CountryWide Debt Relief Reviews

In a nutshell, my experience with them was pretty awesome. They helped me out quite a bit and I really appreciated their help. Lynda was very helpful.

I looked at some of the reviews online and liked what I’ve seen regarding CountryWide. Their customer service was good and I worked with Socorro. Any questions that I had, they answered for me. The program took about two and a half years, and I saw the benefits from using it quickly. They pay off one account at a time, so as soon as they start getting paid on you start seeing it. I would tell others that it was worth it.

When I was searching on the internet for a debt relief place to help me, CountryWide Debt Relief came out on the search. I called and one of the representatives was very nice, cordial and helpful. He explained to me, from A to Z, how the program works. I said, “Let me give it a try,” and started right away. I had a good experience with the negotiator. They explained the whole process and how long it was going to take. I was in the program for three years until I finished paying. And when I did, I was really relieved.

CountryWide helped me with my bills. I paid the debt that was owed, but I still haven’t received some information that I got from them. But all in all, I love them to death. I did what they told me to do, which I paid them on time, kept money in the bank, and everything was fine. I appreciate that. When I had a problem, I would call, and they answered my questions. So I really appreciate them being there for me.

I went to CountryWide to help me settle my debts. I investigated a few and it seemed to be the most attractive to me at the time. They asked for all of my credit verification, the paperwork from different companies, for credit cards and I mailed all of that to them. They told me what their process was and they took over, and bit by bit they settled these various debts. I didn’t have to do that myself because they negotiated for me.

I hurt my back and I lost my job so I had a lot of debt I couldn’t pay after that. I paid a certain amount each month to CountryWide and they negotiated all my loans and finally got them paid off. My first one was something like 11,000 and we settled that for seven. My credit had dropped down to like 500, and now it’s back up to seven something. The debt settlement process with CountryWide took a few years but I'm glad I did it. If I didn’t do it, I woulda had all kinds of lawsuits. I’d recommend CountryWide because they even sued one of the companies which was calling me after 8 o’clock at night. We won a couple of thousand dollars and CountryWide got 1,500.

CountryWide paid all my debt. The process was easy 'cause I speak Spanish and they spoke to me in Spanish. They explained to me and they were responsive. It was a good deal 'cause I extended the program for a couple of months and everything was okay. I'm finished now and I'm satisfied.

I sought to throw all my debts into one and get rid of it. CountryWide sent me a letter and they seemed better. They called the creditors and made an offer, and then they took the money out of my account and paid the creditors. I didn’t have to deal with any more calls as they took care of it. However, they should let us know when they close the accounts so that we know it’s done, because I still don’t know which one is closed and which one is left. I haven’t had a final letter and I’m still waiting on that.

My brother had his bills consolidated through CountryWide and he told me about it. The debt settlement process was good and I've completed the program. I was impressed with the way people treated you in there and how they wanted much to help you. If I needed to delay a payment or make one a little bit sooner, they would work with me on changing a date as long as I called them with enough time. I appreciated that very much and they made it easy for me. Working with CountryWide has made my life a lot better and a lot more stress-free. We get to do a little bit more things that we didn’t used to before. I’m very happy with them and I even had my daughter do it through them.

The CountryWide people that I set up with were great but I didn't speak with them after. I was getting emails from somebody and I would email them back that I agreed. But no one stayed in contact with me through the whole process. That's how it's supposed to happen but that didn't happen. Also, I couldn't use the online service. It never let me log in. I then tried to get access and they expedited the whole issue.

We were just drowning and CountryWide brought us back from the brinks of hell. We chose them as they seemed to be the easiest to work with. They were able to split up our payments. I had two payments a month. We could call and try and skip a payment if we had an emergency. When my mother died and I needed to go home for the funeral, I was able to call and ask if I could miss the payment that time and have some extra money. CountryWide was really good about that.

CountryWide was the first I contacted and I paid off my debt with their help. I did exactly what they told me to do and paid the monthly payment. It was easier to pay one payment than pay all those different payments. But I don't think they really explain to you about how bad your credit is going to be for a while, while performing the program, and even after that. My credit wasn’t bad originally. I thought CountryWide's program was gonna sustain my credit and not kill it. They should have told me that this could kill my credit for almost long-term, and even after paying off the debt, it doesn't look good because I didn't pay it in full. They need to explain that a little bit more, and I should’ve been more responsible on looking at the after-effects to my credit.

