First check with the BBB to see if this company has a good record. Once you have chosen a Debt Consolidation company, just realize that joining one will not damage your credit. The only negative affect that you will receive is that if your accounts are not close by the time you join this company they will instruct you to close these accounts. Closing an active account will decrease your credit score anywhere from 10-20 points for each bureau that this account is reported with. But, in the long run, if this is your only choice, this will help you increase your score once your debts are paid off in full.

No matter what company that you decide to go into, they will put up your credit report to see if you are eligible for debt consolidation.

First it will be a 3 month wait to see if they actually approve the credit counseling plan. After that, you will see payments begin posting.
