Wink GWCA question (again)

I know that this question was asked just recently, but I am going to ask it again. Can you please contact me if you have used GWCA to adopt. My husband and I are looking into adoption and after receiving their information I would like some feedback from families that have used them.

Thanks a ton, Carrie

Carrie,
Doesn't GWCA have a list of people you can call directly? I was sent a list of 20 people or more. It helped a lot!

Hi Carrie,

I agree about contacting the people from GWCA's reference list. I ended up doing this because I did not get too many responses from the forum.

All of the people that responded to me were so helpful! They are happy to share their experiences plus answer any questions you have. Because of all the positive responses we got, it confirmed our decision to go with GWCA.

The list includes e-mail addresses which may be more cost effective than calling everyone for your initial responses. If you feel you would like to talk to them further, you can always call.

Good luck!
Ivy

We are using GWCA and are in the waiting stage. We have so far received the best service. Any time we had questions about paperwork we recieved an e-mail with the answer within 24 hours and never felt like we were an imposition. One thing I really like is they have specific teams to help you through each stage so those people are the experts for that stage. Friends of ours used a different agency and they said one of their biggest complaints was the agency would not help them until after their referral!! Good luck!

Feel free...

Please feel free to PM me regarding GWCA. We just completed our adoption using GWCA and could not have been happier with them!

We are using a different agency but we know someone who did use Great Wall and had great luck with them.

GWCA

We are using GWCA and our dossier is being sent this Friday. Our experience has been wonderful with them. Some of the reasons we chose them was because they do ONLY China adoptions and have been written up in newspapers, news stories and such. When we signed up I did contact more than a few people on the referral list they provide you and have had great reviews from them!

We are also using GWCA, although we are not as far into the process as Kellelita, I too have found them very easy to work with. I have e-mailed them quite a few times with questions, and they always get back to me very quickly and with informative answers. We also chose them because of them dealing exclusively with China, and b/c of all the wonderful things we had heard and read about them. So far, no complaints at all
