How should we proceed?

8 years ago
Hello! My daughter has a medical bill of $4000 which has been sent to collections. Prior to informing me of this debt, she made arrangements of $150/month and has made two payments. She is now in some financial straits due to a lay-off from work coupled with other credit accounts and bills, and has asked my help. My first thought was to suggest she contact them by mail, have the debt validated and posture herself to negotiate for a reduced balance on the account (was thinking 25% is the magic number.). Has she shot herself in the foot by making payment arrangement and making payments?

 

Any idea about Green Trust Cash?

8 years ago
Hello, I had to recently take out a $500 payday loan in September to help pay of my rent. I am currently paying $20 on my premium weekly (bringing my weekly payments to $82). I called the loan company to see what my remaining balance for the loan was. I still have a $568 balance. I can not afford this unfortunately and it seems that this has just put me into a larger hole of debt. I also just was made aware that in the state I live in, payday loans are illegal. I found a lender named Green Trust Cash online that is not based in the state of ct (where I live).

How can I pay back credit cards on which I was scammed?

8 years 1 month ago
Hi, I live in centraila WA. I got scammed with a credit card in my name with Wells Fargo and I owe $5,000 on it. They somehow got into my Key bank account; so now, I owe them $600. I also live on SSI and I only get $565 because I have to pay SSI back from Job Corp like $30 a month. I do have a job but I maybe get 100 every month. So I need some help to figure out how to pay both banks. SSI just takes $30 out before they give it to me.

 

Help with Tribal

Hi, I keep seeing in posts that you say follow the links in your signature for steps to follow with Tribal Lenders, but I can't find that link. I'm sorry to message you directly, but I'm desperate. I've gotten myself into a horrible bind and I don't know what to do. how do you find out if loans are Tribal? Should I close my bank account? I saw an article that they were taking people in Texas to court for not paying.
