My husband and I joined this program in Oct. 2003, have paid in over 20,000 of which 7310.00 was their "Fee" and then they resolved a credit card for us at 7805.00 we still had 5000 in escrow when I got a call yesterday telling me that USCM was going bankrupt and we had lost every thing. (This call was made by a employee that discovered what was going on and confronted the owners.)

So after I cried my eyes out I got ticked and being as I only live 2 hours from this business I decided I would go there and demand my money. I threw one heck of a fit. I was told there was no such company and the names that I had been given by the ex employee where no where to be found. SO I ended up leaving my name and number to a woman that game me her name as Missy Herra (which was later found out to be an alis and she was really Laura Durdick the accounts payable and receiveable for USCM. She gave me her cell number and took mine and said she would do so investigating and call me by Monday. Before I left I told them I would be back in a week to talk to the owner or some one in charge and I would have my attorney and the local news with me. However I left and was no more than 10 minute out from their office "Missy" called and told me to come back she was getting my check in the amount of what was left in my escrow. When I talked to the ex employee I gave them Missy Cell number and then learned that who Missy really was. I also found out that Dr. Herman Coerra, Melton Coerra, & William Ricardo are the Chairman, CEO, AND you guessed President.

I encourage any one that got screwed by this company to go there demand your money. They will tell you they filed bankruptcy on this past Monday they haven't yet and they are doing business as WWDS. Which is World Wide Debt Solutions. So beware. This company should not be confused by World Debt Solutions for World Debt Solutions is a HONEST Company.

I did repeat did get my escrow and now going after my "Fees" since they obviously didn't do anything to earn it.

#1 UPDATE EX-employee responds

WDS Honest? So was Al Capone.

AUTHOR: Jarrod - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Friday, January 13, 2006

I understand your frustration and aggravation that you are experiencing in this situation. I am, now, an ex-employee of US Credit Management. Understand that everyone that is left at that company is worried as to what an angry customer is capable of. If your were given the name "Missy," it is possible that she was protecting herself and her children. Would you give your name if it was as uncommon as "Durdick?" Ms. "Durdick" has always had the utmost respect for our clients. Many of them have sent thank you letters for her. It is unfortunate that she is in the situation she is in. But, this The ex-employee that you have been speaking of had voiced concerns about angry clients showing up for some time prior to leaving. One of the former employees was so worried about it that he got a concealed handgun license.

Understand that consumers, like you, would have been privy to the knowledge of bankruptcy had we not aligned ourselves with "World Debt Solutions." This "honest" and "reputable" company is just as guilty as Rusty Hilger, the ex-CEO that actually squandered and wasted your funds. We were preparing to update the phone system greeting to inform the remaining clients, and those who had cancelled out, that the company was filing for bankruptcy. Alberto Camacho had them shut off. He threatened the phone provider with a lawsuit. Our phone system was setup as World Debt Solutions, LLC. You see, Alberto Camacho and the investors were once very close. He still calls them quite often and threatens them over $$$ he says he is owed. (Which I emphatically add he is NOT) It was only after he was terminated from the company, and yes, he did recieve paychecks from US CREDIT MANAGEMENT as a Chief Operations Officer, that this whole thing started. If it wasn't for Alberto, USCM clients would know what was happening when they called in. That would not make it any better, BUT at least they wouldn't get the disconnected phone numbers. If they try to rebuttle this, this is the last email between alberto and myself. Dated, Friday 01/06/2003 at 12:33 CST:

"Worlddebtsolution.com, .net - Worlddebtsolutions.com, .net;

These 4 domains have now been transferred to World Debt Solutions LLC per your request. After this, there is no business left for you and I to discuss. Feel free to lose my name, number, and any other contact information you might have accumulated.

On a personal note: Don't go away mad, just go away

JM"

I would encourage ANYONE and EVERYONE to do a public records investigation, specifically in the Tennessee courts for one Alberto Camacho, the registered member of this company, prior to doing business with this HONEST and REPUTABLE company. In retrospect, I wish we had. It is in my opinion that he was just another blood-sucking crook who promised the world, and just got away with company funds.

Interestingly enough, theft of company data, even if in bankruptcy, is still a crime in the state of texas. Although alot of USCM clients may appreciate what he did, not even the whistle blower laws cover this one. I hope that the Bankruptcy and criminal attorneys prosecute those responsible in taking your money. I honestly do.

On a side note, do you think that this ex-employee felt any guilt while collecting a paycheck - knowing the situation at hand? I say no. And to ALL USCM Clients, does it not bother you that they STOLE your client data. Who knows what information that they might have, Social Security Numbers, Drivers License, etc.... I assure you though, the information contained in our database was secure. What they took was handwritten on notepads. To those responsible, They do have video.
