Wow! I read through all the threads. I was on the fence as to what I was going to do because I see both sides and I keep an open mind. As I was reading, I kept seeing that there are ACN Reps that went to 5 Linx and 5 Linx reps that went to ACN. After I read everything, even on different posts, I would think they (5 Linx/ACN) were the same company with different names with the same desires in mind. To make money. I commend those that have made money but hopefully not at the expense of someone who’s in dire need. I’ll continue to do my research because everyone is looking for a better tomorrow. I do leave you with this…If you are truly business minded individuals leave the negativity out and state the facts. The derogatory language adds nothing to the thread. Just my thoughts. May you all come out on top no matter what business you attempt.

I ran into 5Linx while doing some job searching at school. There was a flyer posted all around campus that advertised:

“Summer/Free Time work. Make up to $2000 a month, all training provided. No experience necessary! Call Mary [lastname] at [xxx-xxx-xxxx]”

With a valid phone number and lastname of course.

Of course, when you call… there IS no Mary anything. In fact, there wasn’t any female associated with that line. I spoke with a guy there who said that they were a leader in telecom. He scheduled me for a “job interview” a day or so later. I actually skipped class to make the interview.

The “interview” was a group of people like me gathered into a room to listen to them drone on about their “business opportunity.”

Is this the “integrity” that 5Linx is speaking of? Lying to people, and distributing false advertisements to school billboards in an effort to drag them into a recruitment meeting?

Oh and also… 2 of our speakers said THE EXACT SAME 5 MINUTE SPEACH. I guess they listened to their upline, ya?

Anything.. and I repeat, ANYTHING of value that 5Linx may have had to offer was lost behind all this crap.

Well I have to use the service anyways, so I paid 500 US and guess what, I get more money for what I paid, so for me is a good deal,
If you pay 500US and you get 1000US in a month is a good deal no matter what.

I must admit I made money with 5Linx. I had over 100 personal cust and made the pool just about every month. But, nothing last forever. I am now doing Global Verge (WWW.Globalverge.com/Pianki). Our travel site is: http://www.mygvtravel.com/letstravelwithleslie/. This baby just launched this June and we got involved in July. Things have been bumpy but are moving along. 5Linx does not have the compensation this dude does. I am not sure what to do with 5Linx. The monthly residuals still come in and pays for our phone service and monthly fees. 5Linx does not pay residuals nowhere like Global Verge and the products are more friendly to today socio-economic people out here.

well first of all i think you are all nuts the ones for or against and im about to p off everyone here you know the first and oldest mlm pyramid or what ever you want to call it that would be religion for example Christianity tells everyone that you have to teach everyone you know to be a christian and it also teaches that you should get paid by everyone that becomes a christian and your supose to teach these people how to teach others and the mlm sales nothing but hope and a way of living by the way if there were a “maximum saturation” im sure they would have reached it some time in the last 2 thousand years o who was it that said theres a costumer born everyday 2nd of all a average professional works 20 hours above the required 40 hour work week its simple time in = money out that is if the time was spent properly ok ground level on why this cant be a scam always look at the grunt the into level is 500 dolor’s + a recruitment of another person that has to pay 500 dolor’s in other words the 500 is mute so in truth excluding the bonuses the money is earned threw sales and that money is the % of the profit at current for a service you get 20c so for a thousand customers you get 200 dolor’s since its a service these costumers are automatically repet-customers and as many “leget” businesses like insurance or real-estate if you cant get as few as a thousand costumers in a year you would be fired so dont bother trying to sale anything 10k costumers or 2000 dolor’s a month would be a typical sales person quota of course depends on the product now the real reason that mlm fail is 2 things 1 the product 2 the people and i mean the product is usually more expensive and more inconvenient then what the can get else where or the people say i made my millions see you all and close shop or like this one is doing recruiting people that are looking for the “get rich quick” doing nothing but sitting on your butt who inturn recruit more get rich quick people that have no plans or being part of a business or saleing a product so lets put this in perspective if i sale to half the people in my little 600k town i would make 60 thousand a year residual not being a multimillion year but as long as the people that run it dont drop out on me it will get bills paid and i dont have to labor my ass of for 13k a year net
