Too many South Africans find themselves struggling to keep up with mounting debt from credit card bills to medical expenses. The stress of trying to make ends meet while keeping creditors at bay is an everyday reality for people across South Africa. Get Debt Counseling SA provides a resource for dealing with the overwhelming debt and getting people back on their feet.
Once an applicant submits their information and has it reviewed for eligibility, a debt counselor will be assigned to serve as a mediator between the applicant and the creditor. The counselor will negotiate payment terms that both the applicant and the creditor can live with, and the applicant will no longer have to deal with the endless phone calls and threatening letters.
Company founder Laura Palmieri formed counseling service after seeing the demand for a solution to the South African consumer's debt burden problem.
"Our aim is to provide you with accurate information and guidance on Debt Counseling process," Palmieri says on the company's Web site. "Take control of your finances and start leading a stress free life again.
Besides providing a debt counselor, the company also offers online resources that educate consumers on how to avoid getting into debt and how to recover if they already owe more than they can repay. Consumers can also find information on how to keep up their credit score so they can buy a home or finance a new business even if they are already in debt. The site can be found at http://www.getdebtcounsellingsa.co.za.
