“Almost half of all consumers were three months or more behind in their payments. The major culprits are credit and store cards followed closely by unsecured debt. The only measure of relief for consumers who are in over their heads is the
legally-binding system of debt review”
Neil Roets, chief executive of one of the largest debt counselling companies in South Africa, Debt Rescue
