During the time of quarantine, I had emailed my advisor and asked for assistance because I had 5 college age and 2 high school age students living with me. I never heard back or was contacted. I feel as if during this time, National Debt could have worked better with me.

I called to lower my monthly amount because I am having some serious unexpected surgery and have many medical bills. The representative said that I couldn’t keep the $250 a month and had to raise it to $285. I hope I can make it because my medical is outrageous. If I can’t my only alternative will be bankruptcy.

I think the negotiations with my creditors has taken way too long and it’s completely ruined my credit.

This has been a terrible experience. They have taken $$$$$ from us , ruined our credit, haven’t helped us with our debt, in fact we owe more now than when we started the program. That’s not including the constant harassing calls from Natl Debt Relief themselves, demanding you increase your bi-weekly payments, and threatening to drop your account if you don’t. ( these tactics don’t start until after you have been served with lawsuits from the very creditors they are supposed to be helping you with). Also, their “agents” are call center reps and you never speak with the same person twice. We finally called a lawyer and pulled out of the program. We’re gonna try to build our lives back up while we still have some pieces left to pick up. This is a long term SCAM. Don’t believe any of their advertising claims. They take advantage of people who are desperate.

At first was great, no calls, but after a while of monitoring my account, creditors were getting minimal payments, and fees, fees, fees. Account balance is going up, yet, the money isn't being sent as additional to get the accounts paid off. My monthly payments to NDR are higher than what I owe on some accounts. With the settlement fee, some accounts settled at the amount I owed, or pending higher.. No savings there. Credit score, don't bother... Mine dropped 65 points in a matter of months. The bigger accounts are still sitting untouched.

Awful organization, they work a settlement amount out, and present you with a payment option up front, but don’t expect that number to stick. They will constantly hound and harass you for money, they will send you approvals for payoffs and AFTER you approve the payoff, they will send another approval that forces you to call in, and wait for it, they ask you to pay more money... They did little to nothing to help settle debts and continually asked for more money, the shady practice of you approving an agreement through their system and then turning around weeks later to tell you you can only approve that if you send more money is reprehensible. And the initial amount they tell you will not stick it will continually grow as more accounts enter into “agreement” I would never recommend or work with again... it is a waste and an additional stress that doesn’t not need to be added.

This company is fraud . I have a debt of 33K in 4 credit card . After one year "The Law Office of Robert S. Gitmeid" took 10K from me and didnt pay any single dollar to the creditor. One of the creditor didn't listen to this program - Discover bank took all my outstanding money $4000 from my personal account as garnish payment after 1 year. All credit card company file lawsuit against me .When I called "The Law Office of Robert S. Gitmeid" , they said they can not do any thing . They can try only and I asked them to return my fees as none of the creditor is listening to this national debt relief program. They said they can not return any of the money or fees . Now I have lost another 10K and I have another 10K negative balance and lost 1 year .Please beware about this program, none of the creditor listening from this company. They are fraud.

I am a current customer of NDR... When I started with them I paid biweekly amount of 143.50.... I changed my payment to once a month and suddenly I am paying 323.00... I pay for the legal every month and still get taken to court. I am confused as to how they settle for the lowest amount possible..... considering their fee is a % of what they settle your debt for. It does not give them much incentive to settle low now does it. I field constant calls regarding settlements they know my monthly payment will not cover.... They also tried to get me a loan through Liberty ( Which shares the same physical address as National Debt Relief. Sorry to say I'm kind of stuck with these people now. My first settlement was settled low, but the 700.00 charge to settle it Also put the final amount way above what I owed in the first place. I will be on the look out for another company or maybe when I do have some extra funds I will cancel and negotiate on my own..... One thing for sure there will not be a 25% fee when I settle the debt! Most of my stuff is already charged off and in collections, so they should be ripe for low settlements. I often wonder if these ridiculous settlements are made up, considering that once you hire NDR, you can no longer speak directly with the collections companies or creditors. I agree with most of the reviews... STAY AWAY! File Bankruptcy!

I enrolled in April. 18k in debt. The first card they settled was my discover with an original debt of 1944. They agreed to 1467 and charged me a 486 fee. You tell me. Is it worth it? They charged me what they saved me and that is not counting the monthly transaction fees and the optional 12 a month for legal service if I do get sued.

