Ulises, we apologize for your experience. We do have Spanish-speaking representatives. During long hold times, we give consumers the option to hold or leave a voicemail for a briefing in their preferred language. Thank you for your feedback. We will address it with the department manager.

Thank you Sam for your feedback. We take the satisfaction of our clients seriously and apologize that the course did not meet your expectations. The course content and phone briefing portion have been approved by the executive office of US trustees and are a requirement for a bankruptcy filing, although there is no obligation to use a specific service provider for your bankruptcy course needs. I have forwarded your comments to a supervisor for review.
