How long does debt consolidation show on your credit?

Debt consolidation is usually removed when you complete or terminate the debt management plan. It is advisable to review your credit report on completion of the program and make sure that all information on your credit report is accurate. If the notation that you are undergoing debt consolidation has not been removed, you will need to contact the credit bureau to have it removed. There are a few creditors who may continue to report an account in a debt management plan as delinquent until the balance is totally paid up. This may have a negative impact on your credit worthiness.

What is credit card debt cancellation?

Debt cancellation is a type of credit insurance service provided by the credit card company usually for a monthly fee. In most cases, the card company will wave the outstanding balance on your card in case of your death or long term illness. The fee charged is a fixed percentage of your monthly outstanding balance. Debt cancellation is usually sold in conjunction with debt suspension and is termed DCDS. Debt suspension is a similar type of service, but instead of canceling the outstanding debt, the monthly payments may be suspended for a short period of time such as one year in the case of involuntary unemployment or some other type of unexpected life events.

Bankruptcy would be more credit damaging than just having large credit card debt, mainly because it stays on your credit report for longer.
