Cambridge Life Solutions Announces Client Graduation

Cambridge Life Solutions Client Graduates from the Program in less than 6 months. Saves over $30,554.65 over 72.28% | Cambridge Life Solutions Proven Results

July 26, 2011
Cambridge Life Solutions proudly announces client graduation from the program. Cambridge Life Solutions successfully negotiated $42,254.65 in debt down to $11,700 as payment in full. The client saved over $30,554.65 off of the balances they owed. The client saved over 72.28% and received the fresh start they desperately needed; all achieved within a 6 month program.

Had the client continued to make minimum payments on this debt, it would have taken them over 29.32 Years and they would have paid over $88,788.72 in principal & interest; based on a 19% interest rate.

Cambridge Life Solutions capitalized on the "bulk settlements" method and achieves the greatest savings on behalf of their clients.

Cambridge Life Solutions provides this analogy: if asked to buy only 1 apple compared to someone who said they wanted to buy 300 apples, who do you think would get the better price per apple? Usually the person buying the greatest quantity gets the greatest savings. The same rules tend to apply for Cambridge Life Solutions.

If a person contacts their creditor and asks to settle their $10,000 balance they might on average get 15 - 20% off, saving $2,000 dollars overall. That person would still need to pay $8,000 back to their creditor. Now imagine Cambridge Life Solutions contacts that same creditor mentioning they also represent 100 clients holding that same card, each owing $10,000 and all together collectively owe $1,000,000 outstanding! Typically that creditor is going to offer Cambridge Life Solutions greater savings; in the range of 40 - 70%, maybe even more.

The methodology is simple because it's a win-win for Cambridge Life Solutions clients and their creditors. In the analogy above each client could end up saving over $7,000 each and the creditor is pleased because they received $300,000 in overall outstanding debt owed between 100 clients as payment in full. "Buying in Bulk" or "Settling in Bulk" is a very effective tool Cambridge Life Solutions uses to achieve the greatest savings on behalf of their clients.

BBB Business Review

Cambridge Life Solutions wishes to become an accredited Better Business Bureau (BBB) member. Currently Cambridge Life Solutions cannot become an accredited Better Business Bureau (BBB) member as determined by the Better Business Bureau (BBB) for the following reasons:
BBB Business Reason for Rating


Cambridge Life Solutions simply needs to wait for the Better Business Bureau's (BBB) seasoning period in order to apply for accreditation membership. Cambridge Life Solutions is only a few months away from being able to apply for membership with the BBB. The length of business requirement does not take into account unfortunately that the management team of Cambridge Life Solutions collectively holds over 25 years of experience in the debt negotiation and finance industry. Cambridge Life Solutions respects the wishes, rules and guidelines outlined by the Better Business Bureau (BBB) regarding membership and Cambridge Life Solutions looks forward to the day where we can proudly display our accreditation and the Better Business Bureau Seal. Cambridge Life Solutions is extremely confident that if the length of time was not a factor, Cambridge Life Solutions would hold an "A" rating with the Better Business Bureau (BBB.)

Cambridge Life Solutions Claims Check Out | Review - Canada

Cambridge Life Solutions Canada - Proven Results - Actual Settlement Offers

Credit card and collection companies may make claims that they do not work with Cambridge Life Solutions Canada. Even most of our competitors that offer other financial hardship programs such as credit counselling or debt consolidation want to discredit the debt negotiation program and the services Cambridge Life Solutions Canada offers.

Here is the reality, for those Canadians struggling to make minimum payments month after month or for those who are not able to make a minimum payment at all, their debt has a strong possibility of outliving them. Unfortunately, some credit card and collection companies will target those Canadians who owe thousands in debt and have high daily compounding interest rates of 19%, 20%, 25%, or even 32%, and use fear, intimidation, and, sometimes lies to keep their customers on the same path they have always been on, which only leads to stress and a life destined for indebtedness.

At this point, you are probably wondering why credit card companies, collection companies, and competitors would use these tactics. The answer is simple. Paying your minimum payments makes the credit card companies a lot of money, but so do Credit Counselling and Debt Consolidation programs because you still pay a daily compounding interest rate!

Don't take our word for it, let us put our money where our mouth is and support our claims with the following examples.

Example A: Making Minimum Payments

John has a balance of $20,000 that he owes on his credit card. His credit card company charges him a 19% daily compounding interest rate. Making just the minimum payment, he will have to pay $516.67 each month.

At this rate, paying only the minimum payments it will take John 34.42 YEARS to pay back over $51,072.75 in interest and principal!

Example B: Credit Counselling or Debt Consolidation Loans

John decides to work with a credit counseling or debt consolidation company. They contact his creditor and are able to decrease his interest rate from 19% to 7%.

John is very excited about this, except after doing the calculation he realizes that even at a 7% interest rate it is still going to take him over 5 Years to pay back more than 25,018.27 in interest and principal.

