Default Announcement from Global Mutual

Quote:
Hello everybody,

Thankyou for being so patient.

Global Mutual is online again, but will be up and down for a few days.

We will be moving this site to a ddos protected site shortly.

In the meantime, login, check details but please be patient.

last I heard we were taking 30,000 hits a minute.

coming soon:

A new independant Global Exchange

Global Shopping as promised

Better leads attraction for payed up members.

A shares based addition accessible only from the members area.

A bluechip standard Conservative investment site at www.global-mutual.biz (online now)(not a hyip)

A fantastic new finance product with a cashcard attached, billpayer, atm access, and many features.

I am so sorry for all the delays. About a week to full steam ahead again.

Special Need to help launch the AUSSIE Mutual Advance Finance Campaign!

We need 15,000 USD now, and $20,000 in two weeks

will pay 27.5%p.a. paid monthly(Capital Gauranteed) and if left invested 3 years to company listing, then double the deposit returned as well. Possibly better interest, but that is the minimum commitment of Global Mutual.



Gordon m Doherty

Senior Administrator

Global Mutual Inc


With regard to the last part of this announcement, I hope the lack of the needed cash will not stymie the program.

I like the fact that they agreed to a DD request and allowed their pictures and IDs to be posted publicly. I think I'll be investing more here if they stabilize in the next few months.

I agree with you FG. Now if I could only get them to send me a "correct" password so I can login! I have been in contact with Gordon about this problem so I am really not concerned, just frustrated. A little more stability would definitely help.

Grrr. It's all a mess! I can access both the home page and cafe/forum. However I can not use the activation link for the new PW I request for the forum because it directs me to "page not found". Went to homepage, clicked on forum and once there tried using the activation link, but goes to "404".
No matter how many times I have requested a PW for the homepage, I never get one.
Any suggestions?
Guess I'll send off another "Support" request..... BAH.

Some news:

Quote:
GLOBAL MUTUAL INCORPORATED is undergoing some major improvements. Please be patient whilst code is loaded over the next few days.


The site is up, but there is no coding on the following subjects:
>Venture Capital Share Portfolio
>E Currency Exchange Service
>Global Sentinel Internet Services
>HYI Portfolio
>Global Mutual Corporate Co-operative
>Global Mutual Online Shopping

For current members, you can access your account, and review your deposits, make w/d etc. I did notice some of the interest rates in the VC Shares investments have changed. I'm headed to the forum to check out what has been posted about this and the new services, if anything.

So much growing pains with this program. Can't post to the forum either because the scripting isn't finished. I thought all the previous scripting was ok; I think Gordon is being taken for a ride by someone who wants to make it all look "professional".
I'm not going to invest any further until they stablize the invesstment plans rates, AND communicate when/why rates are subject to change.

My opinion of course, but I think it's long past the 'growing pains' stage. The only bad thing about this fund has been the interface -from day one; poor communications and frequent site problems. I havren't looked lately but there are/were too many investment options, a few of which overlapped or devalued each other. I have no doubt that many like me have not invested because of those reasons, which is too bad because it has been stable and quite transparent. I won' t invest in a program that is needlessly complicated (I don't mean hard to understand) and can't respond to inquiries. I don't understand why they haven't dealt with that a long time ago. They would likely be overflowing with cash by now if they had...

MOREMOE:
I think this is all entirely true. I know that the admin Gordon does have some health issues that bring delays to the development of the program and website. But from what I can tell by looking at the website, graphically it is going to make it much longer to load, they are going to need more bandwidth, (and I think they did just change servers, or service providers, or both), and there is no new information to what already (incompletely) existed. I have to wonder what they are thinking, the program has merits; continuing to make changes superficial or otherwise, only creates posts like this.
But I am most pissed off about the rates as you have mentioned are conflicting, but also last month I spent to a plan that was paying 17%/mo, and it is now paying only 15%, (not that this rate is bad)(but the month is not over...), and the weekly rate changes from week to week. I really wish they would just go ahead and announce that variable rates were being offered, (define the range), and get it over with already.

I am not compounding the monthly plan just yet, I want to see what my payout calculates to be next week.

There are a couple of changes introduced to GM. Some are announced, but others are silently become operational.

1) Your deposits will expire in a year.
2) Max compounding is set to 50%
3) A 2% withdrawal fee is introduced
4) The register fee is raised from $10 to $20
5) Interests decreased on most programs

A lot of changes, and not in favour of the investors.
Maybe the need to do this to survive.
Still, the profits decreases heavily this way.

Easymoney, has this been announced on the website, forum, email...? Or have these changes just been made for investors to discover on their own?

I have the idea GM is not sure what they want at the moment.

1) The deposit expiration was announced on the site, but is not anymore. On the HYIPDiscussion forum this was discussed (not official) and the latest news now is that the expiration is off, and instead they are thinking of variable interest and a 1-3 month non profit period. Nothing official, so I've lost it a little bit.

2) The max compounding was not announced. It was just there. No official explanation.

3) Same with the 2% withdrawal fee. It was suddenly there last week. Again no official notification.

4) Registration fee you can see at the investing page. It is up to $20. As you might guess, no official statement

5) Decreasing interest. That also just happened. But this will probably change to variable rates.

It's all a bit weird. Why don't they think it over before the put all these changes in place and at least inform the investors.
The only place where this can be found is in the HYIPD forum, and not even by the official persons, but it's all announced by the admin's 'friend'

Although I'm a happy investor with GM, all these sudden changes worries me. It's not good they can change the rules without notification or at least inform their investors.

These issues you mentioned have been chronic criticisms all along at GM. Can you include the link at HYD? I want to verify the info posted there with the site, and then probably send off a inquiry to Gordon. I have no problem communicating with him directly so far. Curious who this "friend" is; though I know he was looking for a Mod at one time.

Thanks!
