So, Has Anyone Tried Credit Card Relief Yet?

I'm not in credit card debt, but I need to know. Have any of you broke-ass KATG'ers called for the gravelly old man's credit advice?

mostly, these are subscriber services, you pay them x-amount a month to negotiate with your creditors, this kind of credit reconciliation takes a minute, so these places charge you for every month they are "on the clock". its not a non-reputable type of a place, but they are at least getting you for a certain amount each month for as long as they can stretch you out.

Just ignore the problem and hope the government bails you out.

This is what PMs are for. Since you've opened the door, these services are basically scams for people don't know better.

Interesting.
I do love that guy's voice, though.

this is a public forum. if the moderators dont like what I write then they can ban me. someone asked a question, I answered it truthfully to the best of my knowledge which is first hand since I worked in collections. my description was nothing but honest and legit. so fuck you, and if Im wrong we can work our way back from there.
