Credit Card Debt Consolidation Loans
Credit Card Debt Consolidation is not a loan so you don’t have to qualify or put up any of your assets. You can include current or delinquent unsecured accounts into the program. Your interest rates are either eliminated or reduced and that is in most cases. Interest rates will usually range somewhere between 0 to 9.9% once you have joined the program. By having this happen you should get out of debt up to 75% faster than you normally would. This in turn will help you build a better credit rating and score. Once your account is set up, you will make one payment each month and that payment will be distributed each month to the creditors you have included into your program. By joining this type of program you are not defaulting on your debt therefore you can not be sued by your creditors. Default typically happens after 4 to 6 months of non-payment. Be very careful of any company advising you to stop your monthly payments to creditors. Read more at www.debtsettlementscams.com
Most Credit Card Debt Consolidation programs usually last between 3 to 5 years and may be the fastest and most effective method of eliminating unsecured debts without a loan. Creditor payments are consolidated into one affordable monthly payment. The payment amount and payoff period quoted to you on Debt Solutions USA’s free no-obligation quote system is 90% accurate. Keep in mind you can always make a higher monthly payment if you chose to. Making higher payments will help you get out of debt faster than the proposed payoff period quoted. There is no prepayment penalty. The program will end when you are finished paying off your included debt or if you cancel the program.
Participation in Credit Card Debt Consolidation is NOT factored into your FICO® score.
Usual benefits of the program are:
Elimination or reduction of interest rates Reduction of monthly payments Stop collection calls. Proposals will go out to your creditors approximately 10 days after your designated draft date. Elimination late fees and over the limit fees Re-aging of past due accounts to a current status (usually done after making 3 consecutive payments) Re-build your credit and credit rating Consolidate your bills into one easy and affordable monthly payment The management of your debt to ensure the earliest possible payoff Restoring your peace of mind through goal orientated financial management and budgeting analysis. Reduce creditor collection efforts because they are now being paid each month.

What keeps most people in debt is the fact that they keep spending more money than they make. They look at the "monthly payments" instead of the total debt loan that they are carrying. People need to stop spending now and concentrate on becoming debt free. Please do not consolidate or use a debt reduction company . It is not free, they will lower your payments by increasing the length of time until you are debt free, and you will take a hit on your credit score. Or they negotiate your debt down after telling you not to pay for awhile adding another hit to your credit score. Student loans are the only debt that can garnish your wages for non payment without taking you to court first. Just list them out on a piece of paper or a spreadsheet and follow the plan. If you work the plan, the plan will work for you.
A. Have a garage sale and sell anything that you no longer need or want.
B.Get a temporary part time job, if you have one, get another.
Here is a plan that can help you. If you work the plan, the plan will work for you:
1. Make a budget. Make the budget a week before you get paid. A budget is not a punishment! It is a tool which will free you from ever having to worry about money again. Put everything in your budget. Especially those annual, biannual, or quarterly bills like car registration, insurance, etc. Give every dollar you are going to bring home the name of where it is going. Add an "emergency fund" category to your budget for 25 dollars and save up until you have 1000-1250 dollars. Your emergency fund will help keep you from getting into new debt because of an emergency. If you can, set up a direct transfer to a savings account for your emergency fund. That way it moves automatically and you don't even have to worry about it. You must cut your spending and live on less than you make.
2.First get current on all of you debts and make no more late payments. Stop using your credit cards immediately. Do not take on any more debt. Credit cards are like quicksand only the death is much slower. Make a list of all of your debts in order of highest interest rate to lowest interest. Use cash only for your spending from now on.
3.Pay the minimum due on all of your debts and then put your extra money towards paying off the highest interest one first. After you get that one paid off, you put the money you were paying on debt #1 (the minimum payment and the extra payment) towards debt #2. That will pay debt #2 off faster. When that is paid off, you put all three payments towards card #3 and that one will be paid off pretty quickly. As an example:
To start :
Debt #1 (highest interest): minimum payment+ extra payment
Debt #2 (middle interest): minimum payment
Debt #3(lowest interest): minimum payment
Debt #1: paid off
Debt #2: minimum payment from Debt #1+ Minimum payment from Debt #2 +extra payment
Debt #3: minimum payment
Debt #1: paid off
Debt #2: paid off
Debt #3:Minimum payment from card #1+ minimum payment from Debt #2+ minimum payment from Debt #3+ extra payment.
That way, you will get them all paid off, on time, and pay the least interest. It will also help towards rebuilding your credit since you will no longer have any late payments. This works no matter how many different debts you may have.
4. After you get all of your debts paid off, add to your emergency fund until you have 6-12 months of income saved up. Put that emergency fund money into a liquid money market fund or into a Bank of America no-risk CD so that if you need the money you can take it out without penalty.
5a. When you have your emergency fund in place, add a category for "fun" to your budget. Save for a holiday, a vacation, a big screen, or dinners out, whatever goal you want. Remember to enjoy your life.
5b. When you have your emergency fund in place, start saving for your retirement. Join the 401(k) plan at work and contribute the maximum. Your employer probably matches at least part of your contribution so why give up free money? Open a Roth IRA and contribute the maximum on a monthly basis. If you start saving for your retirement now, you will probably retire a millionaire.
5c. When you have your emergency fund in place, start saving for your next car. Only buy cars, or other things that depreciate, with cash. Save up for a nicer car. That way you get the interest instead of paying the interest.
You can do it and it isn't as hard as you think. Just follow the plan

Family meeting folks, need to cut cost, OK how about canceling all insurance policies (frauds anyway) walk away from credit cards (Fico a fraud and slavery). Hey,..it’s just a pragmatic family business decision, Big banks do it all the time so they remain “liquid”. Think I’ll start me a family veggie garden, pop me a cool one and,… Oh well fuck it!

All of them are bad… really. They will do the same things you can do on your own and not have to pay for it. You do not get a loan to pay a loan.
I would call the creditors and try to work out a payment plan. They will work with you if you are diligent. Make sure that every agreement comes on paper from them before you make a payment. Do not allow automatic withdrawals from any account-period, meaning do not give anyone your bank account info or any type of info that will allow for a debit.
More then likely if you do not have assets and the banks will not give you a loan it's not worth doing. The interest rates on a loan from a shark will be out of this world and your debt will cost you lts more in the long run.
Take your extra cash and start paying down the old debt. start with the smallest debts first and work your way through them this way.

I'd say the best credit card debt consolidation loans are here
http://creditcarddebt-consolidation.org/
They have a bunch of companies listed – compare rates and see who offers the best deal. Also banks are good if your credit is great and you have collateral.
June 7th, 2011 at 10:03 am
A bank loan will require some form of collateral, like a house. If you can't pay the loan, you lose the house.
Debt consolidation will trash your credit score.
You are better off negotiating with each credit card. Mention to them that you may have to declare bankruptcy due to the high rate and could they lower the rate. In most cases, they would do that.

Yes it can make a real difference. Check with your bank and/or look at the companies listed at
http://www.creditcarddebt-consolidation.org/
They have some good online choices. Make sure to compare rates and costs carefully.

See what terms you can get from consolidation companies.
http://creditcarddebt-consolidation.org/
is a decent site that lists a few. Or if you have a house or a co-signer, a bank is the best bet.

See http://www.esuperfind.com/lowermybills.phpp?id=hra0tt16koo9 the affiliated site is an Experian company BBB approved so very safe.
They might or they might not have you on. It depends on many factors and how big the debt is.
