Credit Card Debt

The credit card debt in the United States is predicted to reach One Trillion Dollars this year.  It is very tempting to use credit cards to pay for things that are not really necessary.  Sometimes, we use credit cards for food or gas, which are necessary, but the high interest rates continue to increase the monthly balance, and the monthly payments become more than can be paid.  If your credit card debt gets out of hand, and you are facing law suits and judgments which will result in a garnishment on your paycheck, you may want to consider filing for either a Chapter 7 bankruptcy or Chapter 13 bankruptcy.  Chapter 7 bankruptcy can eliminate debt altogether, and Chapter 13 bankruptcy can help make payments more affordable, and stop the interest from building on your accounts.  Although filing bankruptcy will probably result in losing the credit card, it is a better idea to pay for things in cash.  Also, it is always a good idea to try to save a little of your paycheck each time you are paid to take care of emergencies without having to run up your credit card debt.

Fair Debt Collection

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau , a branch of the federal government, proposed a massive overhaul of the debt collection industry .   If you have debt that you cannot pay, you have been contacted many times by bill collectors, and at all times of the day and night.  Quite often, this forces people into filing either Chapter 7 bankruptcy or Chapter 13 bankruptcy .  Debtors complain to state and federal agencies about unfair or deceptive practices by collection agencies.  The new proposed rules would make debt collectors go through extra steps to prove that a debt is valid before beginning collections.  The debt collectors would be limited to no more than six communication attempts per week, and the hours of approved contact would be more limited.  If a consumer disputes the debt’s validity, the proposals would require the collectors to provide clear and easy way for the consumer to challenge the debt.  Some consumer groups do not think ...
