Their BBB reports reflects an "A" rating. I checked them out after being contacted for a debt settlement program. I spoke with a guy named Tim who was very informative and gave me all the pros and cons regarding debt settlement. I saw other posts here about them when I Googled them and I thought I would just put me 2 cents in. I have talked to other companies in the past who tried to hard sell me into signing up but I think if I move forward with this option I will probably go with Lifeguard.

That's good news. I've heard good things about them. I think it is also important that everyone realize the truth about the BBB. They are not a national company with the same systematic rules. They are actually franchise based with different rules from state to state. In the state of Maryland the BBB can give a debt settlement company who has been in business for 3 years without one single complaint a 'F' rating simply b/c they disagree with the industry.

I encourage everyone to check into the BBB for complaints. See how many there were and how/if the company resolved the issue. PLEASE do not base it simply on the BBB's rating.

The debt settlement process is quite complicated, Yet individuals from this company are trained to sell this product and enroll the client all in the same day. As a debt settlement agent and trainer i find it ridiculous that there are all these BOGUS posts and replies such as " They helped me and now i am debt free" or "I signed papers and the call stopped". Come on! are you serious? Does this really sound like a consumer.

Although i am in the debt settlement industry i will not tell you i am the only company out there. THIS IS WHAT I SUGGEST YOU CONSIDER BEFORE YOU DECIDE ON DEBT SETTLEMENT COMPANY:

1. TASC (tascsite.com) is the only honorable organization within the debt settlement industry. DO NOT LET ANYONE TELL YOU OTHERWISE!. ANY COMPANY WHO IS A MEMBER OF THIS ORGANIZATION ARE UNDER A STRICT CODE OF CONDUCT THAT THE ORGANIZATION PROCLAIMS. There are about 100 companies that you can research on this site. ALL OTHER COMPANIES CAN BECOME MEMBERS, HOWEVER THEY CHOOSE NOT TO REGISTER BECAUSE THEY VIOLATE GUIDELINES THAT TASC PROCLAIMS JUST FOR THE PURPOSE OF BEING MORE PROFITABLE.

2. NO COMPANY HAS THE ABILITY TO MAKE SURE CREDITORS STOP CALLING YOU IMMEDIATELY, IT USUALLY TAKES 90 DAY 120 DAYS AFTER NOT PAYING CREDITORS. ANYONE THAT TELL YOU OTHERWISE....PLEASE TAKE THAT AS A SIGN OF "ILLEGITIMATE COMPANY".

3. DOES THE COMPANY GIVE FULL DISCLOSURE OF FEES?
NEVER ACCEPT ONE OF THESE ANSWERS:
- "ALL FEES ARE INCLUDED IN THE MONTHLY PAYMENT?
- " FEES ARE 15 % " (15 % OF WHAT)

I HOPE THIS CAN BE HELPFUL TO SOME CONSUMERS OUT THERE.

These guys are bad news. . I am shocked that Bill McCullough is asleep on this one. You can call up the Florida Attorney General Consumer Assistance number to find out how many complaints they have. I think that they have reached the magic number of 75 and now a file is open with economic crimes.

There is a guy in nj who owns a branch of lifeguard financial, craig s,and has a partner brian lee. Both of these guys have trained their employees to lie and steal from consumers. This company is the biggest scam ever. When you ask any one of the loan officers how they sell each deal,they will tell you themselves that they are not confident in the company, and they feel they may be stealing from innocent consumers but they have to make a living.

Why is it that their phone numbers and website aren't working then? I enrolled with them and have not been able to get a hold of them since.
