    New Era suckered me into their program and it feels predatory. I had so many options but they were happy to lock me in and ruin the last several years of my life and credit. I knew my credit would tank but it’s the aftermath of it that was not disclosed. No one said I would have to pay taxes on the settled debt, no one said the companies would list the settlements as charge offs on my credit report, no one said that the companies that bought the debt could choose to not report the settlement on my credit report until the settlement was paid in full.

    New era put my money in a trust account and then paid themselves over 3000$ in one month after settling 1 account but before all 4 of my accounts were settled, then capital one sued me for a 4000$ debt that could’ve been easily negotiated should new era have waited to pay themselves. The attorney that was hired to represent me was condescending and he told me he was friends with the lawyer that represented capital one. They all work together to make themselves money. Once the debt is settled they don’t care if you struggle to pay 700-800$ payments and they keep you locked in instead of trying to figure out what works for you. There are other options, don’t do their program. Worst mistake of my life.

    I researched debt settlement companies, and came across New Era. I am so glad I chose them! Their customer service is outstanding, their fees are very reasonable, collecting only when a debt is settled, and they are beyond knowledgeable. I went with another company that ended up in a federal class action lawsuit and involved lawyers who took fees from me monthly. Not New Era! They settled all my debts, and now I am debt free!!! Hooray! And for anyone searching for the right company to handle their credit debts, New Era is the one. Look no further!

      I needed a way to pay my bills, but I was not working at that time. I had tried a company in Saint Louis but they couldn’t help me because of the amount, so they referred me to New Era Debt Solutions. Everything was already set up with another company and what it did was send New Era all the information. My situation was a little bit more unique than anybody else’s and it took about two days to get set up with New Era. I just started with them and I’m still going through a debt settlement program. I’m hoping everything will work out and I look forward to getting this taken care of. They’ve been trying to work with me and so far, everything has been going fine. I would recommend New Era Debt Solutions.

      I’m in the middle of a debt settlement program with New Era Debt Solutions. Compared to others, they gave me the most information and the best rates. They seemed to be the most knowledgeable, just like the division person I spoke to. The process was easy and I was very comfortable dealing with them. The service was excellent and it was a very positive experience. I would use them again.

      I saw myself in a situation where I couldn’t handle the debt and the offers that the bank was doing to settle weren’t that attractive compared to what New Era Debt Solutions was advertising and offering. I spoke directly to New Era's founder and owner and going with them seemed the right choice. Your accounts are needed to be viewed and outdated from the bank to be considered delinquent. Once you're over the six-month period then the bank will hire another collecting company and that's when New Era comes in. I'm still going through the program and the last time I had an update from New Era, my debt had been sent to a debt collection company. Most of the time, my interactions with their team has been one-on-one phone calls. The quality of the service I’ve received was good and it made me feel confident that we will come to a nice settlement and final solution. Also, the cost was fair. I’m really confident and happy with them.

      People that need relief service and are overwhelmed with their debts are not going to go wrong with New Era Debt. They won't make you feel like you're just a number, they'll genuinely try to help you get through your crisis as opposed to just being passed around from one person to another, and you can trust them. I was on a tremendous amount of stress with my mother dealing with Alzheimer's. I was trying to take care of her and I gave up the income I was receiving. I was still currently up until about six months ago on everything, then I ended up running up a few more debts on the credit cards. I was still making my payments but I decided to avail of debt relief services.

      Before New Era, I was with another debt settlement company. I made one payment and I told them I was sending money back because they were shuffling me around. They said "Hi" and gave me a pitch, then once I said, "Yeah," they shuffled me somewhere else. They also told me to call a person for this and write this for that, so it was a very negative experience. Compared to them, New Era was much better. The way that New Era handled my account felt like at least I had the ability to talk to the guy who signed me up and that they were very honorable, integrity wise.

      Alex, the guy that I worked with, seemed upfront. He’s been doing it way back around late 90's and I figured that he's an honest person who's trying to help some people out. I also felt like he's doing it for people's best interest, plus he didn't advertise or call people on the phone like all these other consumer companies now. He was concerned and a legit guy that you could go to if you had a problem. He was very positive and helpful, too. He didn't high pressure me and gave me very fast service.

      So far, they settled one of my debts and they temporarily took some relief off for me when they did that. In hindsight, getting their service wasn't necessary as I could have settled that debt myself. But I wouldn't use a debt settlement company if I wasn't going through a lot of things and I didn't need more monkey on my back. So I have nothing but positive things to say about New Era Debt. If anybody's having a debt problem and they don't feel like they can handle it, they should go to New Era because Alex can help put their mind at ease and take care of their situation.

