There are two different Debt Settlement company Models. One is like a life gaurd or Brite debt solutions they do not contact your creditors until you have accumulated enough money to settle the debt and then they will settle your debt BUT they send a welcome package with Cease and desist letters that you have to send to your creditors yourself.
The second model is a Consumer Law Firm, with this type of settlement or Debt resolution company the lawyer contacts your creditor immediatly and if at some point you need legal representation they will provide that a company like Life gaurd or safetrust whatever they are this week will not. BUT no matter who you use the creditors will keep calling for a minimum of 30 days and say anything to scare you into sending them money Things like we don't accept settlments (every creditor accepts settlement except credit unions).
Debt settlement has been around since the 50's it is not a scam but pesonally I would rather deal with Lawyers than a typical debt settlement compnay.
A little side note the owners of LGF had a Loan Modification company they shut down just before opening LGF and left many people hanging with out finishing thier loan modification.

This company is a scam. I spoke to an attorney about my friends situation because she signed on with lifeguard. He told me that any company who makes you put money into a separate account is a fraud. You could put that money aside yourself without the fees and pay a credit card company the same way without the middle men. They don't deal with her creditors and she gets repeated phone calls. Watch out. These companies are praying on the innocent. They say they have an a rating but that is not true check for yourself. Why would you sign over power of attorney to your bank accounts to anyone. They can take everything you have.

They collect your money in some kind of an account before they contact your creditors and by then it's all gone to collections? Help me out. this whole deal sounds fishy. Is that SOP for debt companies. or they just go out of business and your holding the debt SOL?

To "the truth"-Lol, I'm a competitor now? Would a competitor suggest negotiating with creditors on your own?

And if people don't listen, then why are you guys wasting your time posting hollow rebuttals everywhere? Obviously, someone is listening, which is why you're responding, trying to save face.

This site is the main reason why I left NDRG. It lead to me investigate, and if you really look around, it's pretty evident that the same people behind Lifeguard are the ones behind NDRG. The checks say Lifeguard(as of Nov 2009), and the training module says Safetrust in it, on the rebuttals page. If you do a Google search on two of their offices, you will see that Lifeguard is still there under the businesses listed. Go on Google Maps, and put in 263 52nd St Brooklyn NY and 714 3rd Ave Brooklyn NY.

About the Facts! gave one of the dumbest explanations ever on why the offices still say Lifeguard. So you admit that the same people who bilked people out of money are under your umbrella now. That's all that needs to be said.

And why did you copy & paste this from the Complaints Board? It looks completely out of place here, especially since none of the issues you're addressing were posted here. Also, everything you said here has been refuted on other consumer boards, so maybe you should just leave it alone already. No reasonable human being can read what I've said(with links provided) and what you've said, and want to do business with you guys.

This is Safetrust/Lifeguard's new contract. They are now a "software company". There are no less then 6 companies listed on the agreement now. Take a moment and read the whole thing if you want a good laugh.
