Vom Unternehmen geschrieben
Debt is stressful. We understand. Family Credit Management is a nonprofit organization that has been helping individuals and families get out of debt and regain financial stability for over 30 years. Our NFCC-certified credit counselors provide personalized, one-on-one guidance to help clients understand their financial situation and take control of their future. We offer a range of solutions tailored to each individual’s needs, including traditional Debt Management Plans (DMPs), debt settlement options for those who may benefit, and our exclusive DualTrack Repayment Plan, which combines structured repayment with strategic settlement when appropriate. For clients who are unable to repay all debts at once, we also offer our Priority Pay Plan, designed to help manage limited resources while addressing the most urgent financial obligations. Our approach focuses not only on resolving debt, but also on long-term financial health through budgeting, education, and behavior-based strategies. As a nonprofit credit counseling agency, our mission is to provide honest, practical solutions that work in the real world. We work directly with creditors to help reduce interest rates and fees when possible, while supporting our clients every step of the way. At Family Credit Management, our goal is simple: help people reduce stress, regain control, and build a more stable financial future.

Have had a great experience
Have had a great experience. Everyone has been kind and understanding of my situation. I am glad to be able to communicate through email instead of having to find time for a phone call to customer service. The whole process has helped me regain control of my finances and my creditors have all worked with FCM, including payday loan companies.

Not having to carve out time for another customer service phone call is something a lot of people can appreciate.
At Family Credit Management, we know life doesn't always leave a lot of extra time in the day. Sometimes it's easier to send an email when you have a few minutes, reply when it's convenient, or shoot over a quick text with a question. Getting help with debt shouldn't have to fit into a narrow window on your calendar.
It's great to hear that you've felt understood throughout the process. Financial situations are personal, and it can make a real difference when the people you're working with take the time to listen and understand what you're dealing with.
Hearing that you're feeling more in control of your finances is wonderful. That's what this process is all about. We're fortunate to work with a wide range of creditors, including many payday loan companies, which allows us to help people create a more manageable path forward. Thank you for sharing your experience, and we'll be here whenever you need us.
Very easy to do

Thank you for sharing this.
A lot of people are surprised by how simple the process can be. When they start looking for help with debt, they often expect to be pressured into making a decision right away or overwhelmed with constant follow-up.
That's never been our approach. We believe people should have the time and information they need to understand their options and decide what's right for their situation. Life is hard enough without feeling pressured to make an important financial decision before you're ready.
I'm glad the process felt easy for you, and we'll be here if you need us.

Being able to take a deep breath and feel some relief is huge.
I can’t tell you how many times we've talked with someone who thought there was nothing that could be done about their debt, or that getting help would be complicated, expensive, or take forever. Then they find out there are options they didn't even know existed.
I'm really glad you were able to get answers quickly and start feeling that relief right away. Whether someone is looking into credit counseling, a debt management plan, or just trying to figure out the best way to handle their debt, understanding their options can make all the difference.
We're glad you found us.
I enthusiastically recommend Family Credit Management
Choosing Family Credit Management (FCM) was one of the best financial decisions I have ever made, and I can confidently say that working with them has completely changed my path toward debt relief. After being on their Debt Management Program (DMP) for over two years, the results have been nothing short of exceptional.
From the very start, the team at Family Credit Management provided incredible support. Certified Credit Counselor Erica Reyes-Smith helped me establish a possible course of action, assuring me that the Debt Management Plan was a great fit for my financial future. She provided invaluable resources, including budgeting tips and the "100 Ways to Save Big" brochure, setting me up for success from day one. Erica was responsive and helpful, even when addressing my specific questions about removing accounts that already had preferential agreements, which she quickly confirmed was fine to do.
The financial relief provided by FCM is substantial and immediate. The program is designed to save hundreds in interest and allow me to get out of debt in under five years. I was promised "exceptional" anticipated interest rates, and the program delivered, with the lower rates and elimination of late fees shaving significant time off my repayment period. As the Client Services team noted, I survived the challenging first few months and was quickly seeing the benefits begin.
FCM made debt consolidation an affordable and safe path to finally becoming debt-free once and for all. They have provided a clear, manageable plan and continuous support, making the goal of permanent financial success feel truly achievable. I enthusiastically recommend Family Credit Management to anyone looking for a reliable and effective solution to take control of their financial health.

