Do NOT use this company!!! They lie and then tell you false % and timelines. After 75 days NOTHING had been touched! I tried to call and no one called me back when I said I was wanting to stop using them. The sales guy-won't use his name was talking about how he has had to use them 2 times because of "life". They didn't help at all and made it worse!Review from Bruce H

******, We value all feedback and appreciate you taking the time to share your experience with our Senior Customer Advocate, ********. At 5 months into your estimated 36-month program, you have already experienced realized savings, as Century was successful in negotiating a favorable settlement on your largest enrolled debt account within the first month of your enrollment. As a success-based company we do not earn a fee until we show you value. Once we negotiate with your creditor, you approve the settlement & the first payment is sent, only then have we earned our full settlement fee. To allow you to take advantage of the settlement opportunity presented to you, Century spread the collection of the earned fee over 6 months. When you enrolled in your program, a customized plan was created to for you to resolve your unsecured debts over your estimated program length. Settlements can happen at various times and depend on the a few factors, including the amount of funds built in your dedicated reserve account, your monthly deposit amount, the number of creditors you have enrolled & balance of each individual account. There is a strategy in reaching out to creditors for the best time to settle. We have over 20 years experience and have built strong relationships with creditors over that time. Your program is on track for continued success and you have made great progress to date.Thank you again for your feedback and taking the time to connect with ********. We lok forward to continuing our partnership with you on this journey to better financial health.Review from james h = B

I was told the process to cancel takes a day. It's been more than a day. I was told I would receive a call because their senior agents are busy. The call I never got was an email. So I called and got put on hold. I got told again senior agents were busy. I sent a signed cancellation request to the email listed on the form and that was the wrong email. I knew it was going to be a long drawn out process like trying to cancel Sirius XM. For a business to play a game and with people's time, it's absolutely ridiculous. I'm quite sure some of these reviews are fake and produced by this company. Even in the responses here, there are lies being told. The business profile says the company started in 2012 and a response said they had 20 years of experience. My customer profile said I lost my job, but how would I pay this company with no job? I don't even know how this business is accredited by BBB. Snake in the grass company.Century Support Services, LLC Response

********************, thank you for taking time to speak directly with our Senior Customer Advocate Manager, ******, to discuss the concerns mentioned in your review. As ****** explained, you have the right to cancel your program, at any time. Our records indicate your request to cancel was received on 07/03/2024. At that time, your scheduled program deposit was stopped to allow our team time to connect with you to further understand your decision to cancel, as you are brand new to the program. Our goal is to help our clients achieve better financial health. A customized plan was created when you enrolled so we always want to understand what has changed, when a client is requesting to cancel the program. Our office was closed on July 4th in observance of the holiday; however, our Advocate team attempted to reach you unsuccessfully via ************* at the appointment time you requested for 07/05/2024. Your file was submitted for cancellation upon receipt of your final 7/5/24 email. Your mention several items in your review and follow up email that we would like to personally address, as your comments are not accurate to our business operations and practice. First, you stated that our online reviews are fake and produced by the company and that statement is inaccurate. Feedback directly from the voice of our consumers is very valuable to our company & as an accredited member of both the Better Business Bureau (BBB) and the ******************** for Debt Relief (AADR), we are required to meet specific compliance and ethics criteria in order to maintain that accreditation status. The BBB reviews each submission for authenticity and validates all email addresses and phone numbers of reviewers to ensure they are client driven. As to our tenure as a company, we have been in business offering debt settlement services since 2003 and rebranded our name to Century Support Services in 2012. Second, you stated that you were told by one of your creditors, Avant, that they do not negotiate to settle accounts with **********************. That statement is inaccurate, as we have settlement trends completed with Avant. Creditors do change their settlement policies frequently & we work directly with them to meet their requirement for negotiations. Century has historical data to support our business practices and during our underwriting process, we ensure that only accounts for which we can successfully negotiate a settlement are enrolled on the program. We regret if there was a communication gap with your Certified Debt Specialist during your enrollment process. The Century debt settlement program is a hardship program for clients that are financially distressed, and our goal is to help clients resolved their unsecured debts by negotiating favorable settlements for less than the full balance of the enrolled debt. Understanding the clients financial hardship and the reasons for seeking debt relief is important to the strategy of this journey & the need to accurately capture that reason is important. . Thank you for taking the time to connect with ****** to further discuss your concerns. We regret that you no longer feel this program is the best path for resolving your debt and wish you the best.Review from Helen H

Not Happy with the process or results. Too long to settle and no open communication throughout the process. You must follow what is going on in the portal. Plus the fees are ridiculous. You may as well pay your cards on time because the cost of the settlement is just as much as it wouldve cost to pay the card at $600 a month. For nearly 2 years. Had to drop some of the accounts from the program. Not happy at all.Century Support Services, LLC Response

*****,We thank you for taking the time to connect with a member of our Advocate Team, ****, to review the concerns you have mentioned. Prior to enrolling in your program, you were presented with a Century Debt Settlement Agreement that outlines your program and cost in detail. The earned settlement fee for each account is based on the balance at the time of enrollment and does not change. This not only allows you to know the cost of your program prior to enrollment but it also can give you assurance that there is no benefit in Century delaying going to work for you. Century does not earn a settlement fee until we do the work. This is how we show our value. When we successfully negotiate a settlement on your behalf, you accept the settlement and a first payment is initiated to your creditor, only then have we earned the right to collect the full earned settlement fee.For over 20 years, our skilled team of negotiators has built relationships with creditors and works to identify the most strategic time to initiate a settlement. Settlements can happen at various times and will depend on several factors, including your monthly deposit amount, the number of creditors you have enrolled & the balance of each individual account. ********************** was able to negotiate a 50% settlement on one of your accounts during your first 60 days on the program. That amazing success also provided you with a realized saving of $1,774.00. Our records indicate that once your final payment on your structured settlement is complete, the cancellation of your program will be finalized. We regret that you are not satisfied with the success of your program and wish you the best in your future endeavors.Review from Joy S

Joy, Century has professional relationships with several other debt relief companies.

Century is an accredited member of the ******************** for Debt Relief. We are also accredited with the Better Business Bureau with an A+ rating & have a Trustpilot rating of 4.9 (of 5) stars. Century was also voted Best *********************** by Forbes. Century is a legitimate company offering debt relief services for over 20 years. We have helped consumers settled over $2+ billion dollars worth of debt. There are several contact numbers for Century depending on how you were referred to us.

I said I would not ever do a debt consolidation again, but my monthly expenses began to outweigh my net income, so I had to do something. Century offered a monthly savings of more than $1,000, and that was definitely a relief. The hit on my credit score was expected, but this time around, it was almost immediate. Although it was annoying to see my score drop like that, I knew it was a means to an end. The one thing I do not like about Century, which my previous debt consolidators did not do, is that they make attempts to adjust my agreed-upon monthly payment to settle debts. THAT is not something I am comfortable with at all. Any extra that I have saved I have been using to pay down other debts and keep food in the house and utilities paid. Had it not been for real estate complications, I would have never done this again and rest assured THIS will be the last time I ever do this.Review from Harold P
