Pittsburgh, PA – Advantage Credit Counseling Service has recently been licensed by the state of New Jersey to be able to provide professional credit counseling services and debt management services to consumers who live in NJ. Advantage CCS is a Non-Profit Credit Counseling agency that assists individuals through financial education.
In response to the current credit and debt crisis happening right now in America, Advantage CCS has been rapidly expanding their business reach and obtaining license/approval in many US states to better help those people who are in financial distress. Free consumer credit counseling is a time-tested method to help individuals get back on their feet when financial problems arise.
A certified credit counselor works with the individual to create a custom spending budget and to find out if a Debt Management Program (DMP) would be right for them. The highly trained and certified credit counselors at Advantage CCS provide free credit counseling services and can work with the creditors to reduce the client’s monthly payment. They may even be able to make late fees disappear and reduce interest rates, depending upon the creditor’s approval.
