Do you want the truth about World Financial Group, now rebranding themselves as Transamerica Financial Advisers????? I was in the trenches with this company for many years and I know firsthand the truth behind this company. What do they really do? They sell you a...

Ohh goodness! you really took time and wrote such a long list of why WFG was not a successful opportunity for you!

All I can say is not about the firm itself but how you perform and apply what you learn during all those trainings!!!!

of course you need training, in any other business you'll see the same, but what you have done with that knowledge???? if nothing then yes, you gonna be frustrated like this!

A good opportunity to teach Financial Literacy to my Community

4.3
HappyWFG has availed me an opportunity to learn various personal financial concepts and pass on the knowledge to low income and immigrant communities. I feel that I finally found my purpose. To those that want to join sales thou, nothing good in life comes on a silver plate. Freedom of any type (include financial), has a price. either ha

User's recommendation: They have some of the best performing financial companies in the world.

WFG = SCAM

1.0
To Whom It Might Concern and Anyone Who is Interested in Joining WFG: I joined WFG and followed the steps to create a profile and had access to WFG's platform. Had no idea with zillions of hidden fees until wanted to terminate my agent access and wanted to get out. I have never used the website to transact a single transaction on WFG's platform. When requested for the platform associated with my agent code to be terminated and closed down, hidden fees fell out from the dark and got updated/racked up overnight. THIS IS NOT ONLY UNETHICAL BUT ALSO SUSPECTED AS A SCAM AND ILLEGAL BUSINESS. When

User's recommendation: IF YOU JOIN WFG- MOST LIKELY YOU WILL REGRET IT JUST LIKE ME.

POSSIBLE SCAM

1.0
Hello, To anyone of you have read this comment. I highly suggest you save your time and resources for something else. It could be *** of a SCAM in here with this WFG. You will be dealing with so much hidden fees and you will run for the hill.

User's recommendation: DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH WFG OR ITS ASSOCIATE - BE CAREFUL. COULD BE SCAM.

2.0
I paid in some money that I was supposed to pay and so was calling to request a refund. Unfortunately, they were able to link me to a live agent and i had to drop the call

User's recommendation: they are never going to link you with a live agent so don't waste your time listening to options.

Never received my 1099 from 2018.

5.0
My MD or *** never gave me my 1099 from 2018 because they were sent to Office address, and they didn't bother to sent them to my home address or tell me to pick them up. So now the IRS is wondering how come I didn't file in 2018. Well, these 2 selfish lying *** are dirty (Vangie Gallagoes, and Marylou I., and thought it would be funny to throw away any mail that came to me at the office. I need a WFG agent or whoever handles 1099 to call me ASAP (661-772-**** or email me a copy or mail me an original 1099. According to IRS they had been sending letters that I never received. I quit the business cause of them. I would never recommend anyone to join "Destiney Builders" cause if you ain't oriental you ain't shit.

User's recommendation: Never join destiney buillders unless you're oriental.

Unable to speak to live customer service personnel

1.0
My up-line does not help me to retrieve some information, so I tried to connect with WFG customer support directly. I tried all extensions, but they are all recordings and unable to speak to a live CS with every single extension. They are supportive ONLY when they make you become a member and collect money. This business is a scam.

User's recommendation: Never recommend.
