What is the benefit of using debt consolidation for credit card debt? I am trying to decide to either call the credit card companies myself and negotiate for a lower payoff/settlement amount, or to use a debt consolidation company? If I negotiate with the credit cards directly, will that be considered a charge off? I would want to settle myself if I can to avoid paying all the months of high interest. But if I use debt consolidation, then they will charge me a fee every month for so many years? What is their purpose? What would be the best route to go financially?

You have to make sure you have a reputable debt consolidation company. There are many out there that are not. I know that Consumer Credit Counseling is good because NCUA backs them and I have to work with them to coordinate classes for our members. The thing about debt consolidation companies is that sometimes they can get a better payment plan or rate because they have deal in place with the cc companies. Also, the credit card companies feel better because they know you are working with someone to actually pay down your debt.

You could also look into a consolidation loan through a credit union or bank. You have to look around and make sure you are getting a decent interest rate.

I think that you can get free consultations with the debt consolidation companies. This should tell you what the costs/fees would be. You can always try the calling the credit card companies first to work out a deal.

Good Luck!

Where do I look on the internet to find the best debt consolidation loans? What are the best sites to look?

First, learn to tell the spammers apart, then choose the best out of the good sites.
The crooks sites do not have a working VERISIGN logo and are NOT BBB approved.
If you don’t know what I am talking about then go to http://www.bbb.org/ and http://www.verisign.com/c/index.html and read.

Last but not least, this is a *good* site http://www.debtreliefprogram.esuperfind.com?id=hra0tt16koo9 it is
affiliated with Experian themselves.

I’ll probably get reported by the spammers for this but hey I don’t care and I hope you get to read it.

Is debt consolidation the right way to go?

I owe $11,000 to credit cards. I am wondering if this amount is worth doing a debt consolidation for? Any suggestions?

Depends upon your interest rate/your credit and your income.

If your interest rate is high and your credit stinks, then yes it makes sense. If not, it doesn’t because your credit takes a hit when you go to these people.

Can you afford the payments now? If your credit is good, then work on the highest interest rate balance first with any extra money. Also you can try to negotiate a lower rate and possibly do balance transfers to low interest rate cards.
