TASC Throws USOBA on the Sword, Runs to Next Industry to Plunder

For the past few weeks I have really been scratching my head and trying to figure out just what the heck is going on over at TASC and USOBA. It seems as if they are the only ones that didn’t get the memo that the days of the rip off, “front loaded fee” debt settlement company are [...]

USOBA and TASC Set Industry Standard – Don’t Trip Over The Bar

Damon — Thu, 29 Apr 2010 05:23:13 +0000

A few days ago a debt settlement salesperson went into a public forum and basically told me I was full of it for saying TASC and USOBA are not really looking out for consumers. As evidence, he claims that he was secretly shopped by TASC and it was found that he didn’t lie to the [...]

Most of My Articles are about Debt Settlement – Why?

Damon — Mon, 22 Mar 2010 05:35:59 +0000

A reader that glances at my blog might mistakenly conclude that I recommend consumers pursue a debt settlement strategy far more often than I would any other. If that is not the case, then why does the topic of debt settlement, at least thus far, clearly dominate much of the content on this blog? Simple. [...]

Legacy Debt Solutions vs Credit Solutions – Who Can Bankrupt a Client Faster?

Damon — Sat, 13 Mar 2010 04:19:36 +0000

Hiring a debt settlement company using a front loaded fee model endorsed by TASC and USOBA is more likely to lead a consumer to Bankruptcy then to a successfully completed settlement program. There are various reasons why this is unfortunately true, but one of the most obvious to me is that debt settlement salespeople for [...]

As an aside to the 5 part series that I am writing on the Association of Settlement Companies, I wanted to provide a simple way to understand the thinking behind the formation of TASC, as I see it.

The Association of Settlement Companies – TASC – An Introduction

Damon — Sat, 21 Nov 2009 20:22:26 +0000

One might wonder what is motivating me to write a series of posts dedicated to The Association of Settlement Companies (TASC).
