How is debt settlement different from debt consolidation?
Debt settlement is a program that will help you save money to pay your unsecured debts in the future. Debt consolidation, on the other hand, is a loan that is designed to simply reduce your interest rates among your creditors. Depending on the amount of debt that you owe, it may take literally decades to clear your name, even with a reduced interest rate. Not to mention, consolidation could also negatively affect your credit score.
