Debt Cures

2 web sites he talks about

reply
no.because if you were reading the entire thread.we think he's a fraud.
Purchasing Debt Cures
Long time ago I purchased one of Kevins book by credit card, and when I did, my card was debited every month for some kind of membership to one of his clubs. It was hard to stop the bank from debiting my account. I had to close my account to keep Kevin from stealing my money.
what was the club? What was it supposed to offer you in lieu of

I think its funny, cause we all know how to get not in trouble, how to get out of trouble, but we dont always have the right tools or money to keep us from doing that. not many of us, just got up and put 100k on the cards just to go party and get wasted.. we did it to survive and get by through hard times..
Check It
Look folks....like him or not, he makes some good points. Might not be worth buying the book, especially seeing as you are in debt already. Here's a thought - do like I did and CHECK IT OUT FROM THE LIBRARY! It's FREEEEE!!

scam
Yes I got Kevin Trudeau's book on Debt Cures, yes I already knew and practiced most of what he said in the book, at 60 yrs old I already figured out a lot of things, yes I did learn one or two new things but.......my intertest was in getting a grant. After working 43 yrs, becoming a widow, and losing everything I worked for, for all those yrs. To care for my dying husband. I was in desperate need of help. Soooooooooo I went in search of a granny grant or just a grant for you kiddies. I have been reading, searching and applying for every grant that came down the pike for 3 months now and here is my results......................As told to me by numerous US agengy's (yes I have talked to the powers that be personally) THE US GOV "DOES NOT" GIVE GRANTS TO ANY US CITIZEN. Ever, you "have" to be a business or a school. Now you got this info for free. Thanks Pam

Kevin's suggestion didn't work for me
He said on the informercial to put in your name and let them tell you what monies you have coming to you. Nothing came up after i put my name in.
the debt cures
DO not buy. We did and are bank account got hit for over $300.00 Still havent got the book. they told us they would e-mail the confirmation # to me nothing. going to try and get money back for book and bank took care of the false charges on are account from russia. Please dont buy you will reget it

I opologize if im repeating something someone else has already said, but i did not feel like reading the last few pages!
I read this book and it is great, but its nothing that you cannot learn from this website. I sold it on ebay rather cheap but it was great to reference something if i wasnt on the net.
In my opinion save yourself the money and spend some time on this forum nothing that is in this book is anything that you could not learn from here for free with just a little time and effort.
but if you must feel that you need to have it to read, there are like 10 of these at our local salvation army/goodwill stores. check on ebay they are cheap there too expecially if you dont mind if it has been read before.
The problem with buying this book off of the tv that i hear is they try to sell you all this other crap to go with it. save the agervation and just stick around and you will learn all you need to know
This is what I think about the whole issue! I was curious about
This is what I think about the whole issue! I was curious about getting the book but after reading the reviews some people make interesting points about it. I say this, if he really care about people getting out of debt, he should've exposed the information for free. It shouldn't cost you to seek help for debt. This probably would have enhanced his credibility and kept people from knowing about his previous fraud!!!!! Besides he does say the book doesn't help all people. He needs to make it clear about who it helps!
I agree with the guest, its about getting help and if any part o
I agree with the guest, its about getting help and if any part of the book will make things a little better then that would be a good thing even if you don't get the whole shooting match and come out scott free.
Don't Buy it
I like all the Anonymous post stating not to buy something they haven't read.... HMMMM - i wonder who they work for (Visa)..... (Master Card) .... (AMEX)

also one thing that i would like to add about this book is that it does like he says has references to "grants" and such, but these grants are not for typical people like you an me.( ie the single mother with a handicapped child living in alaska may get 10,000 to go to a specific school) just a example from what i remember. or he would reference grant sites on the net that supposively help you find grants. (were they only charge you a reasonable rate for joining but cannot garuntee you anything) so the grant reference was totally useless for most people the average joe like me anyhow

Criticising Book Based On Gossip / Propaganda
This book is very valuable. Does it tell you stuff you can't find on the internet? No. But neither does a lawyer, or an accountant. It puts the information where you can read and find it easily.
I've read all of Kevin's stuff, and he makes a lot of money educating you about those who make a lot of money screwing you over. Do you seriously think the government hasn't targeted this guy for outing them? Are you really all sheeple? He's educating people, and blowing the whistle on a lot of very powerful agencies.
If you don't want it, don't order it, but stop parroting facts that you don't understand and using slander and other peoples' BS to support your ignorance. I can't believe how many people haven't even read his stuff and they're on here slamming it. Idiots. You deserve to be screwed over by the big boys.

I myself have read it, its good stuff, but i have also stated that everything you read in it can be found on this site you dont need to search around and its free.

