“The Compliance Organization did a really good job with our MSB compliance. I’m glad we decided to work with your organization. You really know your stuff! It’s great working with true professionals. TCO was thorough, candid, and worth every penny. They helped make our MSB less risky by ensuring our operation is transparent and in keeping with good business practices in our industry. We’ve been in the MSB over 20 years and it’s a shocker to realize how much we needed to significantly improve our adherence to applicable rules and laws. ”

“I was referred to The Compliance Organization by a mutual friend whom they did great work for. Mitchell helped me with a banking Audit for my check cashing business. Though I had short notice, he was able to get the job done. He is professional, efficient and all around a great, great guy. Always there when I called. Thanks Mitchell and The Compliance Organization. We definitely recommend them.”

“When I was tasked with adding the check cashing product to our loan business, I didn’t know where to begin. Thankfully, The Compliance Organization was there to help me every step of the way. They assisted my company in establishing a quality relationship with an MSB-friendly bank, helped us find the right point-of-sale software for our needs, assisted with training our front-line personnel, and helped us establish a first-rate compliance program. The Compliance Organization was instrumental in helping my company launch successfully and grow this important line of business. ”

“It has been a great decision for our company to hire The Compliance Organization. They are reliable and make you feel like part of their team and that they are interested in being able to help you. As always, it is a pleasure to work with them every year. ”

“I worked with [The Compliance Organization] since I received a discontinuous letter from my bank last year. My money service business would be shut down if I lost my bank. I hired The Compliance Organization - and what a great decision that was. I hired them based on their knowledge, industry experience and candor. I put all my trust in them. I felt like they were part of my team and really cared about my business. Best of all, our bank kept us on and commented on how timely, thorough and detailed our new compliance program and independent review was. Moving forward we have a great system and use the forms and record keeping provided by TCO. In addition, the personal support and check in calls they provide throughout the year remind us that we have a great partner and that I can always count on them.”

“I had the opportunity to engage with Mitchell Levy, as I was in the process of selecting a new banking institution and exploring potential financial networks to assist associates encountering challenges with various banks. My interest quickly gravitated towards The Compliance Organization due to their renowned expertise in overseeing Money Service Business (MSB) operations. Throughout our discussions, Mr. Levy provided comprehensive insights into how his services could enhance the assurance levels banks require when monitoring MSBs—a critical component for the sustained operation of such businesses. The clarity and depth of the reporting provided by Mr. Levy and his team have been instrumental in strengthening our relationship with our banking partners. My company is unequivocally committed to maintaining our collaboration with Mr. Levy and The Compliance Organization, ensuring that we remain proactive in response to the evolving regulatory landscape of our industry. Our experience stands as a testament to the value that a strong partnership with knowledgeable experts can bring in resolving complex regulatory challenges.”

“After working with several compliance companies and not being too pleased with their slow response and lack of interest on my business, a friend in the industry highly recommended Mitch and Taylor from The Compliance Organization. Switching to them was the best thing that I have done for my small MSB in a long time. Not only do they support me with my compliance issues, but they also give me great advise on all my business needs from how to improve the business, hiring practices, recommendations in general and best of all they do it in a prompt and efficient manner with a great attitude!!!! Hats off to such a great team…”

“Thanks so much for helping the customer out. Otherwise his accounts were going into closure.”

“These days it is hard to get, or keep, an MSB bank account. In 2019 I applied to a few banks, but they denied my application. I got in contact with Mr. Mitchell and The Compliance Organization. He reviewed my business and operations and gave me assurance that they can get me a bank account soon. He even suggested I apply to the same bank which I had applied to before. With his knowledge and experience, he prepared my application and surprisingly I got approval within 30 days from the same bank who denied it 6 months before. He also guided me how to maintain proper documents to be in compliance all the time, which I always followed. My bank has been giving clearance for a yearly audit since 2019, and the IRS audit also got cleared this year with the help of The Compliance Organization. I strongly recommended Mr. Mitchell and his team as a compliance advisor for your MSB business.”

“Mr. Levy, I can not help but share what a blessing you are to my partner and myself. We started the process of going into the “Check Cashing” business with no idea of the difficulties that we would run up against starting such a project. However, from banking, to license process, even helping us with physically setting up a store you have been there with encouragement, guidance and patience. Without your help, the “Check Cashing” business idea would still be an idea. Thank you for all your correct, complete, and continued guidance. I would encourage anyone thinking about the “Check Cashing” business to call Mitch Levy. He is the BEST!!!”

