By Layla Vanderbilt

We do see people fall a prey in the hands of money lenders and look for people who can lend their helping hands to them. Most often such type of people continues to struggle and make their lives pathetic as none seems to help them. Here comes the Internet as their savior. The Internet offers you three types of good services with regard to consolidating debt. They are known as consolidation loan, debt management, and debt settlement.

You should have a clear cut understanding on these three services. If not, you will be confused and you will not be able to get benefit from theses services as each of these services has some special elements in helping the consumers pay off their debts. Let us see them one by one and try to understand how they could by utilized.

Debt Consolidation Loan: A debt consolidation loan takes into consideration all your high interest credit card debts and make them into one single low interest loan. You should be eligible for this type of loan. The eligibility is nothing but owning a home. The purpose of providing this type of loan is that with lower rate of interest you will really be able to pay on the principle and this will enable you to come out of debt gradually. Thus the mountain that looked blocking your way is being rolled out showing the way to freedom of life.

Debt Management: If you are not in so much debt, you can opt for debt management. Debt management companies unlike the consolidations will work with you to help you manage your finances hence getting out of debt. They will guide you in making a budget, which you will be able to stick to. This way you will not miss paying off your debts. Since the companies are mainly non-profit organizations they will have your best interest in their operations. The debt management company does not offer a loan or negotiate in any way with your creditors, instead they will only offer you advice in dealing with your current situation.

Debt Settlement: A more all-inclusive plan is Debt Settlement. The company deals directly with your creditors on your behalf to reduce the amount of your debt. Interest rates can be lowered, penalties may be removed, and possibly the debt itself could be removed. In some cases the plan could be similar to consolidation in that you could pay them a monthly payment and they would repay your creditors. - 29866
