DEBT CONSOLIDATION PROCESS

Finding Non Profit Credit Counseling Relief is as Easy as 1-2-3

1. Call A Credit Counselor

Our experienced non profit credit counselors will work with you to take a closer look at your various unsecured debts, such as credit cards, medical bills, and personal loans. This allows us to help you prioritize where your money should go in order to pay off your debts more efficiently. By taking an in-depth look at your debts, we can create a customized plan that is tailored to your unique financial situation. Our goal is to help you achieve a debt-free future by providing you with the tools and resources you need to take control of your finances. Whether you need help negotiating with creditors, consolidating your debts, or simply creating a budget, our non profit credit counselors are here to guide you every step of the way

2. We Deal With Your Creditors

At CreditGUARD, we understand that dealing with creditors can be stressful and time-consuming. That's why we offer a comprehensive non profit debt management service that includes contacting your creditors on your behalf. After our credit counselors have assessed your financial situation and determined your most pressing debts, we will work to negotiate with your creditors to help reduce your outstanding interest rates and lower your monthly payments. Our experienced team has a wealth of knowledge when it comes to negotiating with creditors, and we have established relationships with many of the major credit card companies and lenders. By leveraging these relationships, we are often able to secure more favorable terms for our clients. In fact, we have a track record of success when it comes to reducing interest rates and lowering monthly payments by up to 50 percent.

3. You Make One Monthly Payment

Once we have negotiated with your creditors and established more favorable terms for your debts, we will consolidate your various debts into a single payment that you make each month. Consolidating your debts in this way can help simplify your financial life and make it easier for you to stay on top of your payments. Rather than juggling multiple due dates and payment amounts, you'll only need to make one payment each month, which can help you to avoid missed or late payments that can negatively impact your credit score. Our goal is to help you achieve financial stability and freedom by providing you with the tools and resources you need to take control of your debts. Our non profit debt consolidation service can help you to reduce your overall debt burden, lower your interest rates, and potentially improve your credit score over time.

Yes, CreditGUARD of America is a legitimate nonprofit credit counseling agency that is accredited by FCAA – Financial Counseling Association Of America.

While having a reliable source of income is typically a requirement for most lenders or debt consolidation companies, there are alternative options available. These alternatives may include debt settlement, balance transfer promotions, or bankruptcy. Ultimately, the best solution will depend on your individual financial situation, credit score, and income streams.

While it’s not possible to guarantee that everyone will be approved for debt consolidation, there’s good news – many people are eligible for this type of loan! The process for getting approved depends on various factors, such as your credit score, income, debt-to-income ratio, and other financial considerations.

“Is debt consolidation harmful to your credit score? Debt consolidation loans may have a temporary negative impact on your credit score. This is because lenders will perform a credit check when you apply for a loan, which can result in a hard inquiry on your credit report. While hard inquiries may cause your credit score to drop by a few points, the impact is usually small and temporary. It’s important to note that debt consolidation, if done responsibly, can actually improve your credit score over time by helping you pay off your debts on time and in full.”

Credit counseling typically involves a one-on-one session with a certified credit counselor who will review your financial situation, assess your debt, and provide advice on how to improve your credit.

A debt management program (DMP) is a service provided by credit counseling agencies that helps consumers pay off their debts through a structured payment plan. The agency negotiates with your creditors to lower your interest rates and monthly payments.

Creditors may still contact you initially, but once they have agreed to the terms of your DMP, they should stop contacting you directly.

If you miss a payment on your DMP, it could jeopardize the agreement you have with your creditors and result in the cancellation of the program.

  1. During the initial credit counseling session, which can be done over the phone, you can expect it to take around 30 minutes to an hour. However, if you have a busy schedule, it can be split into multiple sessions.

In order to be eligible for a debt consolidation loan, you’ll need to meet the minimum requirements set by the lender. Typically, this involves having a credit score in the mid-600 range, although some lenders who specialize in bad credit loans may accept scores as low as 580. Some banks provide free tools to help you check and monitor your credit score, which can be useful in determining whether you meet the eligibility criteria for a debt consolidation loan.
