They hunted me down and tried to collect for a while, and I avoided (a lot of you have been there), and I now it's kinda serious. Apparently the juice was running the whole time, and I owe appx $10,000 to $12,000. I just started back in school and am using loans for the time being. I have SOME cash in the bank... until Jan then I get a little more but some of it is going to school and living expenses. I do pretty ok still with things on teh side, but my taxable income is like $500 a month. Last years taxable income for the year was $5000. Taxable .

I never had much credit and the little I did is messed up now. I am thinking of just starting a clean slate and filing. Anyone have any experience with this before? What do you all think?
Go for it all they will do is bill you...and the new rules for bankruptcy won't protect you like they did in 2004.

It wasn't serious. I just think its amazing how well they must screen people. And its not like a Chase card... its super high limit AMEX Business shit.
