Ecoamerica

This company advertises in help wanted sections of newspapers nationwide, offering PC owners the opportunity to start a home based business doing medical billing. Startup costs associated with the offer may vary. Because this company is not actually offering employment, its advertising practices are deceptive and misleading. In reality, they sell software, and does not assist the buyer past the point of the sale transaction. Complaints about similar offers allege dissatisfaction with the content of materials, misrepresentation of the offer or difficulty obtaining refunds. Complainants generally receive physician listings that are outdated, incorrect, or out of their service area. They also report verbal representations of unfulfilled promises for clients or difficulty understanding the software. When considering offers of this nature, we advise against paying by check or money order. We also believe it is a mistake to place too much reliance on the company's money back guarantee or refund policy. Our experience with other companies shows that the companies do not honor their guarantees and often fail to make refunds. If you decide to purchase the software, we strongly suggest that you pay by credit card. If the company fails to live up to its committment, the charge can be disputed. Remember, that none of the companies provide doctors as clients for their service. It is up to the buyer of the software to find clients for their business.
