You don't need a consolidation loan for this. Find some savings in your budget, increase your earnings a little, have a yard sale, whatever, and just get it done.

No, you don't need to spend 7 years paying off a credit card bill. That is merely a calculation of how long it will take if you make only the minimum required payment. But of course, you should be paying much more than the minimum payment each month if you're unable to pay the full balance.
A loan will not be a solution except that you MIGHT be able to get one with a lower interest rate than your credit cards but that's doubtful given you current credit score.
I dont want to pay 19 dollar to bank with only 10 going to principal. bull. I want to maximize my pricipal . i want more of 29 a month to principal . I need better loan where can I get it with 100 percent 7yr payment history.The answers about I recieve are irrelevant. Dont reflect a solution to help .i never applied for loans in 7 yrs .I have no new cards . Only took these when they showed up in my box with intro offers.

Your credit score is 650 which is basically a sub-prime score. That means you will not get good terms on a loan; if you can even get one at all.
You will need to check for prequalifications from lenders like Prosper.com. Good luck.

Hi, Packard.
Because the linked "credit profile" is to Cap1, I'll assume the score you're using is derived from there, thus a Vantage 3.0. This score, while free, is not very useful in gauging one's ability to buy a car, get a CC, or qualify for a personal loan. You should spend $1 here, while it's still working, and get your 3-bureau FICO 08 scores which will much better illuminate your credit worthiness. Once those scores are known, informed recommendations can be made.
There was a time when I thought you could borrow from Peter to Pay Paul, but that is a negative sum game. And while you may get a loan, you are still in debt.
If you owe a $1000 and pay 29 each month and 10 is going to principle and 19 is going for interest. 1000/10 = 100 months to pay so you would pay 100 X 19 = 1900 in interest.
If you owe the same 1000 and pay 49 per month, then 30 is going to principle and 19 is going for interest. 1000/30 = 33.3 months and you will pay 33.3 X 19 = 633.33 in interest.
***Calculations just for illustration, not exact as interest amount will also be going down as balance reduces***.
Make more than the minimum payment every month and add any you spend onto that payment. Soon they will be paid and its this will be a memory.
I suppose I missed the part where the OP asked for a lecture on saving & bill paying -- would someone be kind enough to quote it please?
Message is now re-opened to replies..
I will just remind people to stay FSR which for the most part it has been on this thread, but can be reviewed here:

With that said OP 2k isn't really alot of money owed in the CC world and in my opinion a personal loan or another option isn't the best way to go, but that is your option and do what you think is best. Granted paying interest isn't fun, but money isn't free either. There are many ways to pay back that 2k as 2k can be more to you than others depending on income if you can only afford currently to pay min. payment it is going to hurt more of course. As others stated you can certainly pay more than the min payment and you won't incur near as much going towards interest and be payed off way before the 7 years. Other options is doing a side gig like uber or pizza delivery for a month or two and that debt will be paid off in no time. Best of luck whatever you decide to do
