A credit card company will take what money you can pay but don't get behind on payments because that just causes more problems. If you don't have enough money to pay the whole bill, then just pay what you can because a little bit is better then nothing.
No unless you are able to convince them why you can't pay the minimum due. Some are willing to work with you like your own bank credit cards. Others will not. I say that if they are not willing to work with you according to your budget, then sign up for debt management. I am sure there are credit counseling in your area.

Unlike credit card debt, which can be settled for less than is owed, a conventional lender (bank, credit union) is not able to offer a payoff of an amount substantially less than what is owed. Credit card debt has interest added to the amount owed, and then more interest added to that (compounded). Bank loans generally are simple interest loans. Credit card companies and subsequent collection agencies that acquire the debt, are able to settle for as much as 40% percent of the amount owed, because the amount owed is accumulated interest and penalties. This is not the case with conventional loans.
I thought this was illegal. How is the credit card company that is garnishing his wages supposed to collect their money when our account is frozen?
Send a letter to the credit card company. Include all the pertinent information about account numbers and addresses. A copy of your letter of authorization from the court should also be included. The credit card company will then file a claim against the estate for any balance owed.
The credit card statement lists all of the purchases a person makes during the month using that card. It shows the total owed, interest owed, and details about the card and purchases.
