Did you call the companies and offer some payment arrangements? You might make them work according to your present situation and lower down the interest rates.
Did you enroll for the free counseling here? If yes, a counselor from your area will give you a call and discuss about your debts. He will offer some payment plans before you consider for their debt consolidation services. Take the free quote and know your options.

I tried debt consolidation, and the one place wanted me to pay 800 plus dollars a month. I can barely afford all the everyday bills right now. And plus i am currently separated so things are rough. Any suggestions?

How much is the total debt based on which $800 p/m was fixed. You may take quotes from few other companies and compare each plan.
Ask the dmp company to stretch the plan longer. This will minimize your monthly payments.

Wow! $800 +/- per month seems like alot. I would continue to get quotes. I know that some online companies are not legit and will make as much off of you to provide the service as the companies do with the debt settlement.

There are many debt consolidation companies that are simply concerned with making as much money as possible. They are not bothered about their clients, all they want is to trap worried people and exploit them. It is advisable to do a bit of research work before you contact any debt consolidation company.
