Accredited Debt Relief offers a simple and transparent way to get out of debt.
Accredited Debt Relief creates a path to success for people who are overwhelmed by unsecured debts like credit cards and personal loans. Accredited Debt Relief will personalize your debt relief program and work on your behalf with each of your creditors to reduce the total debt owed.
Accredited Debt Relief helps clients save money and break the cycle of minimum payments for a faster way out of debt.
On average, clients will pay 55% of the total balance outstanding. Accredited Debt Relief’s fees are performance-based, which means they are not earned until a successful settlement is reached with the creditor and the client starts paying toward that settlement. Fees are 15-25% of the total original debt enrolled and vary by state.
Clients are advised that the program will have a negative impact on their credit score. This impact is temporary, and credit scores usually start recovering as accounts are settled and paid.
Accredited Debt Relief Terms & Requirements
In order to qualify for a debt relief program with Accredited Debt Relief clients:
- Must have $10,000 or more in debt
- Debt must be unsecured. Accredited Debt Relief will not negotiate mortgages, federal loans, and other debts that are secured
- Must be able to prove a steady level of income
- Must live in an approved state
How to Apply
Before working with Accredited Debt Relief, all clients must complete an enrollment process that begins with a free consultation call. You can initiate the consultation in two ways:
- Call the company directly at 800-497-1965
- Fill out a form on their website
Consultation Form
I chose to go through the website and click “How Much Can I Save” to complete a consultation form and set up a call to receive a savings estimate and detailed information about my financial relief options. At the moment, a consultation call is required, and a fully digital experience is not available.
After selecting my debt amount, I was taken to a screen stating that I could obtain a free quote in 30 seconds after adding some basic personal information.
Once I completed this form, I was informed that a debt relief expert would be in touch with me to discuss my case in more detail over the phone.
Consultation Call
I received a call within an hour, which began with some questions about personal details (clients who call directly and do not fill out the online form may be asked for more information at the start of the call.)
Then, Accredited Debt Relief ran a soft credit pull to evaluate all the options available to me. If you decide to move forward with enrollment, they will send you an email and advise you of the next steps required to finalize your application. Overall, the process was easy, and the debt relief expert was very knowledgeable.
Application Steps & Time Frames
Accredited Debt Relief’s enrollment process is fast and efficient. After completing an online form which took under a minute, I was called back by a debt relief expert within an hour.
Although enrollment happens quickly, the program timeline requires some patience. There is a waiting period after enrollment which is required before negotiations can begin on your enrolled accounts. Rest assured, this waiting period serves a purpose.
It typically takes 3 to 6 months for clients to receive their first settlement. During this time, clients focus on making their monthly deposits into a Dedicated Account, which will fuel all future settlements.
