      I kept it no secret that I am deeply in love with these ads. Today, it was difficult to speed forward, and I had to endure some info on stocks before I could get to the meat of the vid. Very disgruntled at present.

        “Are you gonna sue me?”

        “Am I going to SUE you?”

        “Yeah, I just hit you with my microphone.”

        That was the best.

          Sounds good, so long as we really do get that unique spiral slicer…

              Hair looks great. New conditioner?

              I own a business and I wish there was a way around legal fees. Unfortunately, the only thing more expensive than high-priced lawyers are cheap ones. Sometimes you get what you pay for.

                Thank you for bringing up the whole Harland suing first thing. When asked about that in 2003 by that Business Week reporter, the company answered on his behalf with “He can’t recall….”

                He can’t recall? The whole company was founded on a lie. Harland sued first.

                  This video is not only hilarious, it is right on target. The genial Mr. Stonecipher is not only a CONVICTED Fraud (along with the company itself) but a three-times-caught TAX cheat to boot! SO if his lawyers are so wonderful, why couldn’t they advise him how to NOT get caught cheating on his taxes or defrauding his customers? Hmmmm? Maybe if asked he’d just say “I don’t recall.”

                  PS: Re finding more customers and reps..for TWO QUARTERS IN A ROW now the company’s seen FALLING sales (11% and 2%) and PLUMMETING Recruiting of new reps (32% & 38%) so…the clock may be running out on this con game.

                    Hey bitchsay cambell, How much money do you make per year? And tell me something, why hate on something you have no clue what you are talking about. The stock went up since this ad went up because you just made our reason of what we are doing more real, because those people you talk to aren’t even educated about the legal system. And yes, everything is cover, it jt just depends on if its cover under Title1-4 or its the 25% discount. I have use all areas and it save me thousands of legal fees. And who else do you know have 24 hour access to the law firm under certain conditions? And Lifelock give me a break. I would go into details but I wouldn’t even go there with you lifelock.

                      My first encounter with “Wallstrip” did not leave me with a particularly favorable impression, due to the fact that Lindsay was bashing the company I represent. I have to say that, while humorous and cute, this lady is not to be taken seriously as a journalist, given that her article was full of innuendo, inaccuracies, and an obvious misunderstanding of the Pre-Paid Legal business model. Had she bothered to do some real research, she would have found that any corporation is based on a “pyramid” model where those at the top benefit from the efforts of those on the bottom. Unlike traditional corporate models, however, with Pre-Paid Legal associates, it is in the best interest of those in the know to help those just starting out on how to market the plans, which by the way, do protect the consumer from many day to day legal issues, despite her breezy comments to the contrary. Not everything is covered by the plan, but a 25% discount is available on all other services, and the attorney is required to call you back, unlike some traditional situations where you have paid a large retainer and are now playing the waiting game. Regarding retention, it has been shown that those who actually use the service, prepare their will, contact an attorney for advice, etc., are more likely to keep the plan, and the company is improving its customer service in this area. The stock has also been victim to short selling, another point she conveniently overlooks in her effort to be funny. In short, when Lindsay is actually making a six figure income from home part time, then I might be willing to accede her greater credibility. Until then, maybe the comedy channel on XM radio will give her a job.

                        for me please???

                          hey dude,

                          the short sell gravy train just went bust…

                          go get yo’ cryin’ towel!

                            It’s apparent this so called reporter doesn’t know what she’s talking about. Pre-Paid Legal is not a scam, nor is it a pyramid scheme. With pyramid schemes it’s impossible to surpass the person who brought you into the business. This isn’t so with Pre- Paid Legal. Corporate America is more of a pyramid scheme. The president and CEO’s are making all the money while their subordinates are doing all the work and barely getting enough money to take care of their family. There are so many things I could say to dispute and tear apart every negative comment this so called reporter has made, but I really don’t feel like typing for that long. Bottom line, Pre-Paid Legal Services is helping lot’s of families and businesses. We are an open book and we cover every legal situation. Some things are covered at no additional cost and some things fall under the 25% discount and that’s revealed from the very beginning. We don’t need to lie about services, nor do we need to over sell it. It’s a great product. When you have something that’s life changing and can help people, and new, t’s first ridiculed, violently opposed and then self-evident. Pre-Paid Legal will be a house hold name in the next few years, and everybody will want to have it. Remember, people opposed the microwave, cell phone, cable, etc. So you nay sayers believe what you want. All others, don’t judge or listen to others, check it out for yourself.