CountryWide was recommended by someone that had used the company for their own personal debts. I thought I would give it a try. I was very happy with CountryWide's debt settlement process. It was pretty straightforward, simple, and easy to understand. With them taking the payments out automatically, I thought it was a pretty good experience. Also, they really talked to us and gave us some good pointers so we were able to work out a payment plan that we could still survive on.

I'm a single mom. I had to get loans then I was behind on my rent, so I was living paycheck to paycheck to pay the loans and the interest. I couldn't afford it and at the time, different people were saying to go bankruptcy but I heard that that's not good. A lot of people were also saying just to leave it alone but I said no. If I did that then it would all come back to me. So, I googled for help with the loan and CountryWide popped up online. I clicked on it, called them, and got some information. One of the people there was letting me know how it was gonna work, what I was gonna do, and what I could afford to. In the end, I reached out to consolidate my loans into one so that way, I could make monthly payments instead of paying all my debts out and going crazy.

When I was having financial hardship, my friend referred me to CountryWide Debt Relief who had a good experience with them. I enrolled with them as well so I submitted all the requirements, I waited for a little bit, then they approved me. When I had a question, I called them and then they called me and let me know what was happening. They sent me a statement for what was settled and what was going on. Their service is good. I didn't even know that I was done until they let me know. A couple of days after, they gave me back the refund that I overpay. They gave me cards and I already referred my three friends to them. They like it. I'm also referring them to some other friends who are having hardship in paying their bills.

CountryWide Debt Relief contacted me over the phone. At that time, I needed help paying my debt and they took care of some of it. They helped me resolve my issues and it was great working with them. I was able to get people on the phone when I called as well. However, I think that they could be a lot quicker in whatever they do when they received information from someone to be able to work the bills out. I wasn’t too impressed with how long it took for them to actually work out and pay a certain bill or contract. They would take forever just to do the simplest thing. For some of my bills, I was able to call people up myself and begin working that day. For them, it would be about a week. I wound up having to put some money and paying off my stuff myself.

I didn't have to have a start-up fee right away when I went with CountryWide and that was I liked most about them. It gave me some time for my payment to be due like the following month once I've joined. They've been of great help to me. If I had one of the companies on the program kept calling me, even though they were told to stop, I would contact CountryWide and they would assist me on what to do. They pretty much took care of it and I stopped hearing from the creditor. Their customer support is awesome. They don't kick you to the curb when they're done with you. The payment plan was affordable for me, and it worked out well. My credit score has been going up, which I'm super excited about. It's just been a weight lifted off my shoulders.

I had a lot of debt. I called CountryWide Debt Relief since they said that they would loan up to so much, just like on their signature debt. But then, after they looked at how much I owed, they told me that it was impossible. We talked for a little while and then I told them what I'd put out a month. They said that they could do better than that. Also, the guy I talked to put forth some good ideas, and so I decided to go and use their services. The signing up process was very nice and the payment plan they set me up with was indeed better than what I was putting out. I was really suffocating there for a while, and then it was about $75 less than I was putting out and it really helped me a lot. If I ever find a person who is having the same problem that I had, I would recommend CountryWide Debt Relief to him.

CountryWide Debt Relief cleared up my two credit cards. The process was pretty simple and easy. They knocked some of the money off the credit cards and I had to pay it off within two years. The payments were weekly and automatic pay. Everything worked out well and I finished last November. I'd tell friends to give CountryWide Debt Relief a shot.

I wanted to take care of my credit card. CountryWide's salesperson called me and said I was okay and then I signed up. He was quite nice and pleasant. He seems to know what he's doing. He followed up. But I don't know how the money was used.

CountryWide is a good company and I have to recommend them. They can help you with your problems and offer debt relief. I had a problem on my Visa and they fixed it. I signed with them and got debt relief, and they worked with my debt, taking about 40% out of my debt.

I went through a divorce and CountryWide made life a lot easier because I didn't have to worry about the debt. The program was all about the issues that I had experienced. So the service was good. What also worked for me was the easier payments as far as automatic payments. I had told them what I had as far as the budget and they worked with that budget. The payments were kinda high but I had to do what I needed to do. So I took that out of the equation and it was pretty much satisfactory. They even reimbursed me whatever the older payments were. That was a good thing. Whatever negotiation they did, they reimbursed me and I kept the money. That was cool. That turned me on.

