    <description>Debt Group America helps individuals and families prevent, and avoid bankruptcy in the United States by offering debt consolidation and debt management programs, if your living with credit card debt call our debt consolidation care and support line 1-877-712-7610. Bankruptcy is a legal proceeding in which a debtor declares his or her inability to pay consumer or business debts as they become due; debtors may seek a discharge from continuing personal liability for unsecured debts or they may attempt to reorganize financially by seeking an extended period of time in which to pay all or a proportion of their indebtedness. Chapter 13 Bankruptcy is used in special situations, primarily to allow the filer to keep his/her home. A court-appointed trustee oversees a strict repayment plan to pay off your debts during a period of three to five years. Bankruptcy is a court action that stops lawsuits and any other attempts by creditors or collection agencies to collect from you. However, it comes with a high cost—it generally stays on your credit report for a full 10 years, causing extreme difficulty in using credit to obtain cars, home or other loans and can even restrict you from certain types of employment. Bankruptcy should never be thought of as a “quick” or “free” way to get out of debt, as it can completely destroy your credit worthiness for a very long time.</description>

	<title>Credit Card Debt Relief | Debt Consolidation</title>
    <link>http://www.debtgroupamerica.com/credit_card_debt_relief!.php</link>
    <description>While there's never a good time to have a lot of credit card debt, this is a particularly bad time to carry a big balance. The cost of debt is rising, and options for getting rid of it are shrinking. In the past, minimum payments ranged from 2% to 2.5% of the balance, which can lead to a life time of debt. For example, suppose you owe $10,000 on a card with an 18% interest rate and can only afford to pay 2.5% of the balance every month. It will take you nearly 32 years to pay off the debt, and you'll pay more than $14,600 in interest alone. Spending discipline isn't the forte of many young adults, though -- particularly during the holiday shopping season. Consumers ages 20 to 29 carry an average $5,781 in revolving debt, which includes credit card loans and various personal loans -- a 24% rise from five years ago, adjusted for inflation, according to an analysis by Experian of the credit records of 3 million. Especially when you're young, the short-term freedom that credit cards provide can be deceptive: Spend now, pay later. But over the long term, piling up too much debt, or failing to pay it off on time, can make it harder for you to buy a car or a house later. Most consumers attempt to satisfy legitimate debts such as credit card debt with the fewest dollars out of pocket, paid over the longest term, unfortunately most creditors are not willing to work directly with the debtor. Once you enroll into Debt Group America's debt consolidation program you are immediately engaged in the consolidation process, our financial consultants base every discussion with the creditor on the "if . . . then . . ." relationship—"If we do this, then you will do that.

	<title>Debt Consolidation Services</title>
    <link>http://www.debtgroupamerica.com/debt_consolidation_services.php</link>
    <description>Often, loan consolidation is confused with debt consolidation services, whose offers frequently appear in the mail or through e-mail and are designed for people with severe debt problems. The debt consolidation service renegotiates loan terms with your creditors and consolidates the loans into a single payment through the debt service . The use of a debt consolidation program can hurt your credit rating for a short time frame, but no where near as detrimental as bankruptcy. Loan consolidations, on the other hand, are generally available only to people with excellent credit ratings, or individuals who choose to risk their home as collateral. Consolidation loans come in many forms, the most common being home equity loans, home equity lines of credit, "cash out" home refinancing, student loan consolidation programs, and personal loans through financial institutions. Here's how to tell if a debt consolidation service is something you need to consider. Evaluate your financial position: Write down the exact details of your income and expenses for two months. Now add up all your debts and total the minimum payments due on each. Financial planners say if you can afford to pay double the amount of all your minimum payments each month and still put away at least 10 percent of your income in a savings fund for emergencies, you just need a disciplined spending plan so you can accelerate paying off debts. Can you get a cheaper cellphone plan or make do with basic cable? You'd also be surprised at how much you can trim from your monthly out-of-pocket expenses by making a weekly shopping list for groceries and personal-care items and sticking to it. Avoid using credit cards and refrain from unscheduled trips to the ATM. Call each creditor with whom you've been delinquent and ask to work out a re-payment plan, and again, stick to the program. You may not need to render debt consolidation services after all. Know when to seriously consider debt help: Several of the following factors combined can signal that you need professional debt consolidation help. • You avoid collection calls because your not sure how to repay or reply.• If your forced to purchase necessities on credit that you would normally purchase with cash.• lf you regularly skip some bills to pay others or take credit-card money advances or borrow money to make ends meet until payday. Your level of debt, your level of discipline and your prospects for increased income are key indicators of the kind of help that's right for you. In addition to simple budgeting and credit counseling--but before bankruptcy--there's debt consolidation services provided by Debt Group America. Be aware that only 33 percent of those who seek our debt consolidation help actually qualify for this service.	</description>

