lls. I got behind when I had to decide on paying the doctor treating me or my credit card bills, (I opted to pay the doc) so I could get good care. Once that happened, I got slammed with late fees, which took me over into over limit fees, and a whole bunch of other nonsense. I stopped paying, couldn't deal with it and the treatments. Now I am better, and while I have not returned to work, am hoping to soon. I have these bills from the credit card companies, but now they are so ridiculous, I can't hope to ever pay them back. I know I messed up, but I feel I really had no choice but to do what I did, and now I want to pay these off and move on with the rest of my life. Whats a good way to start? Should I try and negotiate these bills down to what I actually owed? Or am I stuck paying these ridiculous fees they have slapped all over it? 1 company turned a $250 debt into over $2000. Anyone who can help or been there and came out of it, please feel free to help! Thank you!
