We looked into ABC Debt Relief as an option to financial difficulties. The support people seemed clear and eager to answer any questions. We were ready to proceed with the program until we read the terms and conditions which basically stated there is no quarantee ABC can get the creditors to settle. So you end up paying ABC a percentage of your intial debt amount, even if they cannot settle your debt with a particular company. Your basically paying them to call up your creditors and settle, that's it!! Well why would I pay them $7,000.00 to do something I CAN DO!! If you want to really save yourself some money call up your cards and settle the amount yourself!!!I never sent back the signed and authorized contract. They debited my savings account anyway without authorization. We initally gave them the acct no. for preliminary info. which was our mistake right there. So in the end they cost us $100.00 in bank fees.

there last withdrawal was supposed to be an august 09, i just saw another withdrawal in sept and now i'm going to have bounced checks. I can't stop anything unless i pay a fee on top of this mess. don't trust them.
ABC is the biggest scamers out there. Do not even think about hiring them, they will tell you not to respond to any of your creditors while they sit back and take your money. why would any real company charge you before they even start to negotiate with your creditors? You can do what they claim to do yourself, just wait until your debts are purchased by a collection agency and settle directly with them and you will save $2,000 which is what they will take from you with out even providing any service.
I was wondering if anyone has info on E-limidebt company......I have just signed up with them and according to the site and speaking with them they have good ratings......I continue to get calls from my creitors about collections

Yes this company is scamming from people. They say they are helping, but they are NOT!! After months of collecting money from my wife and I, we decided to further look into it. Guys they are full of it the amounts decrease within time and finally it gets smaller and smaller. Your credit is screwed and ABC wants to make it seem like they did you a favor. Sadly enough my wife and I still had to file for a chapter 7 bankruptcy, but We did file a complain on BBB Website and called channel 4, 5 and 8 news to tell them as well until we get refunded for the amount they owe us since they technically did not provide us with any service they claimed they did. Here is the BBB link http://www.bbb.org/dallas/business-r...as-tx-90061431
ABC Debt Relief is a scam 100%. I used their services (or complete lack or services) for six months. They told me they were engaging my creditors and that they had sent an engagement letter to all of them. This turned out to be a complete lie! In fact, I filed a complaint against them with the Attorney General's Office and was asked to help give a statement to the media regarding the danger of these companies. To the ABC Debt Relief employees that have been posting on here pretending to be customers, I will say that I hope you have a hard time living with yourself for all of the terrible things you have done to people.

Abc Debt relief is not just a scam, these people are thirds.

From me and I will not give up until they close and are in jail.
By signing up for counseling session, your provided details (Name, Email ID and Phone No.) will be forwarded to the company advertising on the DebtCC. However, you have no obligation to use their services.
Some creditors and collection agencies refuse to lower the pay off amount, interest rate, and fees owed by the consumer.
Creditors/collection agencies can make collection calls and file lawsuits against the consumers represented by the debt relief companies.
Debt relief services may have a negative impact on the consumer's creditworthiness and his overall debt amount may increase due to the accumulation of extra fees.
The amount which the consumer saves with the use of debt relief services can be regarded as taxable income.