      I’m currently going through a two-year program with New Era Debt Solutions. The other company that I worked with was unethical and I had a horrible experience with that company, so I'd rather work with New Era on the Department of Education's behalf. They also got a great rating by the Better Business Bureau. They consolidate all the debts together, let me know the deals and prices that they could take on and I can pay it off early which are all nice. They saw my credit report and said they’re able to work on it on my behalf. I also asked them to work on another student loan that I’m currently fighting back and forth with, but they were not able to take on that yet because it was a debt. But they were helpful along the way and I felt very comfortable working with them. It was a very streamlined process and I got what I wanted out of it. Everything is taken care of and my credit rating is going up, and I don't have to worry about it lingering over me.

      I am currently going through a settlement program with New Era Debt Solutions. I was trying to see how much it was going to save me and I thought they'd be able to help. Before that, I went online and read positive reviews from people who have gone through the program. They seemed to rate well. I also spoke to so many other people and they definitely helped. So far, so good. Every time I have questions about anything, or they need to reach out to me, our communication has been really good and open. I'm also making progress. I saved some money when one account was closed. And while I’m certainly not the only one who thinks the faster the better, the pace is reasonable. It's been a very positive experience with New Era Debt Solutions.

      I needed to fix my credit and I was searching the best companies on the internet and New Era was in the top 5. We only started in February and I am still going through the debt settlement program. They explained the process to me and asked for information in the beginning. I submitted all my debts and letters, indicating how much I owed to every single company then I started saving the money. When they come up with a good amount of money, they pay one account and send me the account information of what they are paying for. They've always communicated with me on what we are paying or what we are saving for. Plus every time I have some questions, I send emails and they reply to me within 24 hours, sometimes sooner.

      The service is a good 95% and the debt settlement program is helping me a lot. The cost of the service is high but it’s paying for itself and it’s worth it. Besides, I don’t have to deal with the companies because New Era is talking to them. I totally recommend New Era and the team to all my friends. In fact, two of my friends are already in the settlement program with New Era too.

      New Era had reviews that I liked and I had a pleasant experience with them. Their reps were informative and always answered questions when I needed them answered. They informed me about everything that was going down and things happened the way I expected it to. When I was first going through it though, it was very uncomfortable because I wanted to do the right thing. I was very confused but they were very helpful and they made me feel comfortable in my decision-making. That was nice ‘cause when I was feeling unsure if I was doing something wrong, they were very understanding and compassionate. New Era gives me the peace of mind in the sense that I feel like I'm paying back my debt and it was workable. I’m still waiting for the final outcome but thus far, they're fine.

      Last year, I was scammed and lost $30,000. Somebody I trusted sent a check to my account. The bank approved the check, but later on, they sent me a letter that that check wasn’t real and I’m supposed to pay those debts. That messed up my credit card and I had to fix it. There was no way I can fix it individually so I checked online and found New Era then decided to call them. They gave me a quote and I was convinced by their service. They sounded like they know what they were doing. When they came out with this amount of money per month for the next four years, I believed that would help me a lot.

      They sent me some documents and listed all my debts with different companies. After that, I moved everything to them. They went over my debt and said they can settle this amount for this figure. What I have to do is to pay this amount for 48 months. They reached out to all my debtors individually and settled with them on my behalf. I’m paying the fixed amount that I’m supposed to pay every month to some payment company and I’ve been checking their website. New Era sent me some debts they have already settled with payment ongoing. I’m down one year and making some progress already. I have three more years to go. I need to call them to see if they can take one account out to lower how much I’ll be paying per month. I talked to my girlfriend and she said she was going to help me with one of those debts since it’s draining my finances.

      I had four credit card payments that I couldn't afford to pay. I investigated online, looked at a lot of reviews and the ones for New Era were better than everybody else's. I am now in my ninth month with them and I still have another year and two months to go. Their debt consolidation process was very easy. I spoke to the owner on the phone and we went through the amount of money that I owed the credit card companies. I asked him if they dealt with the companies that my cards were with and he said that he had dealt with them many times and that it worked out well. I had another call from a young lady and she made sure that everything was good. When I didn't get everything in the mail, she made sure that I did. Then, I got five calls from the credit card companies and I explained to them what was going on. I never heard anything back from them and everything is hunky-dory.

      So far, I'm very happy with the quality of service from New Era. They do all the work and my mind is at ease since I don't have to worry about dealing with it. Everything's getting done now. There was no way I could have afforded to make those credit card payments but now I've got one payment that comes out the same time every month. New Era is in business to make money and the amount that they are going to make is minimal compared to the amount that I was paying, so I'm very happy with the cost of their service. I'm now on my way from Richmond, Virginia up to West Virginia, and this is possible because of New Era. They took a big burden off of me and I'd recommend them to others.

