Can a debt consolidation loan be a better alternative?
A debt consolidation loan can save you money if you have high-interest rates. To get the best rates you need an excellent credit score. However, if your current credit card rates are very high, or you need to consolidate medical and other bills, then a debt consolidation loan might be a good alternative.
What if I can't afford the minimum payments?
Minimum payments are a costly way to pay off your debt. The Debt Payoff (Snowball) Calculator shows how much you pay if you don't reduce your monthly payments.
If you can't afford your minimum payments, then take a serious look at your budget, or try to work out a debt relief program.
