As always, for consumers who are doing business with any debt relief company they may not be familiar with I always urge they check out the company first. Here are a few of my free guides to do this.

Not being familiar with the three new members I took a cursory look at them. But I would be ever so grateful if any consumer using their services could provide feedback of their experience in the comments below.
USAvsDEBT
100 Highland Park Village
Suite 200
Dallas, TX 75205
The address is a virtual office managed by Regus. – Source
The State of Texas website does not show a company named USAvsDebt, Inc. but does show a company named USA Versus Debt, Inc. That company states it is actually located at 5890 Grossetto Drive, Frisco, Texas. The company president is Valerie Edwards. – Source
USAvsDebt claims they “provide financial and spiritual freedom suited to your long term goals. We provide debt reduction thus enabling our client’s peace of mind.” – Source
USDC Student Loan Services
4695 MacArthur Court
11th Floor
Newport Beach, CA 92660
The address is a virtual office managed by Regus. – Source
The State of California website could not locate any company registered to do business under the name USDC Student Loan Services.
However the website for USDC Student Loan Services identified the company as USDC Consulting, LLC who is registered in California as of August 6, 2013. No company officers are identified.
Oddly they also identify themselves as US Debt Co.
Even their domain ownership is hidden so it is not possible to identify the officers or members behind this company using public records.
As of 8-17-2013 the owner of the domain usdcstudent.com was listed as Joshua Brown at 220 Newport Center Drive Suite 11-569, Newport Beach, California.
Student Loan Consolidation Center
210 North University Drive
Suite 800
Coral Springs, FL 33071
When I looked up the street view of this building I instantly recognized it as the same building Military Det Management was located in. See this article. Small world.
The Student Loan Consolidation Center raised a couple of red flags. They are using an Obama video on the front page, a process that was frowned upon in debt settlement marketing and they say “Student Loan Consolidation Center works with the Department of Education” which could be misconstrued that they have some official relationship which I doubt they do. – Source
According to the State of Florida, Student Loan Consolidation Center is an LLC and the managers are Monetary Management Systems, Inc. and Clutch Marketing. These managers replaced BT Breazeale, II and Christopher Young on July 12, 2013. – Source
Interestingly these previous articles questioned the relationship of a Young and Breazeale to Military Debt Management.
The company was registered in Florida on February 18, 2013.
Clutch Marketing, Inc has Christopher Young at its president. Thomas Breazeale, III is the president of Monetary Management Systems according to the State of Florida. The company was previously called American Mutual Financial Management.
