DALLAS--()--In a new customer video success story, Aaron R. of Orlando, FL says getting laid off from work and struggling with debt prompted him to enter Credit Solutions’ debt settlement program. After going through the program, he’s debt-free.
“I feel a lot better…a lot of weight off my shoulders, and I got my credit score back up where it needs to be…a 680 and still going up from here.”
“I was let go, and I still had a bunch of debt as far as credit cards and automobiles which I still had in my name,” Aaron says. “I couldn’t just tell them, ‘Hey, I lost my job’ and get out of it. It kind of kept piling up and piling up on me.”
His credit score bottomed out at 490.
Credit Solutions helped Aaron become debt-free, settling his $12,700 of debt for $3,600, at a 28% average percentage of the actual balance, and saving him $9,100.
Credit Solutions uses its experience and leverage on behalf of consumers, negotiating directly with creditors to facilitate repayment of consumer debts at a reduced percentage of the total amount owed. Upon completing the 12- to 36-month settlement program, all of the consumer client’s debts included in the program are “settled,” or resolved with zero balances.
Perhaps the greatest benefit of settlement is it gives consumers overwhelmed with debt a chance to avoid bankruptcy and, in effect, start over by practicing long-term saving habits.
“When I settled my first account, it was a big sigh of relief,” Aaron says. “I knew the process was rolling and I was on my way to getting out of debt.”
Now that he’s completed the program, “I feel a lot better…a lot of weight off my shoulders, and I got my credit score back up where it needs to be…a 680 and still going up from here.
“It’s a great program,” Aaron adds. “I’d recommend it to anyone who’s in the same situation.”
