Is your Debt Counsellor Registered?

Being overly-indebted is not the end of the line, and does not need to define your financial status for the indefinite future. There is an effective, alternative approach to overcoming your debt problems, through the process of Debt Counselling. Before tackling your over-indebtedness through the Debt Counselling process, you need to ask yourself one important question – is your chosen Debt Counsellor Registered with the National Credit Regulator of South Africa (NCR)?

Make sure that you are making use of a reputable Debt Counselling service that is compliant with the National Credit Act, and is performing its services transparently. To know if your Debt Counsellor is registered, you can request that they provide their NCR number. The National Credit Regulator (NCR) is responsible for ensuring that legal and approved Debt Counselling practices are being offered by industry professionals, for the protection of vulnerable consumers. If for any reason you are questioning the legitimacy of your Debt Counsellor, submit your concerns to the National Credit Regulator directly to be certain. The Debt Counsellors Association of South Africa (DCASA)’s aim is to ensure streamlined Debt Counselling services, aligned with the proper processes and guidelines, and can also assist you if you find that your Debt Counsellor is not approved.

If your Debt Counsellor is not registered or acting in accordance with National Credit Regulator approved processes, you may not benefit from protection from legal action that is offered to consumers while undergoing Debt Counselling, even though you might believe you are safe. Your assets could still be repossessed and you could find that your time and money have been wasted on an inept service that has done nothing to improve your financial situation, reduce your debt or lower your monthly payment instalment amounts towards your existing debt.

Debt Counselling should allow you to regain control of your finances, by consolidating all the debts that you owe into one reasonable monthly repayment that encompasses all that you owe, and is collected and distributed by a Payment Distribution Agency (PDA).

Our services are delivered legally, through a trusted and comprehensive Debt Counselling process where all expenses are disclosed and all steps line up with those put forward by the National Credit Regulator.

At Debtco Group, we offer a reliable and result driven Debt Counselling service to struggling consumers.