In a debt management program, debtors / clients in distress are required to provide a list of their bills.

The debtors make one adjusted monthly payment to the agency, which disburses the funds to the individual creditors.

    <link>http://www.debtgroupamerica.com/debt_relief_made_simple!.php</link>
    <description>Before you can tackle your debts, you'll need to stop building them up. The rule is straightforward: If you don't have enough hard cash and steady income, don't buy the item. Credit cards don't feel, smell, or even look like real money, which makes it incredibly easy to spend more than you can really afford. Your path to debt relief can start by simply ridding yourself of whats known as "bad debt" (credit cards, department store cards, car payments, etc.). They tend to have higher interest rates than mortgages and student loans, which are both considered "good" debts because they're investments in your future, and overall wellbeing. If possible, negotiate lower interest rates. If you have a good record of paying bills, contact your creditors to see whether you can get a better rate. Slashing interest rates down means that more of each dollar is going toward paying off your balance. Dont fall into temptation by opening up new credit card accounts. You'll spare yourself from digging a deeper hole in debt. Pay your bills the easy, less expensive way, online. If you miss one bill, all your other lenders can punish you with universal default, meaning they can hike up your interest rates on all your credit cards. To prevent yourself from falling into a debt trap, take advantage of automatic bill payments available at most banks. And last but, certainly not least if you do decide to open up a new credit card account make sure to read the fine print before submitting yourself into what could lead you back to Debt Group America for round two.</description>

    <link>http://www.debtgroupamerica.com/debt_relief_with_dga.php</link>
    <description>Debt Group America helps clients realize the wrong relationship they've built around money. Whether spending too much of it, or spending way too much time caring about it. Many clients mismanaged their income so much that their lives were in bondage to debt, and soon became a spiritual depressor of growth. 

Debt Group America's debt consolidation counselors see the world differently. In the current credit card crunch, more borrowers are turning to debt consolidation and relief programs. The debt relief industry alone helped 2.7 million individuals in 2007, a nearly 30% jump from 2006. Without the usual rate breaks, debt consolidation companies and counselors abroad think more people will fall behind on their payments. That could potentially lead to an uprise in bankruptcies. A study by Visa Inc. found that 50% of consumers who dropped out of credit counseling programs declared bankruptcy. $38 billion dollars was the amount of bad credit-card debt in 2007, vs. $36 billion in 2006. Debt Group America provides more than tips on how to get out of personal debts, we take the necessary steps to get you out of debt, the right way! Debt relief strategies include the creation of a budget to determine how much money could be allocated to payoff your debts, prioritizing debt payments, negotiating with creditors to lower the interest rate on outstanding balances and much more. If you can outsmart the crafty plastic providers then you may not need debt relief with Debt Group America. But if its crunch time now that last months dreaded bills are starting to arrive, then our debt consolidation program may be in your best interest. If you're not cautious, you'll land in booby traps set by credit card issuers, who typically charge interest rates of 14 percent or more and late or over-limit fees as high as $39. But, you can beat the credit card companies at their own game and save even more, just by knowing and more importantly applying simple money saving steps. First, don't wait to pay your credit card bills. When you carry a balance, interest accumulates every day you wait. Did you know some cards charge interest from the time of purchase, even when there's no balance outstanding. Many now require you to pay within 20 days (the "grace period") of your statement's closing date to avoid owing interest. What's more, if you're late, the credit card issuer might jack up your interest rate--immediately--to 30 percent or higher, without your knowledge. Rates may get hiked on your other cards, too, even if you've paid them on time. How does that happen? Almost all banks keep checking their customers' credit histories. If they see you paid one card late, they may decide you're a higher risk and start charging more. So your probably thinking, "they can't do that"! But they do, everyday. Secondly, Pay your credit card bill the day it arrives. That way, you won't forget and you won't rack up interest charges. When the statement comes, don't move it to your "current bills" pile. Get out a stamp and write a check, or take care of it instantly online. Alternatively, arrange to pay the bill automatically from your bank account. Avoid paying by phone; there's often a fee.</description>

