My wife and I enrolled in a company called debt management credit counseling corp. DMCC about two years ago. Everything SEEMED to great at first they got most of our interest rates lowered as they said they would and our monthly payment was lower than what our bills added together would have been. Once in a while we would get a notice from a creditor and we would call DMCC and they said they would handle it that it most likely crossed paths in the mail as I said we have done this for 2 years when we finally got a call from one creditor which we had 2 accts. We came to find out they had been making sporatic payments to and the backed late fees were almost as much as the original balance. We called DMCC and they did negotiate with the creditor to have the late fees removed. That was a relief but how about our credit report when we called to ask what they would do to try to repair that seeing that all the bad marks were because of their sporatic payments they simply said that that wasn't there problem. When we enrolled in this program we only had one minor bad mark and part of the deal was that they would work to repair our credit we mainly enrolled to lower our monthly payments now we have lots of bad marks and are saving a few dollars a month. THANKS FOR YOUR WONDERFUL SERVICE DMCC. The only reason we have not unenrolled is the one acct. has lowered to 12% from 28% and upon unenrollment it will go back to 28%.
Threats we have received:
January 3, 2002
From a law firm named Ullman and Ullman, in Boca Raton, FL strongly recommending we remove the reference to DMCC on our website as our information is "baseless, wrongful and defamatory, as the information published failed to address any specific wrongdoing with respect to DMCC".
Apparently, Ullman and Ullman didn't see one of the emails we had previously posted on the website, and which we have repeated above. In addition, we found the above squeakywheel reference after about 1 second of searching on the various internet search engines, so we thought we'd add this listing to the complaints we have received about this company. We hope this satisfies the aforementioned law firm.
