I got a call from this people and the same day I gave them my bank information, someone used my Credit Card information to buy Groceries in San Diego. coincidentally where they are based out of. I'm from New York. This can not be a coincidence. When I call them to tell them about it, some lady named Carol answered. She was rude and she sounded obese. I'm sure she's the person who used my card to buy food. I called the San Diego Police and they said this company is not based in San Diego but instead they call Americans from Tijuana, Mexico posing to work out of a San Diego virtual office. Many reports have been filed against them. Be Careful with them.

You have to be a special kind of person to still fall for this company after reading all this reviews... You deserve to be taken advantage of if you still give this people your information after reading all this reviews and complaints. Look them up on the BBB ... It gets worse.

Thank you for this post.

Kim,
This is your Student Loan Advisor Carmen Orea, and I am emailing you so that you may have my full name, company, and contact info.
Plus, I would like to leave you some information pertaining to your options.
The Borrower’s Defense to Repayment Program remains one of the ONLY options for many student loan borrowers. This is by far the best option for students who have attended a closed, for-profit school that deceived them into borrowing money for their program based on lies, deceptions and false marketing practices, among others.
Should I Try for a BDAR Discharge?
The Borrower’s Defense Against Repayment Program (“BDAR”) remains the most powerful and most effective way to eliminate student loan debt without the need to pay for it, but before you get too excited, please take note that BDAR discharges are only available for Federal student loans.
It is also important to keep in mind that qualifying for a Borrower’s Defense Discharge is no easy task, as it requires convincing the Department of Education (DOE) that the school you attended purposefully misled you, incurred in illegal activity, or committed outright fraud against you, and that you only agreed to borrow money to attend the institution because of their wrong behavior.
We are experts in the industry and know how to get the job done.
With this said, the BDAR program is an excellent opportunity for debt discharge, especially for anyone who attended one of the big for-profit schools that have recently been taken to task by the DOE, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau over allegations of fraud, ill-intent and illegal misconduct.

We look forward to helping you
Best Regards,
Carmen Orea

We’ve got great news for UOP students; it’s now not just possible, but relatively likely and essentially even pretty easy to qualify for University of Phoenix loan forgiveness benefits via the Borrower’s Defense Against Repayment Program.
Why? Because the University of Phoenix has been accused of committing all sorts of fraudulent marketing and business activities, including violating both State and Federal laws, by essentially running a huge scam operation to extract money from not just individual Americans, but also the Federal Government and even the Defense Department (via student loans given to military personnel).
Check out this link below to see one of the many examples of students who are receiving monetary relief.

United Aid Group will call people claiming to be experts in the student loan industry. They will illegally access your FSA by resetting your password and thus, allowing them to view all of your personal information to strengthen their pitch to each victim, making them believe their personal information is already in their system. They proceed to make extravagant promises of loan forgiveness through the borrower defense to repayment program and charge a fee of 900 to 1200 dollars. United Aid Group will print out a free PDF document packet from the FSA website and mail that to the victim to fill out themselves. Something they can do for free on the FSA website with just a click of a button. United Aid group does not assist "clients" with evidence for their claim nor do they possess any "experience" or knowledge to guarantee a discharge. Every case is different for every student loan borrower. United Aid Group has been victimizing this unsuspecting borrowers and conning them out of millions of dollars. We will gradually release information of "James Russell French" and his fellow conspirators through this site and others. We are working with the State Attorneys of several states, just as we did when we went after 12 other Student loan "companies". We will keep you all updated.

These pictures were taken off of the company group Telegram chat. This post is an attempt of slander from an ex employee who was let go. These claims are all false and there is nothing to be investigated. The United Aid Group handles thousands of files in an ethical way. None of our clients have ever had a monetary loss as we always stand by our satisfaction guarantee. If a client is not happy with the services rendered, we always work with them to resolve the issue and refund if necessary. We understand that a lot of the clients we work with are victims of fraud from the for-profit colleges they've attended, so naturally they have their guard up. The majority of the slander on this website comes from ex employees of the firm who are seeking revenge for being let go from the team. If anyone who is a client of ours or is contemplating utilizing our services, please do not hesitate to contact us directly as we always do our best to resolve and reassure everyone we work with that they are working with an honest, ethical company.

I wanted to give a shout out to UAG because when I first heard about it through Facebook, no one else had -- and therefore, I was really nervous, because most people thought it was a scam. They needed my information up front, and that was also scary for me because I had never done this before. I did see that they had a location and the representative was so nice to me, I could sense their sincerity and I thought "Well, I'm desperate to get my loans in order & try to be forgiven..." I've had my share of scams on Craigslist, this seemed different... And it was!

