Debt Handling Solutions
Introduction:
Debt can sometimes feel overwhelming. Whether you're already feeling the pressure or want to prevent it from escalating, it's crucial to return to the fundamentals. Here are some effective debt handling solutions.
Key Strategies
Basics
1. Lower Insurance Deductibles:
Consider reducing deductibles on your homeowners, renters, and vehicle insurance policies. This can lead to significant savings.
2. Avoid Bounced Checks:
Protect yourself with overdraft protection. It usually costs about the same as one bounced check fee, but covers you for an entire year. Ask your bank about packaged account services that offer benefits like free savings and checking accounts, overdraft protection, and online bill payment.
3. Be a Smart Shopper:
Always check your receipts, even for groceries, as items often ring up at incorrect prices. Some stores have a no-error policy, meaning you might get items for free if they're priced incorrectly. Use a calculator or notepad to keep track of your expenses.
Reach Out
1. Address Medical Debt Carefully:
Before considering charging medical bills to a credit card or refinancing your home, explore other options. Seek legal counsel and notify billing parties about your financial situation. Many healthcare providers have financial aid forms, which, although lengthy, can offer significant help. Set up manageable payment plans for remaining balances, even if it's just $10 a month.
2. Return Unnecessary Purchases:
Return recently bought items for refunds if possible. Most credit cards and mail order companies allow a 30-day return window. If items are faulty beyond the return period, initiate a letter-writing campaign. Contact the place of purchase, manufacturer, distributor, Better Business Bureau, and your state Attorney General’s Office to demand a refund. You have allies in these entities.
Conclusion
Prevent debt from spiraling out of control by taking decisive action. Implement these strategies to regain your financial footing and maximize your resources.
