So Can Debt Relief Help Me?

If you are facing debt problems you are not alone. Across the USA and internationally, millions of people are finding it more and more difficult to cope as the present financial crisis continues to develop.

For many their debts keep increasing as they borrow more to cover the repayments and interest on their initial borrowings. Many feel like they’re heading along the road to bankruptcy or increasing stress with no way to turn off. However, thankfully if you find yourself in this situation you do have options available to you.

Debt Relief Programs exist that can arrange negotiation, settlement or consolidation of your existing debts.

Companies who specialize in this area can negotiate with your creditors (e.g. Banks, Credit Card Companies, Mortgage Companies etc) to reduce the total amount you owe (sometimes by up to 70%), reduce the interest rates you are paying. They can organize re-payment breaks and modify re-payment schedules or they can consolidate your debts so you have fewer payments, for example to consolidate credit card debt. Simply put, they offer a complete consumer debt solution.

Whilst this sounds fantastic and can transform lives or save businesses, there is a problem. Only the best, most reputable companies will be able to do this for you. In fact, I receive mail from my subscribers every week telling me how their problems have got much worse after using bad debt relief and bad debt consolidation companies.

Unfortunately most people needing consumer debt management, consolidation and debt relief services are in desperate situations and many companies take advantage of this with what are just scams.

These debt consolidators can do this in several ways including some of the following:

  • Promising precise payments and total payoffs in 1 or 2 years. This is just not possible, you can’t predict the future. When interest rates change or banks merge the policies and settlements must also change.
  • By suggesting credibility by listing an affiliation with Dunn and Bradstreet or a Chamber of Commerce that any company can get. To prove real reliability a company should be listed with the Better Business Bureau (BBB) and have a good track record with them.
  • By initially promising wonderful future results, but when you receive the contract there is no promise or guarantee of these results.
  • By charging you a flat commission based on the size of your debts. No company should do this. You should only ever be charged a percentage of the amount you save.

  • By actually suggesting you sign up to loans for debt consolidation that will end up making you pay back your debts in full with interest!
  • By telling you that debt consolidation won’t appear on your credit report. It will and will end up affecting you much more than debt settlement.
  • By being happy to get you started and collect their commissions, then not hear from them again which can get you deeper into debt because nobody is monitoring your accounts.

Because of this situation and as industry watchdogs, my team and I have undertaken a thorough review of the debt settlement, debt consolidation, and consumer credit counselling industry.

We’ve worked to evaluate each company in the industry by talking to past clients, checking their credentials, and speaking with their workers. Out of the hundreds that we have evaluated we have formed a list of companies we feel comfortable to recommend that we know provide high quality debt settlement and negotiation services.

You will find the reviews of our recommendations below. Each recommended company offers a free, no obligation consultation.

If you have credit card, personal loans or any type of small business debts they offer an excellent chance of finding a solution to your problems.

“Still The Best Debt Relief Company In 2010″

CuraDebt have been helping people out of debt since 1996, and were formed to provide debt management and debt negotiation plans and to help people and businesses avoid bankruptcy.

Depending on the financial and debt circumstances involved Curadebt provides the option of a debt management, debt settlement or debt negotiation plan.

Curadebt specializes in helping people with over $10,000 in total debts.

Curadebt are accredited by the BBB (Better Business Bureau) and have been since November 2001 with an A+ rating (the highest available). They currently have over 10,000 clients.

So what can Curadebt do for you?

  • Curadebt offer a free initial consultation where you can discuss your situation and find out whether the services Curadebt offer can potentially help you. It’s very simple to organize by filling out a few details on their WebSite such as your name, phone number and current debt level. The initial consultation is of course obligation free.
  • The team then handles your creditors and deals with your financial and legal arrangements. Due to their experience, knowledge and relationships with creditors, law firms and collection agencies they can negotiate lump sum settlements or much improved payment plans.
  • Fees to Curadebt are based on successful negotiation results only. That means that any fee is only ever based on a percentage of the amount of money they can save you.

Also because they are negotiating on behalf of all their clients together it means the amounts they are negotiating are much higher than for just one individual.

For example, if they are negotiating with a card company on behalf of 10 clients each with $20,000 debts they are negotiating on a total of $200,000, not just $20,000 as they would for an individual. This gives them much greater leverage to negotiate in your favor.
