Max Melrose of IAB is a *** artist and a convicted Felon!

Max Melrose of IAB, told me that Beech Street is the company that provides the first level of discount for all health issues, and then IAB provides further discounts on the health insurance he's selling. He also made me record certain statements into their system in response to voice prompts that would come up every few seconds. He prepared me for these by telling me that what the voice prompts say and what they mean are two different things. I went for it, resulting in my saying what he wanted into their recording device over the phone. I realized afterward, that this is how they protect themselves legally against getting caught for fooling their customers. I also got on the Internet and read many negative reviews about this company, including that Max Melrose is a convicted felon! When I called Beech Street and asked about IAB, they said they'd never heard of them. I immediately called my bank, and had them cancel my credit card, and issue a new one. The next day, I called IAB and canceled the insurance, and requested a refund. Although I also put in a dispute with my bank, I did receive the refund from IAB for the entire amount, including the $15.95 charge, 8 calendar days after the cancellation. This was 4 days before they said I would see it, so I was pretty happy. The total received was for about $190. This guy is really slick and has an answer for almost any question you could ask him. My policy was supposed to cover me for over 70% of the billed amount for hospital charges, surgeries, etc, for a premium of only $85 a month! What a pipe dream! I have diabetes, and other health issues, and the last quote I got from a real insurance company was a monthly premium of $1,200! So, just remember. As much as you'd like to believe someone, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is! Don't let smooth talking Max Melrose rip you off!

I looked on the internet and the company I ask for a quote which was Principle Health Care called me and all of a sudden I realize I'm with a company called IAB after they e-mailed me paper work and I had paid them for the first month. This is a scam and when I called them several times...I have not gotten a return call yet.

My son is an attorney and I'm going to see what I can do about this company. I think it sounds like a lot of switch and bait.

Going under one name because the real company name has so many complaints against them. I will update this when I get my phone calls and refund returned to me.

Anyone know how to get in touch with Max Melrose. I was scammed by him years ago. I need to send him a summons to appear in court.
