DEBT MEDIATION

The head of FNB’s debt review department once told

Debt Counsellors at the Debt Review Awards Gala that

an organisation called the National Debt Mediation

Association was set up by credit providers (many years

ago) to try divert consumers away from the legal

protection of debt review.

of many Debt Counsellors. If consumers have a problem paying their

debts then they need to approach a Debt Counsellor and avoid anyone

advertising this type of “mediation” online.
