Credit Tip: How to Deal with Debt Collectors
September 132009
When dealing with a collection agency, the most important this is to stay quiet. Say as little as possible. Ask for information about the debt in writing — they are required by law to comply. This gives you time to research your options.

Maxed Out takes viewers on a journey deep inside the American style of debt, where things seem fine as long as the minimum monthly payment arrives on time. With coverage that spans from small American towns all the way to the White House, the film shows how the modern financial industry really works, explains the true definition of “preferred customer” and tells us why the poor are getting poorer while the rich keep getting richer. Hilarious, shocking and incisive, Maxed Out paints a picture of a national nightmare which is all too real for most of us. Great for college students.
