77% of American households have at least some type of debt and paying it off can feel overwhelming. Or even seem impossible. Credit card debt is especially difficult to manage because in addition to the balance, you also need to pay interest every month you donβt pay your credit card in full.
What is credit card debt relief?
Credit card debt relief is when a company negotiates with each creditor on your behalf to reduce the amount you owe. In exchange, you agree to immediately make a lump sum payment to settle the debt. Donβt be surprised if you save 50% or sometimes even more.
While credit card debt relief isnβt the only option, itβs an excellent choice to pay off your debt in as little as 24-48 months. Before Lindsay decided that debt relief was right for her, she considered bankruptcy and making minimum payments. But, according to her, βIf I was paying just the minimums on my credit cards, it would take 15 years for me to pay it off. And If I wouldβve filed bankruptcy, it would have stayed on my record for 7 years.β
When Lindsay called National Debt Relief, she says, βI was getting paychecks and the paycheck was gone and there wasnβt anything extra. I couldnβt get ahead. Being a single mom, I wanted to be able to take care of my kids. I just couldnβt see a solution.β
How does credit card debt relief work?
Rather than paying your creditors, youβll deposit a monthly payment to a FDIC-insured Dedicated Savings Account under your name. As the funds build up over time, a specialist will begin negotiating debt settlements on your behalf to reduce your credit card bills down to a fraction of what you owe. As your accounts are paid off, they will be reported on your credit score as a zero balance.
According to Lindsay, βYouβre paying less or the same amount every month that youβre used to, but itβs going towards something that has an end date. Every month I wasnβt paying my credit cards, it was just compounding interest. National Debt Relief has no upfront cost. You make the call, they work with you, and then you have your plan.β
How did credit card debt relief help Lindsay?

In Lindsayβs situation, a National Debt Relief specialist worked with each of her creditors enrolled in the plan to negotiate down the $25,000 she owedβwhich made her monthly payments more affordable and manageable. Once they worked through all her credit card accounts, she was back on the path to financial health.
As she says, βWhen I looked at the cost of debt relief, I was actually going to save money in the end. From a monthly perspective, I wasnβt taking on any more debt. In terms of timing, it was going to be paid off in four years.β
Lindsay is one of the hundreds of thousands of clients at National Debt Relief who have paid off their debt, taken back control of their finances and moved forward with the rest of their life. You can, too.
βBecause of National Debt Relief, I have financial freedom. Itβs so empowering, and Iβm excited to start the next phase of my life.β
