Lyncrest Media Lead Provider
Just the facts; this is what happened.
When I signed up with Lyncrest Media, I was really looking forward to starting. It sounded like a perfect situation. It was a few days before Christmas and the rep informed me that they had a deal going on. In order to get the deal they were offering, I had to pay $4,000.00 that day. I went ahead and got the payment processed. I began receiving appointments a little over a week into January 2022. Most of the appointments were 'no shows' but some were 'shows'.
The 'showed' appts either did not qualify for a mortgage at all, or were very complex with their job history and/or had large employment gap issues; and/or only qualified for loan amounts under $150,000.00. When I expressed concern about the amount of no shows and lead quality, I was spoken to as though I was not selling effectively (which was obviously erroneous given the fact that no one I spoke with qualified for a loan in the first place).
I decided in any case to give it a little more time.
Unfortunately, by the time I realized what I was actually dealing with, I was already out $4,000.00. I canceled the service (because it was either pay the 'early cancelation fee' of 2k or lose another 4k).
According to my boss, other loan originators in my office had the same experience and also canceled early. Apparently the other originators lost even more money than I did because they stuck with it for longer.
