Successful Debt Bargaining
I read this article written by an Atlanta BK Lawyer in Atlanta. Not sure how valid the advice is but if it’s true then its very interesting advice.
As a practical matter, this means that the credit card company will not negotiate with you at all until your unpaid balance is at least three months old. Once a debt falls into the 90 day past due column, the collection percentages go way down. This is generally the ideal time to start your negotiations.If you let your account go much longer than 90 days unpaid, you run the risk that the credit card lender will turn it over to an outside collection company or send it to a lawyer for lawsuit. These options may or may not impact your negotiation strategies, but they add complications and unknown elements. You can always start new negotiations with one of these new account owners later - at the outset it is best to negotiate with the actual credit card company.
