Has anyone recently use debt consolidation?


Posted: Jun 28, 2011

Just wondering which company to go with? Has anyone used a debt consolidation company recently? I wanted to consolidate my debt, but could not get a personal loan to do so. I dont have a huge gigantic amount of debt, but I do have enough that I could use the help since my MT job keeps getting smaller and smaller! Any info on a good company to use would be greatly appreciated!!

don't use any that are advertised on television or radio - emma

go to your local YWCA and ask about their debt management classes or for a referral to a reputable agency. The YWCA put me on a strict budget and helped me contact by credit card companies to work out a payment arrangement and save my credit. Those places on television are for declaring bankruptcy and "disguise" themselves as debt consolidation expects and you're credit will be ruined.

Our local community college also has programs that are free.

I Actually Met A Birther In Person RecentlyApr 01, 2011
When he started in with the bellering that they do, everyone else in the room was trying to keep straight faces. We just sat there and, as he went on and on and on, we just looked at each other. Then of course we all avoided him, but we didn't 'engage' him in conversation.  After his tirade, he just sat there with a mad look on his face until it was time to leave. It's great to have this as a place where we don't have to keep a straight face. Love it! ...

Uncomfortable With DebtAug 09, 2011
Does Debt Make You Uncomfortable? After years of being in debt where 90% was not even yours, you feel so much better being debt free. Then something comes up where you have to be in debt again with 80% having nothing to do with you with worry of where that could end up. Really not a fan of debt, I rather use funds that exist, however when something medical comes up there is only so much that can be done, even being needed ones does not have to be comfortable with it. ...

This is ridiculous.  Debt Ceiling:  Should the United States of America pay its debts as it agreed to or should they default?  Are you kidding me?  Should the USA become a deadbeat country?  Really?  Each month when I receive my credit card statement, my utility bills, my car loan statement, I don't ask my husband:  Should we pay these?  We incurred the debt.  We are OBLIGATED.  We are already driving the car.  We have alread ...

We divorced 5 yrs. ago, a 72 month car loan that he drove and kept was/is in my name only, as he had bad credit. He recently defaulted on the loan, they can't find the car, holding me responsible. (We are both on the car title).  And yes I did sign for the loan, will not do any good to get a court ordering him to refinance as he will ignore it, he has nothing to lose and he can't get a loan anyway. He has a criminal history is facing more charges this month, might end up back in p ...

$14T and growing at a rate of $4 billion a day! Isn't that just ducky! The government borrows 41 cents for every dollar it spends and we, the people,  every man, woman, and child, equals $45,300. I'm so glad my 3-yo grandson will have a good life. Has the TARP money been applied to this debt? I didn't see anything in any article on that. What to do? Raising the debt ceiling will keep us "solvent" for a little while, but what happens when that limit is reached? Will they rais ...
