How Mark and Dawne Got Into Debt

After a series of disasters damaged their home, Mark and Dawne struggled with credit card and loan debt that they couldn’t afford. They went from being able to help other people to needing help themselves. 

“It was just one thing after another. It was tough… We didn’t have anywhere to turn and we didn’t know what to do” – Mark

“We went from being able to supply other people with food without them knowing who did it and to needing the help ourselves and it was a very hard thing for us to do.” – Dawne

Getting Help From Accredited Debt Relief

They tried to get out of debt on their own by budgeting and repayment strategies like the snowball method but it wasn’t enough to take the pressure off and minimum payments barely chipped away at the debt. So, Mark looked online and discovered Accredited Debt Relief. 

After talking to a Consolidation Specialist on the phone he was convinced it was a solution that would be right for them. He felt relieved to find a company that was so understanding and non-judgmental. Working with Accredited Debt Relief saved them over $500 a month which greatly reduced their daily financial anxiety.

“Working with [Accredited Debt Relief] has relieved my stress. I can see a light at the end of the tunnel.” – Dawne

Enjoying Their Retirement Free From Debt

Working with Accredited Debt Relief has given Mark and Dawne financial goals for the first time. They now have a clear debt-free timeline of 48 months on their enrolled debts, a significant improvement from the 27 years it would have taken them making minimum payments. 

They are motivated by their new financial stability and excited to leave a positive financial legacy for their grandchildren.
