I have tried researching many through the years ain't nobody as knowledgeable and affective as Kristin is, trust me if you go anywhere else you're throwing your money away. I have seen nothing but success and don't believe any of the negativity as Kristin will get the job done, she will stay in touch, as whatever she does is magic in the credit repair field. All joking aside, she's extremely knowledgeable, professional and knows what she's doing. If you're going to hire someone to help you with your credit , use Kristin for true permanent results. read more

DO NOT FALL FOR THIS SCAM Unfortunately, I didn't see all the horrible reviews until after I had already given her everything I had, trusting her claims of "15 years of experience." Nothing was ever done on my credit, and once I paid, all communication stopped. I feel like a fool for believing it, but I'm sharing this so no one else makes the same mistake. Please do your research before giving money to anyone promising a "72-hour credit sweep", grants, or or instant results. This is a scam, and I truly hope no one else gets taken advantage of like I did. read more

Listen and listen closely, thoroughly disappointed in Kristen, she is so knowledgeable but uses what's left of her influence to scam people. I've been listening to her for a while, finally reached out to do business with her and sent payment, after talking to her on the phone for about 30 min she reassured me of her efficiency, and that was it. She never answered another call or text! She scammed me out of $7300 dollars. Kristen is an evil evil manipulative lying and deceitful woman. Everyone who's been scammed by her, I'll be in contact with you. We will get her. Do NOT watch another video. Report her YouTube so she can't do it to anyone else and call your bank and report her fraud. Leave the rest up to me! read more

I also trusted this company and Kristin Vargas. She took my money, requested through bitcoin, and never replied back. She has had in the past charges against her from New York also. THIS IS A SCAM!!! I wish I could somehow get her prosecuted. This should be a ZERO or a minus 100. She stole my money, while walking me through how to send the bitcoin for a grant. She also has court records against her from New York. THIS IS A SCAM!!! Don't believe a word she says. I wish I knew how to file charges against her. read more

SCAM ALERT! If you want to be scammed, Kristin is the girl for the job. She promised me a "tradeline" for $250 and ran off. She's blocked me from emails, texts and calls. She's dodging the court paperwork that I'm attempting to serve her and is using my social security number! She will steal your identity! read more

I'm just realizing that I also got played. I spent $375 via Bitcoin and we all know that is non refundable. Wow!!! That's all I can say.

Expert Credit Sweeps - Some BS here - Debt Relief Services Near Me

I admit I was sucked into Kristin Vargas, AKA Kristin Kitchen's YouTube channel. She updates dozens of times a week and seems knowledgeable about credit repair. She is also known as Expert Credit Sweeps, Vargas Consulting, Vargas Consulting Works, Ask Kristin, Adrian Vargas, and My740. She will call you for a consultation and have you send in your ID, social security #, and the whole bit, but she won't do any credit repair. I canceled and filed a claim with my credit card company. I am terrified she will retaliate by further destroying my credit and stealing my identity. Did I mention she's sold stolen SSN's before? Her credit repair is just a front for a scam. She was investigated by the State of New York. Search her name on the website for the New York State Attorney's Office Northern District of New York, and you will learn she conspired with others to sell stolen social security numbers. Do not give this woman your personal information! read more

I have been a victim for 7 months now, nothing has happened or changed with my credit report, can't get a response from them when responding to the various emails they randomly send you, these fake emails say "we are working on your account, your client portal will be updated". Yet no update, no response to messages in the client portal or any where you try to message them. Every time I send an email to get an update, the email bounces back as undeliverable. I have called the various phone numbers they show as their number, get no response, the number says text them for immediate response and those get no "immediate response" they get no response at all. I have filed a complaint with the FTC and CFPB, I have requested chargebacks from my CC. I have also sent all my emails, text messages and screenshots from the client portal to my attorney for review for civil action. Vargas Consulting must be stopped and shutdown. I will make this happen, nobody else will be scammed and robbed by this person. read more

She is a scammer! Do your research on her company on BBB. She being taking my money and no update or impossible to reach her for months! My credit report comments did not even say any updates with regards to the account being disputed. She lies and good at it! Stay away from her company and herself!!! Trust me. Save yourself the time, money and headache... Saw this on YouTube bewarned with regards to her. https://youtu.be/fu5GYTIdV-c read more

If I could give her zero stars I would. I feel like a dummy. I should have researched her. Now I know for a fact she scammed me out of over $600. She claimed to have sent letters out, however none of the bureaus have records of receiving any letters. I was told she sends out certified mail. I requested copies. I have sent her so many emails, put in tickets and have received no response from her. She is a scammer. In the time that I have been emailing her, she has posted 50 videos to Youtube. I watched her videos ands trusted her, spoke to her and she sold me on a bunch of lies. You just can't trust anyone today. Do not under any circumstance give this evil woman your money. She obviously has no morals and is a thief. She cares nothing of her clients. So many similar stories. read more

