So far they have been fantastic! Their separate legal dept was totally uncooperative. Everyone at Freedom I have talked to has been wonderful. They have negotiated settlements for me on my accounts. I wish I would have done this sooner.
Hello Kimberly,
We admire your lovely feedback about our company. We're happy you joined our program when you as it's never too late to make a change. We look forward to watching you become debt free! Please reach out to our client services department if you have any questions or comments regarding your account. Thank you for choosing Freedom Debt Relief!
Was a pleasant experience on the phone. Was treated with respect and dignity. The person who answered the phone was able to look at my account and help me with my questions. First time caller, was pleased with the experience.
I am very hopeful this will work! Time will tell but I am ready to get out of this debt and your company explained things clearly and the follow up information was very helpful... I'm only one month into it so I am worried about the increased harassing calls etc before we can settle but I'm hoping it won't get too bad and can settle fast.
Dear Janet,
We would like to welcome you to Freedom Debt Relief! You're in good hands and we're delighted to be able to assist you with your debt and have you become financially free! We don't want you to worry about receiving creditor calls. We have a solution that has helped eliminate them. Our client service department would be more than happy to walk you through what you can do. Please reach out to our client services department for further assistance. Thank you for choosing Freedom Debt Relief!
Resolution In ProgressI'm generally happy but worry about my credit score in the near future. I will soon be selling my house and be debt free. I want to soon after purchase a different car and apply for another home loan. Not sure what my score will look like.
Thank you for your feedback, Lawrence. This is a fair concern to have. Depending upon the condition of your credit report at the time you enroll, a debt settlement plan like ours could have a negative effect on your credit report and credit score. The good news is rebuilding credit is far easier to do than get out of a sizable debt problem. Almost everyone can have excellent credit in two years or less following a simple plan. Please let us know if you have any other questions and/or concerns. Thank you for choosing Freedom Debt Relief!
Since working with Freedom Debt Relief I feel there is a way out of our financial situation. The dashboard is a great tool, but when I call to ask question, there has not been one person who has not gone out of their way to help me, teach me and not make me feel belittled. I have also had to work with NLLG, Lisa **, and that entire experience that could have been bad was handled quickly, communication was excellent and the resolution was far better than expected. In all FDR and NLLG have been far above my expectations and I can't wait till the next structured settlement. I would recommend FDR but would also say, you have to follow the program, keep up your deposits and check the dashboard regularly. FDR gives you all the tools to know your progress, deal with unexpected situations and how to go forward.
This is a phenomenal response, Mary! We are very proud to have you apart of our debt resolution program and we will continue to deliver excellent customer service and professionalism through your graduation. We would be glad to see you recommending our program to your friends and family.

It has been very good working with FDR on getting out of debt so fast and easy. When I had questions I went online or made a phone call and got quick answers. I have been in the program over one year and it works BETTER than I thought it would.

Nancy **, Dealt with me and helped me through everything. I gave her quite a hard time because, I didn't know how to handle this situation and she was patient with me through roughly 2 months while I was trying to make a decision.

I felt like I was "going under" fast. Freedom has changed that and I now know, it might take some time, but it will be ok. The lady that spent time with me at first was absolutely awesome. I was scared and she worked with me for hours. I highly recommend Freedom to ANYONE for any amount. Now, I know what I cannot do and will never get in that position again, thanks to them and their consulting with me.

Resolution In ProgressI feel that my creditors should have been notified of my decision to sign up. I had not ever been late with payments, and I am receiving calls, but they are robot calls. I do not know what I should do.
Hello Kathy,
Thank you for sharing your honest feedback. Typically, we reach out to your creditors four to six months after you enroll to negotiate and resolve the account. It is necessary to build up funding in your dedicated account so we can have leverage over your creditor. In regards to the communication from your creditors, one of our client advocates would be glad to explain how to reduce and minimize the number of calls. Please reach out to our Client Services department or you can log into your Client Dashboard if you have any questions or comments regarding your account. Thank you for choosing Freedom Debt Relief!
Resolution In ProgressJstarted last month, need to advise how much is need in account before the negotiations will start, other than that everyone very nice and helpful. They rush to get you signed up but then everything goes to a standstill till you build up fund.
Hello Gerri,
Thank you for sharing your review. Typically, our negotiation starts four to six months after you enroll in the program or about twenty percent of an original account balance has been built up in your dedicated account. Depending on your accounts enrolled, we can do our best to speed up the negotiation time with supplemented funds. One of our client advocates would be happy to explain this further, simply give one of them a call. Thank you for choosing Freedom Debt Relief!
Your program has really lifted a weight off of my shoulders. It has also helped me to be more proactive in being debt free in the future. I shredded my cards and I am not going back to the life that brought me to you! Thank you!!

Due to my personal bank account being hacked, I requested that FDR allow me a one time monthly deposit restructuring. The person on the phone in customer service I believe her name to be Terry was very cheerful and her willingness to accommodate my request and her sympathy for what I was experiencing and her cheerful personality went a long way to making things better. There should be more people in the world like Terry.
We're happy to help you at a time when you need it most, Richard. We're thrilled to know that Terry was able to take care of your requested deposit modification and we will be sure to pass on the kudos!

Resolution In ProgressThis company lied to me and now my credit issues are worse than before. Never use them. They will lie to you to get your business. I was told they will pay my creditors with negotiation. I paid them a monthly amount to which I thought was to be used to pay my creditors. It wasn’t until 2 months later that I found out they never paid anyone. So now I’m really in a hole with everyone. My credit score dropped almost 200 points. I would have never gone with this horrible company had they told me the truth. I plan on filing suit against them for customer fraud.
We appreciate your honest review, Bonnie. A debt settlement company like ours can have a negative impact on your credit score and it's openly discussed to our clients throughout the enrollment process. We sincerely apologize if there was any miscommunication and we hope that we can work together to resolve your concerns. We will have a member of our team reach out to you to discuss this further. Thank you.
My consultant Anthony ** made the process of enrolling go so easily. I could tell he was very experienced and was able to answer every question I had in regards to the program. I wish there were more Anthony's out there that can take difficult process and make it go so effortlessly. Thanks to Anthony I now have peace of mind and know upfront all of the details of the program. Thanks Anthony! High Five!
