Also LRM, what about adding Flexcom with a "c" next to Flexkom in the thread title. Looks like they are trying to change their name.

Assuming for a second that the FK model is real and a merchant has 50-100 transactions to account for, this creates a huge amount of unnecessary accounting work. Considering this system does not link into existing POS terminals I have no idea why the merchant would want to bother. It is hard enough to get your cash register to balance at the end of the night without a bunch of workarounds.

Oh I know they are working on this while taking people's cash for the opportunity.

I love this part too! (Over €50 it is free to transfer. If under it will cost the customer €5.00 for the transfer from their Flexmoney.) Add some inactivity fees to drain balances and this has all the hallmarks of a perfect scam.

At a 2% rebate share to the consumer would have to spend $2500 just to reach $50, that's a heap of Sno-cones and temporary tattoos. I am left wondering why consumers would bother?

It's almost if Ian Driscoll was involved in promoting Banners Broker, oh that's right he was until the model flopped and the scam ran out of cash from recruiting.

Yes Flexkom are to be a Bank as part of requirement for our Global system. That gives us massive credibility.

I'll pile on here. Why is it these companies always work out the legal compliance after they have taken people's money? Never minding having technology that actually executes. As for credibility, GMAFB. What could be less credible than having a management team that has been involved in nothing but failed recruiting scams?

Caffeine Addicts located in Ringgold, GA hosting meetings and promoting this awful scam Flexkom that has stolen money from people for years now. The owner was notified to do her research out of concern she was being taken advantage of, but was not interested and VERY RUDE to my friend. Can't wait to see how it works out for you Jan Henry.

Seems Deborah Brolley, the "Corporate Headhunter" for Flexkom, according to her previous linkedin, has toned it down a bit. Also check out in bold type her hot air excusing PUMP AND DUMP in mlm. I feel a soft exit in her future with Flexkom. Too bad channel 7 in the Detroit area where her daughter works didn't do an investigative report! That would be embarrassing!

TERMINATION OF ACTIVITIES - ARRET DES ACTIVITÉS

As administrators of the FK Global page, we ask your attention for the following.

Almost two years ago we first heard of FlexKom. Passionate and convinced of the potential of the concept we got on board of the team a few months later. One and a half year long we have spared neither cost nor effort to make sure to market the concept by starting an office, making newsletters, providing presentations & trainings, etc.

Some time ago we got the contract of the National Directors in our hands that each ND receives before they start in this position. The contract outlines clearly the tasks, responsibilities and obligations: the organization and financing of a national office (service center), technical service, newsletter, marketing materials, organization of events and training programs are just a few of the obligations of an ND. A ND is compensated from the start to finance these things and he is deemed to do so. This in order to avoid that agents need to make high cost.

If we take a moment to evaluate two years FlexKom Belgium, we can only conclude that the Belgian ND, Erwin Fally, has not fulfilled any of these tasks and responsibilities. We have reported this several times, verbally and in writing, to the management in Munich that has yet to be addressed.

More recently it came to us that our Belgian ND Erwin Fally has moved agents in his downline to a for him more favorable position in his structure. This too has been reported to Munich and this too has yet to be addressed. The appointment of Paul van Montfoort as general director of the Benelux - who in Feb 2014 took up the leadership for The Netherlands with lots of professionalism and passion - was our last resort. Unfortunately this was never formalized by the owner of the company, Cengiz Ehliz.

The current ND Erwin Fally is now starting to recruit new agents and offering them key positions of e.g. Regional Coordinator (for areas that Munich already appointed RC's for) and he is putting all of his effort in getting these people appointed who so far have not even built a team. In other words, the current RC's and agents have no guarantee whatsoever that they will be able to reap the fruits of their personal and financial efforts from the past.

The above mentioned plus the fact that the terminals that we ordered and paid for months ago were not delivered, has brought us to the point that we no longer believe in the integrity of the company and/or several members of the management team. This is the reason that we have decided to stop our FlexKom activities. Every agent is of course at liberty to continue with what he or she believes in and stands for.

We would like to thank everyone for their effort and devotion in this entrepreneurship. We have learned and laughed a lot. We'd also like to pay our respect to the Dutch director, Paul van Montfoort and Paul Peterson for their unconditional commitment to make this project work in the interest of all the agents.

In closing we'd like to stress that we have not joined another network nor do we have the ambition to do so.

We look forward to seeing you again in another moment, another place!

FK Global Team

Since watsco seems to have left the building for good, I'm sure if he was still here that he would assure all of us that: this is a minor issue and these people did not put forth the effort to make FK a success. This is nothing more than sour grapes that their person was not selected for a higher position in FK. They are not telling the whole story and FK would never do anything remotely like this to their ND's and their team members, or some such nonsense. But I am so glad this is a real and legitimate business, cough, cough.

Amazing how all the major pimps of this have run for the hills. Gee, would have never guessed that would happen NOT!

What is there to clear up?

People are people, they disagree.

Any comments on Russell Longcore, FK Global Team, Ian Driscoll, or the "roll out" in the US?


I hate to be a sourpuss but what is it you think is going on here beyond endless recruiting? It's one thing to disagree, but four years in don't facts and a lack of execution start to matter?

Watso,
What network marketing companies have you been associated with other than Flexkom?

Do you or anyone you know have the Flex-APP?

Actually the question is do you?

Yes I do. Since you want to jump in on the question I will open it up to everyone on here. Is there anyone on here that have the APP?

I don't.

I also don't have any Iraqi dinar or drive a DeLorean

Your point being ????

Since you have now given me permission to answer, NO I don't and why would I want it, or why would anyone else? It is totally worthless. I thought I was able to answer since you asked ribshaw if he or anyone he knew had it. Since I know ribshaw, I thought that included me.

I don't need it to give a customer a discount. That's what you clowns don't get. NONE of you have given a legitimate reason why a merchant has to pay someone else for them to be able to give a discount that they, themselves, can just give on their own.

I have the app. Why do you ask?

I don't have the app.

Why would I want to support a company that is run by con men who have scammed before?

Not only the founders, but the many promoters have pimped other schemes and have even been imprisoned by authorities.

What most people don't get is it's NOT ABOUT THE PRODUCT!!!!!!!! The app doesn't mean squat. The pos doesn't mean diddly. All that matters is convincing other folks to invest money aka RECRUITING before this thing shuts down.

If you're one of those NWM scumbags with a "team", you might be lucky enough to get a position, bonus upfront, or speaking fee. Making measurable money off purchases isn't going to happen. Geesh.

@Watsco The corporate team at Flexkom is clueless on how to run a company. Based on their pathetic results to date, that is clear. However, the main reason why Flexkom has failed in the USA (and other markets) is simple. The Flexkom model ADDS costs to the delivery of service. Today, if your product or service can be digitized, it will. And when that happens, commoditization occurs and you have to market your service based on price as has been proven in almost every retail category over the past 5 years.

Thank about it. There are literally dozens of APPS and Mobile Platforms available to the typical local merchant today. Why should they pay multiple people in the scheme money (100% extra fee) to access a service when so many companies allow them to deal direct? Simple answer: They will not. Period. The MLM model does not work with a service such as Flexkom.

Question for you Watsco: Is Flexkom properly licensed with state and federal regulators in all of the states where they have sold distributorships?

Is your name Jason Marks? If you want to remain anonymous, I understand.
