Issue: Confusing or misleading advertising or marketing — 
Company: Consumer Financial Services Solutions, Inc. (TX)

I was misled by the sales agent during our initial phone call and have now paid {$4400.00} into my dedicated account and only one settlement has been reached in the amount of {$1600.00}. I was only able to find this out by requesting a transaction statement, otherwise, I can't see what fees or anything are being charged. I specifically asked the agent about owing taxes on any amount negotiated and he told me that I would not owe taxes due to the creditors having some agreement with them under COVID relief. He added, if I do get a 1099-C, to send to Beyond Finance for them to take care of. This year, I received one in the amount of {$600.00} causing me to owe more on our taxes. I have called and attempted to speak to the agent and keep being told they would email him and he would call me back. He has never returned my call. I have complained about the misrepresentation to other representatives and was told they have never had any COVID program and they referred me to the fine print in the agreement. I unenrolled all of the credit accounts I could but still have one pending. The agreement says if I unenroll during the settlement phase they will get to keep all of their fees as if they actually finished the settlement despite not performing the agreed service fully. I'm not sure how they can legally collect their FULL fees vs just the ones they've already charged. 

I'm not sure what to do as it's been a year, my credit is worse than before, I'm owing more now than when I enrolled and I'm stuck. I'm set to complete their program by XX/XX/23, at which point, I will have paid this company a total of XXXX for them to only have " resolved '' my debt for less than XXXX XXXX and then owe even more to the IRS next year when I receive another 1099-C. Their fees are predatory and at least one agent materially misrepresented the agreement.
