Settlement Firms
Before deciding a settlement firm for your
debt related problems consider these points carefully.
-
Be an informed consumer
-
Find out whether the debt settlement
company you are considering accredited by The Association of Settlement
Companies (TASC)?
-
How much does the service cost? Most people
don't realize that Debt Settlement is the quickest and least expensive form of
debt relief outside of bankruptcy.
-
Does the company offer any type of
service guarantee? If so, what is the guarantee? If a company can not get
settlement on your debt, you should never have to pay a fee, or the fee should
be fully refunded.
-
Does the debt settlement company you are
considering have IAPDA certified debt arbitrators?
-
Does the debt settlement company 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?
Is the debt settlement company you are
considering a member of the Better Business Bureau? It doesn't really matter.
Unfortunately, the BBB does not yet recognize Debt Settlement as an industry,
