Is there help for debt consolidation? Sure, there is; and the help is available for free in some areas. If you have bad credit, then you can find the appropriate help in free do-it-yourself kits at the local libraries. Debtors can use their public library and find self help books that will direct them from start to finish through the process of paying your bills all the way to restoring your credit.

Most libraries will permit you to copy and print the forms inside the guides. The you do this you can just fill in the blanks, submit the forms to the right sources; and soon you will be on your way to financial freedom.

Most lenders prefer letters over phone calls, since the letters explain deeper details than what they get with an average phone call. In addition, if you are being taken to court over not paying your bills, it is best for you to have this written proof of your efforts to take care of his debt on your own. Having this information in writing will always stand up better in court than just simple word-of-mouth.

In addition, you should keep all copies of return letters or letters from your creditors. This will include taping telephone conversations, keeping a record of dates, time, and even the person's name who called. You will provide a short synopsis of the conversation and store the files in a safe place.

Whenever you get your bills or statements in the mail, you should go over them exhaustively. If you run across any mistakes you should contact the creditor immediately. There are lots of times you can discover mistakes on your accounts, and if you don't let them know about the error you'll get charged and end uppaying for something that you didn't get. The burden of dispute is on you, if you don't dispute it you have to pay it.

It takes time to go through debt consolidation process, but if you successfully finish the program, with time you'll gradually experience the benefits of being debt free.
