Christian Media Services Trail blazers Media Steals money from Church Fort Worth, Texas

16th of Aug, 2011 by User144331

Our church, Pentecostal Tabernacle Church of God in Christ, is located in Beloit Wisconsin. We were contacted via phone by Charlene Hamilton (accomplice) and Eric Hamilton to participate in a church marketing and public relations opportunity. Eric explained that his company, Christian Media Services, was offering a FREE production of a commerical ad to be aired on the BET network during the Sunday's Best program. He further explained that the church would only be responsible for paying for the air time. We agreed and proceeded with working with Eric to produce the commerical. We paid Eric a total of $950 only to have our money stolen and no ad aired on BET. The first night the ad was to air was July 10, 2011. Needless to say our ad did not air. We contacted Eric concerning this only to be lied to. He stated that their was an engineering "glitch" with the cable company. We were offered a consolation package of other commercial ads on various networks such as Bravo, ABC Family, etc. However, our executive board was not happy and thus rejected the consolation offer and demanded, in writing, a refund of our $950. Eric did not respond to the (4) emails that were sent to him demanding a refund. His phone number and the number of his wife, Charlene were also disconnected. Eric was reached on an alternate number and he lied stating that he, in fact, did respond to the emails and did process the refund. None of this was true. We have not heard from ERic or received our money. We have contacted the Better Business Bureau who is reviewing our case. Any church who is contacted by this company who also goes by teh name Trail blazers media...Do not do business with him..he is a liar and a scammer and uses God and the church to take advantage of for his selfish gain.
