Business ProfileforAdesso Capital

This review is specifically about Adesso Capital in regard to its FFCRA product. I received a dubious piece of mail at my business location from Adesso Capital suggesting that I was entitled to a significant tax credit. The quoted number just over twenty thousand dollars and the document claimed that I was probably unaware that I was owed these funds, claiming "we are dedicated to simplifying the process of securing FFCRA tax credits rightfully owed to self-employed individuals like yourself." One of the first giveaways that something was wrong, is that Adesso never shared its fees upfront, and they are not readily accessible on the website. Perhaps they are buried in the terms and conditions of using the product? In any case, I did not see them. If you are running a reputable business, there is no reason to obscure your fees, especially if you are "dedicated" to helping small business owners who are "owed these funds". In order to submit the owed tax credit application, it was necessary to pay a $150 fee. I was OK with this, as a one time fee. After paying, I noticed that it was intentionally confusing if my payment to Adesso was now complete. As I added more information to the portal, the amount of money I was estimated to receive rapidly diminished. It was suggested that I pay more fees to complete my filing. Again, the total fee Adesso would take from whatever tax credit I *might* receive was not mentioned. At this point, I had a series of correspondences with Adesso employees through their customer service email. In a similar pattern, ******* pushed me to make payments while being vague and avoidant in response to direct questions about their fee structure. In my final email to their customer service I wrote,"So another $150 in order to hopefully receive a credit/ refund check of 450?Effectively paying $300 in admin fees to receive $150 (450-300 =150)? "A form email response confirmed my suspicion. This company is not a friend to small business owners.
