Trusted Ways to Manage and Overcome Debt Problems in Alberta

Debt problems can happen to anyone in Alberta, and the one thing debt problems have in common is the huge stress, worry and sleepless nights they cause. If you’ve got a problem with debt, let us help you find the right the solution so that you can sleep better and not worry about your money and bills anymore.

How to Overcome Your Debt Problems

When you’re considering how to overcome serious debt problems in Alberta, the best way is to tackle them sooner than later. Waiting and hoping that things will get better means that you will probably end up with less options available to you in the future.

If you’re not sure what to do or where to start and you’d like some guidance or information, feel free to call us or anonymously chat with us online. We’re happy to answer your questions or help you make an appointment to speak with one of our accredited Counsellors confidentially. There is never any charge for our appointments, and we don’t obligate you anything.

Our friendly, professional Credit & Debt Counsellors will help you get your finances back on track with a realistic plan that’s broken down into practical steps. Here is some of what they can help you with:

  • Creating a spending plan to make sure all your debts and household bills are taken care of
  • Showing you what you can begin doing right away to start addressing your debt problems
  • Exploring options that will allow you to pay back your debts or find alternative options to filling for bankruptcy if you can’t reasonably afford to pay back all of the debts you owe

Serious Debt Problem Warning Signs

Sometimes someone may experience a sudden improvement in their situation which will allow them to get back on track without needing help from anyone else. However, if you’ve been battling debt problems for over a year, then pay attention to these warning signs. They often reveal more serious debt issues.

To determine if you could use some assistance getting your debts back on the right track, ask yourself:

  • Is stress from your debt making it more challenging to manage everyday life?
  • Are you no longer getting ahead making minimum monthly payments?
  • Has your bank or credit union turned you down for a debt consolidation loan?
  • Do you need your line of credit, over draft, or credit cards to ensure you can make ends meet every month?
  • Are you receiving collections letters and phone calls?
  • Are you embarrassed to let others know about your financial situation?
  • Are worries about money keeping you wake at night?

If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, then you probably need help to deal with your debt, eliminate it, and get your financial picture back on track. Call us and speak with one of our experienced Debt & Credit Counselors today.
