With the down turn in the economy, many Debt Settlement Companies have popped up in Illinois IL over night. These Debt Settlement Companies are only interested in collecting their fees and have no interest in helping their clients.
Most Illinois IL Debt Settlement Companies don't tell you about their fees. That is because they charge 15%-18% of your total debt as a fee and they collect their fee before they ever settle any of your debts.
With most Illinois IL Debt Settlement Companies, all of what you pay into their program for first 12-18 months is taken by them in fees.
This gives you very little chance of completing the program and gives them no incentive to do their job.
This is why congress recently held hearings on the Debt Settlement industry and may soon pass legislation to regulate the way fees are collected and disclosed.
With a Illinois IL Debt Settlement Program from Next Step Debt Relief you pay a small, fully refundable enrollment fee to go on the program, then the bulk of our fee is based on a percentage of the amount forgiven by your creditors.
In other words the more we save you by getting a lower settlement, the more we collect as a fee. The settlement fee is only collected after a settlement has been reached with your creditor.
This gives us incentive to get you the best possible settlement.
Since all of your payments for the first 12-18 months are not being taken in fees, you start saving for settlements right away and you will be debt free much quicker.
Not all Illinois IL Debt Settlement Companies are the same. If you owe thousands of dollars in unsecured debt and you can no longer afford to make your payments, you may want consider our unique Debt Settlement Program.
