How Does Debt Settlement Work?


Debt settlement is a process where you or a debt settlement company negotiates with creditors to decrease the amount that you repay. In general, creditors and debt collectors will only agree to a debt settlement if they believe that you are in a state of financial hardship. The benefits to having professional debt negotiators work for you is decreased stress and in many cases, increased success. A good debt settlement company knows which creditors will negotiate and their average settlement.


While a debt negotiation relief company like Pacific Debt Relief are negotiating with them, you build up a savings and then use that money to pay off the settled debt one creditor at a time. If you stop making credit card payments, there can be many repercussions. The first thing that may happen when you miss a credit card payment, even by a few days, is that you may incur late charges.

Who Can Use Debt Settlement?


If you have substantial debt and are struggling to make minimum payments, or are considering bankruptcy, debt settlement may be a great solution. 


Most debt settlement companies require you to have an outstanding debt of $10,000 in unsecured debt. Unsecured debt includes consumer debt like credit card debt, medical bills, payday loans, utility bills, rent, phone bills, repossessed car payments, child support, lines of credit, student loans, and tax debt.


Not all debt settlement companies handle every type of unsecured debts, so always make certain your debt settlement company does. Creditors do not like to settle unless they are certain that you can not pay the full amount. If making any monthly payment is impossible for you, you may be an ideal candidate for debt settlement services.


What Are the Pros and Cons of Debt Settlement?


If you are considering debt settlement, make certain that you understand the pros and cons of the process. 


Pros

  • Pay substantially less than you owe
  • Alternative to bankruptcy
  • Learn to live debt free 
  • One low monthly payment
  • Eliminate debt
  • Get out of debt in two to four years

Cons

  • Credit report and credit scores may take a short term hit
  • Not all creditors negotiate
  • Settled debt may be considered taxable income

Always ask a lot of questions no matter what route you decide to take and read your settlement agreement. There is no one perfect solution of becoming debt free so make certain you understand your options, possible outcomes, and the pros and cons for each possible solution.

In order for a debt to qualify for Pacific Debt Relief's debt settlement program, the debt must be unsecured. Unsecured debt is debt that has no collateral attached, such as credit card debt, personal loans, payday loans, medical bills, and deficiency balances on repossessed vehicles. Most of the debt we deal with is credit card debt but we have had tremendous success with many other types of unsecured debt.


If all of your accounts are in collections, or you are unsure of the balances, one of Pacific Debt's credit counselors can run a soft credit pull to review your list of accounts and get a snapshot of your financial picture. Generally speaking, we require $10,000 in unsecured debt to qualify for the debt settlement program.


After reviewing your creditor accounts, Pacific Debt Inc's team will assess your current budget. We go through all of your income and monthly expenses to determine a program payment and estimate that will work for you. Our goal is to eliminate debt totals or help you pay off your debt as fast as possible with a payment that fits comfortably within your budget.


Quite often our debt relief program payment we can offer is significantly less than the sum of your current minimum payments and the Pacific Debt services program length estimate will often be much shorter than a typical credit counseling program. Once we have you qualified for the Pacific Debt Inc debt relief program, one of our debt counselors will email you a secure enrollment packet. We review all of the information with you to make sure you understand all of the details.


Once the paperwork is completed your Debt Specialist will submit your file to Pacific Debt Inc Client Care team for servicing. You then start making monthly payments into a savings account. Once these monthly payments add up and your debt is negotiated, the money is applied toward your debt payments.
