debt consolidation
zarayray10 asked:


i am interested in having my monthly credit card payments put into one payment per month. i was very close to trying this but backed out at the last minute out of fear of being screwed over by a debt consolidation company. can someone explain how these companies work? has anyone ever used one? is it helpful?
do u pay the debt consolidation company a seperate fee? or do they include that within ur consolidated payment?

honhill asked:


Due to a family tragedy, my husband and I are currently in $26,000 of credit card debt. All of the payments are current and the cards are paid on time with the accounts still open (we are not still charging, though). We are looking to seriously pay this down before the interest eats us alive. My husband wants to take out a bank loan and pay the cards off that way, but I am wondering about the debt consolidation programs you hear about (I know some of those are scams and some are real). Any advice or experience?

I have a few credit card that are past due and I’m not able to make the payments.

What is the best debt consolidation company to use?

Keep in mind, I’m not a home owner.
I’m not a student and actually I’m looking for a better answer than the obvious budget and make more money.
