Paying only the minimum monthly payments required to keep your credit card debt serviced means (thanks to those interest amounts) even a small balance can take years and sometimes decades to pay off.<\/p>\n<p>Scrutinize your budget to see how much more you can reasonably afford to pay each month. Only being able to make minimum payments (or slightly more) can be a sign of a debt problem escalating; if you\u2019re far from being able to make real progress with meaningful payments it may be time to look into other options for dealing with the debt and ending the \u201cnever ever\u201d cycle of minimum payments.<\/p>\n<p><u>Tip<\/u>: Check the back of your monthly credit card statement to look at the breakdown of how long it will take you to reach a $0 balance if you only make minimum monthly payments \u2013 you may be surprised at just how long it can take and find motivation to make extra payments if possible.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sands-trustee.com\/blog\/not-all-is-created-equal-when-it-comes-to-debt-breakfast-television-vancouver\/\"><em>Not All Debts are Created Equal \u2013 Learn More<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li><strong>Take a Break from Using Your Cards <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Continuously using your credit card for new purchases is a cycle that needs be stopped in order to pay off the debt for good. Check your credit card statements regularly if you find yourself continuing to use your credit card to try to pinpoint what might be putting you overbudget.<\/p>\n<p>Regular reliance on cash advances, payday loans or using credit to bridge the gap between wages and cost of living (including debt payments) is a sure sign of a debt problem coming to a head and it\u2019s best to get advice from a Licensed Insolvency Trustee as soon as possible to stop the debt cycle from escalating.<\/p>\n<p><u>Tip<\/u>: Try curbing the temptation to overspend by carrying cash for day-to-day purchases &#8211; you may find yourself more hesitant to spend if you can physically see your money. If you are going to use your credit card, only do so for purchases that you already have the cash for so you can pay the new balance off right away and avoid interest charges.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li><strong>Focus on the Interest Charges<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Because so much of ongoing credit card debt involves interest charges, even a 2-3% drop in your interest rate can help you in paying off your credit card debt sooner. If your balance is reasonably low and you\u2019ve never missed any payments, consider contacting your lender to ask if they can give you a better rate, or even whether it makes sense to transfer the balance to another card.<\/p>\n<p>If you have multiple credit cards, once you\u2019ve reduced your interest rates as much as possible, you will want to focus on paying off the credit card with the highest rate first. While continuing to make your minimum monthly payments across all credit cards, add the extra money in your budget to that highest interest rate card\u2019s payments \u2013 once it\u2019s paid off, move those additional payments to the next one.<\/p>\n<p><u>Tip<\/u>: Debt consolidation financing generally offers a better interest rate than credit cards and can reduce your costs of carrying the debt, but avoid the temptation to take out more than what you need if it\u2019s offered to you as a line of credit. Be aware that if you\u2019re already overextended, don\u2019t have an \u201cideal\u201d credit score or an asset to pledge, bank-funded consolidation can be difficult to qualify for.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sands-trustee.com\/blog\/getting-debt-without-bankruptcy-three-debt-consolidation-options-canada\/\"><em>3 Types of Debt Consolidation \u2013 Learn More<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<ol start=\"4\">\n<li><strong>Know Where to Get Debt Help<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Many people try to pay off debts on their own and it can feel discouraging if your efforts aren\u2019t showing progress.
