Debt Consolidation can and will ruin your credit!

You've seen those long drawn out commercials full of promises to get you out of debt. They use words like "non-profit" and "conseling". To get you suckered in, then they got you. You call and you have 5 bills that are overdue. Remember the words "non-profit", okay now they want you to give them the account numbers and creditor names that you owe the balances. You do that and here comes the fees! Didn't they say non-profit? Yeah right! They may charge $5.00 per account or a flat rate of 39.95 a month.
