Debt Consolidation FAQ:
Question: Any one had experience, good or bad, with contacting a Christian Debt Consolidation company?
Credit card debit, college loans and medical bills are at critical levels and am way over my head. Trying to make monthly payments, but that is not enough. Not eating out or wearing new clothes, just not making enough money. Considering turning to a debt consolidation service, but not sure about who would be safe and secure to go through.
Answer: Call your creditors and negotiate a lower payoff amount yourself. You will not likely get the 30-60% that consolidation companies get, but it will likely be much lower than current.
Keep in mind, every dollar you negotiate less than the current debt you owe them, you are essentially stealing from them. You may not feel bad about this, as they make money screwing others, but right is right.
Question: Where can I find a Christian Debt Consolidation company?
Answer: Forget debt consolidation. Manage your money better. Took a Dave Ramsey course thru my church called “Financial Peace University”. The course teaches you to get a grip on your finances and pay down your bills. But the best thing is, it teaches you how to make money work for you. You’ll never look at money the same way again. My wife and I followed the plan to the “T” and were debt free in one year. Now we have savings, investments, and the power of cash.
Question: Is debt consolidation really the best option? How does debt consolidation really work?
Answer: No, don’t do it. You’re not paying off your bills your just moving them around when you do a debt consolidation. What will keep you from going back and recharging up your credit cards again. Cut up your cards and work on paying down your bills as quickly as possible. Take a 2nd job if you have to, but don’t borrow more money to pay off bills!
Question: I want to refinance my home for a debt consolidation new loan. Which are my best options ?
I have about 40 % positive home equity , no late payments , but I only have been owning the house for a couple months. My house is in California and I have a fair to good credit with too many inquiries in the last 6 months.
Answer: It depends on how you have this equity. Did you put 40% of your own money down? If not, because you only have owned the property for a couple of months, the “real” value of your home would be the appraised value or the purchase price whichever is “less” for the first 12 months of ownership.
In other words, if you purchased your home for $100,000, but it appraised for $140,000. You are correct that you have 40% equity, but the value of your home is only $100,000 for the first 12 months.
Question: How can I get a debt consolidation loan in Rep. Of Ireland with bad credit history?
Want to wipe the slate clean but having trouble getting loan. Not a homeowner.
Answer: Don’t even start on that course of action as you will be in debt for ever and a day.
Go to your local Citizens Advice Bureau and they will help you with sound advice to clear your debts.
A consolidation loan does not wipe the slate clean it makes the slate more full and costly.
Best of luck and do take expert advice before you take out any loan.
Question: Using a Capital One loan for Debt Consolidation?
I just recieved a letter in the mail saying that I’m eligible for a loan of 5k, 10k, and 15k through Capital One. The 10k loan for 36 months would be a little higher of a payment that I’m paying now for all my credit cards but the 36 month one would be slightly less. I didn’t know if this would be better to get in a way to “hide” my credit card debt in the form of a loan? And in a way that I wouldn’t have 3 credit cards against me, just one loan.
Answer: I would recommend using this Installment loan from Capital One to consolidate your debts only if the interest rate is lower than what you are paying on your credit cards.
Installment loans often come with lower rates, and depending on the term can also be easier to meet the minimum payment.
The last question you should ask yourself, will you be able keep yourself from using the new open credit limits on your other cards and digger yourself deeper into debt.
If the answer to those two questions are yes, then I would recommend getting it. It will improve your credit score, you will pay less overall in interest, and you will be able to meet your monthly payments easier.
Capital One is a major credit issuer and doesn’t use hidden fees, just check the Schumer box for all information related to the loan, that is where they are legally require to disclose all fees, and charges related to the loan.
Question: I am $50K in credit card debt, what are my options in terms of debt consolidation?
I own my home, but do not have enough equity built to refinance and get $50K to pay off credit card debt-what are my options? Someone told me a second mortgage may work, but I have only owned my home for 14 months. Balance on my current mortgage is $77K, home value is max $90K.
Answer: You can’t borrow your way out of debt. Try and locate a lower interest credit card and transfer your balance. Some accounts have 0 transfer fees and maybe 0 interest or low introductory interest for the first few months. If you have that little grace period you need to pay as much as you possibly can right away and lower that principal amount. Scrimp and save, cut coupons, brown bag your lunch, get a roommate, whatever it takes to start paying down that debt. That is a huge amount of money if you are paying 18%–your interest alone is probably a couple of hundred every month and if you are only paying the minimum you aren’t making a dent in the actual debt.
Question: Will someone tell me a good debt consolidation company?
I need to consolidate some unsecured debt. Will someone with personal experience with a consolidator give me their website so that I can research it.
Answer: Try going local first. There are usually places called “Consumer Credit Counseling” that are free to very low fee in your area that are best suited for this.
