no, you can not go to jail, unless you did some theft or fraud with the credit card. Now remember if the debt collectors mouth is moving, they are lying, they will tell you on the phone they are calling the police, that they will tow your car overnight, that they will take your house, your mothers house, kill you dog, anything they can to make you pay.

They can in many states sue you in court garnish your paychecks, take all the money out of your bank account and so on.
