Company: John C. Heath, Attorney at Law, PLLC (NY)

I am writing this complaint regarding the services provided by the Lexington Law Firm for repairing my credit report. I started making payments at XXXX XXXX XXXX. I paid XXXX every month and promised me that my credit would be fix in less than 6 months.Unfortunately, I am extremely dissatisfied with the outcome of their services, as they have failed to make any significant improvement to my credit report. 

I initially contacted Lexington Law Firm several months ago with the hope of repairing my credit report, as it contained several errors and negative marks that were impacting my financial wellbeing. I provided them with all the necessary information and documentation they requested, and they assured me that they would be able to help me improve my credit score. 

However, after paying a substantial amount of money for their services and waiting for months, I found out that they had done very little to repair my credit report. In fact, my credit score had barely improved, and many of the negative marks that were supposed to be removed were still present on my credit report. 
Despite numerous attempts to contact the firm to address these issues, I have not received any satisfactory response from them. This lack of accountability and transparency is unacceptable and has left me feeling frustrated and disappointed. After they terminated my because I was complaining they charged me {$8.00} a month unlawfully. 

Therefore, I request that the Lexington Law Firm take immediate action to rectify the situation by either refunding my money from XXXX XXXX XXXX. I hope that this matter can be resolved as soon as possible and that such a situation will not arise for any other customer in the future.
