Free Debt Consolidation
Author : Vicki Hall
For consumers who are struggling to make monthly payments on unsecured bills, they often look to consolidate those debts and get the total down to a workable monthly figure. It seems like a workable solution, and they read or hear about free debt consolidation, and think they've found the right thing. Unfortunately, it doesn't exist.
It is possible for a consumer to create their own free debt consolidation program, but the way the plan works, it calls for a person to have help. If not from credit counselors, then from accountants and lending institutions in order to obtain a loan to cover the consolidation. And, a consolidation loan is a secured one. That's a second mortgage or an equity loan.
One of the problems today is misleading advertising. There are many companies who claim to be non-profit - or even free of charge - who claim that they're providing free debt consolidation. There are fees even if they are hidden. Often, the non-profit companies, as they refer to themselves, will ask for donations or they will take portions of the monthly payment the consumer is making. It isn't sometimes even known to the consumer that not all of his or her money is being retained as a fee rather than going to creditors. Not only is this deceptive, but it also means that it will take longer to pay off outstanding bills. There is no such thing as free debt consolidation.
While the free debt consolidation offers may be enticing, the logic holds that it costs money for a company to work with creditors, manage money, and implement plans for consumers. Staff and offices are not free nor is the education and experience that consultants need to have. There are no grants that support these businesses, and even ones affiliated with churches or other religious organizations still have rent to pay. There have been many articles on television and in newspapers about the companies who pretend their services are free or non-profit. But, in all cases, the fine print of their contracts with consumers says differently.
A reputable debt relief company will be up front about all of its fees. They will explain precisely how the money is used, what the charges are and what the consumer can expect. It is truly a situation where a person gets what they pay for. It took credit to get into debt, and it is going to take patience and money to get out of it.
