Emily asked:


I’m in about $4,000 in debt and was considering a debt reduction service. I heard that you have to file for bankruptcy to complete them. Is this true and what all is required to follow through and complete a reduction service. Is it worth it?

i am having a very difficult time paying down the balances that I owe on my credit cards. I’ve tried calling them up myself and negotiating the interest rate, but they refuse to lower it. I can barely afford the minimum payments and just want to be done with this. I don’t want to file for bankruptcy, I’m just looking for other methods of helping me eliminate this debt that I carry. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