A year and a half later, & they'd found a way to lower my payments by $1,000 per month by working DIRECTLY with the loan officers rather than going through Navient. That's why NOT a lot of people know about them! It's a freaking gold mine. It took a month or two of forbearance to get the regular payments in order & lowered, but it was worth it for me to be able to finally make payments consistently thereafter. This is an actual business, but the payments are so low & you save such a significant amount on your payments that it's worth it. They make sure whatever you pay is way lower than before (otherwise you probably don't need the service... It's kind of like a loan personal trainer lol). If you have your loans down & you are almost done paying them, you're probably good... But if you're like me & you have loans way in over your head, contact this loan cowboy & they will wrangle those loans UP!

What a joke! You have to be part of this scamming group. We haven’t had payments for 3 years due to COVID. So how is it even possible to “lower” payments. Beware with this people. Don’t believe me? Check out the “F” Rating on the better business bureau.

I was contacted by this company after requesting information regarding my loans. I didn’t know that these services existed. I had contacted my lender more than once to be told that I didn’t qualify for a lower payment because of the household income. After finally being able to confirm my actual balance United Aid assisted me and guided me to understand that there were options for me.

If You Are a Victim

If you are a victim of an Internet scam, the FBI recommends taking the following actions:

Report to the FBI Internet Crime Complaint Center at www.IC3.gov as quickly as possible.
Report the activity to the online payment service used for the financial transaction.
Contact your financial institution immediately to stop or reverse the transactions. Ask your financial institution to contact the corresponding financial institution where the fraudulent or suspicious transfer was sent.
Preserve any transaction information, including prepaid cards and banking records and all telephone, text, or e-mail communications.
Monitor your financial accounts and credit reports for fraudulent activity.
Report the fraud to the Department of Education at https://studentaid.gov/feedback-center and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) at www.consumerfinance.gov/complaint.
CALL THE “COMPANY” and record the call. Ask for the name of the person taking your call, confirm that they took a payment from you or that they are asking for a payment, and make sure you ask something that will identify them as United Aid Group. That will be used as evidence.

They reset your FSA password to steal your personal information. Once they gain access to your FSA portal they steal your social security and proceed to ask you for banking information before ending the call. That information is then sent overseas and used to open credit lines under your name and exploit your identity. Denouncing this company will save others from being scammed.
Scammers !!! Do not give them any personal information!!!

I see a lot of people screaming scam. I was extremely weary as well. I asked. TON of questions. I have loans from 3 different schools. Only one qualified after they looked into it. If they were scamming why would t they be the genie in the bottle and say they could get everything dismissed? The one school falls in the most of my loans and is 30k. The other two school are around 5k each. So to leave those small increments off it doesn’t make sense if it were a scam. They also didn’t charge my card right away. My payment date is the 28th of each month for the next 5 months. They email you the contract which is very detailed. The one thing I was extremely nervous about is when they asked for the pin that FSA texted and they reset my password. But they gave me that password and I have changed it. I spoke to Fritz and Yesenia. Both extremely friendly. I have fraud protection on my credit card so if anything. I’m not worried I also have fraud protection on my credit reports that notify me immediately of any pulls or any activity period. So far, nothing. It does seem very “scammy” at first bc we’re all drilled about the scams that go on especially recently. But unless you truly experienced being ACTUALLY scammed. Let’s not throw dirt on a company that has to make money helping borrowers with providing a service. Just my 2 cents.

I talked to someone from this “company” this morning. They asked for 1200 dollars in a 5 month period, yet they said I wouldn’t see the result of their work in 2 to 3 years. If that doesn’t scream SCAM, then what does? I mean, who in their right mind would pay a company hundreds of dollars for promises that will take 2 to 3 years to happen. Something that’s not even guaranteed in the first place, let alone even be done by this company who has not been around longer then 2 years itself. Look up their LLC on the California state registry. For you to encourage people to allow this company to access all of my personal information (including social), and to pay them over 1000 dollars for work that will take up to 2-3 years.. C’mon! Either your stupid, or you are the scammer. Just look at all this reviews and reports to the FTC! Are you calling this people liars? I suggest to those who are reading to call the department of education and ask them about this United Aid Group company. See what they tell you. YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELF FOR CONDONING FRAUD!

The FTC told me to call my bank and get my money back from the merchant I was charged from and to report it to them. French Mont LLC has been accused of fraud and is the Merchant this fraud company “United aid group” uses to cheat people out of their money. They said that they’re working on prosecuting the people behind this company but they’re having jurisdiction issues whatever that meant. A man that goes by Carol is running their operation. Be aware of this scammers and do not provide any personal information to them!
