How to check Young America yourself

  1. Use contact details you found yourself. Go to the company's own website or the number on your card or statement - never a number or link from a text, email or caller.
  2. Check its licence. Check with your state's financial regulator or attorney general that the company is licensed to do business with you.
  3. Read the latest complaints. Look for the same problem again and again in the complaint log, and at how they were answered.
  4. Read people's own experiences. See what others say about Young America, and add yours.
  5. Get everything in writing before you pay, sign or share anything.
