Getting Your Teeth Pulled Or Dealing With Credit Card Companies – Which Is Worse?
Despite a federal law passed a few years back requiring credit card companies to provide easier-to-read notfications to its customers and to limit the fees they can legally charge customers who are overdue in paying on their account, these companies are very clever and ruthless in the manner in which they seek to collect outstanding debts from cardholders.
One of the things they count on when they send customers delinquency notices is that the customer won’t know how to respond. If the customer fails to respond to a court summons, they may be able to obtain a default judgment against that customer and then use that judgment to attach or seize the cardholder’s property or garnish his or her wages. Even if they do go to court, if unrepresented, they may lack the expertise to effectively represent their own interests.
