If you are getting disability or social security, credit card companies cannot garnish your wages. However, the judge can issue liens against your property.

The bank will keep sending you reminders, but if you still refuse to pay, then the bank or credit card company will take you to court, and then if you cannot pay them in money, they will repossess items from you to the value that you owe. Or if you still cannot do that, then you may be declared bankrupt, all debts written off, but obtaining any credit in the future (credit cards, mortgages, loands) will prove extremely difficult, nay impossible.

What does a credit card debt settlement work and how does it affect my credit?

Usually, they contact the cc company. Negotiate a lower rate. You pay the settlement company directly instead of the cc company. The effect varies depending on the cc company and the credit report company. It may say that the account is in some type of deliquency despite the fact that you are paying it off. It may just say the account is closed and show your balance (which still lowers your score because it increases your debt to credit ratio since you have a balance despite no credit available.) It won't be horrible on your report though. You can still have good credit despite doing this.