I've been with the NDR for 8 months with on time payments They settled one account out of 4. I thought things were going well. I opted for the monthly fee which provides legal security as well. Experienced a minor stroke and other health issues in April. Again, payments have not faltered. I got a call yesterday with a sales pitch about what a great customer I have been and I have been chosen for this amazing opportunity. They claim to be able to settle all of my debt in 90 days at an amazing % since my last account was settled for less than 50% of my debt. . . by their top notch negotiation team. Sound too good to be true? It is. They want to pass me along to a rep from Liberty for a loan. They want me to take out a loan at 21% interest so they can get their money up front. The sales pitch continues that if I don't I may have to pay my entire debt or a very high percentage of it if NDR can't negotiate it down (I know. . .what the heck?) . . .then I would possibly face companies taking me to court, and of course that would be very stressful. No one seems to be able to tell me how much this loan is for either. I have to agree to the terms up front and then they'll tell me a few weeks from now how much the loan is for. Are you kidding? I paid for legal protection, remember?. I agreed to a preset payment which would get me out of debt in 3 years, remember? If I can pay more, I will. Sending me out to loan sharks puts me back right where I started. I don't know if this is a new direction the company is taking, but I'm considering contacting the district attorney's office and filing a complaint.

I was lied to the very first day by NDR by two workers. This should tell you right away stay away. Little did I know about all the problems that are still happening. They tell me that I spoke with someone NO one ever called me. Yesterday a Manager was suppose to call back the manager never did. I requested Two years for a HOspital bill be a Priority NO onw II repeat NO one has done anything. The last women I spoke me that NDR called in May no one answered the phone . IT's two years wake UP!Please stay away it has cost me more money dealing with company that you could imagine. You don'y get the 40 per cent off the creditors balance in one case I paid more. I paid this company a lump sum to pay 3 bills off. They decided to do it in installment .There isn'y enough money to pay for the three remaining creditors. GO THE BANKRUPTCY ROUTE MUCH CHEAPER AND NO HEADACHES LIKE THE ONE I GET WHEM I DEAL WIYH THIS COMPANY' PLEASE STAY AWAY.

One star is Far more than this company Deserves, if there was negative stars i would give 5. I start my debt relief with this company because i was in a tight spot and they had good reviews. However shortly after enrolling I Inherited Substantial money. At that point repeated call an pleaded with the Company to settle all of my creditor immediately that i am willing to Pay more then what I enrolled into the program for. Several months pass with many pleas to settle to no avail. Then I revived a court summons for one of my enrolled accounts (witch they haven't even started negotiate on ). Finally after 8 months of pleading with National Debt Relief they Finally settled my Accounts. However after reviewing my Statement I Noticed $3151.02 in random service fees that wasn't expressed in neither my service contract nor verbally, and they say I still owe them $1899.07. So my recommendation is run for the Hills and warn anyone to stay away from this company. Not one person i spoke to with their company fallowed threw with what they say just a lot of false promises.

Katie Kansas City, MO

don't think I ended up saving any money in the end. I began the program with 3 debts totaling $13,800 and settled with $8,700 which is great. BUT there is a $3k fee to participate in the program, and in order to pay off the settlement amount I was told the best route was to take a loan through an affiliate company with an interest rate of 23.46% APR. In addition my credit score dropped significantly because of closing my credit cards AND not making payments on them for 9 months. There is also a W9 given at the end of the year for forgiven debt taxes owed. In my case this amount is just around $400. So overall, yes it was nice to have one payment per month instead of 3 and I may have saved in interest over time from the credit cards if I had not gone through the program. But as of right now, 2 years after beginning the program I have paid $2,400 in interest on the loan and $3,000 to be in the program. I still have about $8,000 left to pay. Thank God I have a better job now so I can start to knock that amount down quickly, but as of right now the program has saved me a total of -$736 off of my original $13,800 How is that for a saving? My credit is slowly recovering, but no where near where it was before AND I am unable to qualify for credit card. So building credit is very slow. I would recommend instead going through Financial Peace University by Dave Ramsey. Absolutely.

I would never do this again. The stress and worrying about having to go to court is horrible. My credit is now below 600. I was not informed that I had to have a percentage of the money in my account before they would even contact the companies. The fees NDR charges are over $21.00 a month. I got a letter from one of my creditors threatening to take me to court and the man I spoke with at NDR was acting as though I was bothering him and he never reassured me that they would contact the credit union like I asked. I still have no idea if they contacted them. They do not keep you up to date on what's going on with your account. I've only been with NDR since the end of March and I am already a nervous wreck.

I worked with this company for a year. In that time, all three of my accounts have been charged off. For months, I was told that one of my accounts was resolved and payments were completed. However, as soon as I asked for a paid in full letter, all of sudden, it was NOT resolved. NDR had only paid one payment out of three. Total scam artists. They had taken $1500 in fees over the past year & had accomplished nothing. It took WEEKS of calling several times to get them to agree to refund the $1500 in fees. There was absolutely zero benefit to being in this program the past year. Only frustration, lies, and being flat out stolen from. They have finally agreed to refund the fees, but I am STILL waiting to see that deposit show up in my bank account. AVOID THIS COMPANY AT ALL COSTS. They are extremely misleading & in my case, actually lied and stole from me. If I believed everything they said, they would have gotten away with stealing $1500 from me. Terrible business, complete scam artists, making a buck off a very vulnerable and desperate population. Please do not ever trust these people! I am writing this review to hopefully help someone else not get involved with this deceitful company!
