What should I do? Original Credit Counselling Co. sold my account

[Anonymous]

Hello,

I was enrolled with a credit counselling company and things were looking good until they were bought out by another company.  I am not happy at all with the new company and I need help.  I have requested information from the new company and it took me 6 weeks to get that information.  When I finally received the information on Friday I was not happy with what I was reading.  The new company wants to charge me setup fees and processing fees, why should I have to pay fees if my account was already set up?

My credit cards have not been paid for 2 months now and I am at a loss of what to do.  I'd like to contact another company with a good track record.  I have contacted all of my credit card companies to let them know what happened but of course the bills will keep piling up regardless.  

Can someone please refer me to a good credit counselling service company?  I am not looking to stiff any of my credit card companies but I do not want to get dooped by my credit counselling company either.

Please Help.

Welcome to the forum.  I sent you a PM with the URL of the one I used.

You need to contact an 'accredited' CCCS,

It sounds like you were enrolled with one of those fly-by-night outfits that promise alot, and deliver more trouble than you started with.

I hope it works out for you,

If you decide to swtich or dispute with your current debt management program, please be sure to make atleast the minimum payments to your creditors.

I agree with everyone above.  I've also sent you a PM with my credit counseling company.

Hmmm.  Looks funny to me due due to the lack of support on the site.  I would suggest finding a credit counselor through the National Foundation for Credit Counseling.  www.nfcc.org  

Good luck.
