Company Name: Helping America Group
Describe the Service You Received:
I recently signed up with them and it didn’t take me but a few phone calls to realize that I’d been had. I signed up and spoke with a very personable and friendly guy who talked to me about getting a loan to pay off my debt and how they were different from other debt consolidation companies. After talking to him and signing a contract very quickly, I was then put on the phone with someone who told me the exact opposite of what he’d said. It was indeed a debt consolidation company. But what’s worse were the phone calls from all of the “affiliated” companies who informed me that the loan that I was approved for was simply put into place to “Improve” my credit score and that none of the money would be going towards my creditors. Oh, and by the way…I should stop paying my creditors because then they could get the charges dismissed or sue them for harassing me. They keep the money from the lawsuits to help pay off any debts that they can’t get cancelled. I feel so duped and frustrated. I would never have signed up for a $30K loan if I’d know that it wasn’t going towards my debts. Now my credit is even more in the toilet and I have more debt that I can’t pay. I’m at the end of my rope.
