Maybe Bankruptcy
    #7805591 - 12/27/07 09:17 PM (16 years, 1 month ago)

Does anyone know if an unsecured credit card can take a person to court and take property from them. Will be talking to a lawyer later but was wondering if anyone has experience with this?

My parent's and brother have both declared bankruptcy in the past, and with their and my experience, a creditor will sell the debt to a collection agency. that agency will generally just keep calling and threatening, then sell the debt to another collection agency. However, it wrecks your credit score.

1 credit card, secured or unsecured, is no reason to declare bankruptcy and fuck yourself for the next 7 years. That's how long mortgage companies consider a bankruptcy a "deal breaker"...most other companies too. Good luck.

I was once in dept with two unsecured credit cards.... almost 10 grand. I dodged the creditors for at least 6 years... not answering calls and throwing letters in the trash. Then when i wanted to buy a house i approached a financial advisor on what to do? I was making real money and actually could pay my bills now. My FA instructed me to not make contact with any of the creditors and don't pay them anything. They said creditors have 7 years to collect a debt, and if they don't collect anything in those 7 years the debt is longer valid. My FA said they could try and take us to court but they'd lose. These two creditors taunted my credit report for seven years giving me a credit score in the 500's. But sure as shit when the 7 year mark rolled around these two creditors dropped of my report, i couldn't believe it but they did and my score was now a 650's. I took a few loans out and got another credit card and started building my credit score back up.

Seven years is seven years..... if you can pay the debt back in full do it now. If not it'll be on your credit report for the next seven years weather you pay on it or not! Same as claming bankruptcy!

But to answer your question...... i don't believe they can take personal property from you (that's why it's unsecured) But i do believe they can garnish your pay checks until the debt is payed back. I'm sure all these rules and laws very from state to state.

Thanks for the good vibs.

I have more than personal property. I have rental property.

I not just setting still waiting to talk to the lawyer. Putting a deal together to sell it before it can have a lein put on it.I know it s easyer to hide cash.

I'll say " I bought lottery tickets, sorry I didn't win"
