A plan for dealing with credit card debt.
One of our most recommended strategies for dealing with credit card debt is a debt management plan. After working with you to set a budget that you can live with while you pay down your credit card debt, we’ll consolidate all of your debt payments into one monthly payment to ACCC — we’ll be responsible for making individual payments to all of your creditors. This simplified approach to dealing with credit card debt makes it much easier to stay current with your payments and takes a lot of stress out of owing money. We’ll also contact all of your credit card companies to seek reductions in the interest rates they’re charging you, as well as reductions in finance charges, late fees, and over-limit fees. These reductions lower the total amount you owe and make it easier to pay off your credit card debt more quickly. Whenever a client wants to know how to pay off credit cards fast, this is the approach we recommend, as most of our clients are able to pay off their credit card debt in five years or less.