    <description>Debt settlement associates provide verbal communications to creditors / collection agency on behalf of the debtor / consumer they are representing, debt settlement consultants help their clients negotiate outstanding debt and past due credit card bills. Unlike Debt Group America, debt settlement is not a credit counseling service, debt consolidation company or a consolidation loan. Rather, a buffer between you and your creditors. Most debt settlement companies will set up a trust account within a bank or law firm. Once you and your debt settlement counselor determine a payment plan for you, you will make that payment directly into the account instead of paying your creditors directly. The purpose of any debt settlement program is to stop paying your credit card issuers and lenders and instead grow money in a designated account until the amount is enough to close in on your creditors and negotiate an influential payoff amount. Debt settlement like debt consolidation and credit counseling has it's perks, however not all creditors are willing to negotiate with debt settlement companies and often choose to reject some if not all settlement request's. The purpose behind debt settlement is similar to that of debt consolidation, but achieved very differently. The debt settlement process helps any person owing credit card debt, medical debt or any personal unsecured debt . Debt settlement counselor are trained to approach creditors in an unemotional manner, therefore eliminating the verbal threshold that lies between debtors and creditors. Debt settlement counslelors not only discuss the best ways to settle your delinquent accounts, but also utilize the fastest, most affordable method. The length of every debt settlement plan will be determined by your counselor, and is determined by your income to debt amount. During the course of a debt settlement program, your circumstances may change, if so a counselor will devise a new plan that better suites your needs.</description>

But figuring out which debts to payoff first is a mystery itself, a problem that Debt Group America can help you solve. The credit card dilemma is a common setback for families struggling to repay a variety of loans and unsecured debts. Should you pay your credit cards first, and in what order, or are you better off putting extra money toward, say, your mortgage or car loan?

Simply explained, debt	consolidation is not a loan, but a way to lower your monthly payments and reduce (often eliminate) the interest you are currently paying.

    <description>Debt consolidation is the safest debt management process available to consumers who can't afford their current bills, why? Debt consolidation and counseling companies have relationships with thousands of creditors nationwide, so creditors are much more inclined to helping people resolve their credit card problems and unsecured past due debt. This is achieved by establishing a scheduled repayment plan that is based on the consumers current budget. Consolidation loans could put your home at risk, because most consolidation loan lenders require collateral before lending, and this could be very dangerous, our program does not put your home and well being in harms way. Statistics show that bankruptcy can become detrimental to anyone's financial future and stability, especially American's that are catogorized into the middle, or lower class income level. Primarily because most middle class citizens depend on credit cards and loans for future business, financial, family or lifestyle purposes. Debt Group America's debt consolidation service lowers your monthly obligations and reduces the interest you are currently paying.

