Will going on a DMP adversely affect my credit report?

Consumer Credit Counseling Service of Greater Dallas
A credit report is a track record of your previous credit history, among other things. It shows how you've repaid your debts in the past, including the good with the bad. If you are struggling to make ends meet, skipping some payments and being late with others, your credit report is already dinged. Nobody should consider going on a debt management plan who can successfully service his debts on his own. However, if you need a professional to intervene for you, turn to CCCS.

Will a DMP hurt my credit rating?

Consumer Credit Counseling Service of Linn and Benton County...
It is very possible that a DMP could hurt your credit rating. Any time a creditor receives an amount less than their monthly statement requests, the creditor is very likely to report the account as delinquent. Because these payments are going to be made for many months, it is possible for the negative rating to have a cumulative effect. Your credit score is also affected by the amount of available credit you have.

Why does magnetism adversely affect a watch?

Renaissance Watch Repair - Frequently Asked Questions
If a mechanical watch is exposed to a strong magnetic field, its parts can become temporarily magnetized. When this occurs, there is no longer free movement of the balance and the watch can no longer run properly. Often, adjacent coils of the hairspring will "stick" to each other when magnetized. This has the effect of shortening (or stiffening) the hairspring which makes the watch run very fast, if it will run at all.
