The Cost of Debt Counselling: Is It Worth It?

Many people wonder whether debt counselling is cost-effective. AfriSkuld believes the benefits far outweigh the costs – but let us look honestly at the figures.

Financial Costs of Debt Counselling

AfriSkuld implements a simple fee structure, including assessment fees, monthly administration fees and review fees. These fees are set by the NCR to ensure professional service delivery.

Benefits of Debt Counselling

• Structured debt assistance with a clear path forward.
• Affordable payment plans based on your income.
• Protection against creditor legal action.
• Debt consolidation for simplified management.
• Professional support throughout the process.

The Emotional Cost of Debt

The true cost of debt is not just financial – it includes psychological and emotional impact. Debt counselling addresses both financial and emotional stress by providing a clear plan.

Cost Comparison

Without professional help, clients risk increased interest rates, late fees and potential legal action from creditors – making debt counselling a worthwhile investment by comparison.
