Expanded Support During the Economic Crisis

(PRWEB) November 3, 2009 — During the ongoing economic crisis, many people continue to struggle with rising debt. As a result, Credit Card Management Services, Inc., doing business as Debthelper.com, has expanded its reach to serve more consumers.

Recently, Debthelper.com received licensing approval in the State of Missouri. The Consumer Credit Section of the Missouri Division of Finance granted the license under the Missouri Debt Adjusters and Collection Agencies Law (Chapter 425 RSMo). Therefore, the organization can now legally provide debt adjustment services within the state.

Immediate Relief for Consumers Behind on Payments

For consumers who have fallen behind on their accounts, a debt management plan can offer fast relief. These plans often reduce monthly payments and lower interest rates. In addition, they may stop late fees and over-limit charges. Accounts may also be re-aged, which helps improve payment status.