	<title>Debt Group America | Reduce Interest Rates | American Debt Relief | Debt Consolidation Company</title>
    <link>http://www.debtgroupamerica.com/Less_in_the_load.php</link>
    <description>Bad news for the credit card companies may be better news for you. There are signs and trends that consumers may be responding to higher rates by doing something almost completely unexpected and practically un-American--paying down credit card debt with the assistance of debt consolidation companies. The credit card industry presumes, based on happy experience, that Americans will ignore higher interest rates and keep borrowing more money each quarter to support their spending habits. But last quarter, Debt Group America, to its apparent shock, found what it called `unexpectedly high payment volumes' from US credit card customers. Even better, from our point of view, is that people were paying off more debt on accounts with higher interest rates. In other words, customers didn't respond to rising rates by making the minimum payment and then going even deeper into debt. They actually did the wise thing! It turns out many customers are having entirely rational reactions to rising interest rates and perhaps to the new tougher bankruptcy law. They're taking the sometimes painful steps necessary to reduce credit card debt before it overwhelms them. Of course, even if more consumers are dealing with debt more rationally. Credit cards are so beloved in American homes, they are practically family. It's going to take a lot more than higher interest rates to get Americans to kick the habit. Credit cards seem to be more accessible than ever and there is no question that the tiny pieces of plastic is incredibly convenient. They can also be a lifesaver when comes to emergency expenses. But for the approximately 60 percent of credit card users who don't pay their balance in full each month, what seems like a life raft can quickly become an anchor. So if your one of the 60% who don't payoff your credit card balance in full, beware. Today's spending policy in Washington seems to have trickled down to American citizens, who are frequently encouraged to be "good consumers" in order to boost the economy. But debt levels and personal savings pay the price. Twenty years ago the average American saved nearly 11 percent of his or her income. Today that amount has fallen to less than 2 percent. That decline in savings has left many unprepared to deal with life-altering events, such as divorce, medical problems, unemployment or retirement, leading them to use credit cards to bridge the financial gap. Large amounts of credit card debt can be paralyzing, but outside help is available in many forms; one being debt consolidation, however Debt Group America encourages consumers to weigh out any and all of their debt relief options before enrolling in our debt consolidation service. We try and demonstrate that largely your financial situation is not the problem, it's the symptom, The way we spend money really is a window into our values and priorities.</description>

    <description>Debt Group America understands how difficult it can be to seek help. It takes a lot of courage to face your debt and overall financial problems. And it's not just overspenders who seek out services. Debt Group America see's cases in which a person has had a serious illness, and a lot of elderly people that have recently retired and started charging their medications on their credit card. Debt Group America provides America's most legitimate service that pair's each client with a credit counselor who provides financial education and the tools to develop a budget, one that includes a debt-repayment plan. Our plans require clients to deposit money each month with the counseling service, which then distributes payment to the creditors, who may or may not offer reduced interests rates or fee reductions. Other companies are less up-front, charging hidden fees or offering bankruptcy disguised as debt relief. (Bankruptcy is generally considered to be the solution of last resort because of its long-term effects. A bankruptcy stays on a credit report for 10 years, and can make it difficult to obtain credit, buy a home or get life insurance. Despite these consequences, more than 1.6 million personal bankruptcies were filed in 2007 alone, the largest number ever. According to the U.S. courts, filings increased 7.4 percent from 2002 and almost 100 percent since 1994). Financial health isn't entirely about dollars and cents; emotion also plays a part, at Debt Group America we take our clients confidentiality into the upmost account. Many people seem to over acquire possessions. Others find that shopping -- on the Internet, off the television, or in the mall -- can give them a high or calm them down when they are in distress. The downside is that once those good feelings have gone away, the debt remains, it's Debt Group America's sole responsibility and mission to positively impact our clients financial situation by utilizing every resource within our legal limits.</description>

After giving Debt Group America's debt counselor the account names, numbers and balances that you want to combine, we will help you work out a budget and determine how much you can afford to pay toward your debts. 2. A designated debt consolidation counselor will then contact your creditors and work out payment arrangements. 3.
