Has anyone heard of Unified Financial Solutions in Boynton Beach, FL? I spoke with someone there last week and again today about debt settlement. They kept talking about no complaints with the bbb and that they are members of tasc. I am current on my finances right now and have good credit.

I can`t even find their report on the BBB. They must be brand new so of course they don`t have any complaints yet with the BBB. I did check and they are members of TASC. Honestly I would shop around with other settlement companies and compare.

Thanks for the help. I am waiting on a call back from a couple of other companies. One of them is debt settlement America, which i have read some good and bad things about. This is overwhelming to say the least. I will keep you posted. Once again thanks Mobile.

I worked at Unified Financial for 2 weeks. Save your money and go with someone else. They overcharged my own girlfriend. The manager Anthony Fabrizio is a complete idiot who needs a good slap in the face.

Past employee's should reference the employee manual they sign prior to making any comments online regarding anything that could in any way shape or form demean the company’s reputation. Furthermore, In house counsel will contact this board’s administrator to investigate the identity of the person or persons responsible for posting this information. The employee whose name is referenced will also be notified and could potentially move forward with legal action once the poster is identified. Furthermore, Unified Financial Solutions is a referral based company. Acushield Financial who is the recipient of Unified's qualified clients is responsible for handling all customer service and negotiations. Acushield for the record does have a satisfactory record with the BBB. Additionally, has settled 160 million dollars in consumer debt. Some of the largest debt settlements companies in the country have not accomplished even half of that.

Haha. You have to love when one anonymous guest threatens to track down another anonymous guest and sue over some random post. I hate to break it to you but the chances of IP tracking a non registered guest is pretty slim. Compound that with a judge actually caring about this post and your chance of accomplishing anything is approaching zero fast and furious.

Interesting to see that once again another company is affiliated with Acushield, that would be the Acushield that was just in trouble with the the West Virginia Attorney General correct? That would be the Acushield that was once Debtco correct? For your information "Compliance" the $160 million dollars in consumer debt that has been settled is dating back to Debtco in 2000. It's looks as though Acushield has even given you "Compliance" false information. In respect for Scotish.Army who is a consumer that is now drawn into the mindset of most consumers who research debt settlement companies on the internet.

When working with a debt settlement company make sure that they do a complete detailed income & expense worksheet with you. Be aware that your credit will be hurt and that you will in most cases receive calls from bill collectors.

The guy who posted the comment about Unified is Jason Swinson. He couldnt sell debt settlement the right way so he enrolled his own girlfriend to remain employed. Anyway, he got fired for poor production. I sat right near him while he was employed at Unified. Still bitter Jason?

This is a consumer story from ripoff report . com

I first signed up for debt negotiation with DebtCo based in San Diego, CA in 2002. As part of the plan, I opted to do EFT to a 'set aside' account with them. I was pleased with the progress of debt negotiation even though it took a few years.

By the time my last account was up for negotiation, DebtCo had become 'AcuShield Financial.' Unfortunately, that's where the problem began. The last account was recommended for their 'Debt Dismissal' program. I talked to someone named Nick Riney in July of 2006 who assured me that it would take no longer than 3-6 months to determine whether the debt dismissal would work for that last account.

In December of 2006, I began calling Nick Riney to get a status of the debt dismissal effort and received no response. After a month, I got worried and began badgering the Customer Service people at AcuShield for answers. I received a MAJOR run-around from them until I used the word 'attorney.' I then received a call back from Nick Riney who made promises he didn't follow up on.

I finally heard that the debt dismissal had worked and that my set-aside funds would be debited $2500 and the rest of the funds ($3500) would be returned to me in 60 days.

I found out recently that my last debt had NOT been dismissed and have yet to receive any of my set aside funds from AcuShield. It has been two years now since my first discussions with Nick Riney in 2006 and after multiple phone calls and promises, I still have no results and no return of my funds! I am angry and upset that I've been treated this way.

As far as I'm concerned, AcuShield has stolen $5800 from me. At this point, I guess I will need an attorney to get any results.

Let this be a warning to others: They may get some of your debt negotiated but when it's all over, they will steal your set aside funds. Do not allow them to hold your money for negotiation purposes -- there's a new definition of 'thief' in the dictionary and it's AcuShield Financial!!

My name is Matthew Sechter and I am the owner of Unified Financial Solutions and if you have problems call me directly. Also DollarsandSince it is very easy for be to obtain the information from everyone that is posting on here.

I have been a client of Unified for the past 9 months and I am very happy with their services. I also checked Unified out on the BBB which they are not a part of. However, the organization of TASC is like the BBB for settlement companies. After doing my own research I do know that TASC doesn't certify a settlement company if they aren't legit or abide by certain guidelines

Actually I am quite bitter that Unified Financial Solutions is a complete scam and that you would even still be working there Aaron. However I just got of the telephone with the "real" Aaron and you should stop posting junk. By the way Mr. Sechter where is my last pay check? Should I report that to the state of Florida? Your name on google brings up some interesting stuff about Juicy Leads another scam company.
