A painful and costly accident

Angela recovered physically, thanks to surgeons. She recovered financially, thanks to Consolidated Credit
“Accidents happen,” Angela says. “But this one was a doozy.”
Angela was driving in her brand-new car with her daughter when it happened. In fact, she had just made her first monthly payment on her auto loan.
She was only a mile from her Pennsylvania home when “a woman just turned in front of me,” she recalls. “She hit right at my daughter’s door. We were both seriously injured and had to be taken by ambulance. It was bad.”
Through her insurance company, Angela sued the woman.
“My lawyer, who I trusted, told me to put all my medical bills on my credit cards because I didn’t have the money up front,” she says. Her lawyer reassured her that she could pay off her balances with the settlement he’d win for her.
But for various legal reasons, the woman couldn’t even be sued.
“To my surprise and dismay, there was no settlement,” Angela says. So she was stuck with $90,000 in medical bills after two surgeries. As she slowly recovered physically, she tried to recover financially. But she faced double trouble: She lost income from not working, so she maxed out a total of 14 credit cards.
Calling Consolidated Credit…
Despite her best efforts, Angela was left with $35,000 in debt. She knew she needed help. Since her attorney had already failed her, she sought professional help that wouldn’t fail her again. She scoured the internet. What sold her on Consolidated Credit was its long history of excellent reviews.
“I read some of the reviews, and that’s when I decided to call,” she says.
Of course, she was skeptical, so she peppered the certified credit counselor with questions about how Consolidated Credit works. Satisfied with the answers, she decided to enroll. So how does she feel now?
“Relieved!” she says. “Consolidated Credit made it so easy. All I did was say, ‘Here’s this card, here’s this balance, here’s this statement date.’ I am so grateful for this opportunity to get rid of those accounts for good – and regain my financial freedom. Honest to God, it’s the best feeling in the world.”
Her life now …
Angela no longer lives paycheck to paycheck. She no longer stresses out about paying bills. “My life has changed a lot,” she says. What was the biggest change? There were two.
First, “I watch my spending. If I do not immediately need it, I do not buy it.”
Second, she bought a new car.
“Call Consolidated Credit,” Angela says. “It’s only going to make your future brighter by taking that step to eliminate debt today.”
