FARS Customer Testimonials
  • Our bad check headaches, aggravation, and
    collection problems have disappeared due to FARS.
    We used to lose not only money, but time, bank
    fees, and cash flow. Now FARS does the leg work
    for us, and its success rate has been fantastic.
    Best of all, we dont have to worry about chasing
    people downno embarrassment or hurt feelings. We
    dont lose customers because were not caught in
    the middle.
  • We recommend this service to anyone looking for
    a quick and convenient way to collect on returned
    checks. It has relieved our staff from many
    headaches and has proven to provide desired
    results.
  • Bank fees for uncollectible checks were eating
    into my profits, so I decided to stop accepting
    checks altogether, which cost us lost sales. Then
    I was referred to FARS Marketing. With its
    incredible collection rate I am accepting checks
    once more in ALL my locations and have
    recommended this service to all my business
    friends.
  • We have been extremely pleased with FARS. They
    handle everything from the time the check does
    not clear. This eliminates us from having to make
    phone calls, track down customers, and receive
    payments for services performed. I would highly
    recommend this service.
  • Our previous check verification service placed
    an undue burden on our employees. With FARS, I
    not only receive the face amount of the check but
    I also receive money for each check collected.
  • With FARS, I get an email notification report on
    the status of every outstanding check, and our
    controller can access their Web site at any time
    to review status. I have been extremely
    pleased.
