Default Credit Card Killer - Buying Agreements

I have recently noticed that credit card killer is buying up credit agreements like a debt collectionautolinker.com autolinking image agency. Can anyone confirm how this would effect your credit rating?

What costs are incurred?

Administration and Transfer Fee for all Credit Card Debts (Instant)
Each debt £349 per person
Plus a Debt Transfer Fee

10% of debt amount upfront or
20% of debt amount if more than one payment is made ‘contact us for full details’


so 10% of the debt and £349, why not jst of that to the finance company yourself

EDIT

I think the benefit here is it's instant and liability transfers to them so you can wash your hands of any debt. Though I wonder how this would effect your credit rating and how the lender would respond to this.



Edited to remove commercial link

Not paying a credit card is highly likely to adversely effect your credit rating.

I reported that as well. It is fairly late in the night and the people who moderate the site do do it in their spare time. It is not a paid position.
