I have a complaint against Tempus Consulting.  We mailed payment via check for seven years. This company retains customer bank account information and produces ACH debits from customer accounts without authorization.
We are very alarmed. They have been legitimate, but their must  be a better way than to  - to make an analogy - than
to give everyone you do business with the keys to your house.

Started getting these calls a couple of weeks ago.  Answered the first time and respectfully declined. BUT, they call everyday!  When the # pops up on my caller ID, I just send to voice mail and they never leave a message.  One of these days, they'll stop trying.  I hope.

I'm a regular of this site, I'll be the first to yell at shill coming on here to try to further their scams; HOWEVER Tempus is a legitimate company. They handle wire transfers from one currency to another and offer better exchange rates than your bank will (same service as Amex FX Payments). Their nearly constant and unending cold call solicitations may make it seem like they're scammers, but they are a real company with a real service. I work at an international bi-lateral chamber of commerce, and unfortunately for Tempus, due to their infuriating sales tactics and constantly bothering us, none of our clients will ever be using them... ever.

I don't care who you are.  You need to stop annoying our company.  When we say we don't want your service.  Stop calling us.

They are a real company, not a scam.  They offer foreign currency exchange, my company has traded through them in the past with no issues; actually, they make the transactions easy.  FYI I do not work for them and am gaining nothing from this post outside of just quelling some of the outright lies posted above, no one deserves that.  Maybe they are calling you to offer services.  You really can not blame a legitimate company for reaching out to offer their services.

THESE MORONS WASTING TIME...BE AWARE OF SCAMS FROM 202 AREA..THESE JER...KS

Caller: 202 area code scams

Cold call, they have called our company many times and was told to take our number off their call list.  But when they called again today, I politely told "John" no thank you and hung up.  He then had the balls to call back.  I told him again, NO thank you and hung up.  He then proceeds to email my company info contact that I was so very rude and he did not deserve that kind of treatment and that it was a poor way to represent my company.   Well, John Hernandez, this is a poor way to represent your company. You will most certainly not get our company's business as well.

They are a real legitimate company- no clue what others are talking about. Look them up in Wall Street Journal, Bloomberg, etc.

They called me and it sounded like a typical Boiler Room operation. The guy read from a script and wanted me to send them money for foreign exchange. They were pretty aggressive, gave me the hard sell. No thanks! Go find another sucker.

These people are a scam. Use at your own risk.

Why are my Co-Workers sending their calls to me? I don't deal with telemarketing calls.

Those should be sent to eather Marketing, or Purchasing.

They are legit use them whenever we pay suppliers out of us better rates then ur bank

RECEIVED A CALL FROM 202 785 5534 - BEWARE THEY MIGHT FISHING.....

I've gotten a call from them, they're harmless. Basically they asked if we do payments in non USD currencies, then wanted to send me their card. They were definitely kind of annoying, but I found some financial articles on Reuters using them as a source and they seem fairly well known, plus the guy even sent me references and banking information on them, so I'm pretty sure they're legitimate.

This is Tempus Consulting; they claim to offer better exchnage rates for companies that send or receive cash overseas.  Don't know if they are a scam or not, but I don't like getting cold sales calls.

Asked if I have ever paid bills in NON-USD currency.  Weird and wouldn't tell me if its was a marketing call.
