Please provide the details; your question is too general.

lynda,
You should look into credit counseling. They help you get out of debt fast by providing you services tailored to your needs. They have deals with pretty much every bank, and can get your low % interest so that the money you are paying is going toward your debt, not to interest.

Hey Lynda thanks for your question. I think debt consolidation may be a good thing in your case. Interest rates can really pile up fast. Go seek some credit counseling to bring it down. I was 8,000 in debt and got it down to 5,000 with the right help. Good luck! Make sure you jump on this now so you don't hurt your credit score.
Best,
Pat

Well i say many people have misconceptions about debt consolidation. They think credit card debt consolidation or dept relief is the solution to their financial troubles, but it is not a magic cure. Financial recovery is long, difficult and often treacherous.
The concept behind credit card debt consolidation is to put several debts into one account. Instead of making multiple payments each month, you make a single payment. The amount of debt may stay the same and the term of the loan may be longer.
Bottom line is that its up to you how you can manage this problem

There are pluses and minuses to it. It can be a great way to pay off multiple debts, but only if you already have a majority of the funds and a clear repayment plan in place.
The dark side to debt consolidation is it takes much longer to pay than if the debts were separate, especially if you tie the debt to your mortgage, which most people do.
Hope this helps!

Debt consolidation is important. Here are some benefits of it:
-Rate reduction: You can reduce the interest rate on your bills and debts through negotiation with creditors.
-Debt repayment plan: You'll get a debt repayment plan from your creditors or collection agencies.
-Single monthly payment: Consolidation program requires you to make a single monthly payment towards your bills and debts.

It ay be a good idea for some people, but, should you choose to go this route, go with a non-profit debt counseling service that does not extract huge fees for their services.
Many of the offers you hear that offer to reduce you payments and debt by 60% are scams. The companies claim to have made arrangements with the companies you owe money to, and then tell you to stop paying them.

I would start with some credit counseling service to determine how bad your situation might be. If consolidation techniques are needed then proceed.

Although debt consolidation can make your payments more manageable as you only get to pay a single creditor and at a lower interest rate, the loan will be secured against your house or car. You have to make sure you can fully commit to meeting the payments as you could risk losing your property for collateral.
