Credit Counseling If you are not a good negotiator, a credit counseling service is able to conduct the negotiations for you and provide additional guidance as part of a debt management program. You send a single payment each month to that organization, which then pays all of your creditors on your behalf.
In addition to establishing a structured payment plan based on your debt, a
credit counseling agency may also be able to negotiate benefits for you, like lowered interest rates and waived late and over-the-limit fees. They can also respond to collection calls on your behalf, saving your from harassment.
Bankruptcy
Bankruptcy should only be you very last resort solution when you really can't find other solutions.
Bankruptcy has many undesirable consequences that will follow you for many years, it will remain on your credit report for 10 years; almost no lender will even consider you as a borrower for at least 2 years.
Although bankruptcy may fix your short-term problems, because it stays on your credit report for so long it should only be used in extreme situations. Many people who file bankruptcy make the mistake of doing so without fully exploring their options, and never realize they have other, more viable choices that will allow them to preserve their credit standing.
Summary
Bottom line: Know that you have options for
getting out of debt, and explore them fully. The key is finding the right solution for you.
