Hello. My ID with WFG is ******. Last July I spoke to this girl regarding insurance and was talked into registering for WFG without knowing anything about the company and what it does and by the time they told me I had to pay 400$ upfront to start with WFG I was too awkward to refuse to proceed forward and paid the price anyway. However, over the past year I did more research about the company and I realized this is not the right path for me to pursue and would like at least a partial refund to my credit card for my 400$ since this is nothing more but a scam to me, and also I want all my personal details deleted from the WFG database or any third party related to this company. ****** ******. Thank you.World Financial Group Insurance Agency Of Canada Inc. Response

On Sep 19, 2024, I was misinformed into paying a $169.50 sign up fee to WFG Canada, but after a call today on Sep 20, 2024, I felt uncomfortable and confused about this company, so I researched about the company and I have decided that WFG is not the right fit for me. I think it's fair and right that I get my full refund of $169.50 for a sign up to attend online training classes since it's only been 2 days and I didn't logged into their wfg launch due to some system error. I also saw that I received a docusign paper where the paper of agreement is already signed in behalf of me and I had the option only to review it. I want my hard earned money refund back to me ASAP, also I want all my personal details deleted from the WFG database or any third party related to this company.World Financial Group Insurance Agency Of Canada Inc.

Hi. Recently, I was met by one of a recruiters through the ******** network. During our telephone meeting, he never mentioned the name of the company to me until our last **** conference where he told me about WFG. I had heard the name only once before in one of the conferences he recommended I attend. While doing my research, I realized that WFG ** *********, which is a slightly different business model from what was approached to me by the agent in question. I was forced to pay CA$172.46. It was very rushed and I didn't really have a choice in answering Yes. I was very uncomfortable. I would like a full refund. Have a nice day.World Financial Group Insurance Agency Of Canada Inc.

On Thursday,April 6, 2023 I paid $169.50 CAD to WFG for the sign up fee and I would like a full refund. I felt uncomfortable during the sign up process. I signed up on **** and I was not informed there was a registration fee before the **** call. Things happened so quick and after I paid the fee I felt mislead. I won't be moving forward with WFG in any way. That is why I would like a full refund.Review from Rajwinder K

On January 31, 2023, i was misinformed into paying 157.50 for a license, and i gave them my credit card details. I did some research and realized that WFG isn't right for me, and I would like a refund for my $157.50, as I have not attended any of the orientations, classes or meetings. I would also like any of my personal details deleted form their database. I was never informed that there was a no-refund policy.Review from Raistlin v

I attended a seminar of this firm and while a small portion was on financial literary, they mostly focused on the business aspect of the firm. I did purchase an insurance plan, and was interested in the business side of things. I did get a small glimpse of the environment when I attended an event with my friend.Review from Ladeen S.

On Feb 7th, I was approached by a friend to attend their Financial Literacy Campaign as it was a great opportunity to learn various financial tools and learn principles help me start and run a business. (i.e tax refunds, people mgt etc). As a business owner, I was so excited about this opportunity to grow.
After the meeting, I was approached by an MD, on the opportunity to join WFG and thru this I will be given more tools, in addition to their 5 workshops, that I needed to achieve financial growth & also start a business. After joining, I realized the agent had ************ never clarified that they only provide tools to start a WFG business not "a business" like agent had said. I attended some of their Saturday workshops, & its just their MDs talking about 3-3-30 & how grateful they are for WFG and how lavish their life is now - nothing about financial literacy is ever discussed. Big red flag if you see this.
Furthermore, the agent walked me through the basic foundations to achieve financial growth i.e protection, AM, EF & Investment. The agent advised me to set up an UL. In this UL, agent didn't provide me access to my iA account for over month only to realise that Im active and this insurance company was billing me 310 cad a month. A day after, finally being given access to the policy account and full contract, I noticed it was a ******* policy set up for failure in the future.
Please be careful, these guys are very vague in their operations and will take advantage of you. Be mindful of illustrations provided for their products as the info is not realistic. They will draw you in with the goal you recruit others, just like any MLM, whilst ***** their goal is to spread financial literacy. They will have meetings with you to talk about personal financial strategy to lure in to ******* investment products so they can earn commission.
I'm hereby requesting, my registration fee of $157.50 CAD, UL premiums of 620 CAD and all my info be deleted of your system.
