Negotiating a lower payment is one way to pay off your credit card debt at a lower cost.

If the collector can't prove you owe the debt and that they are authorized to collect on it, they can't legally continue collection efforts. ...Read Full Post

Know Your Rights With Debt Relief Companies

In October 2010, the Federal government passed a law to end many of the predatory practices that debt relief companies engaged in. Notably, most for-profit debt relief companies, that includes debt settlers and consolidators and credit counseling agencies, can't ask you for an upfront payment and they must disclose all costs and negative consequences upfront. ...Read Full Post
