AWFUL

The bad reviews are all accurate. I spoke with Bankston, only to call him to ask him what the current payoff is for one of my employees who I was trying to assist at the time. I tried to be so polite, using yes sir, no sir, thank you sir, I understand my employee did wrong and he wants to make this r...ight, I am willing to pay off the debt for him. At the end of the call, I felt like I was a low life criminal. If Mr. Bankston is so unhappy with his current profession maybe he should look for a different one. Common courtesy and respect should be granted to everyone!

Would Not Recommend

After COVID affected my small business, I entered into a credit recovery program. This attorney was the only creditor who refused to work with me on this debt. His methods were heavy handed and lacked any professionalism or empathy.

Horrible customer service

My family member owe Baton Rouge Credit. This so call Lawyer answered the phone with a nasty attitude and talked to us like we were the scum of the earth. We were trying to make payment arrangements toward her debt. That unprofessional so called lawyer told me to hang up the phone like I was his chil...d. I don't know what his problem is but he needs anger management and customer service classes. He should never work with the public again until he learn how to talk to people with respect. He needs his license taken away period and maybe find another way to make a living maybe working with animals.
