Let me go ahead and correct you here sir. Debt settlement is consolidating. What you doing is consolidating all your debts into one payment when you do that settlement. Only thing is that you're not getting a loan to pay off the debt, what is happening is the get settlement team is it going to negotiate with each of your creditors get your balances for each of your accounts reduced down to 50%. I worked in debt settlement and personally for me it's a better option because you're no longer paying interest you getting your balance is reduced so you no longer have to worry about dealing with the creditors directly. What bothers me is that people are so concerned about their credit when their utilization is so high they can't even use the credit. So in that situation why not just go with debt settlement. When you're getting a loan you're basically just moving trash from one side of the room to the next.
Thanks for the comment, Chris. There are at least 3 types of consolidation, and yes, debt settlement is a type of consolidation, and I believe it can be a good option for some folks.

I have about 50k in credit card debt with 650 FICO. Which credit cards are best for me?
I need a recommendation for balance transfer cards. I have chase freedom, chase sapphire, chase ink, us bank platinum, discovery card, Amex card, Amazon card, bank of America card. All credit cards are around 20% APR. My credit score is 654. I am afraid to apply for anything for fear of dropping my score below 650. What would you recommend I do? Which cards require 650+ credit scores? 700+?
Which balance transfer credit cards might be best in my position?
Thanks, sorry, I am behind on comments - Any chance you can call me/us at 833-272-3631? Would love to chat through it.
