05 April 2023 08:39I had a stroke at 40 years old and have not been able to work for 2 years with a low probability of ever returning to full-work. I was without income for 18 months until I finally received my employer LTD benefit (less 30% legal fees). I have not been able to keep up with credit card payments for the past years (had no idea Cigna would give me the runaround like they did). However, I received a lump sum back payment plus a monthly recurring payment of 60% of my previous income. I was not sure if I should settle my credit cards at this point. I owed Chase B of A, Discover and Citi. Chase is by far the largest balance of Approx. $20k. I have explored bankruptcy, but I have some income producing real estate assets I cannot protect and even my paid vehicle is above the state limit for exemption. While I was researching credit repair I read good reviews about PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST and decided to cast my burden upon PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST. The good news is that they fixed my credit in less than 6 days and cleaned up the negative items from my report including the debt I owed. I don’t know how to appreciate PINNACLE enough. Here is the contact: (323) 406-1225. EMAIL: PINNACLECREDITSPECIALIST@GMAIL.COM

02 April 2023 17:11My husband and I are self-employed architects; we made most of our income from buying, renovating and selling houses in Florida. In 2005 we had our first child, followed immediately by Hurricane Wilma and the beginning of the downturn in the real estate market (at least in Miami). Lost income from clients who could no longer pay, plummeting real-estate values and a non-existent job market for architects left us with virtually no income for four years. We used our credit cards and savings, my 401k, sold our home at a huge loss, all with the idea that the market had to pick up soon and we would then be able to pay off our debts without filing for bankruptcy. We were terrified of bankruptcy because we depended on being able to get a mortgage to finance home purchases and renovations, our main source of income. In retrospect not filing was a mistake, the market never recovered in time for us and we accumulated a massive amount of credit card debt which we could not pay, somewhere around $50-60,000. Much of this has been charged off or we negotiated settlements; however, we have two judgements, Amex for $1136 and Chase for $8566, which I’m going to try and settle, and a Citibank account that was bought by Asset Acceptance, original balance of $16,166 now pumped up to $26,340. I read about PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST on Quora and I didn’t hesitate to contact him, to my greatest surprise, all the debts were cleared completely including the charge offs and credit card debts. More so our credit score was increased to 811 and 804 respectively. All thanks to PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST the saviour I met a few months ago. You can reach him via PINNACLECREDITSPECIALIST@GMAIL.COM or Text him on +1 (323) 406 1225. Cheers.