The reason the shipping charges are so high is so they will profit from your purchase even if you return the book for a full refund, per their guarantee. Don't forget, you will have to pay the shipping charge to return the book, too, only it will be much less than the original shipping charge...

I have to agree with GARY. I found another review i think everyone should know about.
Anyone staying up late at night has probably seen an infomercial promoting one of Kevin Trudeau's latest "cures" books - weight loss cure and natural cures. I saw the infomercial for his latest one, Debt Cures, and wanted to see what it was about. This article will highlight my experience with ordering Debt Cure$.
Love him or hate him, Kevin Trudeau pushes people's buttons and gets them talking. Type in the title of one of his books and you'll see several complaints about his practices and then you'll also see some people praise his books.
So I was skeptical about this new book and wanted to offer a review.
I do not like ordering on the phone because the people on the other line have to try and sell you stuff related to the product you are purchasing because it is their job but when I ordered Debt Cures online I can imagine how bad it was for the people who have to call in.
The book sells for $29.95 and $11.95 shipping and handling. Why so much for shipping and handling? Amazon can give you free shipping for orders over $25 so why does this book cost so much to ship?
On the website, debtcures.com, it says due to higher shipping costs, higher fuel costs and inflation that they have to charge higher shipping and handling costs.
Alright fine. So after I order the book, I expect to be upsold a few other items. And I was not let down. On the website, Kevin Trudeau tried to sell me 5 additional products that if you bought would add over $200 to your order. That to me does not sound like a way to get out of debt. Not off to a good start.
Two weeks later the book arrives in a small box just like in one of the boxes you get from Amazon when you order some books.
The infomercial states that you'll learn stuff that has never been revealed before anywhere else about the credit and lending industry. After just reading the first 2 chapters I would have to disagree. Most of the stuff he wrote about is available for free online.
One of the main points of the first two chapters is that the banks, credit card companies, and the federal government are all in cahoots to try and keep you and me in debt so we can keep making them rich. This part is true. The credit card companies love it when you just make the minimum payments on your bills. They do not want you to get out of debt. They especially like it when you miss your payment or go over the limit so they can assess a hefty fee and even raise your interest rate.
This is all true and can be read about on many credit related websites.
He talks about the practices of the banks and credit card companies and how the government lets them get away with charging high interest rates and fees because they contribute money to their campaigns. Reading these chapter will get you mad if you are not already at how much debt you have and how the lenders try and squeeze more money out of you.
Chapters 4 and 5 are where Kevin Trudeau starts to deliver on his Debt Cures promises. He offers actionable points on how to eliminate your debt, negotiate your debt down and reduce your interest rates. Some of this is also available online elsewhere but in the folksy way that Kevin talks, he makes it easy to understand and easy to take action by providing examples of what to do and say.
If you have a few thousand dollars and debt and use one of these methods to lower the amount you have to pay then the cost of the book is already paid for even if you are overcharged for shipping and handling.
In a follow up article, I will cover the remaining chapters of the book and point out the remaining good and not so good points.
Debt Cures has a passing vote so far even though Mr. Trudeau has a less than stellar reputation. But do no let that get in the way of getting help with your debt problems. This book and others like it can provide practical solutions to lowering what you owe and getting you out of the many burdens debt can put you in.

i hope kevin goes to jail for a long long time. and then someone tell him that for only $19.95 he can find out how to get out of jail, and all the other secrets that inmates want to know about, that the gov. does not want him to know. then sit back and watch him serve the rest of his sentence, reading the book the entire time. realizing that there is no such secret....dumba*$. such a phony.

The letters (in the book)that you can send to the aggressive creditors are very helpful. People please don't judge before you read. It's worth the read, and especially for my teenager who will get a heads up about our corrupt Credit Card Industry. Thumbs UP !!!
Scam
The books have good information but if you order them AGREE TO NOTHING!!! The operator will try to sell you additional services. AGREE TO NOTHING. They are all scams. I was promised 10-$10 gas cards. I have received nothing! I have received 5 charges from 2 different companies WITHOUT AUTHORIZATION! They companies claim that I signed up for something when I ordered these books. If you can, get the books from a store. Again, AGREE TO NOTHING no matter how good the deals sound. THEY ARE TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE, THEY ARE A SCAM!!!
Debt Cures?????????????
I called acompany requesting lower interest rate they immediately drop my limit by $5000 dollars, They said I was a crdit risk for asking for rate reduction, Has this happen to anyone else,
Do not order anything from this company!!! They are a scam!! Wha
Do not order anything from this company!!! They are a scam!! What a waste of money!!
Hey DONT DO IT!!

