After drawing in their belts for the last few years due to the credit crunch and feeling rather uncertain about their job security, many splashed out on last Christmas more than usual, and their credit cards are at or nearing their credit limit making it become a bit of a debt problem.
Credit cards were what paid for the great Xmas with a new 60 inch flat screen television now in the lounge, computers and computer games for the children a diamond ring for your wife and the luxury week end to Paris for New Year were all bought thanks to credit cards.
When you applied for your first credit card years ago the maximum you could spend on it was 4,000 and the APR was about 14% and that would make your payment 120 each month if you took your card to the limit, and paid the minimum allowed.
A big problem with these cards, and it can lead to debt problems. is that the credit card company frequently will raise the limit on your card without any recourse to yourself, and before you know it your limit can go from 4,000 to 5,000 after six months, until a few years down the line your limit is 12,000
Interest rates seem to rise for no apparent reason untl your rate is no longer 14% but nearer 40%.
Many people in this situation apply for other credit cards to get by and end up using one credit card to pay another and even becoming so riddled with debt problems end up even paying their mortgage with a credit card.

Before debt problems become to deep rooted it is imperative to find debt solutions and the best debt help is by debt consolidation which replaces all credit card debts with one payment each month.
