Author : J.J. Yong


         


As a responsible borrower, the moment you feel that you have lost your ability to pay back your debt, you are advised to contact your lenders or your creditors immediately. Not all creditors are cruel and cool blooded. During economy crisis, most of them are willing to work with their debtors if their debtors have valid reasons for having difficulty in making payments on time.

Here are some useful tips you can use when you are negotiating with your creditors to reduce your financial burden.

# Tip 1:

Request politely to your creditors to see whether they would consider removing late fees and over-the-limit fees if you are able to pay off your outstanding balances within a certain period of time. If possible, give your creditors a specific date that you are able to make repayment if they agree to remove the fees as request.

# Tip 2:

Interest rate is indeed a financial burden to many people. You are suggested to ask your lenders if they can assist in reducing your current interest rate so that you can manage your debt in an easier manner. In general, for people who have good payment history stand a higher chance to get the approval from their creditors to enjoy lower interest.

# Tip 3:

If you are currently having unsecured debt, you are recommended to offer a reasonable settlement amount to your creditors. Normally, creditors are willing to accept a lump sum payment. If you don't have enough cash, ask your creditors whether you are allowed to make a series of payment to clear off your debt.

Last but not the least; you need to bear in mind that working with your creditors does not hurt you at all. You will be able to reduce your debt faster and at the same time, you can avoid yourself from filing bankruptcy.
