    Alert:

    In April 2021, BBB investigated Modify Student Loans' business practices. This investigation was prompted by a BBB Scam Tracker report. The report shared concerns regarding the business charging advanced fees and potentially providing services without proper licensing. 

    BBB reached out to the business by email on April 21, 2021 requesting the following documentation be submitted to BBB:

    - Please provide an explanation of your fees and timelines.
    - Please provide copies of sales scripts.
    - Please provide information on the full services that the company offers including document preparation.- Please provide a copy of your Department of Financial Protection and Innovation license or proof of exemption. If you already have a license and we couldn’t find it, please provide a copy. 

    In addition, BBB also sent the company an SBQ (Standard Business Questionnaire) form to obtain more information on the business, its structure, management, etc., however the business failed to return the form.

    As of April 30, 2021, the business has not responded to BBB’s request.

    I had contacted this company in 2022 to help my student loans, the gentleman **** sounded so trust worthy and was so patient with me. I then agreed to their services of paying $39 per month after paying $300 processing fees. After 10 months they increased my fees to $99 with no contract, no communication, no letter, nothing. *** tried contacting them And now no reply. I am consistently calling my credit card company to place disputes for me every month now. The condone of still charging me after my year contract had been over for 4 months. This company needs to be shut down, its nothing but a scam!

    I have been giving this company money for the past 9 years - they took out $50 more dollars than I agreed to with no explanation for the past 3 months- no paperwork no authorization from me to do so- ***************************** said for two days they would send a refund- on 1/17/24- then again on 1/18/24 - I just got off the phone with him and he said the refund was coming- still nothing. This is a big time scam!!!
