. Items were being transported from CA. I purchased Two tvs one 55 inch Samsung Tv and One 75 in samsung tv. The 75 inch tv Arrived damaged. I contacted the company, they asked that i provide pictures of damage. I have sent pictures and videos of the damage, all to get a response that they cannot see the damage from the pictures and asking me to take more pictures. I feel as if im getting the run around from the company. Also the delivery company does not want to take full responsibilty for the damage which has been shown clear as day in the videos and pictures.

      I placed my order and was charged over a week ago and have gone round and round in circles trying to get order shipped out. When I made original order I even paid extra for priority processing. All advertisements while placing order claimed would be here before Christmas that was the whole point yet they still ******** even shipped out the order. They had no issues collecting payment from bank account and I've sent every type of verification humanly possible and still haven't shipped order. I also record all of my phone calls so I have audio can email if need to where I was told on dec 17th that I would receive a call on December 18th to set up shipping and tracking and payment plan which still hasn't happened. ******** ** **** **** *** ***** *******. They immediately charged me yet won't follow through with products.

      I am rejecting this response because: I have many emails stating I am behind in payments....I have 8 years of ****** **** account info available for BBB. I have also sent the last 2 payments taken from MDG, within 24 hours of each other, ***** ** *******. So not only are they untruthful, but I can also provide other months where they took 2 payments in 24 hours. This company told you they couldn't help you because they couldn't find my information.....for one, if they cannot locate an account, how are they still taking monies from me 5 years later, and second, I was the one that provided the BBB with the contract and all of the information so far, with MDG,THE BUSINESS, saying the don't have records. 

      I bought items from this company after my house burnt down in 2020, for 1900$ in October 10th 2020....I am still paying as of December 2024, when they took 2 payments within 24 hours and then I had a stop payment put on my account. The bank has seen what MDG does and cannot believe this is happening hence why they helped me block them. To date I have paid 4900$ on 1900$ and have paid it back in full.

      If you actually look at their website, there are massive amounts of customers going throught the same things, *** **** * ****** ** ** *** ****** ** ******* **** ******* *** **** * *** ** *** ***** ** **** **** ***** ** **** ****** ***** **** ***** *** *** ** ** **** **** * *** ** *** **** **** *********

      This is when I contacted you.

      I am rejecting this response because:, they have not tried calling, and I have received nothing via email, except the supposed auto responses. Again I can show what I've paid since October 2020 and what I have paid back is more then what was owed. Have you asked for a copy of the agreement? And how much of a percentage they are taking? Because at 1900$ borrowed, and 4800$ paid back, I think there is something wrong. I have spoken to these people multiple times, as I have already said, and they tell me they will keep taking money until they feel I've paid them back. I don't understand the issue, **** *** ******* ****** *** *** I came to the BBB for help, not to reconcile a bill. Are they allowed to do this? Have you asked them for payment records? Because I have offered these to you. I want these people  to stop trying to take unauthorized payments, like 2 payments within 24 hours, ***** ** *******. I want them investigated, or at least have someone read the comments on their site. ***** ****** *** ***** **** *********. **** ****** ** ** **** ** ***** ***** **** *** ****** ***** ******* * ** ** **** * ** **** ****** *****.

      On 8/29/2024 I placed an order with MDG for one(1) TV/gaming console bundle and a virtual reality headset, all three items to be used as holiday gifts. I made countless attempts to reach out to my "sales associate" who went by the name "***** *******"(ext ***) and received no response (email or phone messages). Finally, on 10/24/2024 at 0944hrs "*****" called me to inform me I was APPROVED for my credit limit and that all they needed was "basic" information to continue with my purchase. I provided a bank statement and pay stubs, all of which were approved and showed "successful upload" on their website. I signed my agreement paperwork via e-sign, they drafted my first payment, and we officially entered into a legal contract of service. Fast forward to yesterday, 10/28/2024, I received a phone call from "*****" who stated that my paperwork was not sufficient enough and I needed to resubmit a new bank statement AND my social security card to verify I was who I was. IN WRITING he told me to send him my social security card to his email and he "would handle it." After resubmission of my statement and uploading my SSN to their portal online, I received an email from "*****" stating my package would be sent out within 48hrs and he appreciated my timely responses. At 0328hrs on 10/29/2024, I received a denial letter stating they "could not verify my identity" and when calling to gain understanding, "*****" said he didn't "have time for my ****" and immediately forwarded me to someone else, who then said I was never approved. I asked about my approval letter and the fact they demanded my SSN AND A NEW STATEMENT and he said I was *****. He proceeded to tell me I was never approved (I have the approval letter) and they never drafted money (my statement reflects otherwise) before hanging up on me, laughing.

      This is in reference to MDG USA INC. at **** ******* ****** ********* ******** ******* *** *** **** *** *********** ******* **************.
      On June 04, 2023 I ordered the ******** 100" Home Theater Portable Projector Screen and a ******* *** ********* *** Portable LED Projector. The sale amount was $567.00. Total Purchase price was $614.66. On March 28th I spoke to Dina K*(Tel: 1-800-906-0975 Ext. ***) because the projector had a burning smell and you could no longer see the picture. On March 29th, I was sent and E label to send the Projector back and was sent a new one once they received the Tracking Number. On April 02, 2024 the new projector was sent to me. In Sept 2024, I was watching the projector when all of a sudden the picture went dark to where you could barely see it. I sent emails to Dina to inform her of this matter but never received a response, so I started calling and always got voicemail with no call back. Today October 23, 2024 I called customer support and was told because I did not purchase an extended warranty, there was nothing they could do. I responded that the new projector should still be under warranty since I had only received it in April of this year. The agent then responded, no the one year warranty carried over from the original projector I had received in June of 2023, so therefore it is not under warranty. I find this as a false statement since it was a Brand New Projector that I had only received in April of 2024. I have been paying $39.82 since June of 2023 and still have 20 payments left, which would bring the total cost to $1473.34. I should not have to continue to pay so much for a projector that does not work. Are they just selling inferior or returned/repaired products? Maybe they need to be investigated against them for inferior products and unethical practices.

      Date: 08/11/2024

      Thank you for reaching out. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience you’ve encountered.
      We would like to clarify that the replacement projector you received was issued to fulfill the original one-year warranty from your initial purchase in June 2023, which has now expired. We can assure you that we do not sell repaired or inferior items. If you need anything else or have further questions, please feel free to reach out. 
      Thank you for your understanding.

    BBB Business Profiles may not be reproduced for sales or promotional purposes.

    BBB Business Profiles are provided solely to assist you in exercising your own best judgment. BBB asks third parties who publish complaints, reviews and/or responses on this website to affirm that the information provided is accurate. However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.

    When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.

    BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period, except for customer reviews. Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this company, please let them know that you checked their record with BBB.

    As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation. BBB charges a fee for BBB Accreditation. This fee supports BBB's efforts to fulfill its mission of advancing marketplace trust.
