How to Find Good Local Credit Counseling

eHow:

  1. Interview several agencies to choose a qualified credit-counseling service.
  2. Ask each agency if it is a nonprofit organization, what services it offers and how much the services will cost you.
  3. Find out if its counselors are certified and if the agency services are confidential.

  4. Inquire as to how soon a counselor can take your case.
  5. Request that the agency send you information about its organization and services. Any reputable credit-counseling agency should send you free information. If not, consider this a red flag and go elsewhere for help.
  6. Check with the attorney general's office or a local consumer-protection agency to find out if consumers have filed complaints about the provider you are considering.
