      I signed up for debt consolidation program in 2024 and I have yet to see results. I dont think whoever is working on my account is working on it. I am 9 payments in the rear on one of my credit cards. There is no way you are telling me that you have not been able to get resolution on my account. I know other individual who have used National Debt Relief and they told me there resolutions went pretty fast. If you guys cant get going on mines I want to cancel the program and take my business elsewhere. I want a call back from the person who is actually working on my account to get resolution. I am aware that they have not attempted to contact any other creditors on my account accept one. If I cant get a response or o I dont get a call back I will be consulting an attorney as this program seems to be a sham.

      Ms. *************************** you for the opportunity to address your concerns.


      A thorough review of your program was completed as it relates to the issues you addressed in your communication.


      Review of your program confirmed that you have approved a resolution on one of your enrolled accounts.  This resolution is ongoing and was approved less than one month into your enrollment, exceeding expectations.


      At the time of your enrollment the proper expectations were set that you could expect to see your first resolution within three to six months, and then others subsequently as funds had the opportunity to accumulate in your dedicated account.  ********************** has exceeded these expectations.


      We have scheduled to have an account manager reach out to address any remaining concerns.


      Sincerely,
      Accredited Debt Relief

      I have asked to be removed from the call list and they continue to call me every day. Emon is the name of the person calling me and he is extremely aggressive. I do not want to be contacted anymore and I will not be using their services so they are wasting their time. I have blocked numerous numbers but Emon and accredited call me from different numbers. At this point it is harassment. I want it to stop.

      On 1/31/2025 I spoke with a ***resentative named N ********* made it very clear several times that I did not want any loans or my credit pulled. I was only calling to inquire about the debt resolution program! I checked my email to find out he ran a credit loan without my permission to Above lending & I dont know what else honestly but I immediately called back to make a formal complaint & cancel everything. I want them to correct this as soon as possible and have those inquiries removed immediately as they were not authorized & I want to know what is going to be done about this! This *** that ***resented FIVE Lakes law lied & I need help having something done about this! Thanks in advance

      There was a citi account ending in 6425 that was suppose to get added to my debt relief program. I do not know what happened to this account and why it wasnt added. Portfolio recovery associates has taken over the account and there is a lawsuit filed against me. I have no idea why this account was left out but since I am not able to add it in the program due to legal filing, I would like to get permanent billing adjustment. This is not fair to me as I have put my debt into the hands of this company and have accumulated an outside debt on behalf of the company. This should have been taken cared of. Thank you

      Ms. ****************************** you for the opportunity to address your concerns.


      A thorough review of your program was completed as it relates to the items you addressed in your communication.


      At the time of this review you are enrolled into the program.  You have one offer pending your review for approval.


      Review confirmed that all accounts included on your enrollment agreement are currently being serviced as part of your program.  While it is possible to add additional debt after enrollment, it is contingent upon that debt meeting the requirements to do so.  


      Records reflect that you had the opportunity to address this concern with an account manager.  Should you have any additional questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.

      I reached out to this company to explore options. Decided it wasnt for me. Now I keep getting calls from different numbers multiple times a day despite blocking and ignoring. Sometimes no answer is an answer, and the repeated calling from different numbers is starting to border on harassment. Please add me to your Do Not Call list and stop contacting me. Thank you

      I contacted Accredited Debt Relief for information on August 19, 2024. I declined their services. I told them NOT to call me and NOT to give my information out. They have done both. They have called me several times after that and as of 12/28/2024 they have given my information out to other debt relief companies. I have received no less than 10 phone calls in the past week from other companies I never contacted. They were the ONLY ones I called. I want them to receive some form of penalty for doing this. I also am on the DO NOT CALL list.

      Seeing all these complaints, I would also like to added to your Do Not Contact list. You seem to have a bad habit of contacting people that do not want to do business with you, and you wont take take their contacts out, unless BBB is involved. Hence Im asking here for you to not contact me.

      I didn't even finish the online application and decided I didn't want to do this. Before I got out of the site my phone rings with a call from Accredited. I did talk with them but decided I would contact them if interested. They have called me 19 times and each time I block the number. They continue to call and from 10 different numbers. I finally told them I was going to call police for harassment. I just want them to put me on a "DO NOT CALL" list and never call me again.
