Disposition: Satisfied/Released
Broker Comment: IN 2006 I MADE A MAJOR CHANGE IN MY BUSINESS MODEL AND BORROWED $500,000 FROM LINES OF CREDIT THROUGH MY BANK AND CREDIT CARDS. BY THE END OF 2009 I HAD PAID APPROXIMATELY 60% OF THE DEBT. AT THE END OF 2009 THE CREDIT CARD COMPANIES CHECKED MY CREDIT AND SAW THE AMOUNT OF REVOLVING DEBT. EVEN THOUGH MY CONTRACTS GUARANTEED MY RATES WOULD NOT EXCEED 6% TO 7% THEY CLAIMED A CLAUSE ALLOWED THEM TO RAISE THE RATES TO AN AVERAGE OF 25% WHICH CAUSED THE PAYMENTS TO BE A MINIMUM OF $4,500 MONTHLY WITH THE MAJORITY GOING TO INTEREST. I CONTINUED TO PAY, BUT THE DEBT WAS NOT REDUCING. ON 11/15/11 I HIRED A GROUP OF ATTORNEYS TO DISPUTE THE DEBT. THE ATTORNEYS NEGOTIATED A REASONABLE AMOUNT WITH EACH DEBTOR, WHICH I PAID OFF IN FULL.
