Can you lessen your credit card debts?

You can through debt settlement, but you will also ding your credit score. Now there is also credit card negotiation, which is negotiating a deal to lower your credit card interest rates. This process will lower your interest rate, lower your minimum payment, and allow you to pay off your debt faster. This is a much better alternative to debt settlement. Hope this helps.
