Hi PaintedTiger, \n\n Well you have certainly painted yourself into this corner, haven't you now? I know, I know, bad joke, but hey what can I say? You gave me that joke. \n The first thing I would suggest is that you call your creditors and explain your situation and ask for an extension. You would be surprised how often creditors are willing to work out a payment arrangement with you. If you blow them off or wait too long, then you will pay the price. Call them today!!\n  As for your utilities, gas, electric or heat, there are a number of community programs available depending on where you live. I suggest you contact your local city hall or maybe the library and ask for assistance. If your in a cold climate I know there have been a number of oil assistant programs. Check on those if needed. \n  Well I hope this info helps and please keep a positive attitude, because in the grand scheme of things, this is no biggie, no smallie either.

I'm in the same situation right now.  Try to get a bridge loan.  You won't have to make any payments for up to 6 months. I hope this helps.

I would go to your labor board and turn him in. I would also look for another job. What he is doing has every indication he is having financial problems and I would bet won't be in business much longer. Do this right away before they close down.

Try paying your bills on time for a while.

If you paid part of the bill then you should be fine. You need to call the office & let them know when you can have the rest of the payment & go from there. Just hope you're not in a cold climate.

I would check on line first to see if there were any thing there for free to at least help out some.  Sometimes there are clinics that will work with you on payments as well.

If you are now up do date on your payments, and it has been awhile since you became up to date, you can always try a goodwill letter to the creditors. Tell them that you have worked hard to become current, it has been x number of years, can they please list the accounts on your reports as never late.\n\nIf you are still behind on the bills or the accounts have been charged off, thats a whole nother ball game.\n\nI would suggest going to the site that I've listed. It is a "free" do it yourself credit repair site. \n\nThere is no sense paying for anything or anyone to do what you can do yourself. Especially since alot of those credit counseling places will leave you worse off than you are now.

Im in the same boat as you. I have bad credit and debit. I for me figure get a 2ed job pay off all my bills save save save then try for a loan when the bank sees no more debit you have a better chance. I'm starting a business now, well it's already in the books but need more money to fund it.

Well, if the facts are as you've described you should consult an attorney regarding the filing of a wrongful termination suit.  Of course, if the company can't pay its bills what's the point?\n\nFile for unemployment -- if your former employer is stupid enough to contest appeal to the Labor Relations board in your state/community -- and find a better job.

contact some good business in the same area.\ncompanies can also save for this kind of help on taxes, so hopefully you'll be able to get some company to help them.

Unemployment Office helps! Then I'd check your state offices to see what sort of services they can provide!

hope you would solve your problem  soon,,you are not alone..\n\nHave to work double time and plan your budget...    pay all the small bills first, limit your habit , check your budget before spending.. the more debt you have the  more you pay for interests... you can make it..   slowly but surely... .goodluck !\n\nif you can't, ask someone to help you that is good in budgeting like close friends... or families...

You can try the Salvation Army.  Years ago I know they used to pay one month rent, one electric bill and one phone bill.  It would catch you up.  I think they still have this program.  It wouldn't hurt to try.  Good Luck

Forget about companies helping you..the government will help you for free!  Go to your local unemployment office in your area and they will do their best.  Good Luck!

I know how you feel. I suggest you ring them and explain that you can't afford to pay. You're broke! You just can't do it!\nThen they may offer a solution. \nIt really isn't up to them but they want to help if they can find a way to get your money.\nJust say you can't afford it and leave it at that.\nGood luck. Stand your ground.

The most important thing you can do is pay your bills on time.  After that try to reduce your outstanding debt, even if it is a little at a time.

Just paying a few dollers each month will put you in good standings credit wise. All you need to do is let them see you are making a little effort also if you need assistance you can go to your local human services and they could help you get some assistance. Good Luck cause I know how it feel I got overian cancer and had no insurance now I have thousands of dollers in bills. It seems like they never stop mailing you bills but like I said just show them a little effort.
