Rip-off Report Corporate Advocacy Business Remediation and Customer
Satisfaction Program,..A program that benefits the consumer, assures them
of complete satisfaction and confidence when doing business with a
member business. The membership involves a commitment to Rip-off Report by
the member businesses. - No matter how many Reports are listed on
Rip-off Report about thier business; it's never too late!

Carefully developed and conservatively used for over two years, the
Corporate Advocacy Program has rapidly grown to be more successful than we
even imagined. A business that is interested in being better, who
recognizes the need to make changes, is the kind of business that this
program will help. Any business that is interested in being better, that
recognizes the need to change and commits to making those changes is the
kind of business consumers want to do business with and is the kind of
business we will accept as a Corporate Advocacy Program member.

by ED Magedson - Founder Rip-off Report

As a matter of policy, when Rip-off Report is retained by a company to
investigate independently and to publish our findings, we use every bit
of information at our disposal to determine the truthfulness of the
complaints against the company or individual.

NOTE: As a part of the Corporate Advocacy Program Rip-off Report
verifies all Reports and Rebuttals, and will expose those posted erroneously.

Our philosophy....

ALL BUSINESSES WILL GET COMPLAINTS, BUT HOW THOSE BUSINESSES HANDLE
THOSE COMPLAINTS SEPARATES GOOD BUSINESSES FROM BAD BUSINESSES.
It is never too late for any business or individual to make a complete
turnaround, making amends by making it right, even if it took a long
time to do so.

This program is called Rip-off Report Corporate Advocacy, Business
Remediation & Customer Satisfaction Program. A long name for a program that
does a lot for both the consumer and the Reported business alike.

This program requires the Member Business to agree to satisfy all
complaints past, present and in the future, even when those complaints that
come to us by e-mail .

The Member Business must also state improvements they are willing to
make to their business that benefit the customer to avoid the reported
problems from happening again in the future.

Rip-off Report has and always will be working hard for you, the
consumer, so you can feel confident about what to look for when dealing with a
business. Remember, just because a company is reported on Rip-off
Report does not mean you should not do business with them. Use Rip-off
Report information as a tool to your advantage, so you know what to look out
for when dealing with that company or individual.

Not all reports should be taken as complete gospel. Some people will
maliciously post complaints on the Internet and this is beyond the
control of Rip-off Report. Remember, consumers and businesses both file
frivolous lawsuits every day! Readers need to use their own judgment when
considering any complaints posted on the Internet.

ONCE A RIP-OFF REPORT IS FILED, IT WILL NEVER, EVER DISAPPEAR...
Unlike other consumer agencies, once a Rip-off Report is filed, it will
never, EVER disappear. Why? Our theory is it is better to see how a
company or individual rectified complaints in the past. So, in the future
if you see no new complaints about a company and you can see the
history of how past complaints were resolved, wouldn't you feel more
comfortable doing business with that company or individual? After all, all
businesses will get complaints. It is impossible to satisfy all of the
people all of the time.. no matter who you are.

NOTE: Around two years ago in the early stages of developing this
program, Rip-off Report did consider removing reports for one company. We
immediately realized that by doing so, we would destroy the credibility
of the Corporate Advocacy Program ourselves! We developed another method
to offset negativity for that company that still remains in place
within this program today. NO reports have ever been deliberately removed to
date. (Working with electronic mediums subject to system failures and
attacks from detractors, Rip-off Report cannot guarantee with 100%
certainty that NOTHING has ever disappeared. This site has had to be
restored from backups more than once in the past, and we can only offer our
deepest apologies if something important to you has gone missing.)

RIP-OFF REPORT DOES NOT SOLICIT THE CAP PROGRAM
Rip-off Report does NOT solicit the Corporate Advocacy Program. This
program is only for those businesses that come to Rip-off Report with a
desire to rectify the complaints and change their ways after realizing
they can do better for their customers.

Keep in mind, many businesses never did anything wrong at all or were
the victim of circumstances or some misunderstanding. Hey, thanks to Al
Gore starting the Internet

..consumers now have the edge and don't
have to wait for their 15 minutes of fame at their local TV Station or
some newspaper that could possibly misquote them anyway.

IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO SATISFY ALL THE PEOPLE ALL OF THE TIME...
It is impossible to satisfy all the people all of the time, but
consumers can feel more secure knowing they are doing business with a member
of our Corporate Advocacy Program. If a Member Business does not live up
to their stated commitment, Rip-off Report is here to help. If a member
business does not live up to its promised commitments to their
customers in a very short period of time, that business is off the Corporate
Advocacy Program. This program has been running over 2 years as a test
and is now ready to expand further.

