Utterly disgusted with customer service and mismatching finances between creditors and Debt Rescue

I got into a car accident about a month ago and my car insurance paid out and finalized my outstanding car finance.

With the left over funds I wanted to settle all of my outstanding amounts on debt rescue with my creditors and I have had the worst experience dealing with "customer service" from Debt rescue.

I have asked for settlement letters from my creditors and the letters I have received was an amount WAY HIGHER than what was showing on my Debt rescue portal.

I have contacted Debt rescue for the last two weeks to get this matter resolved so that I can settle my accounts and not pay my debit order anymore , get my clearance certificate and get a new car as I need to drive to work.

I have been the one that has reached out and got empty promises of getting called back by managers to assist when holding on the line waiting to speak to manager that were "too busy in meetings"

More concerning would be that my creditors show way larger amount outstanding than my debt rescue portal does, where is my money going to? WHy are my creditors not kept up to date with how much is outstanding on my account?

The customer "care" or lack of service has been lacking. No support from this company to expedite this procedure.

I would not recommend debt rescue to anybody I cared about because this has been the worst experience I've had with customer service in my life. Please don't make the mistake I did with using this company. Especially in regards to your finances. Use another company rather.

Utterly disappointed.

More admin for me and less action from Debt Rescue. That. Is. All.

Good day, 
 
Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention and affording us the opportunity to assist.
     
We confirm that we are currently investigating the matter and revert back to you to resolve with urgency.
     
 
It's important to note that balances on the PDA portal is not the correct balances as the system is not linked with creditors that we can provide with real time balances – these balances must be treated as estimations. 
 
Usually when it comes to settlements request it's advisable for a  client to contact the creditors self to obtain the settlements,.Clients can request for discount and even negotiate a settlement with the creditors –  Debt review companies are not allowed to do that and can only provide you with the balances as given by the creditors.
