For most financial institutions, you qualify for emergency debt relief if you owe more than $10,000 (US). Owing five figures is definitely a cause for alarm, but it's not hopeless. Many financial services offer emergency debt relief; not just a Jackson, Florida company called Emergency Debt Relief, Inc. which lost a customer fraud lawsuit recently.
It Doesn't Come Right Away
Emergency debt relief does not mean that you fill out a form or make one phone call and ZAP your bills are paid off. It's not that simple, but the end goal of getting your debts paid off is still the same. First of all, you need to get all your bills together in order for an emergency debt relief service to help you. You need to find out:
exactly how much you owe to who
exactly how much you make or how much you are worth in annual salary, stocks and property
exactly what your annual bills are (including you monthly bills)
This takes time to gather, but in doing so you will get set on the road to emergency debt relief. You will also know exactly how much money is available to you.
A Good Service
As you've probably determined, not allfinancial services offering emergency debt relief are legal or helpful. There are some things common to fraudsters that you need to be on the lookout for. Fraudsters will offer you a consolidation loan without taking a good look at your current finances. Fraudsters will ask you to falsify information. Fraudsters will also offer no money management courses to you. If you know they are non-profit debt management services, they should not ask you for donations.
A good service that offers emergency debt relief will take a two-pronged approach to help you out of your quandary. First off, they will get you into money management courses or classes so you can stay out of debt. They also will take time going over your current financial situation. They will give you several contact numbers and outline a long plan of attack.
Usually, they will pay off what you owe and then you pay off your debt to them. You won't have to pay the sky-high interest rates that credit cards or bank loans often charge. They will also contactcollection agenciesto let them know that you have hired their services with the intention of paying off their debt.
