I signed up for Consumer Credit Relief's (CCR's) program to help me get out of debt. Apparently I was hiring an attorney to settle the debts, but at NO POINT did I ever have contact with an attorney. My only contact was with a major sleezeball, used car salesman character, Ricardo Castro. I was told that if I had a problem, I instead would have to talk to customer service reps — who did nothing for me. The whole thing seemed pretty shady.
After a short period of time, I decided to cancel their services, as I felt it was a scam. They did nothing to help convince me otherwise that they would actually settle my debts - nor could
I find any information online that they actually got ANYONE out of debt.
Therefore I canceled their services after paying an initial $950 at that point. Silly me to even sign up. Upon asking for a refund of this money, since no services were rendered, I was denied a refund. Actually, I called and wrote letters over and over and over again, and each time no one would respond to me. I even went so far as to hire my own attorney to get my money back, and Consumer Credit Relief (CCR) refused to even talk to MY attorney! If that's not a scam and a rip off, I don't know what is!
So here's what I've learned: RUN AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY! I can only imagine how many people they have been victimized and ripped off before and after me. Ricardo Castro operates the entire scam out of a studio apartment. Doesn't even have any listing with the BBB, thus might as well be a fly-by-night operation. When I pressed him to provide references of other individuals he helped, Ricardo Castro couldn't even give me a single reference. Hopefully this company will get shut down by the authorities. I am out a lot of money, but hopefully you'll learn from my mistake. The moral of the story is not to do business with Consumer Credit Relief.
This company is less than a year old (no matter what they tell you) and it is owned, operated and solely staffed by a conman Ricardo Castro. He has a sorted history at best in the industry.
His scandalous philosophy is very clear... Get the deal at any cost and burn as many customers as you can. Beware of this company and just say NO!!!
