If I settle with credit card companies to reduce balance owed how bad will it hurt my credit vs filling ch13 bankruptcy?


Rate This Answer

Credit Card If you settle your credit will be hurt but not as bad as bankruptcy affects it. With a settlement program, you're asked to stop paying your creditors until you save enough to make a lump sum settlement. Moreover, you may settle your bills only after your accounts are charged off. Due to late payment or charge-offs, your credit score takes a hit. ChaCha on!