Example C: Cambridge Life Solutions Canada Debt Negotiation Program

John enrolls his account with a balance of $20,000 into the Cambridge Life Solutions Canada debt negotiation program. Cambridge Life Solutions is able to negotiate a settlement offer with his creditor based on his budgetary analysis and financial hardship. John approves the settlement offer and accepts because he only has to pay back $13,000 which not only includes the settlement amount paid to the creditor, but also any fees associated with our service. Oh, and he was able to pay off this debt in less than 2 Years!

John saves over $7,000 in just the principal. NONE of the programs above can save you on the principal of what you owe!!!

Compared to Example A, John saves over $38,072.75 in principal and interest and doesn’t have to stress for the next 32 YEARS about how to pay off the debt.

Compared to Example B, John saves over $12,018.27 in principal and interest and eliminates his debt 2 YEARS sooner than other programs.

Pushing the Limits

Eleanor Roosevelt said "Do one thing everyday that scares you." We agree and think living by this mantra is a great way to challenge yourself and continually grow. Take a second and think about the things you want in your life, but don't currently have. Take those dreams and turn them into reality by breaking down your goals into daily activities that will always move you closer to the end result. The idea is to pick a small adjustment for the week, then another and another. It can be big or small, but the goal is to make it so that it is realistically achievable. For example, if you feel you need to lose weight, your goal shouldn't be to lose 100 lbs in the next year, you should take it one week at a time. The first week decide to drink more water, then the following week eat only 1/4 of the portions you were before, then the week after that you add in exercise. This way you're not overwhelmed with trying to accomplish too much at once and feeling like you have failed just because you couldn't keep up with the demands you put on yourself.

The same goes for your debt situation. If you are really dedicated to becoming debt free. It is a process and it will take time. Doing nothing will be overwhelming and you will feel like a failure at times. Taking it week by week and making small changes will have you where you want to be in no time. You could try saving $20.00 one week by cutting out coffee stops, then try saving $50.00 the next week by cutting out coffee stops and using coupons, and so on. Before you know it, you're saving enough money to start paying off those debts and live the CamLife!

There is no better feeling than accomplishing what you have set to do. It may be a process but Cambridge Life Solutions is here to help along the way!

Top 10 Credit Card Myths Dispelled!

Word of Advice: College Freshman should not get Credit Cards!!!!

I know, I know, it's your first day on campus and you feel such a sense of freedom. You're walking around, exploring the campus and there is a big booth covered in your school colors. They are offering a free school sweatshirt just for filling out this paperwork...SCORE!!!! The free sweatshirt is very awesome, but the credit card you just applied for, not so much. Most college freshman don't have a lot of money and it's as it should be. By going to college, you are sacrificing and making an investment into your future. You might think that by applying you'll just see if you get the credit card but won't really use it. Trust me, that's not the way it works. Next thing you know, your friends are begging you to come on a spring break trip with them and your pulling out the credit card to pay for it. After graduation, you will be working so hard just to pay off your creditors and you won't have time to focus on building a strong financial future. Trust me, the free sweatshirt isn't worth it, stay away from those credit cards!!!

Great Question! Should we burn RRSP to pay off credit card debt?

We get this question all the time. It's not just in relation to RRSP, but any sort of stock accounts, equity lines, debt consolidation loans. There are several aspects to consider. First, you have worked hard to build your retirement accounts. Don't touch them! They are for retirement. Don't touch your equity lines, that will cause an unsecured debt to now become secured and debt consolidation loans are just making it easier for you to accumulate more debt. There are plenty of other ways to eliminate your debt without tapping into these alternatives.

Make sure you do your research and are aware of all the pros and cons to each method of getting out of debt. Every situation is different and only you can make the choices that best fit your needs.

Here is a real life situation and the advice they received.

Part VI: Guidance and Support

We've reached the last of our six part series about eliminating debt. The final piece of the puzzle is Guidance and Support. This time in your life and the decisions that you face are not easy. It's important to have someone you can open to about your debt. Sometimes it's a spouse, parent, or best friend, but most times it's difficult to be completely open and truthful about your situation. Cambridge Life Solutions offers an open forum where you can discuss the good, the bad and the ugly of your situation. Everyone from our Debt Consultants to our Customer Service Team cares about creating the best solution for your specific financial hardship. Not every situation is the same, so when Henry your Hairstylist says his Mother's, Best Friend's, Daughter-In-Law's, Aunt got out of debt by filing Bankruptcy, maybe that was the best option for her, but not necessarily you. The point is Cambridge Life Solutions is here to listen and to offer the guidance and support you need to LIVE THE CAMLIFE!!!!

Part V: Financial Education

"Develop a passion for learning. If you do, you will never cease to grow."
Anthony J. D'Angelo

Education is power. Becoming educated about credit cards, budgeting and basic finance is so important. The more knowledgeable your are about finances and what is occurring in the financial world around you, the more empowered you are to make sound financial decisions. Become educated about everything you do...from going to the grocery store to buying a house...spend wisely. If nothing else, use what you are currently going through as a learning experience and use it to make better decisions in the future. If you are parent, start NOW with your children. It's never too early or too late!
