Most people who are down in the dump are looking out for credit card debt relief. They have been blowing up their plastic money and have now been caught unaware due to the recession. They are now trying their best to locate companies who can arrange reliable debt settlements.

Most of the debt relief companies are in the business of debt settlements. An Internet search will take you to hundreds of results to choose from. You will not know which company to select. Beware of scams. This is very fertile ground for scamsters. There are sure signs of scams and you need to take care to avoid them.

The first thing you need to do is visit the website of your state or district and look for the Better Business Bureau. The bureau will provide information regarding recognized companies. Once you have narrowed down to a few companies check for their antecedents. Always select a company through a debt settlement network. You can look for companies who have been accredited by The Association of Settlement Companies. Another place to look for companies providing debt settlements is International Association of Professional Debt Arbitrators (IAPDA). The association is known to have verified more than 20,000 businesses. They also follow a strict code of conduct and are well known for their ethical practices.

After getting down to just two or three companies you must look for user reviews for these companies. So in all likelihood a company is a member of a settlement network and boasts of large number of users could be genuine. As a last resort you can talk to the users and learn about their experience with the company. So go ahead and select a renowned company that arranges debt settlements.

There has really never been a more advantageous time for consumers to try and eliminate unsecured debt. Creditors are very concerned about collecting and most have government money to make eliminating some of your debt financially feasible.