This company Cure My Debts which is also American Debts LLC is a fraudulent company. I only spoke to them over the phone and asked them to send me some paperwork so I could review their conditions. Then, all the sudden just by me asking them for information I had entered into a "verbal contract" with them. Now I am not a stupid person. I did not just misunderstand and I am not easily coerced. These are definately people paid to sit there and trained to steal people's money. My advice..and this is what I did. I stopped paying my credit card that I was going to sign up with debt management. Of course the phone calls start you just tell the creditor you are going to wait and see if they can settle. Credit card companies have about 4 months they can wait and if you tell them you are interested in settling your debt after 4 months they will call and they settled my debt for like 25% of what I owed. It was a better deal than even offered to me by Cure My Debt. Just so you know even tho all my credit cards are paid off...these scoundrels from Cure My Debt are still illegally taking money out of my account with no authorization whatsoever. BEWARE!! and just do it yourself.

My mom passed this book along to me so I wasn't suckered into paying anything for it. I've been reading through the book for about a week now, and no I do not have poor comprehension, I just have a life and do not have time to read a book in one sitting.
The first half of the book seems to be pretty repetitive and you definitely get the "hint" that he hates the government. I have to say there are a couple things in the book that I was unaware of but most of it I did already know, but only because I do try to read up on credit scoring and such when I have free time.
Overall, I'd say this book is worth buying for the average person who doesn't know much about your options of getting out of debt. Yes, there are people out there like that and just because no one has ever educated them on the matter it does not mean they should be ashamed to want to learn it now. A lot of people have said it is common information that can be read on the internet. Yes, you can find just about anything you want to know on the internet, but most of us don't have time to do a ton of research. This book puts everything in simple everyday terms for the average person to be able to follow.
Maybe he is a scam artist, I don't know, but I think it's a decent book.
If you want some great financial advice find a copy of The Riche
If you want some great financial advice find a copy of The Richest Man in Babylon, it's been in continuous print since the 1920's and is still full of solid advice, including how to get out of debt. And please stop worrying about your credit score, in fact that should be the very last thing on anyone's mind. To even have a credit score number you must be in debt, the greater the debt and the longer you are in it, yes your number will rise, so what, you are paying through the nose for it. And what do you really have to show for all that debt? A house, garage, and rented storage unit full of things you never use? Make a list of all the things you actually use over a months time, most will be the things you use every day,then make a list of all the stuff you have that you didn't use even once.
Debt Cures 2
I ordered this book. I was very nervous about the order. When it arrived I sent it back via refusal. They keep your money and thier books. $157.00 is how much richer they are for everyone dumb enough to order from them. They also do not have the best reputation in the world.
Sincerely and Beware,
Not happy. Oh by the way they accuse the Post Office of throwing them away, rather than returning them. Postage was over $20.00. :evil:
debtcure cancellation
The info provided is common sense and when you try and cancel the revolving 14.95 a month by phone they have technical difficulties. A person must call and get customer service. So DON'T get it. If you want to read the book go to the library, its free!!
Reading the first book...got it from the library and has some p
Reading the first book...got it from the library and has some points. Always educate yourself and don't sign anything until you really KNOW what you are getting into! Checked out Debtor's Annonymous....ok organization but they really don't give any guidance..it's all very Kumbaya and non-judgemental as far as I see. Like this site I just chanced upon today.
be smart.
:-? listen i bought this book. its useless. a bunch of babble. thats it. you have to use logic here. if you are gettng in a financial trouble start planning. call the creditors ahead of time. most of them will work with you. but they will not work with you if are 30 days late. so dont. as for saving money. use coupons. cut the cable extras. cut going out for dinner and start cooking at home. smart foods. not junk. we have to do what our parents and grandparents did. we are a waste society. that has to change. pay stuff in cash. buy american. buy american.
Just Another Add
Did You Not Notice That This Was Also A Sales Pitch? Who Was The Link..... Ummm Russel Brunson?;)
Fed Up
People look around, who continues to gain? Our government! How many people have been treated unfairly in a court of law? If thier words are the evidence to stop you from buying his books, I say trust Kevin. And as far as them offering you the moon, to buy when you call in, they all do it. I had it happen to me too, and it wasn't anything to do with Kevin. It was something else. Pay attention to charges on your checking account. They will reimburse you, they did me. If you get one thing out of the book that helps you, then it is worth it. So please if you have no evidence outside our judicial system, SHUT UP!!!!!!!
moron
you are an idiotic shill.trudeau has been in court more often than zuckerberg.he is a scam artist and you replied to a thread well over a year old.weird considering he has a new scam that popped up.so to the loser who trumpets a shyster that is gonna burn.you can SHUT UP!!!!!!!
