Thank you Family Credit for working with me and on my behalf to financial freedom. Since taking over my debts, my credit score went up 230 points. Instead of beging companies to give me a chance, I now have options and am able to say no. Thank you so much. Dina

I had services with this company for several years. Recently I set up a consolidation plan with them. They took out the money for several months. I prompted them to follow the debt consolidation plan several times. They blundered over $800 into accounts in a complete disregard for my consolidation plan. All I got was a sorry and an explanation that they couldn't understand my consolidation plan from the notes. The staff lacks competency and can't handle a complicated consolidation plan. Don't waste your money or time with this company.

National Debt Relief took control of my debt and showed me what could be done. I had never been in a situation like this before and didn't know who to turn too. I just knew I didn't want to declare bankruptcy. With their help I am able to at least pay some of it back.

The email with the offer prompted my to confirm/deny the offer. When I clicked on the link, the terms of the offer did not appear on the page and therefore I couldn’t evaluate what to confirm or deny. I reached out for it to be fixed, with no response. The customer service is poor and only replies when there is a form letter template to use.
The Final Word
Because Family Credit Management helps clients with debt management plans, it does not have a minimum debt requirement. When clients enroll in its program, they pay a one-time enrollment fee and a monthly fee. The average enrollment fee is $40. The average monthly fee is $30.
Family Credit Management negotiates to lower interest rates, which will make it easier to pay down your debt. Depending on their plan’s structure, clients make one or two monthly payments which Family Credit Management then disburses to creditors.
Debt management plans are advantageous because they do not hurt your credit score and lower interest rates make debts easier to pay off.
In contrast, National Debt Relief offers debt settlement programs. With a debt settlement program, clients generally stop making any payments on their debts. Instead, they set this money aside in an account to be used to pay settlements once they’re negotiated.
National Debt Relief charges 18–25 percent of the enrolled debt, depending on state laws. Payment is not due until settlements are reached. National Debt Relief has a $7,500 minimum debt requirement.
Because debt settlement clients typically stop making any payments on their debts, their credit score is negatively affected. Having a plan to rebuild credit before enrolling in debt settlement is important.
National Debt Relief is a trusted debt settlement company. It is a member of the AFCC and is IAPDA accredited. These memberships and accreditations show that National Debt Relief is dedicated to offering clients high quality services.
National Debt Relief also sends referrals for debt consolidation if that’s a better fit for a potential client. The company understands that debt settlement has risks and is not for everyone. These referrals further show National Debt Relief’s commitment to ensuring that its clients receive the kind of debt relief that best fits their situation.
