Debt consolidation companies

I'm looking to obtain a list of (credit card) debt consolidation companies where I can take out a lower interest loan that can then be used to pay off higher interest credit cards.

I want to be able to contact these companies directly without having to go through another company like Lending Tree who will charge a fee to refer me to a another company that will provide me with such a loan.

Please provide me with a list of such companies, websites, or offers that will allow me to do this.

I'm not trying to avoid paying any of my credit card debt.

All that I'm looking to do is to consolidate my credit card debt into a single a lower interest rate loan that will then be used to pay off higher interest credit cards.

The main thing I am trying to accomplish is to get as low of an interest rate as possible while also avoiding paying a fee for a company like Lending Tree to put me in contact with a bank or credit union.
I think you could do your own local hunting and not use Lending Tree. Look up Credit Unions near you and visit a couple. That will help you immensely.

John,

Thank you very much for the suggestion about using a local credit union.

I checked with a local credit union and they were able to approve me for a loan with an APR of 6% lower than the online companies with no origination fees or other restrictions.
@Knowledgeable - Thank you and that is very Good News!.  I am glad they were able to help you, and good luck going forward.
