Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is debt consolidation?
A: Debt consolidation is a process through which your creditors are contacted by a debt consolidation company to get you better balances and better interest rates. Then your debts are combined into one, and instead of making multiple payments to your creditors each month, you only make one monthly payment to the debt consolidation company. This single payment will cost less than the sum total of your prior multiple payments.
Q. How does debt consolidation affect my credit score?
A. Enrolling in a debt consolidation program does not raise or better your score. Having delinquent balances will better your credit score. Filing for bankruptcy protection destroys your score. But with a debt consolidation program, after you have made timely payments for just the first three to six months, some of your creditors will report your accounts as current.
Q: What are your fees?
A: There's no fee to complete our online form, but once you enroll in a debt consolidation program, you pay an initial deposit and a low monthly fee. The deposit is returned when you have successfully completed your program, and since we're a non-profit company, your monthly fee is nominal.
