Hey David. I wouldn’t hold your breath waiting for that money. You can see clearly here that Ben Cannon, GPal CEO, has better things to do with his time then get your check cut.

You should file the complaint irregardless of whether you get your check or not. GPal is still taking people’s money and is without a means to disburse it electronically. They’ve held on to your money for a very long time and have created a hardship for your business.

Ben Cannon has handled this whole affair criminally with complete contempt for his customers and needs to be held accountable. His continued misrepresentation of his business and their various “misfortunes” needs to be stopped.

I would like to comment. My company began using gpal after I could no longer use PayPal.

The first three transactions were handled well. Beginning June 1st, funds have not been transferred to my bank account. I have been incontact with Chad of G-pal who informed me that a check in the amount of $3,800 would be mailed to me within 48 hours. I am waiting in hopes that I will receive the check as promised. If I do not receive the check by week’s end, I plan to file a complaint at http://www.ic3.gov or contact Detective James Naugh at Petaluma P.D. 707-565-2185 to file a fraud complaint.

Best wishes to everyone.

Kevin, they’re claiming that they will mail you a check if you ask them to. No one’s got one yet but it’s worth a shot. They told us that they were going to fix the transfer problems on the 14th but that date came and went with no updates or solution. Now we’ve all got to play the “your check is in the mail” game with them.

GPal has no ability to disburse funds electronically. They need to indicate this on their website and, most importantly, they need to STOP TAKING PEOPLE’S MONEY!!! If they’d handled this problem like men instead of scamming little weasels we wouldn’t be seeing this explosion of anger we’re seeing now. That’s not how Ben operates however.

And yes, Ben Cannon is a liar and a fraud. I defended him and his company when his LE impersonation case broke but I think we’ve all seen a new side of him. Search the internet and you’ll find other accounts of his previous scams. His own lies and they way he’s misrepresented his company during this disaster have been the most damning however.

Gpal has screwed us out of $1800 that has never been sent to our checking account beginning 6-29-10. They will not return phone calls, answer our emails or deposit our money into our account after almost 3 weeks. I am totally discussed with their service. I am also hearing there are several other companies this has happened to recently. As for the alleged incident involving Mr Canon and the LE impersonation I would not doubt it a bit considering how he runs his business. I will never use them again. I can only hope and pray we get our $1800 back but I seriously doubt it will happen!

I just spoke to the FTC @ 1-877-382-4357 and they said they’re the ones who need to know about this, call them and speak to an agent. Please pass this information around.

I’ll never again do business with Comerica Bank.

They appear to have some sort of personal vendetta against anyone in the 2A movement – or at least once their corporate officers in Detroit, MI get wind of you.

My company got a FedEx Saturday delivery from them – saying GET OUT by Tuesday because we are closing your account. WHY? Because you signed an agreement saying we could terminate you anytime we want. And we want to.

Sorry to hear GunPal got burned by them as well. From what I heard several 2A folks have been burned by Comerica lately.

GunPal has $1500+ of my money lost in limbo.

From their latest email to me:

"On June 07 2010 we received notification from a 3rd party service provider that some customer withdrawals had been held without our knowledge or consent. That same day GPal executives followed up and received written confirmation that the withdrawals had been fully processed. On June 08 2010 we received another notification that our 3rd party service provider had indeed NOT processed the customer withdrawals as promised. GPal is terminating the relationship with this 3rd party provider. The entity holding your funds is Comerica Bank. GPal is working constantly to insure your funds make their destination, and we apologize profusely for this gross and egregious failure to deliver. We are currently working on alternate options for payment as we speak."

I have to retract my comments and apologize to GunPal (gpal). I have been freaking out over not getting password resets or payment confirmation emails and it turns out the whole problem was my AT&T email sending them to a spam folder on their server. I work out of Outlook and have never looked at the on line account but there they were, everything I needed from them and more. AT&T did that without any changes from me so it’s something to research but again, Sorry Gpal.
