I have been in a
debt counseling program since 2/2004, and have less than a year to go. One account, however, has been charged off by the original credit company, and has switched companies several times. The original debt was $3200, and I have paid nearly $2900 on it, but they are now saying that I have additional $1500 in interest and fees so I now owe about $1900. They offered me a 65% settlement on this account, which I could possibly afford.
