about 4 years ago I wanted to lower our payments and decided to go with Debt Settlement out of Arizona. They really screwed up our otherwise perfect credit because we had to be 120 days at least, late on our various payments. We were overextended and wanted to lessen our monthly obligations. We could pay but were totally stretched to the limit. If I would have known then what I know now we would have NEVER done their program.
Â
We had to give them access to over $1000 in our account every month which they would ‘use’ to work with our creditors to lower our payments.
Â
Little did I know that we had to basically default on our various lines of credit. Legal suits became common and now our credit is a mess.
Â
How do we survive this? Needless to say we cancelled Debt Settlement account after about a year. How long before we can see the light of day. We are not young, 63 and 75….so want to get this under control asap.
Â
Is there a lawsuit with Debt Settlement company that we could participate in so that others don’t get swindled?
Â
Help is appreciated,