      I looked into debt settlement due to my financial situation and I found New Era Debt Solutions. I'm in the process of completing the program with them and everything is good so far. We started by putting all the credit card accounts on the program and sending all the statements to them. They reviewed it, verified it, and sent me an agreement to sign.

      I looked at a couple of companies online and I liked what was written about New Era Debt Solution. I’m visually impaired and they seemed to understand that I might have to have some correspondence through email. They were willing to work with me. And some months that I couldn’t make the whole payment, they gave me a couple of months and then I could go back to them. They were easy to work with.

      I can also ask them anything and they’ll do what they can do to help and they go the extra mile. When I was getting information on my cards, I was having trouble with the websites because they’re graphical. I have a screen reader but it doesn’t work because they can’t read pictures. So, they suggested different ways that I could still get the information if I didn’t want another person to help me. They were creative and don’t want to give up on me. They’re good about respecting people’s privacy as well. I feel secure that they’re honest people and that they are going to do what they say. It’s a very easy experience to go through.

      Opening up a business can cause a lot of money and time. It's very fruitful and fulfilling in getting to the stages of it but going through that process of opening the business put me in a tough financial spot. I started doing some research on different ways to handle it. After my research into a bunch of different companies and methods, I thought that doing this New Era Debt Solutions program would work the best for my situation because a lot of those other programs are pretty heavy on filing bankruptcy. Personally, I don’t want to deal with any court issues. I would much rather deal with the companies itself and try to resolve it without having legal problems. New Era seemed a lot more interested in managing the issue with my expectation. It seemed like we had the same interest at heart.

      So, I spoke to an account manager and gave her all of my information and they pretty much did all the work. The girl who handled my case was extremely thorough in explaining everything and did a good job of making sure that I understood. They know what they're doing. All I did was tell them my situation and they set everything up. They set it up where my payments automatically come out and use the money that I’m depositing to negotiate my debts.

      New Era has been one of the best in terms taking a weight off my shoulders. It's been one of the best experiences because I’m still in business now and I'm still in the program because I'm actually able to pay that off. Everybody that I've been in contact within the company has been extremely helpful. Before I was in the program, I was constantly thinking about late payments, about which bill I am going to pay this month and which one am I going to let go. That’s an awful feeling. Through the program, they helped me decide what we can take off the table and make it easier for me. Ever since then, I’ve pretty much cleared my plate in terms of any debt I had other than what I'm still in the program with New Era. So, it's been really helpful in taking away a lot of stress. I recommend them to clients who I work with who are dealing with a lot of debts.

      My husband and I both got medically separated so our paycheck dropped about 70%. And the creditors weren't willing to work with us at all because our bills weren’t light. I did a Google search and found New Era Debt Solutions and now we’re going through their debt settlement program. They asked for our bills, income and what bi-monthly payments we could afford. They contacted everybody and handled everything else. Everybody there's great and the program's working great as well. They've settled a couple of our debts already and I automatically get emailed a copy of them per the agreement. Our credit took a huge hit, but at least we're paying some of the debt and not just completely writing them off. And in terms of the cost in relation to the quality of their service, I’m pretty satisfied with them.

      I lost my job and was unemployed for an extended period of time which caused me to do some re-consolidation and debt consolidations that I would not normally have done. I first reached out to New Era Debt Solutions then I enrolled online through their program. We also conversed back and forth so it wasn't simply a done deal online. It was a get-to-know-them process and I was comfortable working with them. Everything was laid out for me verbally then in writing so there were multiple consultations that were good.

      It started off really well and since I had a large amount of debt, I built up the account. Then New Era started settling some of the debts and they've been very good at working with me at the front-end. But now I'm considering withdrawing my remaining accounts because it hasn't been a very open line of communication lately with them. To me that's critical because I don't know where I'm at sometimes.

      I also ended up settling one of my debts by myself with the company because New Era didn't get back to me in a timely manner and I didn't want to pass up the deal. I was trying to get the settlement amount down to 30% where they wanted it at 55%, then New Era's fee on top of that takes it even higher. So I didn't pay any service charge on that and it saved me a little bit of money. But based on what I have done, New Era's fees are a little high. In my own mind, I could apply their $4,000 fee to another debt in the long term. My account also dried up a little bit and they haven't been so forthcoming at the back side of it. Now I've been contacted by another debt settlement collector and I've yet to hear from New Era even though I gave the phone number to them.

      These guys are the real deal! I was super impressed with their professionalism, thoroughness, knowledge, and communication. Alex, Tony and the rest of the team were able to save me thousands of dollars (they settled my debt less than 50 cents on the dollar INCLUDING their fees). They know what they're doing, are patient in explaining the process (It's very involved and you need to trust them. If you do, you'll be rewarded) and answered all my skeptical questions. You'll be SO thankful you went with New Era to handle your debt settling needs!
