Debt Consolidation
If you are struggling with high interest rates or you are having consistent
problems paying your debts on time and see yourself falling deeper in
debt with each passing month, you may be a candidate for debt consolidation.
What is Debt Consolidation?
Debt Consolidation means that you hire a professional company to consolidate
ALL your monthly bills into one single monthly payment so that you have
a new lower interest rate. The debt consolidator is in contact with your
creditors, so you may no longer receive collection phone calls. If you
are delinquent on your payments, the creditors will usually bring your
accounts back to a current status through this program.
What will Debt Consolidation Cost?
Debt consolidators are paid for their services in two ways. They will
usually collect a monthly fee from you and they also can receive a fee
from the creditors.
Why would a creditor (the credit card company) be willing to lower
your rate and ease your payment terms?
Creditors are often willing to pay debt consolidators because they
know that debtors who use debt consolidators have a lower rate of bankruptcy
than those who don't. Creditors are often willing to set easier terms
for individuals in debt trouble because they don't want them to declare
bankruptcy. Once that happens the creditors lose everything. If you are
in debt trouble, the advantages of having a lower payment rate and only
a single bill to pay will help you maintain on-time, consistent payments
and may help improve your overall credit rating.
