I’m having a hard time understanding why you don’t work faster reaching out to creditors - the person that signed me up told me I’d see positive results credit rating wise in 6 months - instead my credit score keeps going down and this is the first month you’ve reached a settlement with one creditor - and not the ones that are actively pursuing me

Its a SCAM and the fees are outrageous. You can do this yourself for FREE and get a better deal than they claim to get you. They took 15000 dollars from me and paid off 7000 of actual credit card debt. When I call them outraged they said the rest of the money went towards their "fees". They also dont disclose this upfront nor do they tell you it will destroy your credit by doing this. This will show up as a charge off on your credit report which is just as bad as a BK. Deal directly with your creditors they will give you a better deal. When I did that I saved myself 4K and could have paid off the debt in half the time. It literally took me 5 minutes to settle 24k in debt to 11K with Capital one. They ripped me off for 7500 dollars then when I cancelled they sent me an email stating that I was still liable for debts not settled through them.

I apologize in advance for this lengthy and thorough review.
FirstFirst of all, I always try to give everyone the benefit of the doubt. I read reviews, and I understand that everybody's experience can differ significantly. So I was willing to follow the program to get out of his crushing debt. I work with particular clients that a bankruptcy would be viewed as extremely harmful. So I decided to take the debt consolidation route to satisfy my ability to make a living and to pay back what I could of the debt, I owed. I received a summons from the courthouse to appear for a warrant in debt. As for the protocol I immediately informed FDR of the summons and simultaneously signed up for the legal representation from the national litigation law group. The law firm was recommended to me to help with legal negotiations while FDR completed the contractual negotiations. Twenty days later and with that in a court appearance looming there has been no contact with the creditor. To me, this appears some rather odd, how can you negotiate with a creditor without contacting them in some form or fashion. During my many conversations with customer service, I was informed that I just needed to add more money to the account. The strange thing is no one can tell me how much to add to my account or what the magic number should be or if the negotiators even see a potential of settlement. I'm writing this review, not to put a wholly negative light on FDR, they have been responsive, and their customer service albeit couldn't help the was friendly and courteous, and the dashboard and the site are transparent as to monies received and General Communications. However, there is a lack of transparency as to the negotiation tactics and communication correspondence between the negotiations department and creditors. My recommendation is to keep the negotiation channels open with the creditors and subsequently allow FDR to work in conjunction with your efforts.

I wish I had known before I started this whole debt settlement process, how horrible of a process it is. If I had known at the beginning what I know now, I would never have pursued this option. It is by far the worse choice I have ever made in my entire life. I was told at the beginning of this process that it wouldn’t take more than 3 years to settle and resolve all my debts and now i’m being told it could take at least 4 1/2 years. Who wants to go thru this kind of craziness for almost 5 years. The customer service at FDR, aren’t true customer service people, here for the clients, I have dealt with more rude comments or responses to emails than I even want to talk about. The fees that FDR charges are incredibly high and it takes way too long to settle anything. By the time this process is actually completed, I will have paid more than my beginning credit card balances were in full. As a client, we should be told up front how long it really takes to resolve these debts and it should be the 200% truth. Promising a client it will be solved and done in 3 years and then being told a year into the process it might actually take almost 5 years is completely unacceptable. If I had been told up front it would take 5 years, I would have told them they are nuts and never agreed to it.

We sincerely apologize for any frustrations caused on our end, Ms. Brooks. Please know our intent was not malicious in regards to the amount of time it takes to complete our program. Yes, our program takes about 3 1/2 to 4 1/2 years to complete. However, there are ways to accelerate the program. Factors such as the amount of debt enrolled, the monthly deposit amount and the creditors enrolled all directly impact a client's Graduation Path. There is simply no way for us to be able to determine exactly when a client will complete our program. However, our Certified Debt Consultants can provide an estimated graduation date, based off of past experiences and the rapport we have with the enrolled creditors.
With regards to our fees, we ask that you please consider the following. Compare our fees to the 100% of the debt amount plus any interest and additional late/penalty fees if someone can't meet the monthly required minimum payment. We offer a proven solution at an affordable monthly cost that helps our client pay down their entire debt; principal, fees, interest and all.
If you would not mind, we would like an opportunity to speak with you and attempt to resolve any other concerns you may be having at this time. One of our team specialists will be reaching out to you shortly. We appreciate the opportunity to service your financial needs. Thank you for choosing Freedom Debt Relief.

We appreciate your honest feedback, Jackie. If we are understanding you correctly, it sounds like you have concerns about the length of your Graduation Path. There are many factors, such as the monthly deposit amount, the enrolled creditors and the total amount of debt enrolled into our program that impact the amount of time it takes to graduate. That is why our Certified Debt Consultants provide an estimated graduation date; based off of past experiences with the creditors and the amount of debt enrolled. However, there may be opportunities for you to accelerate your Graduation Path and graduate sooner than anticipated. One of our knowledgeable advocates in Client Services would be more than happy to review these options with you.

When initially enrolling in your program, Larry, the representative informed me that it would take 3 years to settle my debts. Here we are 4 years later and there has been 3 additional years tacked on. There is an affiliate company who attempted to get me to take out a loan to pay off the debt and then pay them back using the same payment amount FDR used so it appears that I will not save any money but FDR has made enough money off of me and wants their affiliate company to be able to make money off of me as well.

