How Does The Advantage Debt Management Program Work?
No matter your situation, the first step is for you to complete a free credit counseling session either in-person, over the telephone, or online using our new mobile-friendly system. This allows us to determine your monthly income, expenses, and creditor payments. After analyzing your financial “picture,” the online system or your certified credit counselor will make practical suggestions to help you improve your money management habits and get you back in control of your finances. If appropriate, the Action Plan and/or credit counselor may also suggest referrals to other community organizations that may be of help.
Once the credit counseling session is complete, if the system or your credit counselor thinks a Debt Management Program can help you, the next step is to get you scheduled for a brief follow up phone call to discuss the program and answer any questions you may have. Your counselor will work closely with your creditors, identifying opportunities to relieve your financial burden as much as possible, putting you back on track toward financial freedom.

Once you’re in the debt management program, you will then be able to make one simple monthly payment to Advantage CCS. This payment will be disbursed automatically to your creditors in the agreed-upon amounts.
This personalized debt management program will get you out from under your unsecured debts in three to five years instead of ten, or even twenty years. Furthermore, because you’ll be making so much progress in eliminating your debts, your unsecured creditors may agree to stop charging late and over-limit fees, and sometimes reducing they will reduce interest rates, all of which saves you money.
On top of financial security, what debt management plans deliver is peace of mind, meaning you will never have to be afraid to answer your telephone again.
