I don't know if I missed an earlier post or not but, this is what I have experienced over the last week. I just had our lease sold out from under us without warning so I decided to start looking like so many others.

I came across this site that seemed to be really up on leases across Texas for a nominal fee of only $29.99 plus tax for 6 months use to assist in locating a new lease. The company that calls itself Texasleaseconnection.com immediately charged my credit card and promised immediate access. If this is not a SCAM there are no rattlesnakes in south Texas. I have made 5 email and several phone call attempts and they has not responded in any form or fashion.

Bottom line is, when it comes to Texasleaseconnection.com , run fast and run far. In my neck of the woods, folk like this are called THIEVES.

If I can save one hunter the BS and headaches that I've had then "That's a GOOD Thang".

Safe Travels and Happy Hunting.

What is the exact issue? Immediate access was not granted? You will get you money back from your CC company if you call them. I would be very leary of how many leases they claim they have listed... If it is a scam, report to attorney general.

No access at all. No response email/phone. Already contacted CC company and hope others don't get caught up in this.

I have never heard of them. Googled them and looks like you are not the first person to have this problem.

I've heard similar stories about them. Never heard anything good.

I think they got me once, several years ago. Just several loser brokers listing the same lame , probably day, leases. Impressed me as pretty sleezy, but, obviously, still in business.

I tried another one, 'can't remember the name, and I was able to connect with a broken down 40K acre ranch (really a huge oil patch with a cattle lease for ag exemption) 20 miles west of Kermit, and, despite the conditions, was able to find a decent Texas mule deer, twice; once for my brother and once all by my lonesome.

Best to work any friends you have. Hell, even some Chamber of Commerce connections are better than these sites.

Good luck to you.

Main thing is they don't lie to and steal from other members on this site.

They have had two complaints with zero resolutions through the BBB.

I appreciate all the reply's, again the main thing was to help keep them from getting to other hunters who are just seeking information and/or assistance.

Unfortunately at my age I'm too old to start over. Watch this site: Shortly, I will be having a complete sell off of all my hunting equipment from 5th wheel camper to cams and everything between except my bow and arrows and things that go bang.

Safe Travels and Happy Hunting.
