A CBC Blood Test or Complete Blood Count is used to Monitor Your Health
A CBC will sometimes be ordered by your doctor to monitor your health, watch out for indications of disease direction and side effects of treatment
But do you really need a “Complete Blood Count” for your structured settlement payments at Halloween?
Get your Cash Today?
- You will notice that “cash now pusher” Covered Bridge Capital Settlement Funding (CBC Settlement Funding) boldly claims you can “get your cash today!” in an advertisement that accompanies its press release announcing the strategic relocation of its corporate HQ from Blue Bell to Conshohocken, Pennsylvania.
- Any reasonable person reading this could be misled to believe that you can make the call and get your money wired into your account today.
- Structured settlement factoring transactions must be approved by a Court as being in your best interest and that of your dependents.
- There are liens searches, forms to fill out and sign, and you need to be able to articulate your reasons for cashing out.
- Even if all the forms were filled out today, there is still a wait to get a Court date.
- Some cash now pushers offer a small amount ( e.g. $2,000) to tide you over, but that is not what the CBC Settlement Funding advertising implies, does it?
CBC Presents a Distinctive Character Narrative in Its Press Release, Highlighting Humanity as Both Designation and Ethical Principle
William J. Skyrm, former in-house counsel for “The Bryn Mawr Bunch- JG Wentworth, is listed as a Principal, while another JG Wentworth alum James Goodman, is described as a “Principle”. To those old enough to remember, this may cue visions of “Shimmer”, the fictional Saturday Night Live product touted by Chevy Chase to be both a floor wax AND a dessert topping.
The “principle” that leads a company, like CBC Settlement Funding, to the use of false cash now advertising is not a very good start, in my opinion. The company’s use of “cash today” is egregious.
If you have a structured settlement, need cash and you have exhausted other options, there are plenty of companies in the factoring industry that are both competitive and do not falsely advertise.
And, if you need a CBC, go see your doctor!
