jbirnbaum 10 Posted January 26, 2008 Report Share Posted January 26, 2008 For a prestigious national newspaper, I am writing an assigned story on debt settlement. I would like to interview, by telephone, folks who have had experiences settling credit card debt either on their own, with an attorney, or by hiring a firm. Looking for good experiences, bad experiences, or anywhere in between -- just looking for the facts, with the aim of helping all consumers understand the benefits and pitfalls. Interviews have to be on-the-record, meaning I have to put your name in the paper; I may also ask if we may take your photo to run along with the story. Everyone will be treated respectfully by me. If you are interested, please email me at peartree@post.harvard.edu with your name and phone number.Thank you for your consideration, Jane B. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

hopelesscred 22 Posted January 26, 2008 Report Share Posted January 26, 2008 you will find very few folks using firms to settle here...and regarding settling on your own, no one is against paying an OC as long as they agree to modify the debt listing Quote Link to post Share on other sites
