Fees for license hold service not clearly explained.
The representative who answered my call was nice and explained costs associated with placing my real estate license on hold. I thought I was being quoted the total required cost for a one year period. So, I paid the fee. About two months later; I received a new bill for the same amount that I had initially paid. So, I called to inquire about being charged for the same service, only a few months apart. The representative informed me that I had initially paid nearly $100 for only 2 months of service because the company does not pro-rate fees. As such, I was being billed again for the same amount, but this time it would cover a one year period. I was very disappointed, and felt like I had been taken. Had I known that I was paying a full year's fee for 2 months of coverage, I would have waited to start the hold service. What occurred seems dishonest. I will probably search for another office that offers the same service at a similar cost.
