If the collection agency has the permission of the credit card company to act on their behalf you may be face with a law suite to acquire assets you have to satisfy the the debt as well as and the fees of the litigation, most cc cards have abertration clauses in them you may want to check.. It would be wise to seek a licensed general or civil attorney in your area on the laws as they do vary from state to state. I collected for a agency for 15 years as a American Express account handler. On large balances anything over 1500.00 we did go to litigation with it. What I would tell client/debtors is to make a written arrangement and send the first pay with it stated on the money order by us excepting the money order with reasonable terms it's became a binding agreement that you agree to and made in good faith (again the laws vary from state to state). Most like account resolved with in six month at the most. So that may mean for you tightening the belt on the extra to get ride of the debt.
