Yes. Most DMPs include an initial set-up fee, as well as a monthly fee, the amount of which is based on the size of your debt payments and your state of residence. However, you may be eligible for reduced or waived fees. Ask your counselor for more details.
You can still benefit from a debt management plan even if you've become delinquent on your credit card accounts. Depending on the creditor and the severity of the delinquency, your accounts may even be considered current after a certain number of DMP payments.
MMI is not a credit repair service. We offer advice and educational materials to help you build a positive credit history. Following this advice may result in a significant improvement in your credit score over time.

We offer a variety of financial counseling services. The length of the session will vary depending on the issues being addressed, but most typically last between 45 and 90 minutes.
Most counseling and education is provided at no cost. We have a few select low-cost services and there are fees associated with using our debt management plan. However, you may be eligible for reduced or waived fees. Ask your counselor for more details.
A debt management plan is not a loan. You simply make a single payment each month which is dispersed to all your creditors. You will continue to receive monthly statements from each of your creditors.
You may see a dip in your score immediately after beginning your DMP, with a dramatic improvement once your debt is repaid in full.
All of our counseling sessions are completely confidential. We will only contact your creditors if you decide to begin a DMP, in order to set up your repayment plan.
