I know the biggest problem "back then" (about 5 years ago) was that most so-called debt counseling/consolidating services were actually owned by the credit card companies that were ripping you off in the first place. It's great to hear there's now some protection and regulation of this industry. My sister used CCCS, which I’m pretty sure is one of the legit ones.

She was employed part time and going to school full time. In three years she became debt free and learned a lot about budgeting. She claimed it was a life saver. She was able to pay her bills, not get hasseled and focused on her studies. I had a roommate in graduate school who went through this type of a program.
