Hargrave And Associates helped themselves to my money Jacksonville Florida
*Consumer Suggestion: They were shut down by the FTC.
*REBUTTAL Owner of company: we do apologize
I contacted Hargrave and Associates after hearing about them from relative and hearing their advertisements on the radio. I sent them $250.00 becuase they promised to clean my credit and raise my credit score. I was told that I would be hearing from them in a few dys and it has been two months with no contact. I tried the telephone number listed and it keeps giving a busy signal. I feel like I have been violated. These individuals practically stole $250.00 from me. I was so convincedthat they were legitimate, I convinced my father to use theri services. Needless to say, he has lost $250.00 also. I want my money back.

#2 Consumer Suggestion
They were shut down by the FTC.
AUTHOR: Robert - (U.S.A.)
SUBMITTED: Thursday, December 04, 2008
They were shut down by the FTC.
Complaints should be addressed to the FTC prosecuting attorney.
They were shut down by the FTC for alleged violations of several laws: THE CREDIT REPAIR ORGANIZATIONS ACT, THE TELEMARKETING SALES RULE, and SECTION 5 OF THE FTC ACT. Civil Action No. 3:08-CV-1001-J-34JRK. FTC File No. 082 3007.
On October 23, 2008 the District Court ordered all assets and records of LATRESE & KEVIN ENTERPRISES INC.(DBA Hargrave & Associates Financial Solutions) into temporary receivership with Lewis B. Freeman appointed as temporary receiver for the court. There was a preliminary hearing scheduled for November 3, 2008, but the FTC has not yet posted the results of that hearing on the FTC website.
Any client of this outfit should read the complaint and the temporary restraining order at the FTC.gov website:
