If I could, I would give them 0. Stay away from this company :(I signed up with JG Wentworth in October/November. I have been going through financial hardships, hoping that the debt resolution would help. Nothing was happening for a couple of months. I was told by the guy that set me up that he would check in on me and he would help me through the process. Once he was done setting me up- NEVER did I heard from him again.Then after a couple of montha of just seeing my credit score so low, I called and cancelled my account. I had 400 dollars in their escrow account, and that morning that I cancelled, OUT OF NO WHERE they say that they found a resolution for one of the creditors. How Ironic....but I said nope- Im done with this money, give me my money back.All of this was happening in the beginning of January. I NEVER said yes to the supposed "resolution" because I cancelled before they told me they had something. Im just so disappointed because they have not given me my refund. I feel like they stole my money and I have emailed them at least 4 or 5 times in total so I can get my 400 dollars refunded and nothing!

Very helpful information. They just called me, when they started asking about my house payments, I assured them I was current, and I had proof. The company I financed with said to be ***** of companies who press for that information. I told him that, he hung up on me. Thats the 2nd ****** from that company to do that, just hang up on me! That led me to here! So glad! Thank you, and I am sorry for your troubles

Really wish I could give zero stars. Horrible company to work with. Did a debit consolidation with them. I ended up paying off most of the debts myself because after dealing with them for over 3 years they didn't even have 1 of my debts cleared up. Was down to one last debt with one final payment. They didn't pull the money for the payment which broke the arrangement with the last company. So now I cant make any final payment until they renegotiate which can take 2 to 4 months in the mean time my credit which was getting better is about to go back down because of this dirty company. Also they say over and over that they have tried to contact me via email or phone call and never once have I received an email or phone call. DO NOT DO ANY BUSINESS WITH THIS HORRIBLE COMPANY YOU WILL REGRET IT. THEY NEED TO BE SHUT DOWN.

JG is The Biggest Scam!!! They take your money monthly and wont pay the Collector until they build up a savings for you. While you are receiving Negative Reports on your Credit Report. Then the Collection will take to Small Claims Court and you are paying their Court Fee. Elon and ***** need to Shut JG Down

Run don't walk from this company. They tell u what they want you to hear so you will sign up for the program then it's lie after lie. This was supposed to be a stress free program and I'm more stressed out than what I was before signing up. The worst thing that happened was when I received a summons saying I was being sued from one of my creditors because they never negotiated a settlement. I could go on and on. They also take all their fees out first before even starting to pay your creditors. I am now talking to a lawyer to sue them for breach of contract because everything i was told never happened and trying to get a manger to call you back never happens. What a nightmare this has been.

JG Wentworth seeks to take advantage of individuals who are already in debt. I was charged for services that were not explained and charged for 60 days worth of services when i had the account for less than 30 days. When I asked to close my account and get a refund they did everything they could to drag it out and no one could expedite anything. I was told that the computer took over and no one had any control over it after that. I was told by two different creditors that this is how JG wentworth does business. These two creditors have had issues getting payments and speaking to someone at JG Wentworth. I would never advise anyone to use this company EVER...... I paid in $300 and I am only gertting $260 back even though i did not use them at all and only had the company for 3 weeks. I would like to recieve all my money back but after speaking to two people I was told that they do not have an option on the computer to do that.

They are a SCAM!!! They had me pay the same amount after including their "fees." Their settlements meant nothing!!! They tried telling me to even pay the full amount on one of my accounts! They got me in a vulnerable place with their instagram ads and I thought finally maybe I can get this figured out. Do not use a debt settlement company!!! I am pleading with you! I have paid the exact same amount, ruined my credit for the next seven years! If I knew all I had to do was contact the credit card companies and ask them for solutions to my problem while explaining my situation they would've aided me in fixing the debt along with saving my credit!!! These people sell you a story and thinking you can settle for less than you owe and bring your credit back up as soon as you settle. 100/100 DO NOT RECOMMEND!!!Contact your bank/credit card companies, I am begging you for your sanity. They will help you! Credit card companies offer help on these things, I wish I had known prior to falling dumb for their ads!

Please if it is at all possible, by pass JG Wentworth. I am enrolled in a debt relief program with that company 26 months with only 18 months remaining. I have been to court three times by the same creditor. I contacted JGW each and every time prior to the creditor taking any legal action against me. I was always told they will look into it. Prior to signing any agreement, I was told after 6 months into the program creditors will more than likely not contact me due to agreed settlements. JGW did NOTHING but repeatedly LIE to me about looking into the matter instead of telling me that it was little they could do. Then I would have made an attempt to contact that particular creditor. That creditor ended up garnishing my pay check, 60%. Now I recently found out that another creditor has turned an account that JGW listed in my relief program to settle with. I had to sell property to come up with something quick to move into an affordable place. Now that's going to be a problem because that debit is my credit report as delinquent 18 months non-payment. By the way I reported that to JGW also prior to that creditor sending it to a collection agency. What good is enrolling in a debt relief program if they make matters much worse? JGW did that to me. I call them to get updates. They outright LIE with excuses. Now I have to try to resolve this matter with this creditor before applying for an affordable apartment. I recommend anyone interested in a debt relief program, contact anyone else before any slight considerations with JGW. If you don't you maybe sorry that you did. I SURELY AM!

I was paying them a high amount each month to take care of my creditors. I thought everything was being taken care of. Next thing I know, Im being summoned to court for two unpaid creditors, who were supposed to be included in the plan. With each attempt to contact JG, I was put on hold or transferred with no resolution. I ended up canceling my payment agreement with them!! Very disappointed and discouraged!

They rate your payment on the sum of what you owe then negotiate hundreds off the debt. You pay the full debt but they get the money the companies wrote off. Hundreds if not thousands. Then only do a few the first 6 months then try to get you to get their loan with who knows how much APR. better to negotiate yourself. Dont fall for it.
