Get free unmotivated advice from a financial counsellor

Unlike financial advisors, financial counsellors offer free confidential financial advice and support through community, government, and legal centres.

The benefit of financial counselling, aside from no cost, is that you can be sure the advice you are receiving is from a skilled professional and not given with ulterior motives such as selling you a financial product for a commission or financial gain.

Financial counsellors can help with;

• Debt and bills including tax debts
• Managing debt collectors
• No insurance after an accident, theft, or house damage.
• Evictions and utility service cut-offs.

Implementation and cost

• Call the free national debt hotline 1800 007 007 to speak to a free professional financial counsellor.
• Find a free national counsellor near you using the MoneySmart financial counsellor map.
