• Credit Builder Program 
• Progress Updates

United Credit Education Services offers a fairly extensive library of consumer finance and credit education materials that include topics relating to budgeting, credit unions, banks, credit card and credit score situations, establishing credit, debt, loans, and more.

The company's credit repair service costs an initial fee of $125 and a fee of $25 per deleted item.

The dispute process lasts five rounds and the company claims to achieve a 30 to 50 percent deletion ratio within the first 30 days of service. Although this level of deletion rate can vary per customer, it is fairly quick and efficient when compared to other companies in the credit repair industry.  

Removal Success

The company's website discloses that it has successfully corrected a significant amount of negative items like late payments, collections, and public records.

Other types of bad credit items that can be corrected with United Credit Education Services include foreclosures, bankruptcies, judgments, student loans/personal loans, and settlements. 

Credit Analysis Report

As part of the credit restoration process, United Credit Education Services will conduct counseling and analysis of a client's credit situation using their credit reports.

This credit analysis report will pinpoint exactly what needs to be done to improve credit scores. From there, the company will begin its credit restoration process.

Credit Builder Program

Clients in need of building up their credit can do so with this program. United Credit Education Services' website provides that the credit builder program consists of filling out an online registration form and a secured credit card.

Customers can obtain additional information regarding this credit builder program by consulting their United Credit Education Services customer service representative. 

Progress Updates

As part of its credit repair service, the company will review each client's file every 60 days. In addition to a new dispute, clients will receive a credit repair-progress update. Clients can also regularly check their progress by logging into the company's online client portal. 

• Misleading Money-Back Guarantee 
• Required Completion of Three Dispute Cycles for Refund Eligibility
• No Refunds for Incomplete Payments or Monthly Payments Plans 
• No Distributing Payments 

Misleading Money-Back Guarantee 

This credit repair organization does not appear to negotiate lower payments for its clients. While the company does offer a money-back guarantee, it is misleading to consumers.

The company's policy states that "any remaining money from the initial payment made for the service will be refunded to the customer immediately."

This misleading money-back guarantee may prove to be a challenge to customers who do not see credit score improvements while paying for the company's credit repair services.

Required Completion of Three Dispute Cycles for Refund Eligibility

While United Credit Education Services offers a refund to their clients, there is no refund available until after three rounds of disputes.

Customers who are dissatisfied with the company's credit repair services must continue to pay/wait until three dispute cycles of the credit repair process are completed in order to be eligible for a refund.

No Refunds for Incomplete Payments or Monthly Payments Plans

There are additional refund limitations prospective clients should be aware of. If there are incomplete payments still due, a refund cannot be issued.

No Distributing Payments

Unlike some other credit repair companies, United Credit Education Services does not assist in distributing payments or helping clients manage their financial budget.

The dispute letter process does not challenge the event of the disputed item. It only enforces the protocol for proper verification from the credit bureaus as set forth by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA).
