Customer Review: Lisa [February 18, 2016]

"Superior Debt Relief is awesome! I was over $40,000 in debt and felt I would never pay my charge cards off. . . . They evaluated my situation and set up a repayment plan that was easier for me to manage. Within 3 years I was done and debt free! They kept me informed every step of the way and made this process bearable! Thank you Dee and everyone who worked on my case!!!"

The Bad

  • Missing Accreditations
  • Limited Availability
  • High Minimum Debt Requirement

Missing Accreditations

Superior Debt lacks an AFCC accreditation, while many competitors are accredited by both the AFCC and IAPDA. Along with the missing AFCC accreditation, the company makes no mention of being in compliance with FTC rules and regulations.

Limited Availability

The biggest concern for most potential customers is availability; SDR is only available in 9 states.

High Minimum Debt Requirement

In order to access Superior Debt's services, consumers must owe at least $10,000 or more, which is higher than the industry average.

The Bottom Line

While Superior Debt Relief has an average price point and a few industry accreditations, the company has been in business for a long time and its customer reviews have been consistently favorable. We recommend calling Superior Debt if you owe more than $10,000 and live in its service area. For those owing less or living elsewhere, we recommend working with another company.

Patrick Grand Rapids, MI

I was not crazy about the idea regarding debt settlement and I'm very happy that I found the right company to work with me on all my debt settlement proposals. I went through a very rough divorce several years back and with my child support payments and high credit card payments I had to do something. Even though bankruptcy was an option, my income was too high for a Chapter 7 and a Chapter 13 budget plan did not make much sense to me either as I did not have $1,800.00 upfront to get an attorney and I thought that my chances of repairing my credit would be better without a bankruptcy hanging over me. At any rate my accounts would have to be settled one way or another and I needed help. The only downfall is that I would not have Bankruptcy protection when doing my best to settle with my creditors. I contacted Superior and we came up with a goal and a monthly payment plan to start settling my credit accounts. This worked well for me and it took me approximately 24 months to settle 5 accounts. I am now starting to establish better a credit rating and put more money in the bank. Life had its financial challenges for me and I am so happy that I went with Superior. They are professional, friendly and are always on the look out for their clients. I want to thank the team at Superior. Those who started working with me from the consultation, to the negotiators and legal team. I especially want to thank Marie C. for getting me through this as well. There was a light at the end of the tunnel when I didn't see it at first. I'm in a better place in my life financially. I must say that it feels really nice and I wish I would have started the process a lot sooner.

Unforseen circumstances left me $35,000 in debt and unable to work with the credit card companies by myself. Superior Debt and Dee Galla helped me get rid of my debt and in a timely manner. They let you know up front approximately how long it will take and put you on a payment schedule. About 2 years later and at a 51% savings, I am debt free! I couldn't have done that on my own! Superior Debt was a lifesaver for me!

Superior debt co. was tremendous. They handled our account extremely well and eliminated our debt efficiently. We are still in the process but they told us straight up front that it would take three years and we are right on schedule to accomplish this. I would highly recommend this co. for those in a similar situation as we were. $85,000 in debt.

I am very pleased with the service provided by Les, Bailey, and Cindy. Though we were not able to finish out the last obligation I had, I am happy with the payment plan arranged with the collection co. The personal and professional experience I was given was second to none. I would highly recommend Superior to anyone having to go through this type of difficult situation. Thanks again to all, Patrick Transue

We really appreciated the way Superior Debt Service took care of us when we consolidated our debts. Marie kept in touch with us and let us know when a creditor worked things out with them. We would certainly recommend Superior Debt to anyone who is having trouble paying their credit accounts.

My representative always answered my questions and helped me through the process. There was never a hidden agenda and all program principles were presented in an upfront manner. They were even able to help me find that an unauthorized account had been opened in my name that was harming my credit.

It's a tough thing going through consolidation, but they are a great company to work with. They're understanding when other life situations arise and also transparent about how things are progressing. They always call you back and you're always speaking to the same person. Glad we chose them.

Superior debt has really helped me out with my credit cards. I will have them paid off much sooner than I could have trying to do it by myself. They have been so helpful any time I had questions. I have told people about what I'm doing and hopefully some will do the same.

We are very happy with Superior Debt service. The officials in charge of our case were very professional and they communicated with us often. We completed the program in three years and we are happy to say we are debt free.

I reached out to superior debt relief sometime ago when I wanted some assistance consolidating debt. They answered all my questions, and it was never hard to get a hold of somebody, and I never felt pressured or rushed; they gave me time to think things over which I appreciated, and ultimately they were able to help me get out of my debt.