She has been amazing with helping get my credit back on track. Not only has she helped, she has taught me and guided me on this journey. The thing that I appreciate about her service is that she is a straight forward and setups Real expectations. No sugar coating!! Honesty and integrity is what I have experienced. I would highly recommend her services!! read more

I wish I would have looked at these reviews before I got scammed by her. I'm lucky she only got me for 150. She literally just took my money and didn't do anything and maybe responded like once. She definitely seems like she know what she is talking about but she is definitely a scammer read more

I have tried to contact her for months as to what she is doing on my credit file and she doesn't respond for over 3 months I tried texting, voicemail, email, and her portal... She doesn't respond... I stopped her from charging my account and she sent this threatening letter... Why in the world do I have a chargeback from you? Not only have I rendered over 10 HOURS that you didn't pay for, but you received all the dispute copies, all negatives disputed each round, creditor/collector disputes that I did not charge you for, custom disputes and not templates and I didn't lock you in! Additionally, you're paying for services rendered, not future services. So, I'm not sure what your issue is, but in 2 hours I will be sending over all documentation, video, receipts, proof, contract, payment authorization, disputes, proof of sending, and more to my merchant as well as your bank and when that occurs, your file will also be sent over to collections for the full amount of the program + the fees you've caused me. At that point, I will also notify the credit bureaus that you've been working with a credit repair company when I void your disputes, which will bar you from ANY future disputes on these accounts. You may also want to check out your contract that you signed because you agreed to all of this when you signed up and they will receive that as well as a picture of you filling out the contract itself for verification. You will need to immediately reverse your chargeback. You have 2 hours. read more

This lady is a SCAM. Stay away from her. She charged my husband and I $720 each and she wanted the payments via Zelle. She didn't remove any negative items off of the reports. She knows how to rip people off. read more

She has scammed me out of $400. She is convincing that she will help you. She will send you convincing files that she is sending letters to the credit buearu's. She has a website that is believed at first, but you will quickly see she doesn't update it. I tried contacting her for 8 weeks with no response. Then, when you stop paying, she will threaten you that she has your personal information, berate you by accusing you of being a thief since you have delinquent debt. She also threatened me that she sent me to collections and filed theft of services charges. All because I asked for a refund. I hired lexington Law to repair my credit, and they told me no disputes were received by the 3 credit bureaus in 2021 when I hired her. When I canceled, I found out that she had pending charges in New York for fraud. She pleaded guilty to fraud in May 2022. Please do not let this woman scam you. She may seem to know what she is talking about, but do not give her your money. read more

This lady is a complete SCAMMER. Do yourself a favor and look elsewhere for quality credit service. I contacted Kristin in November of 2021, she called for our 15 minute consultation, and I paid her $139 to get started. She also required me to sign up for a credit monitoring service (which I did for another fee) a week later after hearing nothing from her I decided to email her again to see if there was anything else I needed to do, she didn't respond. I emailed her several more times with no response so I decided this was a bad idea. I'd finally had enough so I emailed her again (to the only email address I had) and asked her to cancel the service and not charge me again. Of course she didn't respond and she didn't charge me in December so I thought we were done. I wake up to a receipt for new charges in January 2022 for another $139 and access to some portal. On the portal access email, I found a different link to email her so I did. I'm attaching our correspondence so you can see for yourself her response and also her terms and conditions for cancellation. Whew! What terrible customer service. For the record, my email was Dec. 6, 2021, her response was Jan. 15 2022. read more

Sucks! $850 later and my score went down. What a joke. She sells it hard and I bought it. BS ... use your money to build your credit rather than putting your hopes on dream. That's what she offers ... a dream. OR pay her ... I wish you the best. In response to her response .... I DID send her my log in info .... I then sent her proof that I did send her the log in info. No mention of that??? Look ... with all that she did my credit score went backwards ... I don't give crap about how much work you've done ... the results speak for themselves. If you want to pay her after reading this then go ahead it's your money .... she may actually "fix" your credit but far as I'm concerned it's a scam. You don't take someone's money with results like this and claim it's the clients fault. Wow ... if she was as good at disputing my report as she is trying to prove this has been my fault maybe my score would have improved lol. What a joke. read more

I found this jem (Expert Credit Sweeps) by accident on You Tube in 2020! After watching a few videos, I was hooked. She had so much knowledge regarding this industry that I was just tapping into. Sometime later I had the pleasure of joining one of her mentoring programs! Let me just tell you that she is amazing at what she does. She can dissect a credit report in two tenths of a second and a has a wealth of resources to assist; whether you're repairing your own credit or you're a credit repair agency seeking help. Kristin has always been gracious and available anytime I've needed her, that even includes when her kids were sick. If you are looking for someone to help you restore your credit, please reach out to her. I promise you won't be disappointed! She is the GOAT!!!!!!! read more

