This company is a scam that takes money from hard working small business owners. After not being able to receive funding, I asked them for the refund that they guaranteed they would give. They told me funds would be returned to me no later than October 11th. Here we are in December and still no refund. I have called and left voicemails and sent emails every day since the 11th and nobody answers. I have turned them into the BBB and have gotten an attorney.
They sounded legit on the call. I completed all the requested info and sent to them within 24 hours. They stated that it would take from 4-6 weeks after submitting business plan to Feds to know whether accepted or rejected. They also stated that my fee would be refunded if a grant was not approved.
A MONTH later they emailed me the business plan. I signed off on it the same day I received it, over 6 weeks ago now, and have heard NOTHING from grants.
Now I cannot get Funding Target to answer my calls!!!!! Beginning to think this is a scam/ripoff.
We paid them $289 in March, gave them all info they asked for within 24hrs. They would give us a date of when we would receive a list of grants to apply to and would ghost us. After a month of no answers, no return phone calls or returned emails they gave us a new rep. He did the samething! Kept pushing back the date that he would supply us with grants and when he finally gave us a list (which consisted of 6) none of them even had grants! Again we were ghosted, no return calls or emails after we were told the problem would be rectified. Finally after 4 months of nothing but headache and aggravation, we asked for our money back. They lied and said they had full conversations with us which never happened and then tried to say that they sent us an email which never happened. Afterbasking for a refund, we were told that they went above and beyond looming for grants which they didn’t have to do…thats literally what we paid you for!!! Stay clear of these scamming morans!!
I tried working with this company several times started May 2021. They gave me the run around for 7 months. Jim Austin is a scam artist and so is his manager Chris. Chris asked me why I wanted a refund and proceeded to speak over me.
He tried to bully me into not getting a refund. My husband had to put him in his place and let him know he was wrong with customer service and to quit speaking over me where he sat their and listened to my husband the whole time with no interruption.
This company does not meet deadlines, are not professional, makes excuses and do not get anything done, they are bullies and huge scammers. Please do not waste your time or money on this company it’s not worth the tears.
Thank God I read the reviews before I gave this company a chance, the thought of losing 200 for no success or accomplishment of getting the help business owners need, it is my best interest to keep it moving to another company.
I sent a payment to this company. I’m a single mother with a rising business in this Hard time. I spoke with a really nice lady on the phone everything seemed so promising and even looked up the website. All for them to take my money and not respond. As hard as times are with the virus and everything it’s very disappointing that they would do something like this to a small business. I have tried calling and emailing. No response. Please just be very careful people do not give these ppl your money !
At FundingTarget, we understand the process in applying professionally before deadline dates is difficult. When setting up your file a receipt is immediately emailed to you for you to take care of.

FundingTarget customers rely on us and we are working hard every day especially during this time of uncertainty surrounding COVID-19 to make sure the system is fully operational and running smoothly. We look forward to assisting you.
The pattern is the same. No answer or return call after they take the $217.00. I will be reporting. Never mind, our Justice System is basically useless and they love these kind of schemes
On 12/03/2019, I paid $217 for the “Full Solution” business plan package. I received my first and only draft on 12/17/2019. I submitted my revisions that very night per their instructions. I followed up with a phone call on 12/27/2019 as I still had not received my revision and I was told that I would have it on 12/31/2019.
However, as of writing this review it has now been 18 business days (excluding Christmas Eve, Day, New Years Eve, Day) and I still do not have my revision.
In fact, I’ve left 2 voicemails and submitted an email and they have ignored all of my communications. I have requested a refund and they have ignored that request as well.
All I have is a revision of a business plan that has a watermark all over it in PDF form. I have nothing else and this company has failed to deliver on what I’ve paid for.
I’ve submitted a dispute with my credit card company and I’m filing complaints with my State’s Attorney General and also filing a VA complaint as I am a Veteran as well.
Do yourselves a favor and absolutely DO NOT use this company!!! Clearly they’re in the business of ripping people off!

Contacted this company to assist with starting a new company in July. I did get a draft sent to me but it was full of junk not ever related to my industry. After calling over and over for a month I finally reached someone and Requested to talk to some one about getting it fixed. It is now December And no corrections, no calls to me , And no answers To my calls .
Taking money from people that are needing assistance is shameful.

I signed up as I believe this company can help me for my business funding. The advisors and customer service representatives are helpful. Customer service is accommodating and helpful. I have recommended their services to several people already. I received the documents and they were excellent.
The real question Jhett is are you a paid reviewer for this company because your statement is generic and you didn’t state whether or not you actually received funding.

I paid $217.00 for their services a all of the grant information was outdated.
