closeRALEIGH -- An Arizona company that charged North Carolinians advance fees to apply for credit cards must refund consumers' money and quit making illegal telemarketing calls, the state Attorney General's Office said Wednesday.
Consumers who paid Premier Nationwide Corp. a fee to get a credit card or for help improving their credit have until the end of the year to seek a full refund. The arrangement was filed this week.
Premier also does business as Premier Savings and Premier Savings Consultant. Consumers who did business with Premier since April 15, 2004, and want their money back should call the attorney general's consumer protection division at 877-566-7226 by Dec. 31.
