Are you in debt and desperately need help? Please feel free to contact us and we will explain the debt review process and how debt review will be able to assist you. So you may ask, what is debt review? This question has been asked quite a bit and with more and more people looking debt review, we decided to give an explanation regarding this question.
Debt Review is basically the process where anyone who is in debt, can be placed under debt review in order to protect them from the creditors and not be blacklisted. The Debt Counsellor basically negotiates with your creditors about your outstanding amounts and then gets an agreement that you will repay the debts at the stated amounts owed. The creditor can then not take legal steps, unless they have already started with legal steps before you are placed under debt review.
There are fees involved as well that you have to pay, but we will discuss this in more detail with you, so be sure to contact us and we will contact you with more detailed information.
How to Reduce your Debt?
In the current economy, with South Africa downgraded to junk status, it is wise to reduce your debt as far as possible. It might be easier said than done.
The question is, how do I reduce my debt?
- Take control of your finances and know your budget
Firstly, I would suggest one take control of your budget. Compile a simple income and expense forecast of what a typical month will look like. Keep your expenses aligned with your budget as planned or forecasted as far as possible.
- Limit the amount of borrowing to the bear minimum
Do not open clothing, furniture or other similar accounts. Rather save for something you really need, than do purchases on credit. In most cases you will find that the item want today, will not necessarily be appealing to you in 3 – 4 months.
- Pay more than you need to
If you have some funds available in your budget, do an additional payment on your bond or hire purchase monthly. The accumulative effect on the interest saved will speed up the time of repayment of the item quicker.
- Get help from a debt counsellor
Call in the help of a professional debt counsellor when your debt gets out of hand and BEFORE any of your creditors start pursuing a legal action against you.
