“Dear Steve,
l’m in debt in South Africa and need a debt review.
Good day! How do l tell if a company is registered through NCR to practice debt counselling. How do we avoid scams especially on the internet.

The Answer:
Dear Flo,
In South Africa the National Credit Regulator (NCR) is responsible for regulating debt counsellors. You can find a listing of registered debt counsellors through the NCR website, click here.
I would first make sure that any debt counsellor you decide to work with is registered through the NCR. That will go a long way to avoid most scams.