Learned a lot from your free Content and Paid Services are even more awesome!! Thanks for all your hard work! Keep it up!!!! read more

Do not use this service!!! She is extremely unprofessional and does not respond to calls, emails or voicemails. Worked with her for 7 months and nothing was removed. She also has been in the news for identity fraud. You can see the video on YouTube. I would highly suggest doing research before working with her she has a ton of clients who share the same sentiment as I do. She is a one person show and spends a great deal of time creating content on Youtube and not enough time responding to clients or processing files. read more

Horrible, no even one email responded. She took my money and left. This is upsetting! Come to find out she is in the news for fraud. Do not make business with this lady. No even one email responded. Send my information all I get is garbage emails. read more

I have been a client and I am dissatisfied with the service. Kristin does not reply to any communications and my score actually went down. This is after four months of using the "program". I suggest to anyone that you save your money, watch YouTube videos and start the process yourself. There are more reputable companies out there that won't sacrifice your personal data and may even actually help you. read more

There's a few stuff I wasn't happy about. Poor customer service, not following up 1 on 1, maybe because she does everything herself? Which is not good for business. Started in November and didn't get anything from bureaus until Feb? Oh I emailed her a few times and she probably responded twice? One was quick when I inquire about her software. Go figure? But when I'm asking about questions about my report it takes awhile or doesn't reply. Also, the portal she uses I messaged her twice on there and NEVER responded. Find someone else! read more

From my personal experience, Expert Credit Sweeps is a company that delivers something rare these days, which is the "Human-Touch." My first experience was through a series of educational videos hosted by Kristin on her YouTube channel. She came across as friendly, professional, compassionate, transparent, and extremely knowledgeable. The amount of free and accurate information Kristin shared was incredible. It was obvious that this lady not only has a mind for all aspects of credit repair but also a genuine passion for helping others. Honestly, her prices are below the market rate, especially considering the amount of work she does. Kristin, keep-up your outstanding work. You are a blessing in the lives of those you continue to help. As far as Abe S., he is a perfect example of what is wrong with our country today. The review written by Abe S. is obviously a FAKE REVIEW. Actually, it strikes me as one that is written by a competitor of hers in the same business. All I can say is, Shame on YOU Abe, you are definitely No Lincoln. Yours is a SAD commentary which only points back to YOU! read more

After attempting to fix my credit report on my own for over a year with very little success. One day doing the beginning stage of COVID I was surfing the web looking for credit repair information and came across one of Kristen video. After listening to a few of Kristen videos I decided to take Kristen advise in regards to dispute with factual proof from my credit file. It seem to make a lot of sense. After disputing my first round with factual base information directly from my credit file I finally where able to see deletions from all three credit bureau's. I continue to follow Kristen advice in turns of factual base dispute and keeping my dispute short and straight to the point. After only six months of factual base disputing directly from my credit file I have have been able to remove over 30 derogatory items between all three credit bureau's. Kristen, I want to thank you for all your helpful and very honest advice. You have no ideal how you have help me with my credit and being able to move forward financially. It's people like you that give people like me hope again. I know that there are other credit restoration companies out there but you are top notch. keep up the great work sharing and pushing factual base disputing it work. I will share what I have learned from you with other who face the same credit challenges. Thanks again for everything. O yeah, although you do a great job with your videos you are funny as hell. I enjoy watching, listening and learning from you. read more

This lady is a liar. She doesn't do anything she said she is doing. You can call email on you will get nothing. I had to make a negative comment on her YouTube video just to finally get a response from her. I did a complaint with the CFPB at first with all the companies she was supposedly sending letters too. Come to find out they were not getting any letters which makes since because I wasn't getting any response this went on for the six months I was a client with her. She then said how about I send my letters myself. I paid you over $1000 to send the letters myself wow. Then she said she offered me six months service for free but took it back after I made the complaint with the CFPB. Trust me this lady is not doing what she is saying she is doing. If you have any questions before you give your money to her please let me know. read more

Do not use her services. I have been a client for a year and nothing has dropped off my credit report. Not only that I have been trying to contact Kristen for over a month and she will not return my text, or calls. Horrible customer service, but she will take your money with no problem! read more

Beware! This woman is a fast talker! Please do your homework on Mrs. Kristin Vargas, aka Kristin Kitchens or whoever else she might be! I was in her program for several months, no changes, no updates only recurring canned emails and propaganda. Thank God I caught it in time I was paying her faithfully! No results, She was just collecting the money! I urge anyone who is reading this NOT to do business with Expert Credit Sweeps! read more

Well I been a Client for 2 months, and I'm 100% satisfied with Kristin business. Started off with 495 501 502 credit scores and within two months 597 619 and 621 credit Fico scores, WITH 100% Payment history. Just gotten a 1500.00 line of credit from my bank (I wouldn't have NEVER thought it would be possible that fast) but if she can do it for me then I KNOW she can do it for ANYONE!!!!! 4 more months left and Im SO excited, and this is 100% FACTS NO B.S GUARANTEED read more

Terrible customer service. Hardly responds if at all. Both to emails and her website tickets!

