I'm disabled and my husband is retired. We have very low income. Our credit card debt is about 100.000.00. We stopped paying creditors. So far they call all day and ask for money. How long they will be call? What happens after few months if they not received payment? What will be the next step what they can do to us? Our house, no market, is worth less what we own to the mortgage company. Please give answer. Thank You. DAN.

A credit counselor can get the rates lowered and also cut your bill in half. Search the internet, Care One, is a good one. They can definitely help you. Good luck!

I would recommend that you try to work out some kind of repayment plan with the cc companies if they are willing. However, if they refuse, you may want to consider filing for bankruptcy since you are unable to pay of the cc debt and do not have income the cc companies can go after. Also, if you have been disabled for 24 consecutive months you may be able to have the cc debt discharged if you have disability protection on those accounts. Good Luck.

RE: I Can't Pay Off My Credit Cards
If the $4,000.00 is from credit cards if you do not pay eventually the credit card companies will sue you. And if you pay the 25% on $4,000.00is $1,000.00 and then you debt is $5,000.00 and add another $1,250.00 for interest that is of course less any payments made. Filing Bankruptcy under Chaper 7 would discharge those debt and give you the protection of the automatic stay which after you file means those creditors cannot contact you again. Forget the debt consolidations, just add more debt in terms of fees.

I am currently using CareOneCreditServices for my debt reduction program. It's over the internet, but free (if you can't afford to "contribute"). They managed to cut my interest rates down from 25% to 8%, so that I'm actually paying the principle amount.
Their website is: https://cesi.careonecredit.com/Home.aspx

You don't have to pay for anything on those links below- they are free and the forums are great for help. Don't pay anyone for what can be done yourself with effort.
You will be glad you did

I was in the same spot you are. I was being harrassed so much by creditors that I was becoming badly stressed and not helping my medical problems. I finally went bankrupt. I had to pay the attorney a little each month for the amount of only $250 to go bankrupt. There is no shame in going bankrupt, you ran up the bills at a time you could pay them. You cannot help what's happened since then. I urge you to go ahead and do it. You'll sure sleep better afterwards. I know I did.

You want to go with a Consumer Credit Counselors affiliate agency. They are a non profit agency and most credit card companies will honor their plans. They will help you set up a repayment plan that stops/reduces interest on the cards as long as you pay each month. Here is a website for the Dallas affliate: http://www.cccs.net/
As far as the calls go you can and you should tell them not to call anymore. By law if you tell them that they must stop calling. They can still send letters but no calls. If they call again after you have told them not to report them to the FCC.

Get the Sunday paper and in the glossy coupon pullouts, there are always ads for 0% interest with a new card. If you don't qualify (I don't know the terms) give your local credit union or bank a call. They may be able to set up a loan and their interest is much lower.
Never, ever pay for debt restructure or anything like that. Find your local Consumer Credit Counseling and they will help you for FREE.
Best to you

RE: I Can't Pay Off My Credit Cards
Stacey, I assume from the disability amount you get that you are on permanent disability. This means a couple of things...your income is not going to change unless you get HUD housing and get a big break there....so you will never have enough to make the payments the credit card companies want you to pay. The good news is that they can't do much about the lack of payment. Disability can not be attached to pay a debt.
So you have a choice at this point, to not pay anything, or write a letter explaining your situation, and make whatever small payment amount you can. Your credit is already messed up, and with that low disability income, it is not likely anyone will give you credit again. The credit card companies are going to want to know what payments they can get, since they are pretty much stuck at this point.
I am sorry to hear you are on disability at such a young age, that is a tough break. Email me if you would like, I have some other stuff to tell you. Levada vadarada@yahoo.com
