Excited and nervous...

By Victor G., Newport News, VA, Verified Reviewer

So far the experience with Freedom has been very informative, hopeful, and, at the same time, nerve-wracking.

However, Freedom has done its job in providing information and guidance on their process of assisting me in addressing my debt and alleviating my anxiety of this process while I'm going through the process.

In sum, I know this is a process and Freedom has done their best in helping me through it in order to reach my goal of being as debt-free as possible.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Professionally understanding

By Marsha J., Denver, CO, Verified Reviewer

I had concerns and the folks I spoke with researched, reviewed the info I gave them and explained what was going on. They were patient and informative...

This was all completed while I was on the phone with them so I didn't have to sit and wait for a call back...that was helpful.

Took a lot of stress from me!

By Janet J., Pennsylvania, Verified Reviewer

"Freedom" in the name is what I feel. The stress they have taken from me...the worry...the feeling of doom...the not knowing if I will ever get out from under...didn't want to ever have to resort to having some of my debt forgiven, but it happened. The employees I have dealt with have such compassion, never do they make you feel like a loser, they give you encouragement that you will achieve an end to the nightmare. Yes, your credit standing is not going to be good for a while, but it will get better...faster than it would if you were not to have called them. And, yes, I have recommended them to a friend. That's how comfortable I am with there services.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

New Client Review

By Dawn B., Bronx, NY, Verified Reviewer

I’ve only been in Freedom Debt Relief for 1 month. A $5,000.00 deposit was made to my FDR Account by my significant other Craig Woodley. I’m waiting for at least the 1st settlement before another lump sum deposit is made. At age 56 the electronic way that things are done with FDR can be a bit maddening.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Making the first step.

By John T B., Oceanside, CA, Verified Reviewer

After making the first call, I was greeted with personnel who first listen to my situation, regulate my situation, explain to me how they can help me and explain to me, if or when my request is approved, everybody will work as a team, including. It was that moment, I felt the weight of frustration leaving my body.

Thank you!

I was a skeptic

By Yolanda G., New York, Verified Reviewer

I was very skeptical until my case representative explained in full detail how the program works. By the end of the business day, after calling Kevin back on his direct line, which he himself answered every time, I was on my way to becoming debt-free, with a payment amount I chose that worked for my budget.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

One year in

By Joanne S., California, Verified Reviewer

FDR has kind and knowledgeable people who help you; some spend more time with you than others.

When it comes to credit cards and debt, or wherever the debt comes from...it is all business.

Some card companies won't compromise. No matter how you got there or who you are or how long you have been with a company.

If this is one of the worst things that happens to me then I can live with it. It isn't easy and it is very stressful on one's life. I will be glad and grateful when my debt is paid.

FDR does what they can with the tools they have.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Thank you

By Joyce W., Phoenix, AZ, Verified Reviewer

I woke up one day and realized that I need to work on my debts but that means that it will take me forever to pay it all off.

I am just starting but I am really excited on my debt-free journey!

By Daryl B., Euless, TX, Verified Reviewer

Nervous

By Taylor L., Salt Lake City, UT, Verified Reviewer

I just started the program in May. I was excited and now my excitement has turned to worry. I have read reviews where people were cheated by FDR. I have also read that people get sued and that TERRIFIES me. I don't have extra money to pay for courts and lawyers. I have called FDR about my concerns and they have told me that I can opt-out if I want to for a full refund. I don't know what to do at this point. I'm scared, worried and I feel alone. I am a single mom and I'm just trying to make ends meet.

I read that your credit takes a hit and the rep for FDR told me that after the settlements that your score will go up. But now I read that it can take 7 years for your credit to return to normal.

The people at FDR have been kind and have helped me so far. But I just don't know how the long term is going to be and that is what makes me even more nervous.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Company Response from Freedom Debt Relief

Jul 17, 2019

Thank you for sharing your feedback, Taylor. We are sorry to hear that you are nervous. Not all of our clients experience this, although it is true that some creditors are more aggressive than others. We've been negotiating with hundreds of creditors for over 15 years, so we have a sense of how aggressive, they may or may not be based on this experience. Our team does not want any of our clients to feel unsure, a member of our team will be reaching out shortly to discuss your concerns. Thank you.

Your "new" CFT support is NON-EXISTENT!

By Manuel F., Rensselaer Falls, NY, Verified Reviewer

Had an issue with my browser as a result of CFT's change-over to a new website. Could not print my monthly statement from either FDR site or CFT site (assume FDR is linking/using the CFT site to process statements on FDR site). Called both FDR support AND CFT support. Ended up with CFT support with a foreign accent (Indian?). Was told that I had to go to MY (non-existent) computer support "person" as "he" did not see my issue! Why is/was YOUR change now MY problem? I ended up identifying/fixing it myself (because I am a computer tech), but what about your clients who do not have this knowledge? Very poor answer from your support team! This needs to be addressed ASAP or you will see severe fall-out from this! You need to fire the support group CFT is using for their web site or fire CFT!

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Jul 16, 2019

Thank you for sharing your feedback, Manuel. We are happy to hear that you are no longer having issues and that you were able to fix your computer.

A member of our team would like to reach out to you to discuss your concerns further in a private message. Thank you.

Good news about working with Freedom

By Danley M., Chesterfield, VA, Verified Reviewer

I called Freedom after a divorce, not sure which way I was going. The lady was so nice, never pushed me, explained everything to me. I cried and told her if this really works I promise you it will never happen again in my lifetime. She laughed and said we are here to help people like me who let things get a little out of hand. My experience with Freedom has been wonderful. Counting down to graduation day.

This is real help!

By Jill R., Minneapolis, MN, Verified Reviewer

Peace of mind

Customer service

By Stacey T., Houston, TX, Verified Reviewer

Delicia was the first customer service representative that really looked deep into my account and explained to me exactly what happened and how it would be fixed. I had been very discouraged when my exit date came and went only to find out in December one of the payments were never cashed by FNB. I was never notified of this and it sent me into 4 more months. My biggest concern is even though you can call at any time, once they have sent a message to leadership, I was never contacted or up dated about the issue which left me stressed and confused. I was only ever told to call back in two weeks. I hope to be completed soon. Other then this last problem, I have had a wonderful experience and am very grateful to your company for helping me out of debt and learn new skills to stay out of debt. I would 100% recommend this company and have.
