GBWhen we signed up we were 25,000 in… When we signed up we were 25,000 in debt. A relocation and job change create very difficult financial burden on our family. We were able to combine in the program 4 creditors. They were out legal spokesmen for the settling the debt. In just 4 years we are now debt free and our credit score has rebounded to excellent. Highly recommended.

GBThe UDS counselors failed to inform me… The UDS counselors failed to inform me that even though the debts re renegotiated, the negative debt information stays on one’s credit report. Additionally, they are poorly equipped to help a costumer figure out what to do about it and would not help get the information removed from one’s credit report. Would not recommend this service to anyone.

GBBAD CHOICE!!!! BAD CHOICE!!!! I SHOULD NEVER HAVE TRUST THIS ORGANIZATION. MY LOAN WAS PAID OFF IN FEBRUARY 2018, BUT THEY CONTINUED TO DEDUCT SERVICE CHARGES FROM THE $100. OVERAGE AND REFUNDED ME LESS THAN $50. I HAVE REPEATEDLY MADE REQUESTS FOR FINAL PAPERWORK TO SHOW THAT THIS ACCOUNT IS PAID IN FULL.

GBI started with this company in 2017 I started with this company in 2017. I made my payments every month on time. It’s now 2022 and they STILL have not finished paying my creditors. I had Marshall’s knocking on my door 4/5 different times to serve/summon me. I was sued. Last year I received 1099 from 2 of the largest creditors that they never told me they settled so I owed the IRS as it is considered income. Just today I received a call after over a year saying they are still working on my account. This company is dishonest, unprofessional and I will tell everyone DO NOT USE them. The amount of stress this company has caused me is unbearable. They are the worst. They should be investigated and sued for false claims and lying. Find another credit company. Worst experience of my life.

GBSave your money and negotiate your… Save your money and negotiate your credit card settlements yourself. I started this program with $37,000 in debt. They promised that I would settle for 40-50% of my debt. By the time I paid all the fees to United Debt Counselors and then settled all my credit cards, it ended up costing me $34,000. These companies would have easily negotiated directly with me for a measly $3,000 savings and I could have saved my credit by doing it sooner instead of being forced to allow my cards to go into default after beginning the program. This was a rip off and I would not recommend it to anyone.
