GBI 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.

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.

I received the letter from the debt lawyer and am trying to figure out who to send it to to have the delinquency removed from my credit. It is having major effects on my credit.

GBExcellent Excellent. During our three year term with United debt counselors they called us regularly asked if we had any questions did we understand everything told us what was being paid how much we had savings and they couldn’t have been more helpful
