Scheduled for Arbitration

I received a notice that my case ( being sued by Capitol One) is scheduled for arbitration. I am not sure what I should do now. I was reading that arbitration is not such a good thing and that it would be better for litigation before a judge. Can I appeal the arbitration hearing and request to have my case in litigation?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Make them prove their claim against you, ask for the original contract you signed, nothing less, no contract, no claim. In my opinion arbitration is a rip off.

I sent them and the courts my intend to defend notice and also included a request for Validation of Debt and Production of Documents supporting their claims. That was last week. In the meantime I received this document that my case is scheduled for arbitration. Is the arbitration hearing going to be me, the credit card company and some sort of litigator? Should I just go to the litigation hearing and tell them I want proof of their claims? Do you think I should object or appeal the arbitration hearing and request litigation?

Always demand proof of the claim, if they have not provide you with the documents you requested, dont not admit to anything until they do.
