Are you or someone you know struggling with debt and falling behind on your payments? Are you wondering what happens if you fall too far behind on your credit card payments? Most people know that they can expect a hit to their credit score and phone calls from creditors, but people often believe that since the debt is unsecured, nothing more serious can happen. However, this is not the case.
Ignoring your credit card debt can be very dangerous to your financial situation. In episode 009 of the Fresh Start For Life Podcast, we explain in detail what happens when you fail to pay your credit card debt and what you can do when you find yourself falling behind on payments.