RIP-OFF REPORT CHOOSES TO BE A POSITIVE FORCE IN THE CONSUMER WORLD BY
ASSISTING BUSINESSES THAT WANT TO IMPROVE AND PROVIDE THE BEST CUSTOMER
SERVICE AVAILABLE

All businesses will get complaints from time to time.
All businesses will make mistakes. It's a fact of business life.
Smart and honest businesses know when to admit change is needed within
their organization and strive to make those changes. Those admissions
show and verify a businesses' commitment to make changes will earn the
respect of any consumer running across a Rip-off Report filed on a
business, producing new found business.

"No company or even government agency is perfect. That is why political
activists, and consumer advocacy groups like Rip-off Report are needed
to instigate public action for the betterment of our society. "
United States Assistant Attorney General

What was once only a theory is now a proven successful program...
The Corporate Advocacy Program resulted from businesses realizing that
they had made mistakes and were seeking a way to satisfy complaints and
make them good. Businesses began asking for Rip-off Report to become
involved and help them repair their past errors.

Corporate Advocacy Members have stated the following...

*Corporate Advocacy Program makes good business sense.

*CAP accomplishes what the Better Business Bureau BBB concept could
never do. BBB hides our mistakes and does not educate the consumer on how
we satisfied the complaint. Usually a BBB complaint is not settled for
the full amount, much less than what the consumer is owed. The BBB is
always on the side of their members, unless there is some adverse
publicity on the horizon, the BBB will give them an unsatisfactory rating.

*ED, your creation of this Program turned our business around.

*ED. I did not believe you when you said, "by doing this program, the
reports will turn a negative in to a positive and once that is done, we
will wish there were more Rip-off Reports on our business! Now I
understand what you were saying, it's true!

*The Corporate Advocacy Program helped employee morale as well as
improved our sales.

*Granted, we needed to make changes, but if it were not for Rip-off
Report Corporate Advocacy Program we would never have known what they
were.

*We might not have ever admitted there were problems unless we were
exposed like we were, we all need a little reality check one in a while.

Educating YOU, the consumer. What to look out for and what a reported
business has done or not done to improve customer satisfaction. This
goal is one of the most important reasons for the existence of Rip-off
Report. For those businesses that recognized they needed to make a change
and to improve their customer service, we developed the Corporate
Advocacy Business Remediation & Customer Satisfaction Program that will help
both the business and the consumer.

For the business, this program will turn the Rip-off Reports from a
negative into a positive and permanent advertisement. That is, IF the
business lives up to their stated commitment to customer satisfaction to
totally rectify all past and future complaints.

For the consumer, the Corporate Advocacy Program gives the confidence
they needed to do business with them. All consumers would want to do
business with someone that was honest enough to realize there might have
been some sort of a problem in the past, and now they are making things
right. Completely right and not the BBB way. We all make mistakes.
Again, all Businesses will make mistakes. How those businesses correct
their mistakes and make things right, separates good businesses from the
rotten ones.

Be sure to contact us about any business that is on the Corporate
Advocacy Program. Your questions, comments and suggestions are always
welcome and will be considered even if we don't agree with them. Please
realize Rip-off Report is charting new territory, working to make a long
overdue change for the consumer and business alike. We will make mistakes,
too. Please send us your input on how to improve this program.

BOTTOM LINE FOR BOTH THE CONSUMER AND THE REPORTED BUSINESS

Businesses enrolling in our program will address a perceived or
admitted wrong, and make it right upon verification of the complaint. All
legitimate verified complaints MUST be addressed. Bottom line. Your Bottom
line!

Millionaire families and various business from around Arizona mistreat
Immigrant workers..Violating their Civil & Human Rights

Famous TV talk show Host and clothing manufacture Kathy Lee Gifford
employs workers in foreign countries, more than 6,000 miles away form her
home in New York. This was an understandable situation. When these
underpaid and sweatshop like conditions were bought to her attention, she
corrected it. Her workers had a place to live and were not forced to
live out in the cold and rain in the middle of fields.. Unlike the workers
I have described below.

For over 25 years many Arizona families and local businesses have
illegally brought undocumented immigrants from Mexico to Arizona, working
them from sunrise to sundown (working their "huevos" off). The immigrants
are not able to pay for the bare necessities and end up living in
inhumane conditions.

These millionaire families and various business owners have been paying
the "Coyotes" (smugglers) to transport entire families to Arizona and
then forcing these families to repay the total cost of the smugglers'
fee ranging from $500 to $1,500 per person.

Why don't these immigrant workers leave?
We all know that life in Mexico for these migrant workers is not good.
They come here with dreams of being able to just feed their families
and the possibility of living a better life, ..like all immigrants that
came from Europe and elsewhere.

These Hispanic immigrants are all brought here being promised permanent
residency in the United States if they come and work hard, ...only to
be used, abused and exploited ... almost never getting any type of legal
status whatsoever that they were promised.

Some workers claim they are even sexually abused. Workers sometimes
never get paid at all. After they have worked for weeks, just working for
food, promissed they will be paid money, they are then threatened with
deportation if they do not continue.
