Look, I’m no fan of collections agencies trying to pin and pinch you, but I have to admit that Stephanie at Summit AR did a phenomenal job. She went above and beyond to get me the documents I needed to get back in good standing with my car rental company. Overall, I had a very pleasant and surprisingly great experience working with them.

I had Nate as my representative and throughout the entire process he was professional, kind, and funny. I’ll be honest, I was nervous because I never had to deal with debt collectors before but he had made the process very easy! On our last call, today, I had let him know that I wanted to leave a review for him since I thought he was awesome. Luckily, I was able to pay off my debt in 3 months rather than 6! Awesome job to you Nate and keep up the amazing work that you do.

Lisa from the communications team was unbelievably helpful. She took the time to communicate with with, and help me find a resolution - and did the right thing. She could teach a course on how to provide excellent customer service. Extremely professional and timely. She did what she said and said what she did. Give her a raise and a promotion. She deserves it!!
