I sent my resignation into my rep today. Rep ** is *****. I asked for a refund of the $125 I spent 3 days ago, no answer. I spent some time in the training and I was promised it wasnt at all like Primerica. I heard Transunion was purchased by this group and then admittedly did my research of reviews after. I hate that I fell for a sales pitch but I was told I wouldnt need to do the sales right away, that I could just help keep a team organized. Once I looked at the training I saw that wasnt the system I was in. Please just refund my money, this job isnt a fit for me. If youre not an extroverted, charismatic, silver tongued Kool aid drinker this isnt a job for you. Ive seen MANY commission based pyramid businesses and I have a bad taste from all of them.

Today my independent research is telling me that the business was a pyramid scheme and that the products were not what was described to me. I was told I was being charged for a background check and that I will be provided a job with salary pay. Because of the significant misrepresentation and misleading information I received, I have submitted my resignation and I am requesting that you refund me the $125 application fee and delete/shred my personal information (PII). My agent code was 91WLJ.World Financial Group

Hi my name is *******, and like many of you I too was mislead and feel really hurt by this really think i could have a great change! Paid the 125 thinking that's all because nothing else was said to me! I had to pay not really even understand what the 125 was for, then had another Zoom meeting with an licensing agent wanted another 75 for extra training and to set the exam that I was not ready for in anyway. Paid it then the next day another Zoom meeting happend where they try to make me a customer try to make me buy a policy and told me I have to have 3 other people by a policy with that agent. I knew in this moment I was being seriously token advantage of. Mind you this all started January 1st 2023 and I ended January 5 2023 Would like a refund of the $125.00 and all my information (S.S birth date and so on so forth to be completely removed from your system) my WFG number is 91 VIM I truly hope people do there research on this company and many more ??Krystal M.

Oh and would like my 30 for the extra training that I am not participating in as well the $45 for the exam they made me schedule for! I truly can't help to say how much this really hurts to feel lied to and so vulnerable! Please do your research this company will only take from you.World Financial Group

5 starsWFG is a company that can change your perspective to life!Pros: - Great opportunity (with a little investment of time and money) to own a business and expand as you wish - The opportunity to include business expenses (such as 2 ******************** trips each year) - Fantastic culture, everyone helps you and supports you to lift up and grow - You will feel amazing helping families with their financial needs - Ongoing trainings from direct mentors to top assoicates in this business Cons:- Requires patience and tough mindset, otherwise you will quit sooner or later.- Might take sometime at the begining to create a book of business but it is eventually rewarding. - Working with people can be joyful or nerve racking, so you need to be prepared mentallyReview fromKaren A

5 starsWorld Financial Group is the best opportunity business opportunity Ive had! The financial education helped our family and we are now on our way of building a strong financial house. The *** system really works if you follow it, join, get licensed & share our campaign for financial literacy. This is a very state regulated industry, therefore background checking , getting licensed and getting compliant with all the requirements are very important.Review fromDheeraj C

5 starsI am learning a lot from this financial literacy education. For those who are saying it is a scam, maybe this business is not for you. This is a highly regulated industry and are not for individuals who are looking for get-rich quick scheme. But I hope and pray you get value from the education it offers. It is for your financial foundation and no one will offer this education for free. I was been looking for this kind of financial help before. Only in WFG I learned the answers to my questions. Look for friends you can trust. If you don't want to trust your friend, then maybe say no from the very beginning. We don't force and chase anyone who is not willing to be helped or not willing to learn. We want what is best for our friends and clients! For some agaents who are pushy and deceiving their clients, I tell you, they will not stay. Wrongdoings will not remain unpunished. But most agents are honest and sincere. Find one and make your money works for you! Then help others as well by becoming a campaigner or sharing the information!Review fromElisa B.

5 starsI am very thankful that someone shared this business with me. The money I put in to start is only a ************** compared to what I got back. For this business to work, you have to give your time and attend meetings. And its totally not a scam because we are licensed agents. If it didnt work for some, that means they really did not understand the business.Review fromStella B

5 starsI was a skeptic, one of the biggest ones. Why would someone like me, with a great educational background, MBA, years of experience in corporate ******* - why would I ever listen to or follow those that are not even originally from the financial industry. But then I opened my mind, listened, experienced it for myself (instead of just reading strangers review here) - and it totally changed my life. I get it now - traditional financial industry workers are purely in sales and WFG is all about education, no matter what background you are in. This business is not for everyone, and I thought it wasnt for me - but luckily I was wrong. This is for ANYONE who wants to change their lives. Im glad that we are highly regulated and need to be licensed by our state - we are Professionals who learn by helping ourselves and helping others.
