  • I was told about this site by my son, he has just completed challenging 3 credit card companies using cancelcredit.net. I won't mention the credit card companies but they had aggressively increased my sons credit card limits on numerous occasions a few years ago, this was at a time in his life when he was vulnerable, and at the time I believed these companies took advantage of him. Cancelcredit not only were able to clear his debts but he received refunds on his penalty charges as well. A big thank you to them. My brother in law works for a major bank he has told me that with all the volume of mis sold payment protection insurance, and unenforceable contracts claims being submitted the banks marketing department now employs a persons one day a week solely submit negative posts on forums and discourage people from making their rightful claims. Banks and dirty tricks, surely not.

    I've just been told about cancelcredit.net by my sister-in-law who lives in Spain and has been working for them for a month. They are given a script to aggressively offer their services to the people who answer the phone to the random numbers they call. She did this on numerous occassions with people who were vulnerable to suggestions that they could have debt disappear at a stroke. She receives a nice bonus for everyone that accepts a second call and even more when they hand-over a deposit against the questionable service they offer. A big thank-you to canceldredit from her. My Uncle works for a major credit reclaim company he has told me that with all the volume of Trading Standards enquiries into their activities they now employ an Essex ex-pat on the Costa solely to submit posts on forums and encourage people to make their dodgy claims. Spanish-based ex-pats and dirty tricks, surely not.
    loose does not rhyme with choose but lose does and is the word you meant to write.

    Whenever a company is exposed as being a scam, it always amazes me the number of kind people who register purely to explain that it's not a scam and they've been very satisfied with the service they've received.

    Good job! :T

    Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawn

    Errrrrrrrrr............ No I haven't and neither has anybody else.
  • I received a all Wed eve from a pushy friendly woman who got under my defences and persuaded me to give some details of my credit cards. She said she was from Evolution Business Associates and working on a government survey of Credit Card agencies. She queried the validity of my credit card arrangements and said she would refer me to the legal department to check whether I had grounds for complaint. The next night her "legall"colleague phoned to say all my cc balances could be wiped out and past interest refunded. I asked for written comment and she said they are a "green"company so don't send letters. I said she could e-mail me. Guess what - they are "cancelcredit". So thanks for this blog. At least I know it was not an identity scam, and also that I will not be taking up their offer.

    Register your card as stolen and get a new one with a different PAN number - they are scammers and you have given them your card details to them which could give them access to debit funds from your account.
    Best Regards

  • Thanks zppp. I did not give them any details (card number, PIN, security number, password) that they could use to access my accounts. I only told them credit companies and credit limits. I have informed all my card holders and will, if necessary, replace the cards. Have spoken to Experian who think it is very low risk but advised me to keep an eye n the accounts.
