A "questionable" business in Smyrna.

Google news updates brought to my attention that a business based in Smyrna, may be involved in questionable activities.
Dawn Domain signed up as a member of MedLife Plus to receive its card that promised discounts on medical services of up to 80 percent from local providers in Burlington.

But all of the doctors MedLife said would take the card rejected it.

She said she eventually found a dentist who stated he would accept it, but the fee he would charge for taking the discount card would actually be higher than what he normally charges.

Domain and two other Wisconsin residents with similar stories are named in a lawsuit filed Thursday by the state attorney general's office alleging that MedLife Plus and Full Access Medical, both based in Tennessee, violated state consumer laws.
.................
The companies' Web sites list offices in Atlanta and Marietta, Ga., but both are registered in Smyrna, Tenn.
I've seen late night commercials detailing wonderful discount cards. They always seemed be "to good to be true", and they may have been.
