Help needed to get a loan to pay off credit cards

can anyone help!!!!
i currently have 5 or 6 credit cards with large amounts on them and the interest is crippling me to a point were i have missed payments, if i could get a loan i could pay them all off saving me a fortune each month. Because of my late payments and/or the fact im a serving member of the military im unable to get a loan.....any ideas would be appreciated

    My first advice is to NOT get a loan... please post your SOA on here and let us have a look at how we can help you - it might be a DMP is the way forward for you depending on how this might affect your career? You should be able to contact someone within the military - I think from memory there is some support already in place that you can go to.
    I really really would not advice consolidating - unless you are unlike 99% of us here then it won't work and in a year you'll be in deeper trouble than you are now :)

    Post us your SOA and we'll have a gander :)
