Terms of Service

1. Agreement to Terms

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the fixdebt.in website and debt relief services (collectively, the "Services") provided by fixdebt.in ("we," "us," or "our").

By accessing our website or using our Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, please do not use our Services.

2. Description of Services

fixdebt.in provides debt relief services to individuals in India, including:

• Debt Consolidation: Assistance in combining multiple debts into a single payment with potentially lower interest rates.
• Debt Settlement: Negotiation with creditors to reduce the total amount of debt owed.
• Financial Consultation: Advice and guidance on managing debt and improving financial health.

Our Services are advisory and negotiation-based. We are not a lender, bank, or credit repair organization. We do not provide legal or tax advice.

3. Eligibility

To use our Services, you must:

• Be at least 18 years of age
• Be a resident of India
• Have the legal capacity to enter into binding contracts
• Provide accurate and complete information about yourself and your debts

By using our Services, you represent and warrant that you meet all eligibility requirements.

4. User Responsibilities

When using our Services, you agree to:

• Provide accurate, current, and complete information about yourself and your financial situation
• Promptly update any information that changes during the course of our engagement
• Cooperate with our team and respond to communications in a timely manner
• Follow the debt management plan agreed upon with our consultants
• Make payments as scheduled according to your program
• Inform us of any direct communication from creditors
• Not engage in any fraudulent or misleading conduct

5. Fees and Payment

5.1 Consultation

Initial consultation to assess your debt situation is provided free of charge with no obligation.

5.2 Service Fees

If you choose to enroll in our debt relief program, fees will be clearly disclosed before enrollment. Our fee structure is performance-based, meaning we typically charge fees only after we successfully negotiate a settlement with your creditors.

5.3 No Upfront Fees

We do not charge upfront fees for debt settlement services before we have successfully renegotiated, settled, or otherwise changed the terms of at least one of your debts.

5.4 Payment Terms

Detailed payment terms, including fee amounts and payment schedules, will be provided in your enrollment agreement. All fees are in Indian Rupees (INR).

6. No Guarantee of Results

You understand and acknowledge that:

• Not all creditors will agree to negotiate or settle debts
• The amount of debt reduction varies case by case
• During the settlement process, you may receive collection calls and notices
• Your credit score may be affected during and after the debt relief process
• Settled debt may have tax implications (forgiven debt may be considered taxable income)
• Creditors may choose to pursue legal action during the negotiation process

7. Credit Score Impact

You understand that participating in a debt settlement program may negatively affect your credit score. Accounts may be reported as "settled" rather than "paid in full," which can remain on your credit report for several years. However, for many clients, the long-term benefit of becoming debt-free outweighs the short-term credit impact.

8. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law:

• fixdebt.in shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of our Services.
• Our total liability for any claims arising from these Terms or our Services shall not exceed the total fees paid by you to us in the twelve (12) months preceding the claim.
• We are not liable for any actions taken by creditors, including but not limited to lawsuits, wage garnishment, or asset seizure.
• We are not liable for any tax consequences resulting from debt settlement.

9. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless fixdebt.in, its officers, directors, employees, and agents from any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from:

• Your breach of these Terms
• Your violation of any law or rights of a third party
• Any false or misleading information you provide
• Your use or misuse of our Services
