Debt settlement companies can help negotiate debt relief with all your creditors. This will include credit card companies who may be willing to write off part of your debt.
They won't reduce your debt. However, If you're in difficulties, credit card companies would rather negotiate a lower payment rate over a longer period - than default your account. They would normally try to help a customer than go down the legal recovery route.
Credit card negotiation is when you contact the bank and negotiate your credit card debt. This can mean negotiating a payment plan or just trying to get the overall debt reduced.
Usually yes - they'd rather suspend an account and have it paid off at a few pounds a week than go through taking a debtor to court.
Consumer Credit Companies are reliable in helping you get rid of bad debt, they contact your creditors and negotiate a settlement or monthly payments you can afford.
Banks and credit card companies offer the majority of the consolidation services for consolidating your debt. However, any consumer credit counseling service is the best way to go. Many times these services will negotiate with your debtors to get you a lower per month plan to pay off your debt.

Yes, there are many services, companies, and corporations that provide assitance for card debt. I suggest that you consider Hamilton Debt Relief if you are interested.
Debt consolidation companies do not eliminate debt. Do not confuse this with debt settlement. Consolidation companies simply merge all of your debts together into one payment a month that you make to them and sometimes lower interest rates. Debt settlement companies, however, negotiate directly with your creditors/collection agencies to settle debts for a lower, agreed upon, lump sum. This in turn gets you out of debt quicker.
