Credit Debt?

credit debt
Donald F asked:


I have under $5000 in debt, and I want to make payments, but the payments I can afford, are not even covering the interest I am being charged. This debt was written off as bad debt, and killing my credit along with my debt growing. Does anyone have ideas in ways to get this debt lowered, by negotiating? The majority of the debt came fom Capital One and the agency who now has the account said that they will not negotiate a payment plan with me, per Capital One’s requirements. They will work with me on a payoff, but I cannot afford the payoff. Any ideas out there?

Unknown asked:


I have to pay my credit card bill by today 10/12.

I was hoping there was a way to immediately pay it off. The Bank of America BillPay says it will deliver the payment tomorrow.

Tomorrow, unfortunately, is too late…

Any help would be wonderful!

credit debt
A.J. G asked:


I have some cash and want to improve my credit score. I have an IRS tax lien for about the same amount as my outstanding credit card balances. What would be a better action? Should I pay off the tax lien, currently on installment, or should I pay off credit card debt?

if you stop paying your credit card bill, will the bank negotiate a lower pay-off amount with you?

pay credit card bill
natona asked:


Would it make sense to do this instead of filing Ch 7 bankruptcy?
My friend told me she stopped paying her credit card bill and they finally negotiated her balance down to $1200 from $8000.
I’m considering filing ch 7 bankruptcy anyway which would obliterate my credit..
Would this be a BETTER option?
Is it worse or better for your credit?
