Hi all,
This is my first post to this site. I have about 10 PDLs outstanding. I closed my bank account since I could no longer afford bills while paying all of the interest. I live and work in PA. I have defaulted about a week ago, and haven't contacted my PDL's yet. I am looking for advice on what to do. How to contact them and what to say. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm so glad I found this site.

Talk to your lenders. Tell them that you are interested in paying off your debts. You want to review your latest balance in writing.
