I have two accounts (Chase & Cap 1) that got behind due to pay cuts & unemployment. I am waiting on the paperwork to settle with Chase. My CR will state "settled for less than owed".
The other account that I have to work with is Cap 1. They haven't been easy to try to settle with so far. I now have the ability to begin catching the account up if they will keep interest rate low & wave the lates fees, etc. I can likely come up with the funds to settle for about 40% if they ever agree to it. I am confused as to rather I should settle or go with a hardship plan?
