Consumer Narrative
Beyond Finance Debt Resolution Program Enrolled XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I enrolled in a debt resolution program with Beyond Finance in XX/XX/XXXX for four credit card accounts totaling approximately {$16000.00}, structured as a 36-month payment plan. Beyond Finance instructed me to cease all direct communication with creditors and to rely on them to manage negotiations, monitor account status, and notify me of material developments. One of the enrolled accounts was with XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX. Beyond Finance did not inform me that negotiations with XXXX were unsuccessful or non-responsive, nor that no resolution was achievable under the original program assumptions. I was also not notified that litigation risk was escalating. On XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX filed a debt claim lawsuit against me in XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I discovered the lawsuit independently. When I contacted Beyond Finance on XX/XX/XXXX, the initial representative I spoke with was not aware that a lawsuit had been filed. I received follow-up contact only after I uploaded documents I received in the mail from lawyers referencing the case. During subsequent communications, I was told that XXXX was unwilling to negotiate and had sought full payment, and that Beyond Finance does not notify clients of failed negotiations or litigation risk unless a settlement is reached. I was also informed that Beyond Finances last contact with XXXX occurred shortly before the lawsuit was filed. Beyond Finances original program projections assumed a partial settlement of the XXXX account. When those projections became invalid and no actionable response or resolution was obtained, I was not notified of the change. As a result, the projected resolution amount increased by approximately {$2800.00} beyond the original estimates used to structure my program. After litigation had already been filed, Beyond Finance presented a proposed settlement offer. However, this occurred only after I independently discovered the lawsuit and raised concerns about the lack of disclosure. I relied on Beyond Finances instructions and representations and was deprived of the opportunity to take timely action to protect myself from legal action. I have since submitted a written dispute requesting documentation of communications, explanation of disclosure practices, support for the original projections, confirmation regarding fees, and a corrected itemization of program terms. As of this filing, no such information has been provided.
