    The worst company I have ever had to deal with! I DO NOT UNDERSTAND HOW CLEAR ONE ADVANTAGE IS BBB ACCREDITED WHEN THEY ARE SO TERRIBLE!!! Trying to get in touch with someone from Clear One Advantage is impossible!! I have been on hold with them for over 40 minutes and I am still on hold waiting for them to answer the call. I have sent emails and tried to contact Gloria Speed the person that used to handle my situation but that is also of no use because I never get a call back or a reply to my emails. I received a message on my portal saying I was supposed to call clear One Advantage but nobody is answering me. The last time it took 3 weeks, a bunch of phone calls and emails that were never answered and a bad review that got Gloria Speed from Clear One Advantage to get back to me. Hopefully someone from Clear One Advantage will read this review and get back to me. I am still on hold while I am writing this review. So far I have been on hold for 53 minutes.

    Do Not enroll with this company. They steal your money. If you have a bank balance when closing the account they will take your money for fees when accounts were not settled in full. they give bs excuses and will not return your funds. if a contract is voided they give you excuses stating that fees are still owed and will not return your funds

    Thank you for allowing ClearOne Advantage, LLC (COA) the opportunity to respond to Ms. ********** complaint. Our management team has spoken with Ms. ******** to address her concerns. Ms. ******** initially enrolled two creditors in our program and later added six more. *** successfully negotiated a settlement, which she authorized, and payments cleared before she modified her drafts, ultimately resulting in the loss of the settlement.

    We have provided Ms. ******** with detailed information on settlement fees, which are earned once the first payment is made. While the loss of a settlement is unfortunate, it does not negate the client's responsibility to honor their agreement and pay the success fees.

    Ms. ******** has chosen to cancel her program. While were sorry to see her go, we want to reaffirm that we have acted in good faith throughout the process. We sincerely wish her the best in her future financial journey.

    This company will take your money and not pay off creditors. I got sued by **** and had to hire a lawyer after ********* refused to help me after I got sued and it was their fault for making a deal with **** and then never paid ****. They accidentally admitted this to me on phone and once they realized how bad they screwed up they stopped taking my calls.

    I was mislead and lied to. I was in for 2 years. Suddenly it's 4 years. They paid an acct that had already been paid. And they save me around $400 off my settle. Say I have a card with a Balance of $2500, and then they'll settle, and you only, end up paying everything on the settlement. Except for maybe $400, so I feel like I could have done this myself. Not to mention everyone I speak to at. The company says that they're my representative, and then their email address is No longer working Uh, the company doesn't know that person at all. And it changes like every 3 months. It'll be a new person. Uh, so far I have paid them more. Then they have saved me money. I do not recommend this company. My brother had a different company and you know what it was fantastic. But this ride is c*** ************ doesn't know what they're doing. They do not care, and they will take as much money from you, as they can. Stay away!!!

    Initial interview with clear one official was very thorough and on spot with what I owe. Upon going over my accounts, I decided to enroll. Main points...they are thorough, they are on point, courteous, and answered every question very professionally. I was offered an optional legal counsel of which I had added on. I look forward to working with Them on closing these credit cards. My monthly payment is very helpful, saving me about 350 paid out each month. Upon looking at the other companies, I am quite happy I chose Clear One Advantage

    Unfortunately, this company is far worse than just dealing with the debt collectors directly. They significantly down played the hit your credit will take. They will raise your monthly payment each month and I was assuming I was pretty close to finishing the program with how much they were charging, not even close. Most of your monthly contributions go to them and the remaining 10% they throw towards your dad. I should have been done a year ago, but I have another 18 months according to their plan and really would like to cancel my agreement with them. Work with the debt collectors directly and avoid paying the 25% fee they charge for each of the account's original balance. Their support offerings are terrible and you will be on your own to find the answers. Stay far away.
