I have been doing continuous research here on the boards since early August, and I appreciate every single thing I have learned from you guys.
I have a decent attorney and we will be seeing her again on the 26th for final paperwork.We will file for chapter seven on November 9th after waiting for the over $1000.00 dollar a month payments to amex to fall off the 90 day look back, as well as my last very small charge on August 7th.
So far I had answered the phone every few days, but honestly I am just sick of it. There is nothing new to tell any of them, and chase and Amex are pretty aggressive, as others on here have noted. So I quit answering the phone after last Saturday and just let the anwering machine pick up.
We owe about 94k in all on credit cards which is the reason for the bankruptcy, we just can not pay any longer without putting everything we buy right back on the credit card, so in August I had enough and said no more.
Ok, so chase is now leaving me messages from a phone number that comes in under chase, I need to urgently call them, so they say, sigh, I dont want to. I owe them about 15k.
Amex is the big one, we owe 44k for the regular card and 10k for what was our business card, They are calling several times a day leaving urgent messages, that are getting more insistent that my husband must call by the end of the day. These are cards under his name.
So far wells fargo and BOA just call with no messages from wells fargo, although now it looks like FIA services is calling for BOA to offer me a great financial deal to help us through our rough patch.
Am I going to be able to make it to our filing on November 9th without these guys getting a lawsuit going?
I am scared to death as we owe Amex so much that I fear we will never get away from them. Our lawyer saw all of this on our paperwork and never even blinked an eye about the amounts.
Does anyone think this is going to be an issue with the Amex debt so high, nothing frivolous at all, just living on the cards? I do not want to talk to these guys any more on the phone, I am ready to just unplug the phone til we get filed.
We had seen another attorney before we settled on our current one, and he said in his forty years of practice, here where we live, which is a small town, he has only ever had one adversarial proceeding and it was due to him filling the paperwork out wrong, so he even felt we had nothing to worry about.
I guess, after reading everything on here, I am not the only one concerned about these issue, but it is tearing me up pretty bad inside with the constant worry.
The bad thing is we had a business failure two and a half years ago and refinanced our home to try and pay off the majority of the cards and rebuild ourselves, but due to not being able to find any jobs, and the new payment on our home being so high, you can guess the rest.
I think I am rambling now, but appreciate any thoughts.
