Can a person achieve these credit card debt settlements on their own or do they need to hire a debt reduction professional to get out of the credit card debt?

QUOTE (robert @ Nov 2 2010, 02:20 AM)  Can a person achieve these credit card debt settlements on their own or do they need to hire a debt reduction professional to get out of the credit card debt? Believe me, a person can do it on their own. I run Affordable Financial Solutions, LLP (a collection agency). If a person calls me and tells me their circumstances and wants to work something out with a settlement, I'm actually more likely to give them a better settlement than a debt settlement agency calling on their behalf. The only thing I tell these people calling looking for settlements is that I value honesty above all. So if they tell me they don't work, then I investigate them (skiptrace) and they do work, they just lost out on a great settlement. My suggestion is to call the collection agencies that have the accounts and tell them you have a fixed amount of money and are trying to settle as many debts as you can. Also, most collection agencies are more willing to settle closer to the end of the month than the beginning. Hope this helps. -Eric

QUOTE (worldbestloans @ Apr 27 2011, 09:36 PM)  You need credit debt help when you feel like you are in a financial prison. All of a sudden, you can no longer do your normal activities such as go out to eat, pick up a new wardrobe, or even go to a movie without having to worry about increasing your debt or using cash that could have been used to pay down your credit card bills.
Before you can figure out how to get out of credit card debt, you have to understand the reason why you are in your current situation. Most financial planners and consultants tell you that there are major causes why individuals fall behind in paying their bills.
Emergency situations do occur in our lives. If you are currently in debt and an event such as finding out you have cancer, your spouse demanding a divorce, or getting sued complicated the situation. The problem isn't how you spend your money, it is more on where can you get additional funds to finance your monthly bills.
Credit debt help is available to you if you like to extricate yourself from the grips of this problem. The first step is to pay off your high interest credit card debt then stop the blame game and accept responsibility for your own financial life and take control over your credit card debt. Seek for the assistance of experts if you feel that you cannot follow the do it yourself procedures available.
If you carry excessive unsecured debt, your main three options are: 1. A loan. 2. Credit counseling service or 3. Debt elimination. Um.. ok?? Not to toot my own horn, but I like my advice better, lol. This really doesn't answer the persons question. And why would you say a ccs company is better?

You don’t need to hire a debt reduction professional to get out of the credit card debt, there are many companies how provides help on debt management and related services. i think he suggest ccs company because ccs give better advice, but there are thousands of company and they provide their services best as they can. Some companies have better experience and Non Profit credit counseling.

Yes, you may do your own credit card debt settlements. First, you must make an assessment of your debt situation. Try to negotiate with the credit card issuers to lower the interest rate. Look for a consolidation or transfer card in order for you just to handle one account. Figure out the best amount that you can afford to pay each month and negotiate for that amount as your monthly payment. Avoid making big purchases and create a budget for your daily expenses.