We had a rather large debt combining all of our creditors and leaving us of security, so we decided we needed to do something. We did some research and found CountryWide Debt Relief. After looking at other companies, we decided to go to someone that’s local. They have an office in Santa Ana, California so, we chose them. It was a good thing we chose them. I had to fill out certain forms with the information during the enrollment, so it wasn’t as difficult of a process. The difficulty was getting it started because we were under the gun with our creditors. It wasn’t that difficult, however, a little tedious but nothing major.

I had a credit card that I had defaulted on. I wanted to find a way to pay it off so I got in touch with CountryWide Debt Relief. Everyone was helpful, got back with me and answered my questions. So far, I paid off the debt and finished it early. It took me a year to finish the program. The one thing that wasn't super transparent was the cost. I knew that there were certain costs but I didn't get a statement so it was a bit hard to know where the costs go. I couldn't even tell exactly how much I paid to CountryWide. There should be a quarterly statement that clarifies where a certain money is going. That would be helpful. Overall, I had a great experience with CountryWide Debt Relief.

I was doing good and then after a while, my job went really low. I was falling behind on my debt and I got sued by one of my credit cards. I saw CountryWide Debt Relief's number on one of the poles and I called in. When I talked to them, they told me they could work with me. When I was signing up with them, I called them two or three times because I couldn't understand the process at first. But after a while, the rep told me, "Oh, no, you just gotta put a certain amount and from then, you do a monthly thing."

I got hurt at work so I couldn't work and I fell behind in everything. When I saw CountryWide, I called them. The young lady I spoke to when I called the 800 number was very good. And then they asked me all the information, got all the information from me, and we took it from there. They were very excellent. I tried to get some of my friends to do it with CountryWide but they didn't do it. Other than that, CountryWide did me a beautiful instant justice. You can't beat them. The cost was great for the debt I was in as well.

My bills were starting to be overloaded. I couldn't afford all the payment, and so I wanted to get one big payment and consolidate everything. It was easier for me. I was working with a debt company but then, I got a letter from a lawyer saying I was being sued and they didn't have attorney services. CountryWide happened to send me a letter and said something about attorneys or something to that effect. So, I called them and they offered attorney services and so, I decided to go with CountryWide to help me out. The program they signed me up for was they put all my credit debt into one big lump sum and they had me pay 653 a month. We came up with the payment amount because it was the same amount that I was paying from the other company. The rep asked me if that was okay and if I was able to handle that payment and I said yes. So, we stuck to that payment.

I had a couple of bills out there that I was able to put together and I ended up with personal illness so I wasn’t able to do everything. I went ahead and did a search on CountryWide and it seems like they were able to help me. They had a lot of good comments. Getting enrolled in their program was pretty easy. I went ahead, did a call, and got everything together. On their end, they had everything that was out there under my name, so they were able to put it together. I had one person that was always on top of everything and tried to make sure that I didn’t have anything else or what was next to do. And if there were any issues or anything, to let them know about it. The cost was a little bit high within my budget but in the end, I was able at least to come out with whatever I was paying. I am done with the program and working with CountryWide was pretty good.

Working with CountryWide, I was able to settle my debts within two and a half years, instead of the original three and half years timeline. They helped me quickly when I came to them, and everything went as planned. They were efficient with what they did and they were willing to work with me, especially to make sure that everything can get handled in a timely manner. And I was comfortable working with them. They were friendly and whenever I had questions and I left a voicemail for them to call me back, they got back to me quickly, within a day or two. Then if they didn’t have the answer for me upfront, they got someone who can answer the questions for me. If I had a question about either a payment or adding or discontinuing one of the debt collectors, they were able to look it up and see if they were still in business or they were willing just to settle upfront.

Working with CountryWide was good, fairly simple and very helpful. I had a car that went to collection and after getting CountryWide's name from an advertisement, I immediately went there. They were the one that I read and I felt comfortable with. Also, it was nearby. They helped me with everything because I didn't know where to go, and they were able to answer all my questions. They were also trying to help me with other debt that we had at the time, but I just wanted to focus on one. I didn't feel pressured into having to do more or less, but they always advise me if I needed more help that they would be there. They gave me a breakdown of everything else, too. I got an email that said they're gonna be sending me a refund. I had already completed the program and the creditor was satisfied. So, there was a refund coming which was a pleasant surprise.

