Wow- Nice.
It appears they are on the good guys side. The manner in which your paragraph describes them “ACCORD is another debt settlement trade association that states they are “a not-for-profit organization that was established to promote advocacy of consumer oriented debt settlement programs to professionals, legislators, regulatory agencies and consumers.””
Steve, it sounds as though you don’t buy it- No?
I don’t know them from a hole in the ground. Just reporting how they describe themselves.

k- I guess if they are what they say they are… Be kind of a nice change from the status quo- BTW- That last co’s address no-longer appears
It appears the main purpose of this organization is to promote the new fee model of no setup fees, just settlement fees. Their site says:
“ACCORD has six core objectives:
Promote debt settlement programs that charge no fees until service is provided along with fees based on the amount of savings achieved for the consumer through legislative and regulatory initiatives.”
