Will this hurt my credit?
It can, depending on the route. Debt resolution usually involves
pausing payments on enrolled accounts while they're negotiated, which typically
lowers your score for a time. Credit repair works in the other direction, disputing
items that shouldn't be on your reports. Before you enroll in anything, your
specialist will walk through what it could mean for your credit — the downside
included.
What does it cost?
Talking to us costs nothing, and there's no fee to find out whether
a program fits. If you enroll, fees depend on the service and your situation, and
you'll see them in writing first. The debt resolution programs we present charge no
upfront fees — you pay only as debts are actually resolved.
How long does it take?
It varies more than anyone likes to admit. Some matters resolve in
months; a multi-account debt resolution program often runs a few years. Your
specialist will give you a realistic range for your situation — not a best-case
number.
Which debts qualify?
Debt resolution is generally for unsecured debt: credit cards,
personal loans, medical bills, and some private loans. Mortgages and auto loans are
secured, so they don't qualify. Tax debt and federal student loans follow their own
programs — which is exactly why we offer those as separate services.
Is this a loan?
No. Vertex Resolution is not a lender, and none of our services
involve borrowing more money. We connect you with programs — negotiation, disputes,
repayment plans — that deal with the debt you already have.
