According to a survey by Serasa Experian, residents of the state owe about R $33 billion in debts, with credit cards being the main villain in this alarming scenario. Across the country, 70 million Brazilians are in debt, while the total debt exceeds R $300 billion – record numbers.

Indebtedness mainly affects people between the ages of 26 and 40. As a way to alleviate this dramatic situation, Serasa Experian is holding a Clean Name Fair until March 31. More than 400 companies are already registered and offering incredible discounts – up to 99% – to renegotiate debts, in addition to installments of up to 72 times.

The official channels for negotiation are the website, the app, and the WhatsApp of Serasa Experian, along with partnerships with the Post Office agencies. Therefore, it is time for Brazilians to unite to face this financial crisis that plagues our country and seek quick and fair solutions to clear their names and recover their financial security.
