I know this question has been asked many times but I seem never to get a honest answer. I would like to someday refinance my house when my credit is higher. Is belonging to this company hurting me??

Well drillboy, the simple answer is debt managment doesn't hurt your credit. It won't prevent you from refinancing your mortgage.

When you enroll for a debt management program with a credit counseling agency or debt mgmt company, the company negotiates with your creditors for a reduction in the rates and hence monthly payments. This is to make sure that you have no problems in paying off the debt. If you keep making on-time payments in debt mgmt program, your credit score would get better with time.

You can get a detailed explanation of debt management program from "http://www.debtconsolidationcare.com/debt-management.html" .

Good luck
