Top FAQs About The National Debt Relief Program (2024)

At National Debt Relief we do not earn anything unless we get you results. Specifically, 3 things must happen for a fee to be earned for the service. First, a settlement offer must be received from the creditor, we must receive your approval of the settlement, and finally at least 1 settlement payment to the creditor must be made. Only then would our fee be earned and charged to your Dedicated Account. Once debts are settled, the average client usually pays a fee of 15-25% of the total debt enrolled But, until these 3 things occur, there is no fee for the service.

Depending on your personal situation and whether you have already missed payments to your creditors, debt settlement programs may have a negative impact on your credit score. Due to it being a separately regulated service, we do not provide credit repair services or offer advice on ways to improve your credit.

Debt relief reduces your balance. Your debt is negotiated down, and you pay less than you owe. The creditor forgives the remaining balance in a transaction called a settlement. Debt consolidation combines all of your debt into one loan with a single monthly payment, often at a reduced rate of interest. This typically requires a higher credit score for approval.

Even though a do-it-yourself (DIY) approach might be a good option for home renovation projects and other hobbies, you shouldn’t take any risks with your debt repayment plan. Your financial situation has a long-lasting impact on your lifestyle and peace of mind. At National Debt Relief, we take care of every detail of debt negotiations – helping you overcome the most significant roadblocks that are standing in the way of your financial independence. We have established relationships with over 10,000 creditors and our average negotiation rate is 50%, meaning we usually save you 50% on your debts (excluding fees). Our negotiators know exactly what to say to help each company look for solutions that support your needs — and how much you can expect to save with each creditor. We won’t stop until we’ve reached the best deal possible.

It depends on how quickly you can build up your funds and save for the settlement offers. The faster you save, the quicker you get out of debt. It typically takes between 24-48 months with our program. By contrast, if you only make the minimum payments on your credit cards, you could be in debt for the next 10-20 years and pay back 2x, 3x, or even 4x as much as you originally borrowed.

There is a slight possibility that a creditor might sue you. But, lawsuits are expensive and creditors try to avoid them. We aim to complete the program as quickly as possible to avoid any lawsuits.

Yes! In following the requirements of federal law, we do not complete a settlement unless you approve it. Moreover, we do not collect a fee associated with our efforts to settle a particular debt until you have approved that settlement and made at least one payment. If we can’t settle your debt or if you’re not satisfied up to the point of us settling your debts — for any reason — you can cancel anytime without any penalties or fees other than any fees earned associated with prior settled debts. That’s right! We get results or you don’t pay.

You’ll need to make a conscious decision to stop monthly payments to your creditors, since they won’t negotiate a reduced principal balance if you’re current. This helps establish a legitimate financial hardship for the creditors, giving you the opportunity to participate in this savings program.

Your money will be held in an FDIC-insured trust account. The account will be opened in your name, and you’ll have ultimate control over its funds. The money saved gets disbursed only at the time an agreement is reached with the creditor and you approve the settlement offer.

National Debt Relief programs can save you, in the words of former client Michael D., “thousands upon thousands” of dollars! After all, settling your debt means that the interest and fees you’re currently incurring on credit cards and other debts each month will stop accumulating. That will free up hundreds (if not thousands) of dollars for you to use to pay other bills, purchase a home, or prepare for retirement. And, the fees we charge clients for our program are more than reasonable. Clients who stay with the program and get all their debt settled realize approximate savings of 50% before fees, or 30% including our fees.

Yes! If you’re living paycheck-to-paycheck, carrying high balances on your credit cards, and struggling to make the minimum payments, you’re dealing with unnecessary stress that can affect both you and those close to you. When you enroll in our program, not only will we negotiate down your debt and help you get on top of your finances, but you’ll also find yourself free of the stress, guilt, and worry that comes with overwhelming debt. That means you’ll have time to focus on what really matters: family, career, and enjoying life to the fullest.