                              I love watching blissful ignorance in full swing, and that was the most comically slanderous material I have ever viewed, especially a company of which provides a services that has saved my tail several times.

                              Now what High School project was that for? I bet your teachers are very proud of your efforts in wanting to be a real reporter someday. Just a thought, next time you do a high school report like this you might want to spend a little more than 20min investigating a company to ensure that you have all of the facts surrounding said company and the product or service it provides.
                              – I mean just a thought.

                              But thank you for the comedy routine, very entertaining, perhaps that is a direction you should try, I hear SNL is always looking for fresh talent.

                                It’s funny to see all the PPL folks getting bent out of shape. You’re so brainwashed you can’t even see the facts before you. Sure the stock is up, but your company is going backwards. Less memberships are being sold, and less people are being recruited. Less advance commissions means profits are up, hence the stock is up. As sales continue to fall however the stock will follow.

                                  That was hilarious! AND true!

                                  No offense to PPL believers — it’s really not even a good product at all. I was reading about it because I thought it sounded you know — pretty cheap for lawyers. But then realized that there was actually a small section, pretty much called, “read the fine print” section that basically helped me understand that PPL can’t do nothing for you. Help me read papers and talk to someone for as low as $20 bucks? Isn’t that great? Don’t we have parents to do that for us? Maybe even a stranger. You should read more on how much PPL is ripping off many families. More than 50% memberships cancel. As for the rest of the ones who actually stay in the membership are truly “criminals when they were born” or they completely forgot that they had PPL and didn’t give a damn about it. Okay, maybe like one or two people used it. There are a bunch of lies. I researched and yes I have brochures about it as well. I discovered it was a pyramid scheme before I even knew what PPL was. I believe PPL will not be a household name unless we live in a place where we all need to call a quick lawyer and get our papers reviewed. Oh, by the way, did you know that about 60% of people get divorced in this world? Who’s going to take care of that? And some of those getting divorced might have children and want custody. Who’s going to take care of that too? More than half the population have these problems and who takes care of all these issues? How about the fact that one person deals with alcohol accidents every 15-20 minutes? Drugs are also issues that happen almost every ten minutes or something. Who takes care of these issues considering PPL doesn’t cover any of this? State the obvious — not PPL. The stock is so called “high” because of the pyramid. Don’t you get it? If people get people to get people to get people to sell a product they don’t even know about, can you say “That’s where the money and stocks come from?”. Great! It’s a ripoff and it’s not that hard to see unless you are completely oblivious to it and completely naive. No, the stocks don’t go high every week. Recruit more = high stocks. Recruit less = low stocks. See the pattern here? It all goes down to one word: greed. No, not true. A couple words actually. Greed, pride, fake, scheme, etc.

                                  Everyone else: I agree.

                                  P.S.
                                  Please notice how most people disagree than agree with PPL. This already shows that our point was proven. More people will drop PPL than take it. Thank You.

                                    Ha!
                                    Does Wallstrip expect us to ever believe them when they are advertising a competitor through out their “investigative report”?
                                    Lifelock was started by a crook who thought of a slightly more legit way to rob you with his con of “preventing ID theft”. Nothing can prevent it, even that guy showing off his SS# was victimized shortly after his ad came out… Yet they still give the BS that they can prevent it.
                                    Also,Experian has documented that the service can damage your credit report!!
                                    So Remember… Wallstrip is here… NOT to serve you, but to make a buck with sensationalism!