“We’ve loved working with The Compliance Organization over the past few years! Thank you for being so proactive with communication to ensure we stay up to date with all things MSB compliance. We feel extremely confident knowing we have TCO in our corner for our small business! ”

“Being an independent check casher it is very hard to keep on top of all the regulations and rules. Although we have learned a lot and feel that we do a very good job with compliance, we always felt like we were not completely “there”. A couple months back, we had lunch with [a vendor representative] and she mentioned TCO as experts who could help us cross our “t’s” and dot our “i’s”. We talked to Mitchell and Taylor and ended up doing over our AML policy and had them do an independent review.

Ironically about the same time they finished, I was notified that my Division of Banks was coming to do their examination. This was our third one and I can honestly say that although we were a little nervous, we felt very prepared and not alone. Happy to say that it could not have gone any smoother!!!

We look forward to working with TCO to make sure our AML stays in compliance and will continue an annual independent review with them. If you are an independent like us looking for an assist, I highly recommend them!!”

“We were introduced to Mitchell Levy/ The Compliance Organization when we were required to complete an independent review by our bank. We were allowed to select whom ever we wanted to as long as that person was CAMS certified, but we decided to work with Mitchell for various reasons, including his expertise, enthusiasm, and his desire to help you succeed as a business. Working with Mitchell and Taylor was pleasant from beginning to end. Mitchell goes the extra mile to make sure you truly understand what is needed and has endless tools for you and your employees available on his website. I strongly recommend working with The Compliance Organization if you want your business to succeed.”

“I was referred to Mitchell Levy by a mutual friend whom he did great work for. Mitchell helped me with obtaining a banking license for my check cashing business. Through all “pandemic” challenges, he was able to get the job done. He is professional, efficient and all around a great, great guy. Always there when I called. Thanks Mitchell and The Compliance Organization. Will definitely use and recommend them in the near future.”

“After my existing bank started getting picky about what types of checks they will accept we started losing some clients. This is when I decided to contact some MSB compliance companies. Most of them took a week or so to get back to me. The Compliance Organization was very prompt and on top of things. They sent us a welcoming email to schedule a phone call within 2 hours. When Mitchell called us, he made me feel relaxed and calm. He reassured me that he will be able to help me get a new bank account and he gave me a lot of valuable information about the industry, the main thing being Compliance, Compliance, Compliance. Just as he said, within 30 days, I was able to establish a new bank account for my MSB. From that point on, we hired him to do our yearly independent reviews. What I love about The Compliance Organization is that they are always willing and ready to answer any questions you have about compliance.”

“I was referred Mitchell Levy @ The Compliance Organization, he helped me get an MSB bank account as well as a Loomis contract in just 2 weeks. In my experience, many banks will take a minimum of 4-6 weeks to open an MSB account, but his process from day 1 was very fast and easy going. Whenever I called him, he answered my calls every time even after his service hours without any charge. Mitchell and Taylor are very professional and knowledgeable people, Mitchell taught me many things about BSA and AML programs. I am very happy with TCO and will continue working with Mitchell. I highly recommend Mitchell and Taylor for check cashing service. ”

“Mitchell and his team are a pleasure to work with. From day 1 I felt so comfortable and at ease with the process. They really break everything down and explain it so well. I highly recommend The Compliance Organization for all your compliance needs.
”

“I was referred to The Compliance Organization by a long time colleague and mentor of mine. He insisted and ensured that Mitchell’s work and experience was extensive. He had faith that Mitchell and The Compliance Organization could help my business like they had helped him. In just six weeks after receiving a discontinuation letter from my bank The Compliance Organization worked diligently to keep me in business. They did everything in their power to not only ensure I successfully found a new bank, but that I transitioned efficiently and quickly. They took their time to check-in with me regarding the process and helped me overcome the many hurdles I faced. Their dedication to my success was inspiring and uplifting. The Compliance Organization is rooting for you and your business. I am very pleased with the process and their services. They receive my utmost respect and support for their outstanding work. ”

“I was referred to Mitchell Levy by Cheryl my account representative at The NEXS company. Cheryl is a no-nonsense manager over there at NEXS. When I told her I had a PA Department of Banking audit coming up that I was nervous about, she asked me a series of questions, which I was not capable of answering. Cheryl immediately said I am going to have Mitchell Levy call you right back. In a matter of minutes, Mitchell called me. I have been working with Mitchell since, and the experience has been extraordinary. I’ve learned so much. Mitchell has walked me through the entire compliance process in a matter of weeks. I now feel compliant capable and confident in my AML system. Thank you, Mitchell! ”

“Please consider this the strongest possible endorsement of Mr. Levy’s work. Mitchell brings to the table, not only many years of experience as an MSB owner/operator, in addition to his industry knowledge as evidenced by his CAMS certification. Mitchell is one of the few reviewers that are preferred vendors for [our] bank. He has performed reviews of numerous MSB’s that bank with [us], many of which are in Florida. Mitchell does the job right away. He finds shortcomings and helps the client to correct them before the regulators do. Mr. Levy has always beat deadlines imposed by the bank. He conducts himself in a manner that illustrates his strong ethical approach to his work. This is a strong recommendation of Mr. Mitchell Levy and The Compliance Organization. ”

“I’ve been in the MSB services for almost 20 years, and one of the most stressful situations in this business is when you received a letter from your bank saying that they will be closing your bank accounts in a couple of weeks. In today’s market for our industry, you do not want to start knocking doors in banks to see if they can open a bank account, as all we know is a nightmare.

