What exactly happens to your credit if you do debt consolidation?

asked:


I have $7,000 in debt and I have heard about debt consolidation. Does this negatively affect your credit rating? Do you get to choose how much you pay monthly or is there a set amount they make you pay? I live in Canada, if that matters.

Myah asked:


We are in our late 50′s have 2 mortgages and all this credit card debt, we were just making it and then my husband had 2 colon cancer surgeries in 6 months, I am afraid of debt reduction because I have heard bad things, and debt counseling would save some, but it all seems so hopeless, creditors are calling me at work and I have a job that would be in trouble if we declared bankrupcy, just let me know I am not alone and give me some honest and good advice..blessings

Best way to consolidate debt when you already have so much they won’t give you anymore?

Brad M asked:


I’m trying to better myself and pay off credit card debt. My credit is good, I just bought my first home by myself. But I wish ot get rid of my credit card debt faster… I have done all I can transferring to lower rate cards. But when you try to pull out a loan to consolidate, they say “you already have too much out”, and I get declined. But that defeats the purpose! I think it’s too soon to do a home equity loan, I don’t have much equity in my home yet. And I really don’t want to resort to a credit counseling agency that can harm your credit! Any ideas or banks, websites, etc. to check out?
