I took out a loan on a car I had and ignored it for a couple of years... they have contacted me and gave me three options pay 65% or 75% or pay an amount down to keep the attorneys off of me... the total amount is 4,700. I guess it is with late fees and interest etc.... they say they will take me to court is that true? or is it just to scare me?

Vincent,
Is this a title loan of some sort?

(1) Yes
(2) Don't pay just to stay out of court unless the money is actually going to the debt principal

I took out a loan on a car I had and because of medical bills etc.. I kept saying to myself well next week and on and on and now I am two years behind. Well they have contacted me and told me that the financial institution sold to them Captiol Management and I have three choices or they will turn me over to their attorney and I will go to court... The amount of monies they want for payment there is no way possible.. So they told me if I send them 462.00 before the end of this month that will keep the attorney's off of me... I want to take care of this but I am only working part time and taking care of my mother..

Have they verified the debt in writing to you?
