Debt consolidation really works?  Reply with quote  

it says on this article on debt consolidation that "According to the Federal Reserve Board, debt in American households has reached the $2 trillion mark, excluding mortgage debt."

does debt consolidation really help these people get out of debt? or is it just another scam?

yea, but its just basically like organizing your debt. It dosent solve the debt. Debt setlement is a better route and its only a scam if the people you are working with are scam artist. Find a company back by many many attorneys

I don't mean to revive zombie threads but since someone else posted here I would like to clarify... Couldn't you do debt consolidation by yourself? I mean, if you put all debts into one manageable debt isn't that consolidation? I just wanted to clarify because I wrote an article related to this in the past and was wondering if I gave people the right information...

No, Debt consolidation really works. A debt consolidation loan is a loan which joins together several loans under one payment. In practice, people look to consolidate high interest unsecured loans like credit cards, with a lower, ready interest collateral-based loan. Lowering the interest is of interest as this is the principal aspiration with this kind of loan.

In case if you have decided to hire a settlement firm for your debt relief plans, that solves the whole problem. You are not required to do anything except providing them with all the necessary information related to your financial situation. It is advised to give them a true picture as they are instrumental in developing a settlement plan best suited to your need. Maintain a cordial relationship with them as they are going to submit proposal, negotiate and finalize the settlement deal on your behalf. Take all possible help to select a genuine company to hire.
