    Credit card debit
    Have a chase credit card I am unable to pay minimum and at this time they are not will to set a budget payment plan with me... my concern is that chase now has bought out or taken over the bank I have my checking with and I am concerned that my definency will be taken without my consent from my account because they are now one.
    Can they do that?

    Someone else posted this and the answer was yes. I'd move the checking account if you are attempting to shield it.

    Of course, they'll eventually get a judgment against you and collect by other means but that is in the future.

    Yes, and if they see you have a large amount in checking will wonder why they are not being paid more

    Tell the agency it's been settled, paid in full/final settlement. Ask for their mailing address and send them a copy of your papers.

    Inability to pay is not a defense; having already paid it in full, in agreement with the creditor, is a defense.
