Save 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.

I had a similar experience to others in… I had a similar experience to others in receiving a PINK letter and copy implying they are a debt collector and warning in highlighted letters about "failure to call." They list a plethora of credit cards at the top of the page hoping to cover all possibilities (I have never had most of those cards). My guess is that they send this out in hopes of intimidating the recipient, and subsequently extorting payments from them regardless if there is a valid debt. If you receive one of these letters, you should complain about it to the consumerfinance.gov.

United Debt Counselors saved me… United Debt Counselors help me get my life back in order. There are no words to express my gratitude for how they rescued me. I was very embarrassed to admit that I needed help. They were very understanding and never shamed me. I would definitely recommend them for anyone drowning in debt .

UDC- a big mistake UDC assured me I would save $$ . In reality I was harassed for 8 months by creditors. UDC did not have “relationships” with most of these .companies. Most of the CC companies refused to even negotiate with UDC. The money I managed to avoid paying the CC companies instead went to UDC as their “handling fee”. As a result of me dealing with UDC my credit is completely shot for the next couple of years. I could have delt with these CC companies myself and reached a settlement quicker under more favorable terms.

I 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.
