How do you consolidate your debts in the UK?

The best way to consolidate all your existing debts so you're only paying one affordable monthly payment is to go through a debt management company. There are many in the U.K, some are out only to rob you of your money but others do care about the well-being of the individual. It is wise to consider all options before going ahead. There is a lot of scope about the CCCS being the 'best' there is, but what people fail to realise is that the CCCS work for your creditors, so they don't always have your bestinterests at heart.

There are many debt websites such as DebtLine-Direct.com, that offer FREE, confidential and impartial advice about any debt matter. They also can arrange for debt relief solutions that can be tailored to your requirements such as debt management plans, trust deeds, IVAs and bankruptcy.

What impacts does urban consolidation have on maroubra?

Urban consolidation is when high density accommodation is built in the area. In Maroubra, there are many more high rise apartments so that more people can live in the suburb. This can lead to more customers in shops, more people in the transport system, gentrification (which is when there are more higher class, affluent people in the area) and more neighbours for people already living in the area, which can be good or bad.

How much money does each citizen need to pay in order to pay off the debt if the healthcare plan is passed?

In fact, nobody knows. Not the President, not the Congress, not the Office of Management and Budget and certainly I don't know. At present, without federally guaranteed health-care being law, the national debt is about $150,000 per person. But anyone who pretends to know just how much cash will be needed to pay for this foolish plan would have to know detailed info about the bill, which is still not final.

Do you pay off lower interest debt first or higher ones?

You should pay off the higher interest debt first plainly because they will cost you more money if you payed of the lower interest debt first. Another thing to take into account is how large the debt is because if that is the case then you should pay off the larger debt. :)

It would make sense to pay of the higher interest debts before the lower ones.

That could save you a lot of money.

A credit card loan of 20.000 mounts up to roughly 50.000 in less than five years if not payed down on. This is mainly due to a very high interest rate. often 21-24%, sometimes even more.

If being able to convert it to a low interest loan in a bank, say of 4%, then it would only mount up to 25.000 in the same time.

It makes sense to me to rather have to pay 25.000 than 50.000

What does it mean if a old debt is not on your credit report?

Under current laws, a bad account remains on your credit report for only 7-years from the last payment date. Other types of debts, and even public notices, remain on your credit for longer. The right thing to do is pay your bills, do so on-time, and always make sure not to over spend on credit.

Can a third party collection agency who owns debts sue after purchasing right away?

No. They are required by law to provide you with two notices, which are typiclly sent in a single letter, that being (1) that they have purchased the debt and you now owe them the balance; and (2) provide you with the required notice that you have 30-days to dispute the debt and to require it to be validated. Secondly, it would be illegal for them to file any lawsuit or threaten to file such action within that 30-days validity prior. They could however provide you with that first notice and inform you that they will be filing a lawsuit in 30-days; but even that has proven in court to still break if not bend the rules. I would say to google for a FDCPA attorney because you would have a case for them violating the laws if that is what they said or did; since both are not legal.

How do you settle debt with credit card?

Is money recived from a third party to pay debt taxable?

Money received from a third party to pay off a debt is generally not considered taxable income for the debtor. This is because it is viewed as a payment made on behalf of the debtor rather than income earned. However, if the debt is forgiven or canceled, the amount forgiven may be taxable as income, depending on specific circumstances and tax laws. Always consult a tax professional for personalized advice.

Can a default notice be removed from a credit file?

Yes, a default notice can be removed from a credit file under certain circumstances. If the debtor can prove that the default was issued in error or if the debt has been settled, they can request the creditor to remove it. Additionally, defaults typically remain on a credit report for six years, after which they automatically disappear. It's advisable to regularly check your credit report for inaccuracies and dispute any errors with the credit reporting agency.

Is Everest Debt Solutions reputable?

Everest Debt Solutions is one of the best debt settlement companies. My husband and I had gotten deep into debt almost $80,000 worth since I had my hours cut and my husband lost his job in the construction industry. We were trying desperately to find a solution. We called each of the credit card companies and all but one of them REFUSED to work with us. We looked online for help and with our local Chamber Of Commerce and Everest Debt Solutions was recommended as accredited and a member of USOBA. Our program began in 2008 and so far we have settled almost $65,000 worth of credit card debt. Some of the creditor tactics were a bit harsh however we successfully waited them out and reached settlement for more than half off the balance of the account. On specific creditor settled for 20% of the balance after only 9 months which was outstanding. I would recommend Everest to my friends and family and surely to the WIKI community.

What is the difference between secured debt and unsecured debt?
