National Debt Relief is an excellent company to help you become debt free. They are very helpful if you have questions. Everyone I spoke to there is great. They are taking a lot of stress off of me.

The process is slow, a lot slower then expected. It is also so damaging to my credit. Years of rebuilding it, wiped out since signing up. I kind of regret signing up, but at the same time it seemed to be my only option in debt relief. The people are great though.

I am not sure how they fo things. Meaning I thought they contacted my debtors and arranged payments to them. I have one paid off and 2 others payments are being made to. I have no clue what is going on with the other debts I have. Communication is lacking.

I have been with NDR for a year now . So far they paid off one creditor and are working with three. I am going to be served soon on my Macy credit card. Very nervous. I haven’t heard anything about anyone experience How NDR handle these situations. Should I try to reach a payment agreement with Macy myself. Cannot afford to have wages taken

After the initial process and getting set up, my experience with National Debt Relief has been positive. Even though it requires patience to go through the process, it has been very helpful. Some of my debt was settled faster than what I thought possible.

We are in the middle of our contract and so far so good. They keep in contact with the creditors and me and let me know when there is a settlement offer. So far they have settled 4 of my 10 accounts. Happy so far.

I'm deeply disappointed with NDR because I fail to see any activity in my account. The reason given by NDR is that they are waiting until I accumulate enough funds in my account so that they can pursue settlement agreements with my creditors. I'm not buying this reason. All they are doing is collecting interest off of my money and charging me a fee to do so.

Reply from National Debt Relief

William, we're sorry your experience hasn't met your expectation. Let's see if we can clarify any misunderstandings you may have. Firstly, the money in the savings account doesn't generate interest. The account isn't interest-bearing and its sole purpose is to hold and save your monthly drafts. Secondly, remember, we aren't a bank or a lender. The funds we will eventually use to repay the creditors comes from your monthly drafts. Think about this: when you enroll your accounts, let's say we start negotiating immediately and we have a settlement within (1) month. Your creditor will expect payments to start right away. If you don't have money in your savings account. we can't make those payments for you, so the negotiation would have been a waste. Any subsequent negotiations may not yield a result as favorable. This is why we must wait until there's enough in the savings account before we start the process. If you'd like one of our agents to review how our program works with you, we encourage you to reach out to us. We're happy to help.

My experience with National Debt Relief has been a very rewarding one. They are very concern with helping you get out of debt and very understanding when it comes to personal hardships after they have taken out the money allotted for your case. I know I will be out of debt soon with this company because they do work fast!!!.

Very good at what they do to make you feel this is a legal way to fight credit card debt. It seems the more I pay the quicker but it sorta defeats the propose of using them. My credit has dropped tremendously and now I can't buy much using credit rating

Very professional operation did everything as promised. Only had one issue. Through the process you are directed to change your mailing address to their New York address for all your creditors. My lack of research and no mention from NDR Of the fact that all the creditors with charge offs report them to the irs and notify you via mail with a 1099-C . All your erased debt is to be reported as income (I never thought of this) All your mail from these creditors now goes to New York so that’s where all the 1099-C statements went. Got a letter two was before Christmas that i failed to report $17000. Erased debt as income and i owe the IRS $4000. Fit to be tied should have been clear from the start of the process

I like them, however, I don't appreciate getting an email you agreed on said number, I approve said number then a few hours later getting a new email saying you agreed on a new and higher said number. Then you wouldn't even lessen your fees to make up the difference. Don't send emails to customers saying you agreed on a number until it's actually for sure the number. Super unprofessional and makes the customer extremely upset.

I began with this company in February of 2014 and completed the program as of August of this year (2017). I just finished an excel spreadsheet analyzing how much I paid in fees and how much they were able to settle accounts. Overall (between the fees they charge the settlement amounts paid) I wound up paying 76% of what I owed in debt. The reality of it is, an individual can settle their own debt themselves if they have enough self control to set aside a monthly minimum to pay their debtors. All the debtors accepted a monthly payment until the settlement amount was reached. One account wound up filing a law suit but NDR was quick to communicate and settle with the debtor before it ever reached court. Needless to say, between the fees and their lack to settle ALL accounts for 50% or less than what is owed ... it's not really worth it. I wouldn't recommend this company and I'm glad the program is over. I actually had to remove an account toward the end because they refused to negotiate until the account went to a 3rd party collection company. It was the last account and the money to pay it was just sitting there. I got smart and saved myself the headache by removing this creditor from the program and ending the program rather than waiting for them and letting the account age further. Choose another Debt Relief program with lower fees and faster service.

Good customer service overall but a couple of their reps made critical errors that led to a lawsuit and additional legal fees which they should've paid but didn't. Also encountered surprisingly rude reps a couple of times. Potential clients: study contract carefully before committing. Their settlements won't always be as high as you think; fees accumulate, are not trivial; projected number of payments may be based on you making extra deposits you didn't commit to; may tell you monthly deposits must increase or risk extending your payments; some accounts may be sit around until frustrated creditors file suit. Also note that any settlements above $500 are reported to IRS. You'll receive a 1099-C form and many will owe income tax on these amounts. These are additional fees that I didn't find out about until I received my first 1099-C. NDR never mentioned this pre-contract. I regret not managing my own debt settlement. It's not rocket science, folks. Main reason for going with NDR was to make sure I didn't get sued. I got sued, it was avoidable, never should've happened. Five stars is fair based on my experience.
