Feeling confident with the support I have received so far

I first spoke with Kathleen who was very sweet and helpful, she connected me with Doris who is very supportive and empathetic. She was very transparent and informative when going over options, questions and concerns which I appreciate tremendously. Though this is just the early stages I am feeling confident that Credit Canada has my best interest in mind.

Horrible communication and downright unreliable

Very shady company with poor communication and absolutely zero follow up. I to this day have never received confirmation that my plan was actually completely (or my money actually received by the creditors because I STILL get statements years later) so I can't even vouch for the legitimacy of this organization because I very well might have been scammed this whole time. Would not recommend; I feel no "trust" with them and no one there seems at all competent

Very helpful

Brandon was incredibly helpful and helped me understand the options I was given by my bank, and gave me more options that were not originally provided to me. It was very reassuring and helped me regain hope that I had lost. It was really meaningful to me that he wasn't trying to sell me on something that wouldn't actually benefit me in the long run.
