Should I go to court?
Date: Tue, 04/19/2011 - 16:43
I need some advice. I called Zwicker after getting a letter from a third party who said they could help me pay off my account (in default) if I gave them money and they stated that I would be getting a summons in the mail soon for a suit. They said they wanted to help me pay this to avoid court.
Zwicker said they had no idea how this company got that information and told me if I didnt pay a substantial amount (30%) $650 of my balance $7000. and agree to a monthly amount that it would a suit and that the papers were already sent to the court.
The guy from Zwicker wants to take the money from my checking account and said he is going to send an agreement of judgement that I need to sign. All I wanted to do was try to work with them to pay the debt off but the amounts he's asking for are amounts I cannot afford. Do I let this go to court, can they take the money from my accoount with a verbal "ok", or should I agree to make these payments?
HELP! This is the last thing I need with a potential job loss coming. And I don't know what to do.

Never go with anything verbal.....an agreement should be faxed t
Never go with anything verbal.....an agreement should be faxed to you.
Have you received a summons? Has a lawsuit been filed>?
If you do not show up in court they will get their judgment if in fact a suit has been filed.