AJ, I talked with Erica after she read your review and jokingly asked if she paid someone to write it.
Seriously though, this means a lot. What stood out most is that you’ve been on the program for more than two years and are still this excited about the results. A lot of people are skeptical at first because lower interest rates, waived fees, and a clear path to becoming debt-free can sound almost too good to be true. You’ve actually lived it and seen the progress for yourself.
We’re so glad Erica’s budgeting resources, guidance, and support helped you feel confident getting started. Taking control of debt is about more than making one payment each month. It’s about understanding your options, having a plan that fits your situation, and knowing you don’t have to figure it all out on your own.
Thank you for trusting Family Credit Management and for sharing your experience. You’ve done the hard work, and we’re excited to keep cheering you on as you move closer to lasting financial freedom.

Thank you for your review. We really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience.
Making decisions about debt and your financial future can feel overwhelming, and it's completely normal to have a lot of questions. In fact, we encourage it. Some of our most successful clients are the ones who ask the most questions because they take the time to fully understand their options and feel confident about the path they're choosing.
For more than 30 years, Family Credit Management has helped people work through financial challenges, and we've learned that no two situations are exactly alike. Taking the time to listen, answer questions, and help clients understand what makes sense for their unique circumstances is one of the most important parts of what we do.
Thank you for trusting Family Credit Management. We're glad we could help and wish you continued success on your journey toward becoming debt-free.

Kim cares deeply about the people she works with, and she was so happy to hear that she made such a positive impact. When you're looking for help with debt, having someone who takes the time to answer your questions, explain things clearly, and help you understand your options can make the whole process feel a lot less stressful.
That's what we try to do every day. We want people to have clear information, a structured repayment plan, and confidence that they're making the right decision for their situation.

Twenty months until you're debt-free. That's awesome.
I'm really glad to hear everything went smoothly and came together so quickly for you. Taking that first step can feel like a big one, but having a debt management plan that provides a structured repayment plan and a clear path forward can make a huge difference. Knowing when you'll be debt-free gives you something tangible to work toward and can bring a lot of confidence and peace of mind.

Stories like yours mean a great deal to us. Life can change quickly, and losing a job is stressful enough without having to worry about debt on top of everything else. We're glad you remembered us and reached back out when you needed help.
We're especially happy to hear that Chris was there for you during such a difficult moment. Sometimes people call us feeling overwhelmed, scared, or unsure of what to do next, and taking the time to listen with patience, kindness, and professionalism is every bit as important as the financial guidance we provide. Chris truly has a gift for helping people feel heard and supported when they need it most, and we're fortunate to have him as part of our group.
Thank you for placing your trust in us again. Wishing you calmer days ahead, and please know that everyone at Family Credit Management is here for you as you continue moving forward.

Hearing feedback like this means a lot to us. One of the things that makes Family Credit Management different is the quality of our people. We're not trying to be the biggest credit counseling agency, we'd rather provide the kind of personal service and attention that feels a little more boutique. That's why it's so rewarding to hear that our team took the time to answer your questions and make sure you felt informed throughout the process.
We know reaching out for help isn't always easy, and we believe everyone deserves honest answers and people who genuinely care. Thank you for giving us the opportunity to help, and we wish you all the best as you continue working toward your financial goals.

I am so thankful I stumbled across Family Credit Management. It has been hands down the best decision to go with them. Before I came across them, I was getting so many phone calls, texts, emails to the point that it was annoying and felt defeated. The difference with FCM is that I was able to communicate with them by text and email. Which worked best for me so that I could respond when I could during work. The process was throughly explained and was such an easy process. FCM has lifted this heavy burden off my shoulders. I’m looking forward to being debt free! Thank you FCM, you guys are fantastic and wonderful!!
