=================================
H.A.F.C. told me they can erase all my bad credit for $250.00 and send me a cd for $20.00 on keeping my credit A1. I sent them $270.00 in Jan. of 2008 and my credit is still bad. Everytime I called them for the first five months they told me they are still working on it. Well this week I called them because it have being over six months and all the lines are out of service. I just want my money back because that's alot of money to just give away and get nothing in return. Is there something we can do to try and get our money back?

Complaints should be addressed to the FTC prosecuting attorney.
They were shut down by the FTC for alleged violations of several laws: THE CREDIT REPAIR ORGANIZATIONS ACT, THE TELEMARKETING SALES RULE, and SECTION 5 OF THE FTC ACT. Civil Action No. 3:08-CV-1001-J-34JRK. FTC File No. 082 3007.
On October 23, 2008 the District Court ordered all assets and records of LATRESE & KEVIN ENTERPRISES INC.(DBA Hargrave & Associates Financial Solutions) into temporary receivership with Lewis B. Freeman appointed as temporary receiver for the court. There was a preliminary hearing scheduled for November 3, 2008, but the FTC has not yet posted the results of that hearing on the FTC website.
Any client of this outfit should read the complaint and the temporary restraining order at the FTC.gov website:

I would also suggest that anyone with a claim or complaint against this outfit contact the prosecuting attorney Jessica D. Gray BEFORE establishing further contact with ANYONE associated with this outfit.

Hope this helps and good luck.
Update: This matter is still being litigated in District Court. I searched PACER and there have been filings from the plaintiff and defendant. It may be a while before restitution (if any) is forthcoming to consumers.