Kristin has helped me in many ways , she responds to emails and texts, she most definitely knows what she is doing and providing accurate information. She has provided over 200 free content to the public of great information , I have never seen someone work hard as she does. She loves helping people and the public i am #TeamKristin read more

Kristin doesn't respond to questions in her ticket portal or email. She has you pay for Identity IQ and never runs it! I wasted over $1,400 on NOTHING!! What a thief! For people with messed up credit who are already struggling and pay for this to get help, don't do it!!! Find someone else or do it yourself! Update after Kristen's response: $139 a month is self service? Maybe you should be more clear! You had me paying for Identity IQ and haven't run it since 2/2/2020. I asked you several times if I could update it to use the tool because you instruct your clients not to update it! You ignored every single email regarding that. And I don't find that to be a waste of time email to you when I'm paying each month for something you aren't even using! Your communication is horrendous and yes I paid you $139 since last August so you do the math. I don't care what it cost you or what you paid you ignored the ticket in your portal that you tell your clients to use so go ahead please post your "responses" to my ticket and emails!! You can't because you have been ignoring me. I never said you didn't do any disputes. You never read that so don't insinuate that I said you did nothing. I stated the facts of how you ignore people who pay you who reach out for real stuff not just oh Kristen can u tell me this Kristen can u tell me that. I wanted to run my Identity IQ!!!! Was trying to follow your rules. I don't think that was an unreasonable thing to ask you!!!!!! The only reason you are responding now is because it's yelp. You didn't respond to my very kind email parting ways on June 29th because you don't care!! read more

Kristin Vargas is a liar and a thief. Please do not waste your time or money with this company. She didn't remove anything. She took my money and I never received any disputes from her. She said she sent them to the credit bureaus. After not receiving a response from the credit bureaus. I called and they told me there were no disputes on file for me. Kristin will also lie and tell you not to contact the credit bureaus because they will not let you know if there is a dispute on file. I paid her 650.00 which is now down the drain. read more

I am doing reaserch on this company. I have read 40 different reviews or so, including the ones on other places. Looked and reviewed the information and am looking for inconsistencies. I have only come to this expert and educated conclusion. The single rating that has rated this company a one out of five is not from a real person. The pattern of information bullet points each and every majior concern a consumer would have questions about. I myself advocate for at-risk groups and populations and am constantly reviewing programs and services that can help people... Especially single parent mother's and those that are homeless. I have 10 years experience, a master's degree and three others and I am telling you all. This service is spot on. I do not know anyone that works for this company, I am not paid to say anything good, I have not even sopken with anyone that works for this company... As of yet. Experts do intensive reaserch, know exactly what to expect and what they want, and then pick up the phone. However, this company is in my permanent file as a solid company that does very good work. Thought people should know. And yes absolutely, eventually I will be calling. read more

I have felt so much relief with my credit situation! Kris is AWESOME! She helped me where other so called credit repair specialists could not. She is ALWAYS adding value and she wants to see you win. I have become more educated on how to build excellent credit and also I have learned the RIGHT WAY to dispute with the Creditors! I thank God for her. Now you can look around town, you search YouTube and Facebook all day, you can't print out ALL THE automated and crappy dispute letters you want! When everything keeps coming back VERIFIED and you still using those letter saying "this account ain't mine ‍" You're wasting your time, if you want results call Kris! No she's not free! But every dollar paid is worth it! Her passion, her service and her skill set are second to none!!!! read more

I've given Kristen plenty of time to prove her service is worth it even against my intuition telling me not to do so. Total scam. Yes, you'll pay $160 a month for a service, but the service you'll receive is a bunch of emails with "information" that you may or may not have time to put to use. Almost 6 months into the membership and zero has been done, the needle has not moved. Not a single positive or negative update, THAT is the hands-down most frustrating part. I took the leap of faith and trusted Kristen to help repair my credit, but it was too good to be true just to shell out $160 a month and no option for customer service and everything would great! There may be others that offer the service Kristen does, I would check those places out and pass on Expert Credit Sweeps. I have a feeling I'll get a response from Kristen here, but not to any of the emails I've sent directly to her asking for SOME sort of update. read more
