Sub-product: Credit repair services
Issue: Fraud or scam

Complaint:
We signed a contract with Lexington Law to help us repair our credit on XX/XX/23. The initial fee was {$69.00}. They took out over {$400.00} dollars in XXXX month : XX/XX/23 ; XX/XX/23 ; XX/XX/23 ; with no results on my account or my friends account. They have violated my customer consumer law under CROA because they have been charging upfront fees for a service they did not accomplish. Lexington Law has been charging me monthly to remove negatives from my credit report. I was informed verbally that this was a family plan, that we would be charged {$130.00} a month for the both of us, not separate as we are a family & live together. They were suppose to refund me 3-5 business days from XX/XX/23 & when I called today, XX/XX/23, they kept saying they can only refund once they investigate the phone call, as every call is recorded. I requested the recorded phone call & they did not want to release it by giving me the run around. However, they proceeded to refund me half of that money after claiming my legal rights to receive all of my money back.
