Anyone have experience with a credit card company that went bankrupt and was taken over by the FDIC like Advanta recently was? Will the FDIC use Advanta's collectors to try to collect, 3rd party collectors, or sell the debt to junk debt buyers, or what?


I expect that they will sell the portfolio off to a third party. Based on some of the other posts around the web some are settling for 50 cents on the dollar so that's what's I'm going to offer. I stopped paying months ago and credit damage or not, I'm going to go for a settlement especially after they rate jacked most everyone up to the 30% range.

Got contacted by phone by a company saying they were the one to work with on continuing my payment program. I asked to verify who they were in writing via fax or letter. They were polite (of course i am current on the "hardship" program) and said they would send over a fax....havent heard a word in two weeks.
