Cookie On My Mind asked:


I have some credit debt left and I’m wondering if I should put the extra money I make from selling my home into the new house I’m purchasing or if I should go ahead and pay off the credit card debt. What is a smarter decision?
Just wanted to say I’m not late on my credit card bills, just wondering if I should go ahead and pay them off in full right away

I’ve heard of companies like cureadebt.com that will settle your credit card debts for 70% of the amount owed. I’ve also heard of government grants to pay unsecured debt(credit cards), but I don’t know where to get the info on them. I’m considering a second mortgage to pay these off with a lower interest rate. Thoughts?

We no longer use credit cards, so the balance only increases because of high interest rates.

if so did it work for you,or any other debt settlement program for that matter, not looking to go bankrupt and in the current bank situations debt consolidations are hard to get.

j asked:


the company is called F.I.R.E i had to pay them to negotiate my debt and try to lower my debt. after being in the month for 5 months i paid them about 800 dollars now i got out the program because it was too expensive and they wont give me my money back because in my contract it says no refunds. Could i do anything to get this money maybe a lawyer?

We are joining a debt settlement program with a law firm I’m wondering if anyone can tell me your experience with Debt settlement and if you know if any creditors will still sue..We have already tried a debt management program, but the payments were still to high so we dropped out.

asked:


I am confused. What is credit card consolidation? What is loan consolidation? What is a debt consolidation loan?

Liberty asked:


I know they are not the best choice. Please don’t tell me how to manage my credit cards. I am beyond that stage. This is the last option for me. I know some of the companies are fradulent and some effect your credit more negatively than others. I just need to know the names of CC Consolidation companies that are legimate and maybe won’t hurt your credit as much as others.
