Q: Pulled credit scores through myFICO, and I have 752 and 779. I have 5 relatively small credit card balances, all under $1,000, and one large one for $17,800. I want to settle with credit card company for around $3,000. If they accept this offer, I would be able to quickly pay off the remaining credit cards. Will a credit card company settle if I have never been late with payments? I do not want to stop paying to preserve my scores. Right now, I am only able to pay the minimum monthly payments, and at this rate it will take forever. At the start of 2010, my salary dropped by $16,000 and I have lived from paycheck to paycheck. And things can get even tougher for me. So here are three questions,
– do I have any chance to settle with credit card company with no late payments?
– should I write a letter, go to the branch, call?

Bad Credit Unsecured Loans
Although you will see loans advertised as bad credit unsecured loans, there really is no such thing in the literal sense. Yes, you can get a loan with bad credit even if you don’t own your own home to put up as collateral, but you will need something to prove your creditworthiness which can be a challenge if you’ve suffered with debt problems in the past. When bad credit unsecured loans are advertised that is because consumers feel they need some real property to put up and that isn’t always the case.
