Posted by admin in Personal Finance on May 28, 2009
Just Me asked:
is there really any practical sense and benefit from delaying payment of your bills by as long as possible(ie. without being penalised in monentary terms) ? do big corporations see a greater effect in doing so? what about small households and consumers?

inactive/idled credit cards automatically closed by company?
nyqnzdude asked:
i read an article about credit cards @ aol.com and it seems that soon or after a certain amount of days of an idled/inactive credit card. the company will shut you down (close your account) and that close will hurt your credit score MORE than the consumer closing the account.
i read an article about credit cards @ aol.com and it seems that soon or after a certain amount of days of an idled/inactive credit card. the company will shut you down (close your account) and that close will hurt your credit score MORE than the consumer closing the account.
CURRENT SCORE = ===749===
amex cc – $0 balance / idled (used it for 3-4months max longtime ago)
macys store – $0 balance / idled
century21 mastercard – $800 balance / 1500 credit limit
chase visa – $500 balance / 1300 credit limit
bloomingdales store – $600 balance / 2000 credit limit
bloomingdales visa – $0 balance / NEVER used. but active i think
i’m scared that if you put you’re card on idle/inactive. that after a certain time they will close it for you and it will impact a lot worse on your credit report rather than the consumer closing it. Is there any suggestions? should i close any cards or let them close it? i’m not sure how long they let you have it inactive for. but from reading it will hurt more if they close it. damnit. i wish i just had 2 cards…..arg……what is highly recommended here….close the newer ones? how should i do it? i have a friend that closed 3 credit cards 10yrs ago and 10yrs later hes credit score went from 650 to 740. but i don’t wan’t that to happen to me. how many points will drop if i close an account ? i make $11 an hour & go to school.
———————————————————————————————
i’m thinking of transfering the $800 from century21 mastercard to the chase visa cause of lower interest rate. i hear that some companies can rise the interest rate cause of this? overall this detailed info, do you suggest it? if so replay separately concerning this transfering

Best service to use to settle credit card debt?
italia044 asked:
I’ve heard some people say that the only fair company to use is “Consumer Credit Counseling” but they were charging about 10% of my original debt (which is quite high). Has anyone used those online services that you see on TV? I know there are some companies that allow you to pay off your accounts over time but I would rather get everything settled and not have to worry about it. I’ve tried personally calling the credit card companies or the collection agencies but have gotten no where. Any help would be great!
Or are local attorney’s better.

New York Consumer Credit Counseling Services
Nancy Smith asked:
New York consumer credit counseling services is one of the most appealing, valuable and short-term solutions to anyone who wishes to secure a debt free future. These agencies also help you consolidate your debt, set up a repayment plan, and make arrangements to let you keep part of your income. The agencies also “teach” you to stay out of debt in future situations.
New York consumer credit counseling services is one of the most important requirements for consumers these days for unsecured debt continues to burden individuals and families. Unsecured conditions are mainly due to personal loans, unforeseen medical bills, huge credit card debts, and unplanned educational expenses.
The professionals at the New York consumer credit counseling programs will analyze your financial information including your income, expenses, existing debt, and general financial situation to outline a plan that can help you regain control of your financial life. By closely assessing your debt situation, they are able to determine the best debt consolidation solution and discuss the plan with you that would meet your needs.
- How does the New York Consumer Credit system work? -
What people first need to know to better understand how the New York consumer credit process really operates is that counselors do not renegotiate the overall amount of your debt which is the total balance owed to the creditors. They negotiate with the various lenders to decrease your interest rates. I.e. let’s say that a client has to pay 17 percent on the charge card you need help with (some stores still charge as much as 20 percent). One of our credit counselors will contact the card holder and negotiate a lower interest rate, sometimes as much as half the original rate.
- If I start paying right now through the New York Consumer credit program will I be debt free in no time? -
It is not that easy because your minimum payments will still be split on an 80/20 split (not always), meaning that 80 percent of your monthly payment will still go toward paying interest on the card and the 20 percent left will got to the principal. We, as the New York consumer credit counseling team, advice people to try and make a little more than the minimum payment in order to reduce the principal. In the long run it will translate into lots of savings.
- Why does the creditor accept the deal proposed by the New York consumer credit counseling services? -
The deals made by the New York consumer credit team are accepted for two simple reasons: The creditor is only interested in getting his money back even if that means losing part of the interest charges. In the long run, the creditor will receive a lot of money due to the deal made by the New York consumer credit counseling team. But in order to keep debtors paying, the creditors need to agree to reduce interest charges and make considerable deals. The second reason is because the lender is making a profit out of this anyway; though not as good as he would have liked. What is important to him is to avoid debtors filing for bankruptcy because that will for sure affect the creditor. However, the person will certainly end up paying the debt but the deadline will be longer and that is what the lender tries to avoid.
The New York consumer credit counseling service has several extra services that can help the lender. One of those is the Housing Counseling, a service aimed at helping clients with issues concerning their housing needs. For instance, when a family considers borrowing money (applying for a loan) in order to start a new home, they can ask for assistance from the New York consumer credit counseling program and evaluate whether this is a financially sound action or not.
The New York consumer credit counseling program offers services beyond the Debt Management Program. It offers assistance with money management, debt reduction plans you can handle, counseling and free educational programs. Everyone can receive debt consolidation advice from the New York consumer credit team of counselors as they seek to educate people and give them the skills they need to achieve a better financial situation
Here we have different articles of interesting topics, current and former clients’ experiences with our programs. Take a look at the different New York consumer credit situations on debt related topics and how to keep yourself a debt free person. Check out the links below:

