I turned to Consolidated Credit Counseling Services of Canada when I knew I couldn't dig myself out of my debt on my own. I was rejected by the bank for a consolidated debt loan and was feeling helpless. Because of Consolidated, I’ve managed to gain control of my debt and pay it off in a realistic time frame. I am so appreciative of them!

Christina L

You helped me when no one else would! I’ve managed to move forward in dealing with my credit issues. Consolidated Credit was quick to help me deal with my creditors which lifted a huge load off my shoulders. All I can say is thank you consolidated credit!

The counsellors I’ve worked with have been very understanding and helpful. There’s no judgement but an intention to help us get back to zero debt.

JoAnne

Making the call to start the process to get back on my own feet was not just financially helpful but helped my mental health as well because I was always stressed! Now I have control again, sleep better and I’m moving forward. Everyone has been supportive, kind and helpful.
