Here is a thread about them:

There sure are a lot of different debt relief companies/scams/etc with the word "Integrity", isn't there? Solid info is hard to find. So many names mentioned in connection with it/them.
Some more info: "http://trado.info/node/138"
That post has very valid info on it.
However, I have worked at payment processing centers and the letters are opened by hand and machine. The machine slices the top, air blows in, and suction cups hold the front & the back of the envelope so you can just grab the free standing stub and check. Here it gets tricky, though. For ONE company, we were requested to put any stubs with writing on them into a different stack. These were put into different batches so a whole batch of written on stubs would be together, where they were forwarded to the communications dept for processing. But this was AFTER the check was already endorsed.
The "however" comes in now - that was the ONLY company that did that, the rest ignored the notes and processed the payment as normal, unless the Address Change box was *clearly* marked (I mean clear enough to see it fast - it's a high speed operation).
So the premise that signing the check automatically changes the contract is nonsense. Companies have been sued for doing just that, because it is deceptive. They would send you a check, and by cashing it you agreed to be under their (usually expensive) contractual services.
BUT, that said -
NO ONE has sued them in Federal Court. They show
0 complaints on the BBB. Considering that their BBB file was opened in Dec 2005, that is nearly a miracle for a company so many people call a scam. I did find many, many, many anonymous allegations. But NO legitimate, documented complaints?
Anonymous attacks mean nothing more than some people have time to waste and the pettiness to waste it in such churlish pursuits.
