The Benefits of Debt Counselling

By Eddy Silveira, Founder and Managing Director at Debt-Savvy

Hi, my name is Eddy, Founder and Managing Director at Debt-Savvy, and today I am going to teach you about the benefits of debt counselling. Here at Debt-Savvy we help people hundreds of South Africans each month with their debts, with over 85% of clients choosing the debt counselling option to formally manage their debts. Debt counselling can help South Africans who can't afford to keep up with their payments. This is what you need to know about debt counselling by Debt-Savvy:

"Debt counselling is a formal and legal process introduced by the National Credit Act in 2007 to help South Africans manage their debts. Debt-Savvy is licensed (NCRDC2530) by government to assist people to apply for debt counselling and each month Debt-Savvy helps hundreds of clients to apply for debt counselling."

Debt-Savvy has mandates with over 90% of credit providers in South Africa, allowing us to quickly extend the terms of your loans if you need help, and reducing your interest rates down to zero if needed. We can speak directly to your lenders and immediately stop them so you can review your finances.
