How Credit Counseling can Lower your Interest
Credit counseling can help you understand why your interest
rates are high to begin with. The Accredited Financial
Counselors at Personal Financial Network will focus on the
trends that we see with your debts to determine why you are
getting higher interest rates. Then we work to develop a plan so
that you can earn lower interest rates on your credit cards.
When you have a strong budget, we can show you how to
strategize so that you are in position to request a lower
interest rate from each creditor. If you are having financial
problems, then a structured repayment schedule may make more
sense.
A debt management plan is one tool that allows you to repay
your debts under more favorable terms. These can include lower
interest rates as well as lower payments. The lower rates allow
you to concentrate more of each payment toward the principal
balance rather than on finance charges. The result is lower
balances faster than you could have done on your own.
Major creditors participate in debt management plans because
they benefit when they help you avoid default. They are
typically willing to grant you a lower interest rate once you
have completed a counseling session with an Accredited Credit
Counselor. To help you get back on track, participating
creditors slash your interest rate to a lower amount so that you
can more quickly pay down your debt balances.
The result of lower interest rates can include lower payments
and the chance to live debt free. Contact one of our credit
counselors today to find out how you might be eligible for
lower interest rates. Find out how you can
