I'm so glad I found this website. For the last 2-3 months I've been educating myself about all the options I have out there and decided to go with a debt settlement company. But when I I found this forum/web I built the confidence on settling my debt myself. I'm currently up to date with my unsecured debts but wont be able to pay any ofmy credit cards this month. I wanted to ask you all when is the best time to call and try to settle my debt with the credit card companies?
