Answer by Judy
They take your money.
They tell you not to pay your bills.
In the meantime you rack up late fees and interest.
They do this to scare the credit card companies into settling.
Some do, most dont.
You can or will end up in court anyway.
google debt negotiation complaint or the name of the company followed by the words complaint or rip-off.
You can do this yourself.
There are books at the bookstores like credit repair for dummies.
They tell you how to negotiate with your credit card companies.
Or you can try your local consumer credit councelling center.
Look in the phone book for their number – not online.
A lot of people don’t seem to know what they are getting into when they sign up for these programs – and that’s a shame.
