I already settled several accounts, one with Bank of America, $20,000 -+ for $5,500, and a 30% settlement on four Chase accounts; all very nice and understanding people to deal with.
I still have Discover Card (not nice people) and a GE card (now in collections and small accounts), along with the Citi Bank account left.

I wouldn't give them my bank statements if I were you. I would send them a settlement offer in writing and keep at them. I've heard Citi is difficult to deal with but I wouldn't trust ANYONE with my account info.

Thank you, OhioGal. I did not send the bank information - although it does show lack of income, I just didn't feel comfortable doing it. I appreciate the suggestions. Have you dealt with Global/Citi? Would you send the settlement offers to Citi or Global? Global told me it would eventually go back to Citi with their recommendations. I had been dealing with Citi, and they were nice, but could not give me an offer that I could afford; finally, right before they sent me to collections, a guy told me that Citi does not accept offers unless they are in writing, but at that point it was too late.
Again, thank you.

Absolutely positively do not send them your bank statements. What they want to do is tear apart what you are spending and where. They want them to find the money to pay them.
If they ask why you did not send them, tell them that a lawyer you consulted on filing bk told you not to.

Thank you, Debt free to be. I was avoiding their calls, not knowing what to say as to why I did not send my statements...I will definitely use your suggestion.
I read this board every chance I get, and I thank everyone for sharing their knowledge and experiences. I was sinking fast, not knowing what to do, before I found this site. Now, I can actually see some light. Thanks again!
