Happy client

I got assisted by Chantel and Lornah, they were both of great help to start off the process, Lornah was available when I needed to speak to her. They are of great help. Looking forward to a debit free future. I can be a handful but they were so patient with all my queries and didn't hesitate to assist me.

Excellent customer service!

After my wife lost her job during covid we have been struggling to get back on our feet. We asked the banks many times for payment relief/arrangements to help manage the debt better, but were denied at every request. Zané and the team from Debt Rescue have been extremely accommodating and helpful to finding a solution to our growing debt. If it weren't for Debt Rescue I would probably have lost my car (which I need to earn my income) and house. I now have peace of mind that Debt Rescue have my back while I can reset and get my life in order. Thank you!

I am happy with their performance thus far

I am happy with their performance thus far. They keep me posted through *** and WhatsApp. If there's anything I do not understand I just send a WhatsApp message and they call back promptly. Thanks to Lorhna she's been very helpful and professional. I would gladly refer any of my family or friends to them should they need assistance. When I do not understand any thing I just send Lorhna a WhatsApp message and she call ASAP and to me that's very professional.

I was in distress and did not know how i will manage to continue paying my debtors and still making sure my kids needs are met. I met the wonderful Zane and just one conversation she has restored my sleep, very professional, has empathy and keeps her word. All that she told me has happened as explained. Thank you Zane I hope you will continue to be so kind and show empathy to all that might reach you seeking help.
