I'm working on an ebook regarding credit cards and debt management intended for Philippine audience. Having first hand experience with 5 credit cards, and being drowned with debts myself, it will be an ongoing project that will document how will I recover from my current financial situation.

I've already known a lot of things about credit card stuffs, and now that I am a credit card agent, with minimum of 1 credit card application a day, I want to try all other credit cards I haven't had, and tell my experience about them.

If you have a word or two about credit cards, how to manage them, how to react when their collection department nags you to pay, or a letter from a law firm is sent to you... What to do when you're already can't pay your bills, declaring bankruptcy in the Philippines, etc If you have even a tiny thought related to it, please share and I'll gladly include some acknowledgement in the ebook. ;))

regarding my six-digit indebtedness, I have already figured out a plan how to be financially free by next year. I have found the secret. Did you also read the book? or did you watch the film?

    You wanna pay it off quickly? Dont make minimum payments capital/interest ratio is ridiculous, try not to use all of your CC, as much as possible keep only one and only use it for emergency.

    btw nice job plug. lolz

    don't just swipe it anywhere and get a financial adviser.

    What to do when you're already can't pay your bills, declaring bankruptcy in the Philippines --->
    go home (in your own province) and plant kamote

    my advise to you, is to pay all your cards continuously every month. kahit na 200 lng o kng mgkano lng kaya mo. ha way, hindi magiging fraud ang kaso sau ;))

    dont worry, kng more than 3 months kang delinquent, insurance na nagbabayad sa bills mo, at hahabolin ka nlng ng yoseres law firm. siguro sa isang credit card, hindi nmn umabot sa 100k ano? dnt worry, mas prefer nila yung mga 100k up... kasi, mas malaki partida.

    marami na akong alam na delinquent sa creditcards, mga hindi na ngbabayad ;))
    hanggang sulat lng nmn at tawag, yan ang advantage sa justice system ntin dito
