I have a line of credit of $53,000 unsecured with BOA - I have been basically living from paycheck to paycheck for the last nine years since my divorce. I've been living off credit cards and borrowed time. I have accumulated about $40000 from other loans and savings - I just took out a home equity. I want to settle with them for the money I have but am terrified at this point. I live in Vermont which is a homestead state - has anyone had a debt this large to settle and what would they recommend, I can't afford a debt settlement company - I called one yesterday and they wanted $30,000 in administrative fees debtsettlementofamerica - sounds like I owed them. Any suggestions would be appreciated - I've never been late on anything but I feel I'm at the end of rope and I have to do something to get out of this terrible mess - I have approximately $90,000 in credit card debt and I've been paying credit cards with credit cards ... it has to stop and yes, I'm not sleeping at night now.


Heya lost, i'm not certain on this but i think that the only way u will be able to settle a debt for a lesser amt is if ur in default. If all are current i'm not sure they will settle!
but hang tight and someone with more knowledge on this will be around soon to help u with more answers!
Good Luck,
Ang

Boa has been great to work with. I have 2 lines of credit and 4 cc with them. Total of about 80,000. They have offered 25% settlements for all cards. 90 days late on some and 120 days late on the others.

what do you tell them when you talk to them on the phone you have lost job, gambling debt, just dont make enough or what. I hear about all these settlements I scared that they might not settle and then what interest will be so high. A little help please

Wow, you all must have gotten better collections people with BOA then we did. They were viscious. But not quite as bad as the HSBC people. We disconnected our phone after those people got ahold of us. After the first month, then our debt settlement co. was able to stop the phone calls.