Who Needs Consumer Credit Counseling?
Posted by admin in Non Fiction on May 21, 2009
Brooke Hayles asked:
Professional consumer credit counseling services are available to help people who need to reduce their debt and recover their credit. When choosing a counselor you should try to find one who has accreditation through the Council on Accreditation or the International Standards Organization, does not work for profits and has experience exceeding ten years.
What Do Consumer Credit Counseling Agencies Do?
Your counselor should strive to not only help with your current debts but also put plans and goals in place for you. A good consumer credit counselor will be able to push for a lower percent interest on your credit or have your late fees deleted.
Another option they may arrange is for your loan to be stretched over a longer period so your payments become lower. Usually you will arrange to pay the counseling agency and they will then disburse your funds accordingly.
A Pathway To Financial Freedom
Having a firm plan for saving and future goals is very important. Whether you are an individual or have a family, they will plan a suitable budget for you to stick to so you can achieve financial freedom. Your agent will discuss ways you can avoid ever getting into debt again.

If your community is made up of people who are financially independent and comfortable, business and families will flourish. Sometime all people need is a helping hand and the results can effect many people around them. Donating to charities such as the American Red Cross supports free consumer credit counseling services nationwide.
Only Use Reputable Agents
There have been some horror stories to do with consumer credit counseling. You need to be wise when sifting through the thousands that are out there to be sure you don’t end up trusting a con artist.

You can have your counseling over the internet. You need to fill out some information about your debts and credit and they work via email to create a plan for you. Some companies also offer online credit counseling courses for their clients who want to learn for their own personal reasons.

How Consumer Credit Counseling Works?
jackieeshepherd asked:
One of the main concerns in economical and financial unstable times is to fulfill your credit obligations. But how do you meet your colossal debt payments in such tough situations? In desperation, you might end up filing a bankruptcy. Consumer credit counseling is an aid to come out of the difficult times and also a way to upgrade your credit score and choose some better ways like debt settlement or debt consolidation
You need credit counseling, if you fall in one of the given categories.
• If you are in debts beyond your resources but intending to enhance your credit worthiness and not end up insolvent.
• If amendments in the terms of credit namely interest rates, place you in a comfortable position to repay debts.
• You have reasonable corresponding resources but getting restive due to massive debts.
• If you failed to get a revised repayment plan from your creditor.
Consumer Credit Counseling – A Brief Insight
Began in the mid 20th century, consumer credit counseling is a process to educate consumers grappling with huge debts, unable to meet timely obligations. Credit counseling includes debt restructuring or debt management plan enabling the consumer regain debt repayment capacity and trim any imminent dent in credit scores. Besides assisting in restructuring debt, credit counseling also helps in better evaluation of financial situation and resources.
Modus Operandi of Credit Counseling
Consumer credit counseling agencies often have a tie-up with creditors and offer non-judgmental advice. An expert guidance in the backdrop of a diminishing credibility enables you to negotiate restructuring better with your creditors. The information and data shared by you is kept highly confidential by the credit counselors and they incorporate easy modes to reach you at any point in time. E-mails, live chats on web portals, phone calls and even personal visits enable timely expert advice reach you. Subsequent to detailed discussions, they offer you customized solutions to avoid bankruptcy and consequently upgrade your credit standing.
Once you sign a suitable solution plan with the credit counseling agency, they will in turn pursue the same with the creditor. You need to pay the revised periodic repayments to the credit counseling agency which transfers the same to the creditor.
Consumer Credit Counseling Agencies
Though the rapidly growing industry comprises of few deceptive agencies, you can put your apprehensions to rest by associating with a Member of the Association of Independent Consumer Credit Counseling Agencies (AICCCA) or an agency affiliated with National Foundation for Credit Counseling.
Pin your attention on the below aspects to avoid further undermining of your financial position:
• Most often credit counseling agencies do not charge unusually high fees for their services, so you need to be cautious of any high fee demanding agency.
• Once you make the regular periodic payments to the credit counselor, a timely enquiry regarding the onward transfer of the same funds to the creditor is advisable to avoid any odds of misappropriation of your funds.
Is Credit Counseling Free of Any Negative Cues to Creditors?
Though associating with a credit counseling agency and the subsequent most probable debt restructuring or management plan signals instability in your financial situation, it also is a testament to your intention to remain solvent and meet your obligations to the extent possible, which is much favorable to creditors than a bankruptcy. Creditors may consider lending in future to consumers with a past restructuring debt than a consumer with a bankrupt history.
So, you need not be concerned on your financial flux and reach out to a legitimate consumer credit counseling agency and have expert consumer credit counseling to enhance you present and future credit score.
