Steps to Choose a Debt Settlement Company


Introduction ď‚— As consumer debt continues to spiral out of control, debt relief is

becoming a major concern for many of us. Although getting into debt is quite easy, getting out of debt will be hard and long, for all concerned. Unfortunately, in today's unstable economic conditions, many of us are using credit cards just to survive and to extend income.


How to Choose a Debt Settlement Company  Find out if the company is accredited by USOBA or    

possibly TASC Investigate the cost Find out if they have debt negotiators Check your local Chamber of Commerce Contact the BBB


Find Out The Company ď‚— Is the debt settlement company you are considering accredited by

United States Organizations for Bankruptcy Alternative - A Debt Negotiation Association (USOBA)or The Association of Settlement Companies (TASC)? USOBA and TASC accreditation reduces the risk to consumers and gives overall confidence for consumers, because the member company has been independently evaluated by a third party for its competence and performance capabilities.


Investigate The Cost  How much money will this process cost you? When considering

a debt settlement company make sure that their program is affordable for you and your monthly budget. Don’t fool yourself if you can’t afford the program and sign up for it anyway, this is just escalating your debt problems further.


Debt Negotiators ď‚— Does the debt settlement company that you are considering,

belong to the local Chamber of Commerce? If so, is the Chamber an accredited member of the Chamber of Commerce of the Unites States? This type of affiliation will help ensure that the company is conducting business in a proper manner for the consumer.


Check Your Local Chamber of Commerce ď‚— Does the debt settlement company that you are considering,

belong to the local Chamber of Commerce? If so, is the Chamber an accredited member of the Chamber of Commerce of the Unites States? This type of affiliation will help ensure that the company is conducting business in a proper manner for the consumer.


Contact the BBB ď‚— Is the debt settlement company a member of the Better Business

Bureau? Debt settlement companies are not recognized by the BBB, so that doesn’t really mater. In some states the BBB has not allowed debt settlement companies to join the BBB because the BBB has a rating scale that has altered the rating of debt settlement companies between a grade of D or F, just because of their industry.
