On July 11, 2024, the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida appointed Jared J. Perez as temporary receiver (the “ Receiver ” and the “ Receivership ”) over, in relevant part, (1) Start Connecting LLC, d/b/a USA Student Debt Relief, and (2) Start Connecting SAS, d/b/a both USA Student Debt Relief and Start Connecting (the “ Receivership Entities ”). See Federal Trade Commission v. Start Connecting LLC, et al ., Case No. 8:24-cv-1626-KKM-AAS (M.D. Fla.). Douglas R. Goodman, Doris E.
Given the allegations made by the Federal Trade Commission, as described in more detail below, the Receiver recommends that all consumers who engaged USA Student Debt Relief contact their student loan servicers both directly and as soon as possible to determine whether their accounts are in good standing as well as their current monthly payment amounts and total balances. Failure to do so could result in missed payments and default. Do not rely on representations made by USA Student Debt Relief.
