Talk Credit Radio: Does Debt Consolidation Really Work?

This week on Talk Credit Radio: Friday September 23, 2011

Tune into Talk Credit Radio this week with Credit.com’s personal finance expert Gerri Detweiler, live from 4-5 ET/1-2 PT on WSRQ.

Does Debt Consolidation Really Work?

Have you been looking for a debt consolidation loan or consolidation company to help you get out of debt? Every year, millions of Americans go online looking for debt consolidation help. But some of the “solutions” they’ll find just make things worse. This week on Talk Credit Radio, Gerri Detweiler talks with Neil Ellington of CESI Debt Solutions to help you understand how credit counseling and debt consolidation programs really work.

What does it take to successfully dig out of tens or thousands of dollars in debt? When is “failure” in a debt management program a good thing? And how does credit counseling really affect your credit? You’ll learn all this and more.

Plus, Christopher Maag from Credit.com will join the show again to talk about his recent experience with faith healer Peter Popoff and his “Miracle Spring Water and Debt Cancelling Kit.”

And Joe Kelly from ArcLoan.com joins the show to discuss why no closing cost mortgages are hot right now, and what homeowners can expect if they hope to take advantage of record low rates.

Call in live or submit a credit question for Gerri to answer on the show, and if she uses it on the air, you’ll win a free copy of your choice of  her books, Debt Collection Answers: How to Use Debt Collection Laws to Protect Your Rights or Reduce Debt, Reduce Stress: Real Life Solutions for Your Credit Crisis. Call into the live program at 941-373-1220 or send your question by email to creditexperts@credit.com. (Be sure to note your question is for Talk Credit Radio.)