Thankfully for our industry we have companies like The Compliance Organization. That was my best phone call after receiving the bad news from my old bank. The conversation with Mr. Mitchell was like being in heaven. He was very professional and helpful and got me a new bank relationship in just weeks. Thank you very much Mr. Mitchell and The Compliance Organization.”

“I was introduced to Mitchell Levy early in 2019. I was searching for a new bank and possible banking connections for other people I knew that were having difficulties with various banks. I became very interested in Mitchell and The Compliance Organization and knew that what they offered was expertise and monitoring of the MSB business. Mitchell spent much time talking to me about his way of explaining to banks what exactly his service did to assure banks that monitoring of MSB’s was integral to both the bank and the MSB. As an MSB we know how crucial it is to satisfy the bank auditors to continue to operate our business. Mitchell Levy and The Compliance Organization performed an audit and produced a report to assure the bank that my company was compliant in all areas. Mitchell projects his professionalism when teaching his clients to conform to the BSA requirements, and applying it to our transactions. Mitchell provided us with a report that covered all areas of concern for our bank. It showed how well trained we were with nice detail. My company has every intention to continue using the services of Mitchell and his company so that we are always ahead of the curve in regards to ever changing laws in our in industry. A great relationship can solve many problems. ”

“I enthusiastically recommend the services of Mitchell Levy, CAMS and The Compliance Organization. Since purchasing three MSB Financial Services, The Compliance Organization has been instrumental in teaching us Compliance and keeping us knowledgeable and on track. From building and writing our detailed, risk-based Compliance Policy and Procedures manual to conducting our Bank requested independent review, in addition to our quarterly check-ins, there is always someone available to answer questions and follow up on our progress. We feel confident and well supported. The Compliance Organization has been very professional, a pleasure to work with and we are very happy with their services, We recommend The Compliance Organization highly.”

“Your review process is easy to understand and gives us more insight into what we are doing and how it affects our business practices. You are always willing to listen to and guide us and make updates and changes promptly. You are always available not only during review process but afterwards, every day of the year, and NO CHARGE FOR IT. I have been approached by many people for doing my Independent Review but I am happy with The Compliance Organization and I do not have any need or desire to switch - I am in good hands with Mitchell Levy and his team.”

“I am writing to recommend the services of Mitchell Levy, CAMS, The Compliance Organization, LLC. I worked with Mitchell for many years when he was an owner/operator of several MSB locations. He has first-hand front-line experience in this field. Mitchell’s MSBs were always up to date on all Compliance issues. Since Mitchell has become CAMS Certified and is no longer an MSB owner, we recommend him to our customers for their BSA/AML compliance needs. We know the type of quality work we will receive for our customers. Most recently, Mitchell was instrumental in on-boarding a first time MSB owner and he completed their Independent Review. His work is very robust and comprehensive, the type of work that [our] Bank will accept. Mitchell is a pleasure to work with, he exceeds his timelines and is always available. ”

“I have come to know Mitchell Levy of Compliance Organization in the last almost two years. First I was somewhat skeptical but as I started to work with him, I found him to be very easy to work with. I found him to be knowledgeable, and prompt in response. He is pro-business and treats my business as his business and guides you in that fashion. It is a pleasure to work with him.”

“Mitchell at TCO was finally the knowledgeable, accountable, and highly connected independent reviewer our small business needed. Reviewers from legal and accounting firms set us up for failure during audits in the past. Mitchell comes with check cashing ownership experience which makes a world of a difference. Truly a high class company. ”

“I am writing to recommend the services of Mitchell Levy, CAMS, and The Compliance Organization. As you know, working in the financial services business, Compliance is always front and center. [As an MSB owner] Mitchell was exemplary with his Compliance, we looked at his programs and stellar Compliance audits and procedures as a benchmark for our other agents. Since Mitchell has sold his retail MSB locations, and became CAMS certified, offering his Compliance services to others. I highly recommend Mitchell and his Company to anyone in need of BSA/AML Compliance related issues. Mitchell is a true professional in every sense of the word, I highly recommend him for any Compliance needs as well as for your agents.”
