Don't be fooled ...
Do you have any of these creditor's accounts:
Citibank, Discover or Bank of America? (Are you sure?)
Updated in March 2012: Both Target and Kohl have become aggressive. Your plan must consider the possibility of higher costs and successful litigation. Only work with a professional law firm that has a lawyer in your state and pass the following test on your behalf...
Buyer Note:
If you receive a quote from anyone who does not ask who your creditor is, you Run better!
There have been so many people in financial difficulties lately that many unscrupulous, untrained or ignorant people are jumping on debt settlement...unfortunately, this may give you Bring a lot of trouble!
Did you know that Citibank, Discover and Bank of America are more likely to file a lawsuit if you make a wrong plan within 24-30 months. Or, in some cases, even if it is longer than 12 months?
It all depends on how much debt you have with "positive creditors" like Citibank, Discover and Bank of America.
* AT&T Universal (Citibank)
* Most fuel cards (Exxon, BP, Citra, Chevron ... all Citibank)
* Sears (Citibank)
* Sometimes Lowes & Sams (discovered )
* FIA (Bank of America)
* There are many more common names and everything is fine, but I don't know how to tick the time bomb in your financial plan.
In fact, if you have too much debt to Citibank, Discover or Bank of America, debt settlement may not be for you at all!
Updated in March 2012: Citibank has recently become easier to deal with, resolve much less accounts, and take legal action. In fact, many creditors are softening. I believe this is due to the economy. Creditors want something, not nothing. This is good news for you!
These difficult economic times are indeed the best time to get rid of your debt as little as possible! A friend of mine recently had a personal credit card debt of 75,000 U.S. dollars and U.S. bank settlement only 10% (7,500.00 U.S. dollars).
If you are affected by the economy and are struggling for serious debt, use it now.
What if you participate in one of these debt clearing plans but are not responsible for these "positive creditors" (as most debt clearing companies do today)?
If you come across one of the many clients I try to help after quitting one of many bad debt clearing procedures like this one, then you will only be stripped and left, and deal with dirty credits on your own.
You have to be a project destined to fail from the beginning one or two years, a lot of debt (due to the increase in balance due to the accumulation of interest and expenses), "a lot of money" does not have a lot of money to liquidate an unresolved debt The company pays the fees, there is a long list of complaints... and your account may not be affordable for a legitimate debit-clearing company. At this point, it usually takes a large amount of total loans, about 65% of the total debt, to avoid bankruptcy or worse...
Please note that most debt clearing companies have "smoke and mirror" attempts Get closer to these days.
In the past few years, thousands of debt clearing companies have jumped. Most of them came from failed subprime mortgage companies. The large number of non-performing loans behind them helped our economy into our predicament.
The "three rules" ... to do this, "Four new rules" to avoid costly debt liquidation errors:
Rule #1. Get quotes only from debt clearing companies that need to state.
Please be aware that high-pressure salespeople or bachelors are trying to sell products to you at the lowest monthly sales price, even ignoring your specific situation. Avoid any company or sales person trying to register your program, but do not cover all the content included in the TASC standard disclosure.
Rule #2. Only work with a debt clearing company that has operated for more than 5 years.
If 90% of companies fail in the first five years, why would you believe your future with an unconfirmed startup? A company that is less than five years from the start-up date listed in the startup or BBB report. Choose a company with a proven track record.
Rule #3. Work only with companies that have a clean BBB reliability report.
Stay away from the company to provide long-term complaints ... especially "unresolved" complaints. This is a positive signal that they are over-committed and have little effect, and may allow their clients to be sued unnecessarily. You need a company and a consultant who will come to your office through your plan to see if you take care of and successfully complete your debt repayments.
Bottom line: Knowing what BBB means is a "satisfactory record"* and asking you to get it from any company that you believe trusts your financial future.
Updated in March 2012: As mentioned above, due to many unscrupulous operators in the industry, the BBB has cancelled the membership of many debt clearing companies in most parts of the country. Here are some bad apples that damaged barrels. Few regions in the country still allow membership. In addition, even without a history of consumer complaints or problems, BBB has also issued a "D" rating to companies that are mere debt settlement industries.
There are currently no BBB approved standards to distinguish between good companies and bad times, except for the length of time and the number of complaints.
* The credibility of the BBB has been extensively reviewed. The BBB is not a governmental organization but a private entity that has a significant impact on consumer purchasing decisions but becomes unfair and corrupt in its own business transactions.
For example, FreedomDebt.com did not become a certified member of the BBB until the summer of 2008, when the company's membership was cancelled due to the company's associated Texas industry. BBB guarantees that this has nothing to do with the company, its performance or its services to customers. FreedomDebt.com (Debt Freedom) provides services to thousands of customers nationwide, and has maintained a good reputation and trust with customers since 2002, and regularly invites them back to news programs and talk shows. Excellent performance record with BBB (Only two complaints have been resolved in the company's eight-year history).
Rule #4. Only work with debt repayment law firms of licensed lawyers other than non-lawyers.
This is because lawyers are governed by BAR associations, not FTCs like non-lawyer companies. The pending FTC regulation poses a threat to all companies that are not law firms, and the bar association-regulated law firms are not subject to this future regulation. For this reason, you should only consider working with legal debt liquidation law firm to avoid future regulatory impacts on your financial future.
In 2009, the Federal Trade Commission began cracking down on the debt-clearing industry. This is because many unscrupulous rush-and-bust companies have emerged in recent years. They use consumers to obtain rapid profits.
In addition, acting your attorney has a great advantage in dealing with creditor calls or potential litigation, far beyond the non-law firm's company. With a first-class debt repayment law firm, you usually get better results, lower settlements and more savings.
Don't get wrong, debt settlement *may* be your best choice (far) if you face financial distress...
...but *only* if it "is a quality plan that suits you It applies to your specific situation and is provided by the reputable debt clearing company's small hand representative.
I have been working in the debt clearing industry for more than a decade, working with most of the major participants and looking bad Thousands of companies come and go, and I have already seen the need for debt liquidation firsthand.
My experience not only motivated me to write this article, but also prompted me to develop in the past decade and Create a financial education program to help people like you make your best choices and avoid these costly mistakes.
