Did you know?
Debt review is a process that assists clients who struggle to pay their debts. A debt counsellor will deal with your creditors and make arrangements to pay on your behalf, reducing monthly payments to an affordable monthly sum.
This is to help consumers who are overextended financially, or who will be if they don't get help. Included is a court order protecting assets (house/bond, vehicle or furniture).
What is a PDA?
This is a term you’ll hear when you undergo debt review. Debt payments are made to a Payment Distribution Agent or PDA. In line with the National Credit Act, debt counsellors have to appoint a registered PDA to disperse their client’s payments to their credit providers.