When I first signed up I was never told up front that the fees that Freedom charges every time they get a settlement are almost as much as the amount of debt that gets waived. So really they are not saving the debtor any money at all. I have had my largest debt in collections for over a year and that means that they are waiting for the largest one to build up to a much larger amount amount due so that Freedom gets a larger payout from the settlement. Freedom held on to a 1099 C that they had received in January from one of my creditors and did not send it to me until the very end of March. On the letter they sent with it there is no date and no date on the envelope so no way to prove they held on to it for so long. I had already filed my taxes so had to pay and additional 50.00 to have my tax return amended. When I called in to voice my frustration about my largest debt not getting negotiated after being in collections and the amount of the fees I have paid she literally said an I quote " well look at it this way, you only have 1 payment a month"!!!!!!!

Well, let me start by saying I am not a happy customer at this point. I have 4 accounts enrolled in the program. I feel like they deceive me from the beginning. The further into the program I get the more info I find out. First off, they say there are no fees. That is a lie. You can have a monthly deposit into your designated account of $600.00 and only $100.00 of that is paid to your creditor. The rest goes to FDR. That is every month!!
If you have a Discover card, DO NOT enroll it in this program!!! Discover does not negotiate. Once the account is charged off for lack of payment(which FDR tells you to not make payments) Discover then proceeds to sue you for the full amount owed plus attorney fees, late fees and interest. This is were the legal team that you sign up with at the beginning of the program comes into play. Again, Discover does not settle. So, now on top of my original monthly deposit I have to make an additional deposit every month of $230.00 for the next 3 years to pay Discover. If I had this kind of money to begin with I could of made the payments on my own. FDR knew that Discover does not settled. Why did they not tell me that up front?? Gee, could it be so they could get more money....
I feel this company is very deceiving. If I knew then what I know now I never would of done it. My credit is trashed now because of this. It will take years to recover. Perhaps Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Affairs would be interested in this. I am sure Better Business Bureau would like the information as well.

When a client is in the process of enrolling in the program we take a look at which accounts we can work with and what creditors we don't. The accounts that are enrolled go through our underwriting department as they verify each account and confirm if the accounts are eligible to be enrolled. In fact, Discover does negotiate with us and we reach settlements with them on a daily base. Any creditor can proceed litigation and unfortunately, in this situation, Discover proceed to sue you. Not all of our clients experience this, although it is true that some creditors are more aggressive than others we offer legal representation in case of an event like this.

Oh where do I began. People please do you home work. This company has perfect customer service skills. They don't tell you the truth. Your credit will turn to complete crap... They wait for you do go into collections. If you are lucky enough they will turn around and offer you a 25.5 loan that comes out to 18k just in interest fees.
Please DO YOU RESEARCH!!!! there are better ways than this scam. I have paid them over 1,500 in the last 6 months. I have called all my credit card companies to figure out a plan to pay them down. They will agree to settle with you. Furthermore, Freedom Doesn't tell you that certain companies will not settle with them, such as Chase, Macys. They WAIT till they are in collects. DO YOUR RESEARCH AND DO NOT SIGN. Nov 8, 2017 - — The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) today filed a lawsuit against Freedom Debt Relief!!!

I've been with FDR almost a year, they've collected $5700, settled 0 accounts & allowed my smallest debt ($5200) to go into collection! I faxed mailed all collection letters asking that FDR respond before I go into collection. I'm in collection & my credit is in the toilet, lost over 300 points since joining.
"Wish I would have been better informed about how bad my credit would get during the process" a comment I agree with.

Excellent help in debt settlement. Amazing how much reduction in debt when resolved. Never could do this myself. I do not have the resources to negotiate like FDR.

I am VERY upset with FDR. The salesman who I first spoke with assured me that working with FDR is the best choice to reduce debt and to avoid legal problems arising from accounts in collections. Well that is exactly where I find myself now. I received garnishment paperwork for an account that FDR was supposed to be servicing. I guess they did not start any settlement with the account that went to garnishment because the balance was higher than some of the other smaller items they were working on. FDR did settle a couple accounts for me and their settlement is $5 or $10 a month in order to stretch out the length of time you are in the program. Back to the account with the high balance that was pushed off and not worked on, well now 25% of my income is gone to garnishment for the next several months.
I also stupidly signed up for the legal services they offer and have PAID EXTRA to have on my account. The legal reps were very prompt in telling me they would not represent me and just pushed me back to FDR. After calling FDR AGAIN to explain the legal services dropped me, they said they would send my account over to another legal team and I would hear back in 3-5 business days, all while garnishment is looming ahead. A week went by with no word from FDR, I called back and was hung up on. Called back again and spoke to a very rude woman who gave me zero information at all. After getting more and more frustrated with her rude responses I spoke to a supervisor, who told me I needed something from the court. Nobody told me about this prior. In the week of waiting to hear back and the 3 different conversations I had with FDR prior nobody told me to get these documents from the court. All the while FDR does not seem remotely concerned about the fact that my wages are now being garnished, I will need to drop out of school, and could be looking at eviction in the next few months. They were not apologetic and did not offer any alternatives., their only answer was "we haven't heard back" from the firm who filed the garnishment. The supervisor said she could see FDR reached out a week prior, but shows no other notes. They tried to reach out ONE time and never followed up again.
They were very eager to work with me when I signed up and gave them permission to debit my bank account every two weeks, but now that my life is falling apart, they could care less. DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS COMPANY!

By the time you take your large fees out of my deposits, I don.t think im really gaining on this dept. You negotiate a settlement and then take 21% of the original amount, that's almost what I was paying off before. I probably would have been better off just getting a loan. having a lower payment. and not ruining my credit. Your fees coming out of my account are as much as the settlements.

The only problem I’m having is that my credit score is negatively affected during this process . At least the phone calls have been less lately, but is very annoying. My credit or my score was decent until FDR took control. But hopefully debts will be settled and my positive credit score will return to a more acceptable level.
