The magic points are a way to reward us to post and share our knowledge. Each post earns points, 5000 points = $50!
There are a few threads in the announcements section if you want to read more about it. |

| Glad to see that you have found your way here and have developed some friendships here, we have all found ourselves in situations that have some how become out of control, here we can all discuss it and find some resolution, what works for one may work for many, we can exchange ideas and ways to work through things that have become so stressful and seems to be out of control, in reality, it is manageable, we just have to talk it out and come to a plan to resolve it. that is possible here. |

| That is exactly what I am looking for. Have some old debt out there and was still continuing to get letter and phone calls so I thought I would read thru some of the posts to see how people was dealing with situations like mine. I believe it is past statutes but I don't know when the statutes of limitations changed from 6 years to 4 years here in PA. I haven't quite found the exact answer I am looking for although I did ask it on another post. Maybe you could help. If I aquired a debt back in 2000 and the statutes at that time were 6 years (I don't actually know this) and the state somewhere along the lines changed it to 4 years does the SOL run out at 4 or 6 years? I don't know if they go by the ones that were in effect at the time of the credit card or the new ones. A few years ago I checked it and thought that I had seen PA was 6 years at the time. I considered then paying off the debt but it became so astronomical. I $300 credit card turned in $1700 so quickly. There was suppose to be a one time beginners fee on the card of $99. Then a year later they charged me $99 and threw the card over the limit with. They wanted everything over the limits of the card, plus over the limit fees and so much more. A payment I was unable to make at the time. They wouldn't let me pay any less and so I sent in what I could but that just added even more fees since I didn't pay the amount they wanted and agghhh so on and so on. |

You can try a settlement. Beyond the SOL your debt is no more payable legally but the debt stays. _________________ Keep in touch

| Yes I have got that understanding from reading on this web site. I would not try settlement for a couple reasons. !. The pay off is so high and I can not afford to pay it. 2. Making a payment would from what I gather reset the SOL. The debts are to clear off my record by Auguat of this year. Thanks anyway. |