CountryWide Debt Relief gave me a breakdown of all my bills and what the payment would be. That helped out a lot and I was able to pay off everything I owe. Everything was done over the phone and was satisfactory. It worked out fine and was a good experience.

I know someone who had used CountryWide so I decided to go with them as well, and they did well. Their reps answered all my questions and were flexible. I just stuck to what they told me. It was a really helpful program and I’m happy I was able to complete it and get the help from them.

We were a little nervous about going into CountryWide because we had heard some horror stories about these kind of companies. But they took care of us, they helped us get out of debt, and they were great. In the beginning, we had a lot of interaction with them. Later on, we didn’t hear much from them, but everything went as planned and as they had said it would. We talked to them about what we thought we could afford as far as the monthly payments, and they worked around that and helped us figure out a plan. It worked out perfectly. We had a few things we needed to discuss with them a couple of times, and they were always responsive and easy to get a hold of. I would recommend them.

I had a couple of bills that needed to be paid off. I called CountryWide to see how it would work. I worked with Antonio and I had a phone number where I could get in touch with him. Anytime I called or had a question, he was available. We went back-and-forth with one of the bills, but it was because of the company. I'm now done with the program and I was really satisfied with the service as well as its cost. CountryWide has taken off a lot of stress from me and now that everything is paid off, I'm good. I have given their number out to other people and I told them that it worked for me. I had a very good experience with CountryWide.

I had listened to a radio station and came across CountryWide Debt Relief. I decided to call and find out exactly what they do, so I got more information from them. I had my own counselor and I didn’t have to deal with everybody else, which made it very easy. My counselor and I talked about the timeline, but I understood that the process sometimes takes a little longer depending on which creditor we were dealing with. I got a rough estimate and I knew that it would take some time because it’s a process. I liked the first counselor. He was very helpful and whenever I called in and had questions about things, he got the questions answered. If there was any progress, he would call me or send me an email letting me know what was going on.

When my husband passed away, all the interest on the credit cards was more than I could handle. I liked the way CountryWide treated me. There were a couple of different people that I talked to but I didn’t have to work with one certain person. They all took care of me and they were able to assist. They were very above-board, let me know what everything was and sent me mail to let me know what was paid off. So, it was really good. They asked me what I was comfortable with regarding payment and I paid a monthly sum. Cost-wise, I was very much satisfied. I'm all finished and I found the experience very good. CountryWide got me out of debt and got me back on the road where I can enjoy credit again. Without my husband, I didn’t have the income, so I was a little more aware of what I could spend.

I want to fix my bad credit and pay off my debt. I'm making one payment with CountryWide and I let them deal with all of the lawyers and the phone calls. I'll be able to rebuild my credit, too. Everything is sort out but I’m not too satisfied with the quality of their service. They were flexible when it comes to payments, but they need to be more visible to their customers. They never reached out. It was me reaching out to them instead of them reaching out to me. But they were okay on the callback. CountryWide will help you pay off your debt. You should go with it.

I lost money in the stock market in ’02 and then again in ’08 because it was invested through our company that we retired from back in the Midwest. CountryWide was great. They helped me with my credit card and it was all done over the phone. They got with my credit card companies and they tried to reach an agreement with them for either 40%, 50% or 60% of what I owed and they were able to get all the companies to settle. There was one that didn’t wanna settle and it took a little longer.

I had a lot of debt and I lost my job. So, I couldn’t pay everybody. The person from CountryWide who helped me explained it to me carefully and he understood my needs. They asked me how much money I make and they put together all my accounts and they came up with $1,000 a month. They choose to settle whatever will be the most for the year. So, it may be less, depends on the settlements. They said normally 50% less, sometimes it’s full, sometimes it’s a fixed fee. Every time they set all the payments, they sent me a letter. They keep me updated with the information about the automatic account and every time I needed to talk to someone or have questions, they would answer the phone, then they would get back to me.

We had bills quickly piling up after having an accident, so we needed debt relief services. Compared to other companies, CountryWide was more reasonable, talks to you and makes you feel comfortable, so I didn’t take too long to make a decision to go ahead with them. My life has been a lot better since I did, I don’t have to be struggling to pay all my bills.
