I am a widow now since 2005.I have credit card debt & since my husband passed away have not been unable to pay them.
One of the credit card companies has now gotten or sold that credit card collection to lawers to collect.
I just got papers on Monday,01/12/09 done through court in the town where I live that states I need to give those lawyers a response in 30 days.I can't afford lawyers help.
My problem is a similar one I've seen on her.I have a direct deposit bank account for my ss.disability check. It is my only income.There is no other money deposited there but that direct deposit from ss.From what I've read the check is not suppose to be touched by them.Am I right? How do I go about making sure that this doesn't happen without my knowledge & what do I need to do to assure that it doesn't. If they do I can't pay my rent & necessities in life.I receive way less than a thousand a month.I barely get by on what I receive.I'm desperate for help here.
Hope you can advice me somehow.
Thanks
