Who Are They?!OneMain Financial is not your typical debt consolidation company. They offer consolidation loans, but they are more specifically a regular bank. !!With that said, they’ve been in business for a long time and should be considered as one of your options when looking to consolidate debt. !!If you’re looking for more consolidation/ debt relief specific information, you may want to look elsewhere. If you don’t care about the extra direction, then they may be worth considering.!!
